The holiday season can bring up some tough stuff with eating and conversations about food.

But holiday meals are meant to be about gratitude, traditions, and enjoying time with others.

Here’s some tips on how to eat intuitively with ease during this time of year:

🍁 Decide how you want to feel today, and then plan to eat in a way that honors your choice. Be mindful of your hunger, fullness, and satisfaction cues as the day goes on.

🍁 If you’ll be with others who discuss diets or body image in a way that makes you uncomfortable, consider ways you can address this without stress.

🍁 Remember that one day of eating will not change your body shape or health. So enjoy the day!

If the idea of Halloween candy or holiday treats stresses you, it may be because you are mentally or physically restricting food.

Giving yourself unconditional permission to eat candy anytime can remove the idea that these treats are “special.”

Want to eat candy? Sure, you can! It’s just candy, no big deal. Really. And you can have it anytime you’d like!

This can be a great first step towards ditching food rules and eating more intuitively. Embracing all foods can get you on the path to eating in a balanced, satisfying way that will support your health.

Food is just food - there are no “good” or “bad” foods.

True, nutrition IS important, and there are some big nutrient differences in the foods we eat.

BUT: that doesn’t mean we need to embrace some foods and hate on other foods. Labeling food as “good” or “bad” creates a strict set of eating rules that are hard to maintain.

And what can that all-or-nothing thinking cause? Food guilt, food obsession, self-judgment and shame spiral 👎

🧩 Make food neutral, and work towards shedding those unnecessary food rules. I promise it’ll pay off when you’re no longer feeling guilty about food!

Diets have a way of taking up a lot of our space and energy, right?

It’s a bit complicated, but it can be good to reflect on the pros and cons of dieting experiences. For example:

❓ Have you missed out on social functions because you were dieting, or afraid of others judging your body or food choices?

❓ Aside from the thought of weight loss, could you identify anything you enjoyed about the diet or dieting process?

Intuitive Eating is a framework for eating that allows curiosity without judgment to find answers to these questions. It encourages enjoyment of eating, while paying attention to physical sensations and behaviors associated with eating.
