Food reveals our connection with earth.
Each bite contains the life of the sun and the earth…
We can see and taste the whole universe in a piece of bread!
Contemplating our food for a few seconds before eating,
and eating in mindfulness,
can bring us much happiness.
~ Thich Nhat Hanh
Taken slowly, or mindfully,
even eating an orange or a bowl of soup,
or a small piece of dark chocolate for that matter,
can take on the flavor of prayer.
~ Mary DeTurris Poust
Another wonderful mindfulness post by Wendy, and a good time to get folks aware of some renovations to phylor and adh’s blogs: eventually, will be My Frilly Freudian Slip — site up but still under construction
Mindfulness with eating is something I have tried to do sometimes. Never have been very successful at it–LOL! Your reminder is appreciated. 🙂
