Eating when under stress, your body cannot properly digest food & it will be stored as fat, no matter how healthy the meal. Stress turns off digestion. You can trick the brain into thinking you are relaxed & your body will turn on digestion & not store the meal as fat. It’s as easy as breathing! Before eating, breathe in for a count of 5, hold that breath for a count of 5 and then exhale for 7-do ten times.
