       A practices approach to understanding 
                  [eating] behaviours
      •  “A practice . . . is a routinised type of behaviour which consists of 
         several elements, interconnected to one another: forms of bodily 
         activities, forms of mental activities, things and their use, a 
         background knowledge in the form of understanding, knowhow, 
         states of emotion and motivational knowledge” (Reckwitz, 2002: 
         249–50)
      •  Practices encompass three domains (Warde 2005):
         – The people who shape/ perform practices
         – The available resources
         – The meaning given to the practice
      •  Individuals can be viewed as ‘carriers of practices’ (Warde
         2005) – one part of the jigsaw puzzle

                                        [eating] behaviours
                                                        •    Practice frameworks account for the 
                                                             entangled nature of relational events,

                                                             context for the ‘doings and sayings’ 
                                                             (Schatzki 1996) of everyday life
