| Holidays Without Overindulgence.
Christmas and New Year's Eve are just around the corner, bringing with them the annual challenges of "overindulgence".

Holidays are sometimes also "the big feast" ... the potato salad at your parents' and the gingerbread at grandma's ... let me share two tips with you on how to enjoy the festive season with delicious food but without a heavy stomach.

The rule of thumb
No matter what you eat as a main course, two loosely closed fists make up one portion. Your fists, to be precise.
You only need one portion per meal, even if it's delicious.

Savor, don't overeat
The cookie crunches in your mouth ... the flavor explodes, and the happiness hormones flood your body. Wonderful.
Enjoy this moment consciously and slowly. Then a few cookies will suffice, and you won't need the entire tin.

Bonus: Wine and Co.
Wine and other alcoholic beverages are often part of the menu. This is usually not a problem as a treat. But please pay attention to balance.
For every glass of wine, you need a glass of water. For every "nightcap," it should be one or two glasses.
Alcohol has the unfortunate property of depleting minerals in the body and significantly slowing down metabolism. Water is a small magic remedy here.



If you follow these two (and a half) rules, nothing stands in the way of enjoyment and a few peaceful days.

Wishing you and your loved ones a peaceful Christmas season. Best regards,
Stephan
