Mindful Eating
We have been talking about mindfulness and paying attention during the past week. Mindful eating is a practice of slowing down. Take time to appreciate the food you have. Have you ever just stopped to admire the produce aisle? It is amazing. We are so lucky to have the amount and types of food available to us.
There are many practices associated with mindful eating. We are starting with slowing down and devoting ourselves to feeding ourselves for twenty minutes in our daily practice. You can also be mindful of your portions. Think about how much food you NEED. If you are hungry, be sure it really is hunger and not some other need you are looking to fill. Being aware is a big step in managing your food intake. Try drinking water before you eat. Be mindful, and make choices.
