Restoring the balance between mind, body and home is the ultimate wellness practice, in my opinion. Looking after our mind and body as a whole, rather than separately lets us feel at one with ourselves and can lead to a feeling of deep satisfaction. There are many ways in which we can restore the balance between body and mind that I will show you in this post. It can be so liberating and peaceful to feel consciously and subconsciously complete and at ease with ourselves. There are many steps you can take to achieve this balance and all are easily incorporated into your life. It can be completely life-changing.
Unhealthy Food Cravings and How to Stop Them
Hi Guys,
Today I am talking about unhealthy food cravings and how to stop them. Most of us are partial to a sweet tooth or junk food and drinks craving but there is a scientific reason behind it. Fatty and sugary foods spark a reaction in our brains. When we satisfy a craving by eating a sweet treat, there is a biochemical change in our brains.
As a survival mechanism built in through evolution, our bodies have developed so that we are drawn to fattier foods. When the body is hungry, we will crave the foods that will provide us with a fuller feeling. Cravings on the other hand, are linked to the brains reward system. We feel satisfied and rewarded while eating fatty and sugary foods. Like a drug, the cravings are established and the brain associates that craving with a feeling of satisfaction and reward when we give in to those cravings. This feeling is addictive and therefore like a drug.
