Eat

Transform Your Relationship with Food Through 20 Mindful Exercises to Feel Better and Become More Fulfilled

Beschreibung

I invite you to think about the last meal you had today. Did you eat on autopilot while your mind was elsewhere? Were you thinking about a past memory, planning the future, or running a fantasy? After a brief instant, the plate was empty, and you were ready to move on to your next task. Did you notice the colours and the shapes of your food? Did you stop to smell it? What were the textures and tastes you experienced? Did you hear the sounds the food made? What emotions did the food trigger? What thoughts happened when you ate that meal? EAT brings you on a simple journey to become more mindful, experience life more intensely, and increase the richness and vividness of the multisensorial experience of eating. You can increase the pleasure you get from eating through simple mindfulness exercises. Discover how to be truly satisfied and seize every occasion that life offers you. Explore how to be in the present moment. Learn how to decrease the suffering or discomfort you may experience with food. As you get to know how your mind and body function, guilt, shame, frustration, anxiety, and pain lose their grip and you become happier. As your mindfulness skills improve, you become able to make better choices in stressful situations. EAT is inspired by ancient and modern contemplative practices. Whether you are new to mindfulness or you are an experienced practitioner, you will discover a buffet of mindfulness techniques that will satisfy your hunger!
