Can you truly transform your eating habits by simply paying more attention to your food? Join me, Courtney, on this enlightening episode of Moving Through Midlife, as I sit down with Chef James Barry, the esteemed private chef and visionary behind Eat Pluck, to uncover the secrets of mindful eating. Chef Barry brings to light the contrast between our modern, often confusing dietary landscape and the wisdom of our ancestors. We discuss how understanding and reconnecting with our body's natural cues can lead to significantly better health outcomes, particularly during the critical transitions of midlife.

Chef Barry and I explore the sensory disconnection many of us face due to the overwhelming choices in today's grocery stores and the prevalence of processed foods. Imagine tuning into the subtle signals your body gives you, down to physical responses like a burp or the difficulty in opening a jar, to guide your food choices. By appreciating the natural textures and colors of whole foods, and relearning how to listen to our bodies, we can make more mindful and healthful choices even before we set foot in a store. We also share practical advice on incorporating nutrient-dense foods like root vegetables and organ meats into your diet, making these healthier options more accessible and enjoyable.

Finally, we delve into the art of home cooking, emphasizing the importance of visual appeal, seasoning, and creating a pleasant dining environment. Chef Barry offers tips on making meals more attractive and flavorful, including the use of umami to enhance the taste of organ-based seasonings like Pluck. We discuss the broader implications of mindful eating, from its impact on blood sugar levels to sustainable practices that honor the entire animal. This episode is packed with actionable insights to help you embrace a more mindful, healthful approach to eating, and navigate midlife with grace and vitality.
