Mindfulness in practice
Mindful eating:
• Remember the mindful eating cycle : WHY, WHEN, WHAT, HOW, HOW MUCH, and WHERE
• Being in tune with your body's needs and hunger signals : "rate your hunger" !
• Take time to enjoy the eating experience
• Make pleasurable food choices !
• Eat just “How much food is needed to ease your current level of hunger“
“Eating mindfully offers you a chance to pause and gain
perspective before you eat”
