Mindful Eating Is a Practice, Not a Plan
Mindful eating isn't a quick fix or something you finish; it's something you return to. A 2026 randomized trial found that 8 weeks of mindful eating practice reduced emotional eating more than standard nutrition education, with changes lasting a month later. Registered dietitian Rebecca Lindberg shares simple ways to make it a practice.
Who's at Your Table Matters, Too
Eating with others may benefit both body and mind. A 2026 Science Advances study found that adults' blood sugar rose less and recovered faster after the same carbohydrate meal when they ate with a close companion rather than alone. A 2026 Scientific Reports study using Gallup data from 142 countries linked sharing meals with greater well-being, on par with income. Registered dietitian Rebecca Lindberg suggests pausing before the holidays to decide how you want to feel, keeping traditions that still fit, and letting go of perfection so there's more room for connection.
