Incorporate Gratitude - Mindful Meals challenge, powered by Compass One Healthcare - Day 9 Tip
Published
Mindful eating and appreciation go hand-in-hand. You can’t have one without the other.
We talked a lot about joy in yesterday’s tip, and meals should bring you joy. “The root of joy is gratefulness,” says David Steindl-Rast. To savor your food and find joy in eating, you must be grateful.
As you sit down for your meals today, take a moment to appreciate whatever sits on your plate. Start your meal on a positive note — with a hopeful and grateful attitude.
Appreciating the nourishment your food gives you, the delicious tastes and textures, and the ability to sit down for a meal are core components of mindful eating. We hope the past 8 days have given you more gratitude for the eating process and strengthened your relationship with food.
For more inspiration, turn to #healthynurse Sandra Foley, who gets up every day and says “I am blessed, I will be a blessing to someone, and I am thankful.”
Let your food be a blessing in your life and acknowledge this gift before every meal.
