Have you been able to successfully create your own structured eating patterns, and do you see chaotic eating among your clients? I'm sure it's very helpful to make the link between disorganized living and disorganized eating for them. Take care, Nancy Hi Ariane,

I'm so happy to see so much more attention being paid to this! Organizing a food routine is CRITICAL to good health and reduced stress. As a professional organizer whose parents did not provide structured meals, I've had to struggle all my life to create my own. Brava to you for bringing up the connection between disorganization and disordered eating!!! What a wonderful article! I’m so happy to see so much more attention being paid to this!

You are absolutely right. The combination of structure, in the form of regular meals and snacks, and shared family meals is unbeatable. There is a very large body of literature on the value of the family meal, showing that kids who grow up with this tradition tend to have fewer body image and eating problems, make healthier food choices as adults, and tend to be better protected from problems such as addiction. Such simple habits and rituals result in lifelong rewards. Take care, Nancy Dear John,

I have to say what an interesting subject. You've really hit the nail on the head with this one! When I was a kid, my family ate meals like clockwork when my father came home from work (he was hungry!) The kitchen was then closed for the night, except for some snacking around 8pm. But this mealtime, over 18 years, really taught me the value of structure... and of course the value of family sharing at the table. Boy those were wild times! - John Nancy,
