What's for dinner?
And lunch.
And breakfast.
Do those words just make you cringe?
Our mindset gets stuck in stress mode, so meal planning meltdowns are inevitable.
Now, while I can't magically wave my wand around so everyone can go back to "normal", we can interrupt this self-defeating mindset with a change in our patterns.
Three steps to interrupt that stress pattern:
1. Freeze and flip your negative thoughts about food chores. Remind yourself of the heroic good you are doing for your body & your family's health.
2. Figure out a rhythm that everyone can follow + help with (if it's pizza night, have your partner order and your kids make the salad or make a veggie platter)
3. Fight for good food memories. Creating positive experiences, pleasurable ones is key for a brain that is feeling more stress- and good food can help heal that!
Are you struggling to plan those healthier rhythms for yourself?
