Mindful Eating to Increase Pleasure & Reduce Calories

Joy of Half a CookieHave you ever tried to stare down homemade cookies or your favorite potato chips? Why can’t we enjoy a little of everything without going hog-wild and paying a price? It turns out we can by practicing mindful eating, described in the book, The Joy of Half a Cookie, by mindful eating expert and psychologist Dr. Jean Kristeller. Faith read this one twice and is loving her food more than ever.
