CR Begay New this fall to Warm Springs OSU Extension programming is the mindful eating, active living work- shop series called Am I Hungry? This healthy living series focuses on all the factors that go into the decisions we make around our food intake, with a recognition that in many cases, “it’s not about the food.” Eating well to fuel your active life is the goal, and if some weight loss happens along the way—it will, more than likely—that is just icing on the cake! The next session is Monday, Oct. 17, at 5:30 p.m., and will continue another six weeks thereafter. Cost for the entire 8-week series is $10, and includes all materials. This series is a $400 value, and will be led by Beth Ann Beamer, RN, BSN, licensed Am I Hungr y facilitator and Extension FCH fac- ulty. Space is limited, so please call 541-553-3535 to pre-register.
