Mini mindful eating meditation
Mindful eating is the practice of paying attention and involving all our senses in the present moment with our food. Eating mindfully can help us connect better with our feelings of hunger and fullness, as well as the simple joy of eating. We invite you to try this brief mini-meditation before eating, which only takes a few minutes.
