5 Reasons why you can't stop overeating

Greetings

Our parents' generation ate to live, but in the past few years, the concept has become the opposite. Our generation has started to earn and live just to eat. In today's time, food shouldn't just fill your stomach but also should be upload-worthy. We want the food to look good, taste good, and should contain qualities of not making one fat even when consumed in bulk. Our lifestyles promote overeating which leads to obesity and a lot of other related issues. 



So let's discuss why we end up overeating even we are sure that we want to shed a few inches. 


PLEASURE

Eating at a good restaurant with friends and uploading pictures of the good-looking food feels really good, doesn't it? But that is one of the biggest reasons why we end up eating more than we want to and even more if you have a family waiting to eat dinner with you, you feel bad to refuse, so you eat just to keep them happy. Refusing to friends and family can be difficult, but just sitting with them while they eat is not a bad option, in fact, it will increase your own will power. So, please try to use NO for extra food more often, It is difficult but not impossible.



PRESSURE 

'Taste it, at least' is something that we all hear the moment we think of following a diet. This is where self-control helps. Saying NO to eating when you don't wish to is a difficult task and if you can do that, you deserve a pat on the back. 


SNOOZING EMOTIONS 

Food can be an excellent way to snooze dealing with emotions. Just eating for 5 minutes can help procrastinate dealing with sadness or depression, which is unhealthy for the body and mind both. So we should try to deal with emotions as and when they come and not snooze them with food. This will improve our state of mind and will promote a healthy balance at work, relationships, and life as a whole.



NOT BEING BUSY 

Not having enough work makes you go to the fridge again and again and again, which means every time you pay a visit to your beloved refrigerator, you end up eating biscuits or some other snack. So please spend some time to find a hobby for yourself, it will definitely help your health and boost your resume too. 



REWARD 

Chocolates or candies are a common way of rewarding children, I am sure you remember working extra hard for chocolate. This is a habit we developed over time and didn't stop actually. Even as grown-ups we haven't stopped rewarding ourselves with food. This is something that all adults need to work on. Instead of  "I've had a rough day, let me treat myself with a pizza" we can turn it into "The rough cannot stop my workout routine" will surely help. It's the attitude we need to work on. 


We can overcome this problem by simply refraining from doing the above-discussed list.


Power to you :)


HAPPY LIVING 💝

3 DAY JUICE FAST EXPERIENCE WITH SATVIC MOVEMENT

 Greetings 🌺 Satvic Movement  is a platform that works to spread awareness on fasting regularly, based on the scriptures that were written way before our imagination, but are forgotten now. These scriptures were written based on scientific principles that we are still trying to figure out.

 Greetings 🌻 Lockdown has been tough on many people, some got extremely busy with work from home, and others got way too much free time in their hands, especially students.

HOW TO ENJOY WORK

  Greetings 🌴 A possible reason that you are here is that you recently faced a failure and after introspecting you've realized the need to put in more effort into your work. In that case, good job! Everyone puts in efforts for things they want and need. Failure is a common and important part of our lives for character building. Efforts to achieve the goal should be fulfilling and should make us happy not miserable.  So let us learn some basic yet forgotten methods towards the art of putting efforts with joy 1. WORK WITH DETERMINATION TO SUCCEED, NOT FEAR OF FAILURE This is going to sound very confusing but most of us function because of the fear of failure and not because of our passion. Most of us don't even reach the stage of starting because of this fear.  A conscious effort towards that mindset will help us be calm in situations, favorable or unfavorable. 2. BEING CAREFUL WITH OUR WORDS  We like it or not, but giving voice to negativity gives it power. Talking a...
