]]>Start becoming aware of when you are feeling an emotion and when you reach for your favorite food. You will notice some patterns. Write them down so you can address and start adopting healthier habits when an emotion arises.
One of the main reasons people eat for emotional reasons is because they are disorganized with their meals and snacks. If you are full and satiated from your meals you will be less likely to reach for food when an emotion arises.
When an emotion arises, instead of being rash and reaching into the cookie jar, take a second and meditate or deep breath and calm those feelings down!
If you did reach for the cake when you were feeling angry or stressed, make time for the food, taste it, enjoy it, and move on. You will be less likely to overeat and feel bad after.

]]>Anxiety and stress affect us all and everyone is searching for a way to de-stress and calm their minds. Adding meditation to your daily habits can be a great solution. But there is more to sitting in a quiet room and breathing to get the benefits of meditation. There is a skill to successfully meditate but it takes practice. You won’t master it in one day but with a regular routine, you will be able to get better and better and see the benefits of a calm mind.
In the beginning, you will be distracted through your meditation practice with not a lot of awareness, but with the time you will be more aware and less distracted.
One of the main problems with meditating is judging oneself when you get distracted, which in turn creates more thinking. Take away the judgment and focus on seeing your thoughts and then letting it go and go back to your meditation.
You will never be able to get rid of your thoughts altogether and this isn’t what meditation is all about. You want thoughts to come and go and when they do come to accept them.
