Title: Mindful Eating
Post by: goon on June 04, 2013, 10:36:35 PM

7 habits of mindful eating
1. Honor the food. Simply unplug daily distractions during mealtime.

2.     Engage all six senses. Notice the sounds, colors, smells and textures as well as your mind’s response to them, not just the taste.

3.     Be mindful of size of the food. Serve in modest (small) portions.

4.     Chew the food thoroughly in your mouth. Consciously choose small bits.

5.     Eat slowly and enjoy your food; avoid overeating

6.     Don’t skip meals. Later when hungry, you may end up grabbing more food.

7.     Eat a plant-based diet for your health. There are higher risks of colon cancer from red meat and processed meats; or the higher risk of heart disease from the saturated fat found in meat and dairy products.

I always try to maintain these 7 habits, but sometimes it is very boring.
