Lesson Overview

21.15 – Nutrition and Emotional Regulation Food doesn’t just fuel your body—it influences your mood, focus, and emotional balance. Skipping meals or eating too much sugar can cause mood swings, fatigue, and irritability. Balanced meals with protein, fiber, and healthy fats keep blood sugar steady and your brain alert. Hydration is equally vital since even mild dehydration can mimic anxiety. Mindful eating means noticing how certain foods make you feel rather than judging your choices. Regular nourishment signals your body that it’s cared for, reducing internal stress. Over time, small nutritional habits build a stronger foundation for emotional resilience. When your body feels supported, your thoughts become clearer and your reactions calmer. Eating well is an act of self-respect and prevention, not perfection. Consistency matters more than rules, and every balanced bite helps your mind stay steady.
