Hello, Productive .

Practice mindful eating during a meal, savouring each bite without distractions.

I attended a Mindfulness practice certification course earlier this year and it was a necessary skill to acquire.

In one of the practicals, we were taken through the process of eating mindfully.

Here are the steps you can follow to practice it.

Preparation.

• Choose a quiet and comfortable place to eat, free from distractions like phones, computers, or television.
• Set a positive intention for your meal, such as nourishing your body and savouring the experience.

Observation.

• Before you begin eating, take a moment to observe your food. Notice its colours, textures, and arrangement.
• Pay attention to the aroma of the food. Inhale deeply and appreciate the scents.

Gratitude.

• Express gratitude for the food you are about to eat. Reflect on the journey the food took from its source to your plate.

Engage Your Senses.

• As you take each bite, savour the flavours and textures. Chew slowly and thoroughly, paying attention to the changing taste.

When I practiced mindful eating I noticed that I was able to notice when I am full as against when I eat without being present and overfeeding.

Your task for today.

Practice mindful eating today throughout the day using the above process.

To a productive you,

Your Productivity Buddy.
