Mindful Eating is Always on Time

By Pavel G. Somov, Ph.D.

Thought process (from a few minutes ago):

“It’s 1:11pm. First meal of the day. How shall I think of this? Late breakfast? Early lunch? Time… is irrelevant to eating. I am eating now. I am eating this moment. Eating the moment is always on time.”

What was I eating? Irrelevant too! Here’s what matters: I was feasting on experiential calories of the moment.

I wish you a healthy existential appetite!
