Intuitive eating might sound like a dietary gimmick, but it's actually a powerful eating paradigm that prioritises listening to your body's innate intelligence.Doing this actually tells you everything you need to know about what your body desires and needs when it comes to food, IF you'll just tune in and listen.By giving your body exactly what it requires each day, you'll be eating in a much more customised way that deeply nourishes you and your cells and improves your overall health and wellbeing.In fact, by learning to tune in better to your body's needs, you'll become happier and less anxious too. If your relationship with food is not necessarily a healthy one or if you wish you were better at making consistently healthier choices, it may require some reframing and mindset adjustments to break free of the subconscious "shackles" that have negatively impacted your dietary choices in the past.When you're consciously connected to what you eat, it's a lot easier to develop a healthy long term relationship with food, which greatly influences both your emotional and physical wellbeing.Here we reveal exactly what is meant by intuitive eating and explain how it can truly change your life and your relationship with food.For more information and all of your self care needs, visit us at www.tolmanselfcare.com
