The Importance of an End-of-Meal Ritual

Implementing an end-of-meal ritual is beneficial for transitioning from eating to other activities. This ritual helps reduce the mental negotiations that often occur after meals, such as deciding whether to eat more. Specific practices can include simple actions like turning off the kitchen light or filling in a habit tracker, which signal that the meal has concluded. Such rituals create a sense of closure, making it easier for individuals to move on without the impulse to continue eating.
