Do you ever feel like you have no control over your eating habits? Whether it be emotionally charged, out of boredom, or pure mindlessness while at the table -- overeating is something we've all done at some point.
You're not alone; your relationship with food can be tricky and challenging to navigate. One tremendous help is learning to tap into your intuition and use it to improve your relationship with food and balance your eating patterns in a way that feels tailored to you.
Our culture tends to overeat in general with larger portions than ever, but you'd be surprised how much smaller of a portion you can eat and feel satisfied. Somewhere along the way, we've been programmed to eat until we are full, instead of eating enough to satisfy our hunger and return to neutral.
Whatever reason it may be to you, there are some simple tricks you can use on a daily basis to make sure you're more mindful of your consumption and keep things at a healthy level.
A healthy metabolism is essential for many aspects of our lives, from energy levels and moods to weight control and overall health. However, when your metabolism isn't working as it should, it can lead to fatigue, difficulty with weight loss or gain, and even poor digestion.
Let’s start by understanding Metabolism- what does it do and how does it work?
Metabolism is the process by which your body converts food into energy that fuels your body. The rate at which these processes occur depends on many factors, from age to genetics to lifestyle and diet.
A faster metabolism means you burn more calories at rest, helping you lose weight or maintain a healthy weight. On the other hand, a slower metabolism means your body burns fewer calories, which can lead to weight gain and other health problems over time.
While many factors affect metabolism, and you can’t control all of these factors- there are a few key things you can do to support your metabolism and boost your metabolic rate. Incorporating certain daily habits into your routine can help boost your metabolism, improve your overall health, and increase your energy levels.
