Change Your Pattern
Our environment can have a big influence on our eating habits. Changing where and how you eat can help with eating more mindfully and properly enjoying your food.
Quiz
Jen tends to quickly scarf down her lunch while she's working. She wants to break this habit. What could she do to eat more mindfully?
Working while eating distracts us from what and how we're eating. Designating a time for your lunch break and JUST eating during that time can help you be more aware of your food. Find a location away from your workspace, put away your work, and disconnect from devices to help focus on your food and avoid eating too fast or too much.
