The key to taking back control of your relationship with food during menopause isn’t about restriction or willpower, but about achieving a calmer, more balanced relationship with food.
Imagine viewing that “forbidden” ice cream as simply “ice cream in the freezer.” It sounds good, but you don’t have to have it. By detaching the drama from food, you weaken the urge to overindulge.
In this episode, I will talk about the concept of equanimity and how this over two thousand year old Buddhist practice can help you achieve food freedom. Equanimity is a state of “mental calmness and composure, especially in difficult situations.” I will explain how equanimity can be applied to food choices, particularly those that trigger emotional eating.
This week, try equanimity with food! Pick a food item that triggers urges, challenge your thoughts by acknowledging it neutrally, and remind yourself that you have a choice. Listen in and learn how equanimity can transform your relationship with food during menopause.
Remember, you are not at the mercy of your urges. By practicing equanimity, you can take back control and create a peaceful, balanced approach to food!
