The 80 - 20 Rule

What is the 80/20 rule?

How can you lean in to the 80/20 approach for nutrition and other aspects of overall health?

The 80/20 rule of nutrition promotes a balanced approach to eating by focusing on nutritious foods 80% of the time and allowing for indulgence 20% of the time. This flexible strategy encourages a sustainable lifestyle rather than restrictive dieting, making it easier to maintain healthy habits long-term. We explore practical tips for implementing this rule, such as meal planning with whole foods, lean proteins, and vegetables, while enjoying treats in moderation. The 80/20 rule also helps eliminate guilt and shame associated with occasional indulgences, fostering a healthier relationship with food.

Beyond nutrition, the 80/20 rule can be applied to other wellness areas such as physical activity, mental health, sleep hygiene, and stress management. Aim to be active most days, reserve time for hobbies and relaxation, strive for quality sleep, and incorporate mindfulness practices. Leave the all-or-nothing perfectionist mindset behind and use this balanced approach to achieve your health goals without feeling deprived.
