A Mindful Approach to Eating

Eating The Moment, a book written by a psychologist Pavel Somov, is a collection of 141 practical exercises that help readers to relax, start paying more attention to their eating patterns, and build a more balanced relationship with their food.

Instead of dictating what you should or should not eat, the book makes you inquisitive, conscious and loving toward your eating habits. It is concerned with the reasons we eat and not with what we eat.
