Over the last few weeks I’ve been having a lot of people tell me that despite their best efforts, they can’t seem to kick their sweet tooth. They’ll go a few hours, maybe even a day and then they’ll see cake or candy and they just have to have it.
Sound familiar? I’ve been there too….as I’ve mentioned before, sweets and caffeine have been my biggest struggles. Both of which are perfectly fine in moderation….trouble is they are both highly addictive so it’s easy to slip into a pattern of just having way too much.
Here’s the thing….you don’t have to kick your sweet tooth…you just have to find a way to satisfy it in a healthy way.
It’s necessary to satisfy your desire for “sweet” taste. In Ayurveda they say it’s essential to have a varied diet that provides you with each flavor profile in order to stay balanced.
So I’m gonna share my personal secret weapon against sugar addiction.
It’s very satisfying and it works every time…it’s BERRIES! My daughter and I both have food allergies as well so when it comes to dessert when we’re out to dinner we usually can’t have anything on the menu…BUT, most every restaurant does have berries on hand.
So…this week in an effort to kick that sweet tooth I recommend you buy yourself some organic berries and have them around for whenever you want something sweet. And I guarantee that after doing this for a few months, when you go back to the unhealthy versions of sweet, like snickers or something it will taste unbearably sweet to you. You literally will feel like you can’t finish it because it’s way to sweet.
Also…one more super important thing to mention is that often when we’re addicted to sweets, it’s because we’re really craving some sweet in life. Sometimes all we need is a really inspiring and uplifting conversation with a friend, or some time to do something that we love.
Take both of these ideas with you this week and let me know how it goes, ok?
