If you like to cook, playing in the kitchen can be a great time to practice mindfulness. Go slowly and enjoy each step. Allow your senses to participate fully. Be with whatever is present without judgment.
When you are learning mindful eating, the emphasis is initially on the eating process. Eating slowly and without distraction. Paying attention to hunger, fullness and taste. That’s all good and important, but what’s equally important is awareness after the fact.
