🧘‍♀️Quick breath work before getting out of bed. ⁣
When we wake up we send out minds and thoughts straight into our busy to-do lists, this heightens our stress levels which will lead to cravings later in the day. Starting with a 2-5 min breathing exercise will let you start your day feeling calmer and less likely to face plant into a bag of cookies later in the day. ⁣
⁣
🧘‍♀️Be mindful during the day ⁣
Practice mindful eating, be present when you speak to friends and family, check-in with how you are feeling on a regular basis. Being mindful with how you are feeling will often help you overcome the urge to overeat.⁣
⁣
🧘‍♀️Attend a yoga class after work
This will help you decompress your stresses from the day, making you more tolerable to your emotions and your body

⁣
🧘‍♀️Short meditation before bed ⁣
Set yourself up for a good night’s rest with 5-15 min of meditation and journaling before going to sleep. This will help calm your mind and understand where you might have been triggered during the day. Switch on some music or find a guided meditation that will get your body and mind into a state off rest. Body scan meditations can be very useful to release self-judgment. ⁣
