1.Your Mindful Eating Mode is… RelaxationYou are passionate, strong, and determined. When you set your mind to a goal, there's nothing you can't accomplish. Mindful eating included! As a leader, and a high achiever… you naturally inspire others to improve their lives and seek the best for themselves. You can use your strong determination to create powerful changes in your relationship to food. Because you live at a quick pace, relaxation is the most important mindful eating mode for you to work with. It's time for you to slow down.As you slow down and relax when you eat, your body will get powerful invitations to digest your food better. Many people even slim down when they start eating slower, because they are fully processing their food. Plus, digestion begins in the mouth, so you don't want to miss this step.Here's your eating challenge for the week:At each and every meal: slow down, relax, and take your time. You work hard and you deserve some time to nourish yourself.You'll find that by giving yourself a little more time with your food, you are going to feel more full. In every area of your life."Drink your tea slowly and reverently, as if it is the axis on which the world earth revolves – slowly, evenly, without rushing toward the future." — Thích Nhất Hạnh🌱 Here Are 3 Powerful Tools to Eat More Mindfully Today 🌱1. Sprinkle on some oxygenJust like air fuels a fire, oxygen actually fuels your digestive fire. The more you breathe when you eat, the more oxygen can help the digestive process. 2 or 3 times during your meal, take a pause and breathe deeply. Fill your lungs up with oxygen like it's a side-dish. When you've finished eating, take a few more deep breaths to signal to your body that you're done. Thank your body for supporting you. This simple practice alone can go a long way in preventing bloating and easing digestive discomfort. 2. Notice your surroundingsMany people eat while they're working, while they're watching television, while they're on the phone. But multitasking while eating usually means disconnecting from your body. Here's a little exercise for you to be more present with your food:At your next meal, put away the distractions. Decide to be just a little more present. Notice your surroundings. Notice your heartbeat. Notice the colors, textures, and tastes of your meal. As you pause and commune with your surroundings, you're opening up to the full experience of your meal. 3. Let go of the pastMany of us carry baggage about the way we've eaten in the past. The way we were raised in relation to food. There’s so much to unpack there, and I want to fully acknowledge how deep this is. A powerful first step in healing from old food challenges is to give yourself permission to start over. You can write a new story.If you notice emotions flooding to the surface during a meal, gently pause. Put a hand on your heart. Think of 3 reasons why you're grateful for yourself.In this way, you'll begin to create a space of self-forgiveness inside your heart. Your Mindful Eating Mentor Hey darling!

4.Your Mindful Eating Mode is… ThoughtYou have a deep and considered approach to life. Your mind is your anchor, probably because you're wicked smart! You can tap into the power of thought in order to deepen your relationship with food. Science tells us that the way we think about what we eat impacts our digestion, metabolism, and hormones. Just like the placebo effect. If we think a food is healthy, we will get more nutritional benefit from it.A powerful way for you to use thought to heal your relationship with food is to study how you think about it. This approach works well for you because you happen to delight in details. Here's a mindful eating tool for you to harness the power of thought:Through journaling, create an inventory about some of your most common thoughts about food. Do you call certain kinds of food "good" and others "bad?" Once you've got a long list going, highlight the thoughts that lift you up. Then X out the thoughts that are bringing you down. Rewrite the unfriendly thoughts by flipping them into a positive. When you're eating, you can begin to notice if some of those unfriendly thoughts want to crop up. Then practice one of your new, friendly thoughts instead. "Meditation practice isn’t about trying to throw ourselves away and become something better. It’s about befriending who we are already." – Pema Chödrön🌱 Here Are 3 Powerful Tools to Eat More Mindfully Today 🌱1.
