When practiced to its fullest, mindful eating turns a simple meal into a spiritual experience, giving us a deep appreciation of all that went into the meal's creation as well as a deep understanding of the relationship between the food on our table, our own health, and our planet's health. —Thich Nhat Hanh Half an hour's meditation each day is essential, except when you are busy. Then a full hour is needed. —Saint Francis de Sales Life is a train of moods like a string of beads; and as we pass through them they prove to be many colored lenses, which paint the world in their own hue, and each shows us only what lies in its own focus. —Ralph Waldo Emerson What you do speaks so loud that I cannot hear what you say. —Ralph Waldo Emerson | |

An interesting study on cell phones and students found that high-frequency cell phone users tended to have lower GPAs, higher anxiety, and lower satisfaction (unhappiness) with life relative to their peers who used the phone less often (Lepp, Barkley, and Karpinski 2014). But mealtime doesn't have to be laden with anxiety and guilt. The key? Always being plugged in and tuned in to your body—particularly when you eat. Most of us experience lots of internal suffering because we replay thoughts and feelings about something that happened in the past or fantasize about something that may or may not occur in the future. In this way, Vipassana is an ideal antidote to emotional eating. When you're eating because of buried feelings, you're not present in the moment but rather consciously or subconsciously numbing your emotions with food. By learning to be present more often, you will be less likely to let emotions govern your choices; instead you can learn to identify them as they crop up. Through regular Vipassana practice, you may find that many desires and troubling thoughts simply fade away; at the same time, you may develop more compassion for yourself and others. Research on mantras has found that they can actually change the blood flow in the part of your brain that controls motor and sensory functioning and memory. Chanting "om" has been shown to deactivate the brain structure's limbic system and the amygdala, which helps people manage emotion. Take 6 to 12 breaths, making the exhalations a little longer than the inhalations. The longer your exhalations, the quieter your mind will get. Conversely, to increase energy, focus on slightly longer inhalations. Did you know that you tend to naturally breathe out of one nostril at a time and then switch automatically in a repeated cycle? What's more, one-nostril breathing has been shown to change your metabolism, and this could help you actually burn more calories from the foods you eat (Pal et al. 2014). An interesting study revealed that enacting a ritual around your food can not only heighten your enjoyment of the food; it can also result in improved portion control, a slower pace of eating, and even a willingness to pay more for the food you're eating (Vohs et al. 2013). Seems that the concept of power posing—standing with force, courage, strength, and character—may produce immediate changes in your body's chemistry. In fact, after just two minutes in a high-power pose—say, hands on hips, legs shoulder width apart, exuding confidence like you were center stage presenting a great idea—the hormone testosterone, a dominance hormone, increases 20 percent, while cortisol, the stress hormone, fades away (Carney, Cuddy, and Yap 2010). | |
