Chances are that you have beliefs in your mind about what foods are “good” and what foods are “bad.”
You’ve probably heard it all:
“Carbs will make you gain weight”
“Sugar is your enemy, don’t eat any”
“You can’t have a treat, they’re bad for you and it’s not a cheat day”
Have you ever realized that just the unconscious thoughts of labeling foods this way might be destructive to your relationship with food?
The moment you’ve labeled food as “bad”, you begin to fear it. It takes up more of your mental space as you spend more time thinking about it. Labeling food as “bad” inherently puts it on a pedestal.
We have to feel more in power when it comes to food and lessens the power that food has over us. We will get to decide what we want to eat and how much based on how it makes us feel…not because of moral motives.
This serves as a reminder that you are in control of your food choices and that the food doesn’t control you.
I know this isn’t easy work and sometimes it may feel easier to go back and follow rigid diet rules. The problem is – while it seems simpler to see things in black and white… it is often not sustainable or balanced.
Let’s learn how to stop labeling food together in this podcast.
