In this episode I talk about developing a practice of selective ignoring of thoughts to overeat rather than giving them negative attention.
The practice of selective ignoring is a weight loss superpower that requires:
1. Awareness
2. Intentional decision making (boundaries)
3. Detaching your attention and energy from the thought and a shift of attention toward something you DO want.
I think selective ignoring is one of the most underused skills in ANY habit change. I’ve used it professionally, as a parent, and with all my goals. When you get good at ignoring what’s not needed and relentlessly focus on what is, weight loss feels easier and takes less time.
