    Intuitive eating means listening to the signals your body sends you. It's all a matter of self-love. The intuitive eating model was developed in 1995 by two California dietitians, Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch. 
    All of us, at birth, ate following our intuition. Small children are the perfect example: they eat when they are hungry and stop when they are full. The amount of food they ingest changes virtually every day. Once they eat two whole courses, other times they stop after just a few bites. 
    As we grow up, we use intuition less when it comes to food. In childhood we were told that if we wanted dessert we had to finish what we had on our plate first. We have learned that there are good and other bad foods. The result of these lessons? As adults, when we eat "good" foods, we feel good about ourselves. But if we eat "bad" foods, we end up feeling guilty. The purpose of intuitive eating is to fundamentally change the way we think about food, and this can only be done through a new learning process. 
    Intuitive eating is not a diet; indeed, it is the opposite. You don't have to count calories or macronutrients, and there's no plan for your meals. All foods are allowed. If you eat while listening to your body, you will learn to be more aware of the signals you are receiving. Eat when you are hungry, stop when you reach satiety. You will then understand what you need. It can be a salad, but also a slice of chocolate cake. And that's fine.

    ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
    "Home Fire," by Kamila Shamsie, is a contemporary reimagining of Sophocles’ “Antigone,” exploring the themes of family, loyalty, and justice against the backdrop of the War on Terror. The story follows the Pasha family, whose lives are shattered when their brother, Parvaiz, becomes radicalized and joins ISIS. After Parvaiz is killed in Istanbul, his sister Aneeka embarks on a journey to reclaim his body, challenging societal norms and defying the British government's refusal to repatriate the remains of citizens who joined ISIS. Aneeka's quest for justice intersects with the life of Karamat Lone, the ambitious British Home Secretary of Pakistani origin, who finds his political aspirations clashing with his family’s history. As the narrative unfolds, the novel explores the complexities of identity, belonging, and the enduring power of familial bonds in a world marked by political turmoil and the corrosive effects of prejudice.

    The author, Sanjit Kumar Naskar, in this book titled A Critical Analysis of Judicial Appointments in India, has referred to a wide range of resources including books, online law journals, and articles from authoritative resources.Firstly, the author reviews Prof. Madhav Godbole’s book The Judiciary and Governance in India, which advocates for judicial accountability in the higher judiciary. While Prof. Godbole touches on lower judiciary transfers and politicization, he overlooks transparency in the appointment process for the lower judiciary.Secondly, the author examines Prof. V.R. Jayadevan’s PhD thesis Judicial Creativity in Constitutional Interpretation to explain the historical background of judicial appointments in the higher judiciary. The author, however, critiques Jayadevan’s acceptance of the seniority rule in appointing the CJI, countering it with Justice Katju’s arguments.Thirdly, the article The NJAC Act – Is it the Perfect Remedy? by Vikram Mishra and Ananth Balaji is analyzed, highlighting its critical view of the NJAC Act, 2014. While comprehensive, the article fails to fully recognize the Act’s salient features.Lastly, Prof. Tom S. Clark’s The Limits of Judicial Independence is discussed, where the author argues that while judicial behaviour is crucial, Clark does not adequately justify its role as an additional selection criterion for judges in the higher judiciary.
