Did you know that an easy way to give your body more time to focus on it’s detoxification, slimming and rejuvenation work is to actually eat more strategically during the day? One way to do that is to keep track of your portion sizes at each meal. Introduce yourself to the concept of a Buddha Bowl. A Buddha Bowl is roughly the size of your cupped hands and provides a nutrient rich portion of food. Start with one Buddha Bowl serving and eat mindfully. If you find you are still hungry, eat another half bowl portion. Proper sized meals allow more of your body’s energy to be spent on healing and repair work rather than digestion all the time. Food combining can also be helpful with portion control.

Looking for a little more Buddha Bowl guidance? I like this Buddha bowl from Flavour Design. Order a 12-ounce Baby Buddha Bowl which can hold a recommended 4 ounces of protein, 3 ounces of complex carbs and unlimited vegetables.
