would say entering any Xmas dinner with a mindful and conscious attitude can significantly preempt your over-indulgence. I have been exchanging with Elena about how social cohesion is an important marker in stress reduction and feeling connected during the holidays, hence having less risks to over-indulge with any sort of consumption.<\/p>\n<p>One thing which may stir you away from feeling mindful and connected with your meal is alcohol. Alcohol is all too present in the celebration of Xmas, and if one is uncareful in moderating your limits it is too easy to lose that lucidity which is your cognitive control, in general. If one does choose to consume alcohol during the dinner, a good trick to do is sipping your glass infrequently. That way, it won&#8217;t be refilled as often. Secondly, you can always space your alcohol consumption with a glass of water in between. Your liver will be most thankful and so will your head the next day.<\/p>\n<p>It is not easy to moderate your indulgence over Xmas when you are faced with a deluge of tempting food. One preempting strategy could be to sift through the options which are low carb (meats and vegetables) and those which are high carbs (xmas cake, sweets, pastries, desserts) and just focus as much as you can on low carb items. This way your energy won\u2019t crash half way through the day, and your weight gain will be less.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, after the heavy eating of Xmas, a nice way to offset the burden of the meal metabolically is to do a good 15 min walk after the meal. This will help with the digestion of the food plus you\u2019ll feel more energised when you relax back at home after your walk.<\/p>\n<p><em>Miles Price is <\/em><em>is a Certified Clinical Nutritionist and Functional Medicine Practitioner <\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"vc_empty_space\"   style=\"height: 32px\"><span class=\"vc_empty_space_inner\"><\/span><\/div>\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Psychological_Support\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><strong>Psychological Support\u00a0 \u00a0<\/strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7261\" src=\"https:\/\/lifeclinic.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/unsure-sign-emotional-300x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"43\" height=\"43\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lifeclinic.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/unsure-sign-emotional-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/lifeclinic.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/unsure-sign-emotional-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/lifeclinic.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/unsure-sign-emotional-12x12.png 12w, https:\/\/lifeclinic.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/unsure-sign-emotional.png 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 43px) 100vw, 43px\" \/><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"vc_empty_space\"   style=\"height: 32px\"><span class=\"vc_empty_space_inner\"><\/span><\/div>\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<p><strong>Learning to identify unique hunger cues and satiety levels is essential in regulating intuitive eating<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Both Miles and myself agree that some indulgence during the holidays could be a healthy marker of a flexible attitude around food. It is often the rigid and restrictive eating leading up to holidays which can eclipse in a hard to stop binge-eating and out-of-control eating patterns.<\/p>\n<p>This is a common conflict I see with patients suffering from disordered eating patterns and who often start negotiating their holiday meals with a skewed body-image and a history of irregular eating. Chronic dieting can lead to psychological and physiological changes which can disrupt our natural barometer to eat intuitively. Many people see themselves fasting and dieting their way leading up to the New Years Eve or a given Xmas party, only to find themselves losing control with food and alcohol consumption soon after. These are very real and damaging experiences that people with disordered eating and drinking behaviours go through.<\/p>\n<p>Eating regulation towards a more intuitive relationship with food often requires a process of gentle and systematic re-learning of unhealthy eating patterns. In fact, it could be quite challenging to suddenly become mindful with your plate at a Xmas dinner party! Therefore, for this season, I would invite you to meet any transgressions or overindulgence with food as an opportunity to practice self-acceptance.<\/p>\n<p><em>Elena Kisel is a Registered Counsellor and Clinical Hypnotherapist specialising in treatment of Addictions, Anxiety and Eating Behaviour Disorders<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So how can we prepare ourselves for a more mindful Xmas meal?
