Self-Help Tip #50: Treat Yourself To A Favorite Food

         

PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT Medical advice. Please read disclaimers.

“You are what you eat - so don't be fast, cheap, easy, or fake.” 

I'll always remember when my dear friend Matylda (who is from Europe) called STRAWBERRIES a "treat"! Sadly that sounded a bit foreign to me at the time. Like many children from the U.S., I had grown up yearning for candy, cookies, donuts, and cake. But are those sugary boosts truly worthy of being "favorite"?

Or, can we retrain ourselves to:

"Allowing yourself to enjoy food [just] for the joy of it - promotes a healthy attitude toward consumption in general and counteracts feelings of deprivation (which can lead to nutritional sabotage)."

When next eating your "favorite food," try to: 

  • Establish a grateful connection
  • Stay present
  • Savor every bite, mindfully
  • Stop when you're full

 

Buon Appetito!
