Not just food.
Thoughts. Media. Conversations. Habits.
When you constantly take in stress, comparison, negativity, or chaos, your nervous system learns that as normal. You start craving more of it, even when it does not feel good.
The opposite is also true.
When you consume things that are grounding, honest, and life giving, your mind and body begin to want more of that too.
Awareness is the first shift.
Here are three simple ways to start paying attention and changing things for the better.
DO A DAILY INTAKE CHECK
At the end of the day, ask yourself what did I scroll, listen to, watch, or dwell on the most. No judgment. Just notice patterns.
SWAP…NOT ELIMINATE
You do not have to cut everything out. Try replacing one thing. One account. One playlist. One habit. Small changes still matter.
PAY ATTENTION TO HOW YOU FEEL AFTER
Notice what leaves you anxious, numb, or drained. Notice what helps you feel calmer, clearer, or more yourself. Let your body guide the next choice.
Change usually starts with noticing.
Cravings follow what we repeatedly feed.
What are you feeding that you might want to change?
