To practise intuitive eating, one must learn to tune in to their bodies' signals of fullness and hunger.
Focus on the flavours, textures, and aromas of traditional meals like dal-chawal or roti-sabzi.
Prepare nutritious snacks like fruits or nuts to satisfy hunger between meals.
Encourage everyone to eat slowly and stop eating when they feel comfortably full.
Avoid discussing weight loss diets and instead, celebrate nutritious home-cooked meals.
Add diverse Indian foods, such as legumes, grains, vegetables, and fruits, to ensure balanced nutrition.
Allow for occasional treats like homemade sweets, acknowledging and satisfying cravings.
Make mealtimes a stress-free family bonding experience, encouraging open conversation about food preferences and feelings.
