Interoception is the body’s ability to sense its internal cues, such as hunger and fullness, and plays a huge part in enabling the Eatiful Satiety Loop - the process by which you can feel more satisfied and enjoy food more when you’re eating the right amount of food for your body. It’s possible to feel greater satiety when you eat less, if you eat it slowly and enjoyably, and by eating in this way, you can actively choose to eat less food - and feel great about it.
