Show Notes: The most beneficial diet for adolescent girls includes social-emotional and mental health items, not calories. Perhaps there is a different, healthier kind of diet plan that would better suit the developmental and social-emotional needs of girls in grade school on up. Here are some items girls may want to consider giving up = mental health diet Fitting in Move on from toxic friends Non-verbal relationship aggressions Caring what other people think Talking about others behind their backs & spreading rumors Good Girl conditioning Comparing themselves to peers and online people Restricting social media Old, negative beliefs about themselves Catching themselves when ruminating & switching their thoughts Making decisions based on pleasing or not disappointing others Let go of all the excuses for why they don’t practice regular self-care Instead of focusing on dieting to look hot in their bathing suit this school year, girls would do better to let go of the unhealthy patterns in the 12 points above. They would feel more content, confident, relaxed, fulfilled, powerful, and happy.
