What it Truly Looks Like to Have a Healthy Relationship with Food

When you practice intuitive eating and eat the salad because it truly sounds good to you and not because a diet told you to👏To me, a small part of my healthy relationship with food means I can eat foods I love, even if they aren’t ”healthy” or nutrient-rich, and not feel a single ounce of guilt for it anymore 😌 and it also means I can eat those ”healthy"/nutrient-rich foods (like a satisfying salad) because I truly enjoy them, not because a diet told me to.Because since I’ve reframed my mindset around food, I know that a healthy relationship with food means enjoying both fun foods that make my tastebuds feel good and those nutrient-rich foods that make me feel good physically!

A healthy relationship with food can also look like:

✨ Going out to eat with friends and not letting what others order around you influence what you pick or how much you eat✨ Eating a piece of cake that’s offered to you at work because it really sounds good to you and not feeling guilty or like you have to work it off after you finish it OR being able to deny that piece of cake that’s offered to you because it doesn’t sound that great to you at the time✨ Taking into consideration what feels right to you and your body in the moment when it comes to foodAnd while a healthy relationship with food will likely look different for everyone, overall, it’s one that doesn’t take up all of your time and thoughts, one that doesn’t cause you stress, and one that brings you joy and satisfaction from almost all of your food experiences ❤️So tell me, what does a healthy relationship with food look like for you?Disclaimer: If you purchase products through links posted on this site, I may earn money through affiliate partners, however, all opinions on products are genuine.
