AN AWARD-WINNING, FRESH PERSPECTIVE ON MEALTIME BEHAVIOR CHANGE
MIND TO MOUTH reveals how our minds create our food experiences and why incorporating a simple mindfulness approach can disrupt unhelpful habits, create more ease, support healthful outcomes, and make meals tastier and more fun.
Like many modern women, Heather Sears was rushing and triple-tasking through meals. Then her body began to protest: she began to choke whenever she tried to eat. She set out to discover what had gone so wrong with mealtimes, and most importantly, what she could do to make them the nourishing, delicious experiences she knew they could be.
Mind to Mouth explores the realization that ultimately changed Heather’s life: that each bite is the end result of a journey through meal planning, shopping, cooking, and eating, and that a mindful approach during each of these has the power to shift everything.
