Eating Mindfully

How to End Mindless Eating and Enjoy a Balanced Relationship with Food

by Susan Albers


Any problem with food, whether eating too little, overeating, or chaotic eating, can be improved through the practice of mindfullness. This is a gentle book with 46 techniques for becoming more mindful of how, what, and where and why you are eating. It integrates Buddhist methods of meditation with cognitive behavioral skills.

This book presents simple, straightforward techniques for anyone who has struggled with chronic dieting, weight control, and psychological stress due to mindless eating. Eating Mindfully is about learning to develop a nonjudgmental, awareness and acceptance of your self, weight and eating habits. Through this unique awareness change naturally happens. The foundation of this book rests on the wisdom of Buddhist techniques for controlling your mind combined with cognitive behavioral skills and exercises created to foster mindfulness.

A true mindful eater is nonjudgmental, compassionate and above all aware of the taste, texture, process of eating and knows exactly how their body feels at all times. It's about being so closely in touch with what is going on inside that you know the exact moment you are satisfied rather than stuffed or starving by learning the why, what, when and how we eat.

Observe "should" and "should not" thoughts, critical beliefs, black and white thinking, good and bad food categories. Extreme thinking rather than the "middle way" (less extreme thinking/grey areas). Bring to the surface automatic thoughts and "filters."
