    • Make sure YOU are not anxious. You may be very nervous because your child gags at certain foods or you may be worried about the variety, nutrition or growth.
    • Help your child relax before mealtimes. Meditation apps or calming music could be very helpful. Headspace offers some wonderful meditation apps both for kids and adults.
    • Create a pre-meal routine. It can involve putting away toys, washing hands, a prayer or a song. Transitions may be hard for anxious kids and a routine helps everyone get ready for a meal in a calming and predictable way.

    • Distract yourself. You can break a craving’s hold on you by distracting yourself for at least 20 minutes. Focusing on something else for a while and changing your environment interrupts the craving, and it’s easier to make a better choice.
    • Plan consistent meals and snacks. Plan your meals and snacks for the day or the week, so that you eliminate the factor of uncertainty. If you know what you will be eating throughout the day, you won’t grab junk food when hunger hits.
