Dr. Susan Albers: 10 Ways To Eat Mindfully During The Holidays

Good food can be hard to turn down this time of year. Respond rather than react to thoughts that urge you to eat whenever you see something yummy.

This can help you cut down on mindless picking and acting on your first impulse. If you still want it, great, have a small portion.
