Join us as Our presenter, Rev. Russell Elleven, DMin, board certified coach and wellness practitioner speakes on a topic that is rarely covered but always needed!

Have you ever given in to your cravings? Have you found it difficult to give up certain foods? Sometimes people rely too heavily on willpower to change their omnivorous eating behaviors to a healthy vegan lifestyle.

This presentation examines willpower and how it is not the only answer to changing important eating behaviors.

In addition to knowledge of willpower characteristics, a technique will be taught to help attendees during those times when willpower is not enough.

You will not only benefit from Dr. Elleven's presentation but you will enjoy learning about the work he is planning to bring plant based nutrition to Chicagoland congregations of all faiths.

Russell is Minister Emeritus of Westside Unitarian Universalist Church in Fort Worth, Texas. He currently serves as Executive Director of a nonprofit organization, The Genesis 1:29 Project ( http://www.genesis129.org ) which attempts to bring the message of (vegan) health to Chicagoland congregations.

Hope to see you there!
