Key Takeaways

1. What is Intuitive Eating?

• Developed about 30 years ago, intuitive eating helps women listen to their bodies and eat what they need, aligning with God’s character. It’s a dietician-created approach based on body cues and includes 10 principles to guide you.

Tips for Intuitive Eating:

• Separate emotional eating from intuitive eating by processing emotions and using other tools rather than food to cope.
• Honor your body’s hunger cues and cravings, and embrace gentle nutrition.

Practical Advice:

• Children naturally practice intuitive eating by stopping when they’re full; adults can learn from this behavior.
• Mindfulness is key, as it helps change your palette to appreciate real foods and honor your hunger cues.
