A reminder for the weekend...

Today and over the weekend, can you try to Pause before eating.
Our reaction to stress or anxiety can be to quickly reach for
food to escape the discomfort. Instead can you pause just before
you reach for food, and check in with yourself, ‘am I really
hungry?’ ‘Is this what I really need right now?’ Don’t judge
yourself. Just be curious and watch. Ask yourself, ‘Is this the
best way to take care of myself? If I eat how will I feel
afterwards?’ This means bringing consciousness and awareness to
your eating. It means staying with yourself in the present
moment instead of escaping into food.

Finding the pause really good, when I remember! It takes so much
practice, but I guess that's to be expected after years of
mindless eating. I think I need to slow down in general.

If I get off track (as often happens at the weekend!), I do not
berate myself anymore. As soon as I can, I get back on track.
It's ok to make mistakes,

I've been slowing down more. I've been told that I'm like
roadrunner (remember the cartoon), and when I'm rushed I pick
and eat more. So I've been slowing down more and I' more
connected to myself and pausing more and choosing not to eat.
Long may it last!

I find it so hard to remember to pause sometimes. It's only
later on that I think, "damn, completely forgot". Oh well, next
time!

Must remember to leave food behind on my plate. I think I'm part
of the Clean Your Plate Club!
