The Art of Mindful Eating (For You and Your Kiddos)

Image
Mindful eating is the practice of cultivating awareness around food and your relationship with food. It teaches how to be present during meals and how to play close attention to how foods affect us not only physically, but mentally and emotionally, as well.

Your energy levels plummet and your brain is not releasing the positive endorphins that make you happy.  Sometimes, it may feel like you will never be able to fully get out of the rut you have gotten into, but don’t think so fast! It’s easy to get caught up in your own world with no regard to what other people are doing. It may be a good time to step away from your normal routine and thought processes, and dive into a new way of life (even if it is just for a moment).
