Healthy Monday: Manage Your Mantra

Do you feel that junk food is a forbidden, guilty pleasure?

Would you still be tempted if you thought of it as fat-laden, overly processed, or disease-promoting?

Perhaps if we thought of whole foods as nutritious and tasty – rather than “healthy” or “weird” – we would be inclined to eat more of them.
The psychology surrounding food can have a huge sway on our preferences!
Reconsider your food beliefs this week. Instead of thinking “that’s pretty good… for a healthy food” enjoy the flavors and think about the nutrients you’re getting.
Instead of saying “I can’t try that…” have at least one bite!
