Food, Agriculture, and Land Use

Mindful eating is healthier for us than eating with distractions. How does your eating experience differ when practicing mindfulness?

it's halloween month which also means harry potter marathons every weekend. this makes it so difficult to not eat whilst watching because the food on screen looks so good.. but i've noticed that i have a lot less sugar crashes and feeling less groggy as each day goes by because i'm binging less and not mindlessly snacking anymore.

What are some more "Rs" you could add to your daily practice to reduce your waste?
sylvia chung 10/06/2023 2:04 AM
i could probably cut back on alcohol wet wipes and replace with spray/micro fibre cloth.
i could repurpose jars (spag bol sauce jars, jam jars etc) into containers for sweets, chia seeds, nuts, etc)
reduce single use plastics eg by not buying multipacks, not buying fruit/veg wrapped in plastic.
reduce cotton pad usage and replace with a reusable version
