A Meditation on Mindful Eating

For so many of us food is a way to check out of the moment. While eating our awareness often travels behind us into the past or ahead of us into the future. We eat at our desk at lunch brilliantly multitasking and missing the doorway to nutrients. Food becomes social a link to other people rather than a link to the moment, to the wisdom of our body and its many signals and messages. What would it be like to imagine food as a doorway, not out of, but into the moment. What would it be like to imagine that the tastes and the textures of the food can become gentle tethers that bring us back to this precious moment. This 10-minute meditation is designed to help you practice mindful eating. Before you start, you'll need to gather something to eat such as an apple or another wholesome snack. As you practice this meditation, each bite will be a doorway to sensation and flavor that fills you up with presence.

This is such a beautiful video. When I find myself watching a show or reading and eating, I stop and put this on instead. Thank you for sharing 💝

This is such an amazing powerful meditation. I have this anxiety problem where if I eat my heart races but the second I zoned into this while I was eating my heart rate returned to normal and I was able to enjoy my food again thankyou♥️

Thank you so much, Sister. As a BK student, I actually typed in 'eating in the avyakt state' but didn't find what I was looking for. I've really enjoyed the last 11 minutes and to hear you say Om Shanti at the end gave me total comfort! I'm about to prepare my (and Baba's) lunch so thank you, again.

Thank you thank you! I have an eating disorder and health issues that restrict certain foods so Ive been feeling very “out” of myself. Not connected. Scared. Confused. This I can tell, is going to be very helpful during my recovery! I can’t believe I didn’t look this up sooner! All in due time :)

Speaking about freedom and mind power; thanks to this video I am able to choose if I like the taste of something. Imagination is pure preasures power.
Thank you a whole lot for taking the time to make and upload this video.
