Re: Physical ingestion of food...

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I've always been a fast eater & it is really hard to unlearn this but I am

working on it slowly. Trying to ENJOY every bite when I remember. Why is that so

hard?

full...which is a constant challenge all day long...I realized today as I am

trying to eat mindfully as a part of these processes that my actual ingestion of

food has an exaggerated, almost aggressive component...as if the food is being

taken away from me while I eat, so my chewing and consuming are rapid and

messy....this was very disturbing to notice, especially as I was hoping to feel

more " calm " with the " mindful " , non-distracted eating.
