When you finally get your hands on that kettle corn, really taste it. Eat it slowly. Sit at a table, but not in front of a screen. Chew, dont inhale. Taste each ingredient. Mindful eating can be both freeing and frustrating. The tendency to plow through a meal without tasting it is so common that it feels odd to slow down, but eating mindfully can decrease your cravings, your waistline, and improve management of Type 2 diabetes. But not to worry -- your food doesnt have to be fancy, vegan or organic -- you can eat anything mindfully, even your kids pizza crusts, not that I know anything about that. So when a craving strikes, calm down, tune in and savor every bite. With some practice, that tractor beam from the cookie jar may be weaker than you remember.
