When you "eat healthy", do you simply follow a checklist of rules and strategies and hope for the best? Hopefully not! If being healthy is something that you want to be a lifestyle and last forever, then you need to become more intuitive.

Intuitive Eating (and Training) means beginning with a set of healthy guidelines, but then using your own wisdom and discernment to ultimately guide your food and exercise choices. 

When you eat and train, ask yourself these questions: 

• Does this meal/workout comply with the SM healthy guidelines?
• Is there anything that I can change, add, or take away to make it better for my body?
• How will this food/beverage make me feel in about 30 minutes? Hungry still? Stuffed? Sugared out? Lethargic?
• Will I feel better if I just eat less or more of it?
• Will I feel better if I change this workout somehow or do something a little different today?
• Will this meal/workout be helping or hindering me from reaching my goals?

Don’t just blindly follow rules, but begin to own your journey, feel it in a deeper way, look for insights and clues, and start to make choices that are wise and mature.
