The problem is, you’re not connecting with your food
Five Techniques to Connect with your Food & Savor your Meals
“Eating is about feeling good, not being good. So I set the intention that I want to feel better when I’m done eating than I did when I started. That’s going to affect every decision I make, from how much food I take to what food I take.” —Michelle May, MD
“I really look at the first bite. I was just at a conference, and there was this huge display of cookies. It would have been so easy to grab one and walk away, but I really looked and noticed they seemed hard and dry, so I passed right on by. That pause helps me decide whether I actually want it.” —Susan Albers, PsyD
“I pause and reflect on where the food came from and all the hands that prepared it. This brings up a natural feeling of gratitude.” —Judson Brewer, MD
