Since this is the season of sharing gifts and sharing recipes, it seemed like the perfect time to share a comparison of portions during this challenging month of eating temptations.
Awareness works! The simple act of being mindful can have a very positive effect on your eating habits during the holidays. Just thinking about making healthier choices and acknowledging you want to truly create and keep resolutions, will effect your choices. The science of getting ready to get ready really works. If you want to try a challenge for yourself, write a goal in the form of a question and write 20 answers. Why 20?, your brain loves to solve problems and the first few answers always come very easy. When you stretch yourself to come up with not just 5 or 10 answers, but 20, you awaken creative areas in the brain and your answers begin to serve your goal in your question.
For example,
What are some of the ways I can make more healthy food choices through this holiday season that will lead to better future daily habits?
Now answer 20 times and you will be amazed at how your mind will help you when your tempted!
Have a happy healthy holiday season...and lots of fun!
