The holiday season is upon us, and with it comes the temptation of indulgent foods and the risk of feeling sluggish and bloated. But what if you could enjoy the festivities without sacrificing your health? In this episode of 'Don't Eat Your Feelings with Mindfulbellie', certified holistic health coach Ellie Rome shares four practical tips to help you stay energized and mindful during the holidays. First up, Ellie emphasizes the importance of setting intentions.
Think about how you want to feel this holiday season and make a plan to achieve that. Next, she talks about 'up-leveling' your ingredients. You don't have to give up your favorite holiday dishes; instead, try swapping out unhealthy ingredients for better alternatives. This way, you can enjoy your meals without the guilt. Ellie also tackles the 'all or nothing' mindset that often plagues us during the holidays.
Instead of seeing one indulgent meal as a reason to throw in the towel, she suggests mindful indulgences—enjoy your treats but do so with intention and gratitude. Finally, Ellie advises planning for the day after. It's not the one big meal that derails us but the continuous overindulgence that follows. Having a plan in place can help you get back on track quickly. Tune in to this episode for more detailed advice and start enjoying a healthier, happier holiday season.
