Last week, I wrote about aware food that reminds me to a different diet book titled, "enjoy: mindful eating, mindful life" by Vietnamese Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh and physician and nutritionist Lilian Cheung.
The book combines the Buddhist spirituality with nutrition facts. Religion and science in a book? Let's see how well they gel.
Nhat Hanh reviews mediation be more aware of techniques in the book, slow down, and think more about what we put in our bodies. The meditation center around the core of Buddhism that is all totally aware itself and your environment.
The book gives detailed instructions to the to find out what block you completely unaware if you eat and how these obstacles to overcome. Nhat Hanh describes stress and emotional eating, and always aware in everyday life.
The nutritionist, Lilian CHEUNG, provides specific guidelines for diet and exercise to go along with the meditations. It provides an idea of the reader, such as shopping at the supermarket and some simple recipe ideas. Approach is the diet vegetarian based, and scientific evidence. However, this part of the book is a bit basic, and you get this information almost anywhere.
The authors get also the reader to think eating out comes, if you eat it. Perhaps we take more time to think about and choose where our food comes, are we more aware and appreciate our food in the process.
Enjoy food may not be for everyone. Another religion strictly to follow or not prepared, diets, can explore a spiritual side not like this method. But for many of us, I see look at this book as a great tool, a completely different dieting method that can be very effective.
