intentional meals

Oct 5

Dear Readers,

We've all been there - munching on a sandwich while answering emails, mindlessly snacking in front of the TV, or rushing through meals to get on with our day. In these moments, we lose touch with the experience of eating, and more importantly, with the nourishment our food provides.

Intentional eating is about slowing down, savoring each bite, and truly experiencing our meals. It's about gratitude for the food on our plate, understanding how it fuels our bodies, and making choices that align with our health and well-being.

This week, let's explore the practice of intentional eating.

try this simple practice

Choose one meal a day to eat without distractions - no TV, no phone, no work.
As you eat, pay attention to the flavors, textures, and aromas of your food.
Chew slowly, savoring each bite, and take a moment to express gratitude for your meal.

You may find that food tastes better when eaten mindfully, and that you feel more satisfied after your meals. In making this a practice, you may also find yourself gravitating toward ingredients that contribute to your overall wellness.

May your week be filled with mindful meals, nourishing not just your body, but your soul as well.

Yours in the journey,
