Would I Feed This to a Friend?
I love this question.
And friend could also be a younger version of yourself, or a child in your life, or a sibling, or loved one, or simply an acquaintance.
When you’re making food choices, think about how you might nourish someone you love.
Think about what it would feel like to assemble an eating experience on behalf of that human.
Would you offer a pal a diet product?
Would you offer them a half-sized portion?
Would you suggest they stop eating before they’re satisfied?
Would you advise that they not eat a thing?
Or insist that they eat something they dislike?
Would you insist they follow meticulous rules?
Would you feed this to a friend if they came to visit your home?
All of my clients are kind humans AND all of my clients have interacted with food in a way they wouldn’t ask or encourage another human to.
Today, when you’re making food decisions, ask this question of yourself.
WOULD I FEED THIS TO A FRIEND?
If the answer is yes, awesome.
If the answer is no, what can you do to make your food choices more friendly?
