Remember that your healthy eating habits are part of an investment in your overall self-care practices and well-being.
Consider small, realistic, and attainable goals.
Develop daily or weekly “mantras” to help motivate your efforts. For example, a daily mantra to boost your nutrition could be, “Eat something green every day!”
Think about what your body and mind need today.
Allow yourself to choose foods that are both enjoyable and nourishing for your body. Choose foods that contain fiber, protein, and healthy fats that will help you feel full, physically and mentally satisfied.
Cut down on processed foods.
Let’s face it…our standard American diet is typically rich in pro-inflammatory foods that often contain saturated fat, added sugars, and high calories. These types of foods are not rich in dietary antioxidants or vitamins and minerals, or fiber. Food that are great sources of these nutrients is vegetables and fruits, nuts and seeds, legumes, whole grains, as well as fatty fish such as salmon.
Add Fresh herbs, cinnamon, and turmeric, as these all have qualities that provide medicinal benefits for boosting your immune system.
Connect to your food.
Take time to select and/or prepare food. It can help ensure a healthy relationship with food. Whether you visit a farmers market, grow some veggies at home, or experiment with a new recipe with family or friends, investing time into connecting with food can bring us joy and happiness.
