Your body is a temple, but only if you treat it as one. – Astrid Alauda
Dear Body,
We are going to improve our communication skills.
I promise to feed you when you are hungry, using foods that satisfy us emotionally as well as physically.
I promise to give you a large variety of interesting foods and flavors.
I promise to check in with you often to make sure you have plenty of rest and water.
I promise to spend time with you, doing nothing but listening.
In return, I trust that you will
-
Give me signals that I will betterĀ interpret as hunger and fullness
-
Adjust hunger signals to match physical needs as my size and metabolism change
-
Continue to give me cravings to guide me in choosing foods
