The Importance of Mindful Eating

I believe that savoring each bite and being fully present during meals can have a profound impact on our health and happiness. By engaging all our senses – sight, smell, taste, touch, and sound – we can develop a deeper connection with our food, leading to improved digestion and nutrient absorption.

Podcast

Practicing being present while eating can help you tune in to your hunger and fullness cues, leading to better weight management and reduced stress. It has allowed me to appreciate the effort and care put into preparing meals, fostering a sense of gratitude and self-compassion in my relationship with food.

Practical Tips for Mindful Eating

Here are some practical tips I recommend for incorporating mindful eating into your daily routine:

  • Engage all your senses: Take note of the colors, textures, aromas, and tastes of your food.
  • Chew slowly: Enjoy each bite thoroughly and savor the flavors.
  • Avoid distractions: Create a mindful eating environment by minimizing distractions.
  • Listen to your body: Pay attention to your body’s signals and stop eating when you feel satisfied.

Cultivating a Mindful Approach

Through my journey of practicing mindful eating, I’ve experienced lasting changes in my eating habits and overall well-being. It has helped me develop a healthier relationship with food and embrace a more balanced and fulfilling lifestyle.

Notes

Feel free to add other vegetables of your choice for this healthy curry dish. There are many ways to make curry and this will not disappoint. 
You may adjust the heat ‘spicy’ by using half a serrano pepper or taking some of the seeds out. Toasting spices in a dry pan also will enhance the spices. Toasting spices is best done before grinding, just keep an eye out so they don’t burn. 
You can omit the oil and sauté with water or a little stock instead to cut the oil.
