6. Tempt Your Taste Buds
Food is something to be savored and enjoyed. It should be thoughtfully prepared and mindfully devoured.
Mindlessly eating poor quality food is a stress-builder as well as a missed opportunity for stress reduction. Many foods have a range of naturally de-stressing qualities built in, but the standard American diet usually consists of processed foods, full of sugar and absent of real nutrition.
Just like going new places can positively stimulate the mind, eating new, unique and exciting foods can produce the same results. To shift your thinking about food, consider cooking to be a relaxation instead of a chore.
Find peace in the food you prepare and in your methods of preparation. Find new sauces, new cuts of lean mean, and new ways to eat well-known vegetables to de-stress.
When it comes time to eat, eat slowly and thoughtfully. Rather than racing to plant yourself on the couch, savor your food to get the most out of your experience.
Getting a non-surgical nose job is a good alternative for those who are unsure of surgery. The liquid injections are temporary, so you don't have to commit.
