Thanks to counting calories, food fads and restrictive diets, food can become a chore, even a source of stress. In a way, the science of eating has sucked the joy out of mealtime. This week’s guest want us to return to the art of eating. The author of Mastering Mindful Eating, registered dietitian Michelle Babb suggests we say goodbye to dieting and instead embrace a new approach, one where we mindfully savor our food and make eating a sacred ritual.
In our conversation this week, we discuss:
- Eating our food, feeling our feelings;
- The science of eating versus the art of eating;
- Digestion and stress;
- Learning to savor food and make it an edible meditation.
I loved this conversation and can’t wait to share it with you.
