"Eating mindfully can help you reclaim the pleasure of food. So many of us have become out of touch with this, one of life’s most simple and wonderful pleasures.
When you sit for your meal, turn off all distractions and focus on your immediate experience. Before you begin to eat, pause. Look at your food, take notice of the scent.
When you eat take small bites and chew slowly. Only pick up your fork after you’ve fully chewed and swallowed the last mouthful. Be fully present in the moment with your experience savoring the tastes and textures one yummy morsel at a time.
By eating mindfully eating you aid healthy digestion and avoid overeating."
