SLOWING DOWN MEALTIME

Previous posts on this blog talk about the benefits of eating more slowly and savoring our food. We live in a fast-paced society and tend to take that pace to eating our meals. If you are a fast eater and would like to change that, here are a few tips for you:


  • Set your fork (or spoon) down between bites and chew your food thoroughly.
  • No watching TV or using electronic devices during mealtime. When distracted we tend to eat too fast and too much.
  • Habits don't change overnight but try to focus on slowing down and enjoying your meal at least once a day to start.
  • Don't engage in emotional discussions or arguments at mealtime. We tend to eat faster during tense situations.
