Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey there, listeners, Leo Weston here your friendly neighborhood guide
to rewiring those pesky cravings that seem to hijack your life.
Buckle up, because today we're diving deep into a superpower
you might not even realize you possess. Mindful eating. Ever,
feel like you're mindlessly shoveling food down while scrolling through

(00:22):
social media or zoning out during a meeting. You know
that feeling of wait, did I actually enjoy that? Ah? Yeah,
We've all been there. But guess what. There's a way
to break free from this autopilot mode and rediscover the
pure joy of eating. We're talking about tuning into your

(00:44):
body's natural hunger and fullness cues, those whisper quiet signals
telling you when to eat and when to stop. It's
like having an internal GPS for your meals, guiding you
towards a healthier relationship with food. So here are five
key takeaways that will help you become a mindful eating master.

(01:05):
One slow down. Imagine this, You're savoring each bite, noticing
the textures, aromas, and flavors exploding on your palate. That's
mindful eating, an action. When we eat mindlessly, we often
gulp down food without truly tasting or appreciating it. Slowing

(01:28):
down allows us to savor every mouthful, which not only
enhances enjoyment, but also signals fullness cues more effectively. You
know that feeling of satisfaction after a meal where you've
really paid attention. That's what we're aiming for. Two. Check
in with your body. Ask yourself, am I truly hungry?

(01:52):
Or am I just bored, stressed or emotional. Oftentimes we
reach for food out of habit or to cope with
feelings instead of genuine hunger. By taking a moment to
check in with ourselves, we can make more conscious choices
about what and when we eat. Think of it like
checking the gas gauge before hitting the road. Three. Eliminate distractions.

(02:17):
Put down your phone, step away from the TV, and
close those laptop tabs. Distraction while eating is a major
culprit in mindless munching. When our attention is divided, we
miss out on the sensory experience of eating and can
easily overeat without realizing it. Imagine enjoying a beautiful sunset,

(02:39):
wouldn't you want to be fully present to appreciate its beauty.
Eating should be treated with the same level of mindfulness. Four,
Listen to your fullness signals. There's a sweet spot between
feeling satisfied and overly stuffed, and learning to recognize yours

(03:00):
or fullness cues is key. Pay attention to those gentle sensations,
that feeling of lightness or maybe a slight sense of
contentment that tell you you've had enough. It's like listening
to your body's internal thermostat. Five practice gratitude. Take a

(03:21):
moment before each meal to express gratitude for the food
you have. Appreciate the farmers, chefs, and all those who
made it possible for you to enjoy this nourishing meal.
This simple act of gratitude can transform our eating experience
from a mundane routine to a mindful celebration. Okay, picture this.

(03:45):
You're at a dinner party, surrounded by delicious food and
lively conversation, But instead of mindlessly grabbing plate after plate,
you find yourself savoring each bite. You notice the vice
bring colors, the delicate flavors, the satisfying textures. You listen

(04:06):
to your body's cues, pausing between bites to truly appreciate
the experience. By practicing mindful eating, in this scenario, not
only do you enjoy the meal more, but you also
avoid overeating and feel energized throughout the evening. You leave
feeling satisfied rather than stuffed, and ready for more social interactions.

(04:29):
So listeners remember these key takeaways. Slow down, check in
with your body, eliminate distractions, listen to fullness cues, and
practice gratitude. It's like rewiring your brain to enjoy food
on a deeper level. The journey towards mindful eating is
a continuous process, so be patient with yourself. Every small

with food and greater overall well being. Being ready to
