The season of indulgence is upon us! Let's focus on a feast for the senses with mindful eating!
Mindful eating is a skill that takes time and patience to develop. Keep it going if you find it difficult at first. As you practice, you'll eventually feel more empowered around food, learn to listen to hunger cues, and eat the quantity that helps you feel vibrant!
Here are six simple tips to practice for a more pleasurable, nourishing holiday season:
Savor Every Morsel: Take it slow. Sip, chew, taste, smell, and savor the flavors. Trust us; it's worth the wait. And it will help with digestion!
Portion Patrol: Dish out smaller portions and listen to your body. Take seconds only if you're genuinely hungry. It's the art of enjoying without overdoing it.
Taste the Rainbow: Fill your plate with colorful choices. Veggies, fruits, and a sprinkle of variety can make your meal tasty and nourishing.
Mindful Moments: Engage in conversation, appreciate the ambiance, and stay present while eating. Enjoy the company as much as the food.
Treat Yourself, Don't Cheat Yourself: It’s okay to enjoy treats! Choose your favorites and relish them mindfully. Remember, it’s about balance, not restriction. Sweets are part of the festivities!
Hydration Breaks: Sip water between bites. It not only keeps you hydrated but also helps you gauge true hunger.
Cheers to happy and mindful feasting!✨
