#TIPTUESDAY ✦ The 90-Second Pause That Changes Cravings
If cravings feel like they come out of nowhere, here’s the part most advice skips. ➡️The problem: Most women assume a craving means “I want this food.” But when a craving hits, it’s usually because something just triggered it, like an emotion, a thought, or a time-of-day pattern, not because your body suddenly needs that food. 💥For a lot of women, that trigger is simply: “It’s that time of day (or evening).” ➡️The tip: Before deciding anything, give yourself 90 seconds. ⏱️ Not to resist or talk yourself out of it. Just to notice. Ask yourself: ✅️What just happened? ✅️What am I feeling right now? ✅️Is this familiar for this time of day? That short pause builds awareness. And awareness, NOT WILLPOWER, is what creates choice. ➡️Why this works: When you stop treating cravings like emergencies and start seeing them as information, they lose a lot of their power. You do NOT have to win the moment. You just have to SEE it.
