🌿 Wellness Wednesday Tip #4 🌿

Eat Without Your Phone
(Presence is a nutrient.)

Your body doesn’t just digest food — it digests experience.

Every time you eat distracted — scrolling, replying, consuming more than just your meal — your nervous system stays in fight-or-flight.
That means your body can’t break down nutrients efficiently, regulate hormones, or truly rest.

Here’s the tip:
Put your phone away during meals.
No scrolling. No emails. No content.
Just you. Your food. Your breath.

Even one meal per day eaten in presence can transform how your body feels and functions.

Why it matters:

• Supports parasympathetic activation (rest + digest)

• Improves nutrient absorption

• Reduces bloating and overeating

• Balances blood sugar and insulin response

• Enhances food satisfaction and emotional regulation

It’s not just what you eat — it’s how you receive it.

Try it today:
Choose one meal. Put the phone away.
Breathe. Chew. Taste. Slow down.
Let your meal be a meditation.

Reflection:
What else in your life might change if you chose to be fully here for it?

Yours in wellness,
