Chew each bite slowly. Don’t rush. Focus on the taste. No phone, no talking—just eat with full attention.
Eat light, natural, plant-based food like fruits, grains, and veggies. Avoid meat, onions, garlic, and junk food.
Eat at the same time every day. Buddhist monks eat before sunset. This helps your body stay balanced.
Say a silent “thank you” to your food and whoever made it. Gratitude makes eating a spiritual act.
Don’t eat just because you’re bored. Ask yourself, “Am I really hungry?” Only eat when your body needs it.
Don’t overeat. Stop when you feel 80% full. This helps digestion and keeps your body light and calm.
After eating, sit in silence for 5–10 minutes. Let your body digest and your mind settle.
Food should make your body feel light and your mind feel clear. Eat to grow, not just to fill your belly.
