The attractive, little bracelet is cleverly composed of silvery, block-letter "baby beads"spelling out "Am I Hungry?" and the rest of the bracelet is made up of semi-precious gemstone beads, including many beads from Africa. No two bracelets are exactly alike. Our was brown and silver as in the photo, but there is also a purple version, and a black version that would be appropriate for men. As a bonus, each bracelet comes with a Am I Hungry?® Tips wallet card *see some mindful eating tips at the bottom of this post.

TIPS: Here are some tips from Dr. May to help you eat more mindfully:

· Recognize whether you’re hungry before you start eating. Sometimes “I want a brownie” really means “I want a break.”

· Know what hunger feels like. Hunger is a physical feeling that usually comes on gradually – perhaps an empty or hollow feeling below your rib cage, stomach pangs or growling or symptoms of a falling blood sugar level such as low energy, difficulty concentrating, irritability. More extreme hunger can cause shakiness and headache.

· When a craving doesn’t come from hunger, eating will never satisfy it. There are other things to do besides eat. Take a break, take a walk, call a friend, or Subscribe to the Advice Sisters Blog!
