“Eating everything on our plate is a perfect example of one of those patterns. ” she says.

“I find that for many of us, the biggest thing we’re missing is what our body is telling us,” Museles says. “Slowing down allows you to taste and feel textures, to feel full sooner with less.”
“我发现，我们当中的很多人最大的疏忽是忽视了那些身体告诉我们的信息，吃慢一点，细细品味，你很快就感觉饱了。”Museles说。
It makes you observe your behavior in a whole new way, King says.
它让你以一种全新的方式观察你的饮食行为。
“Mindful eating is about cultivating that inner gourmet — really letting yourself enjoy the food you enjoy — just in smaller quantities.” Kristeller says. Thank you.
