Mindful eating involves many components such as: Learning to make choices in beginning or ending a meal based on awareness of hunger and cues of overindulgence; Learning to identify personal triggers for mindless eating, such as emotions, social pressures, or certain foods;
Valuing quality over quantity of what you're eating; Appreciating the sensual, as well as the nourishing, capacity of food; Feeling deep gratitude that may come from appreciating and experiencing food.
