In today's episode we introduce our first power habit.  Eating Slowly and Mindfully.  If you want to learn how to lose weight and keep it off, this simple technique and habit needs to be part of your toolkit.It takes 20 minutes for the brain to receive a signal that you are full.  In our busy lives I am sure that most of us are finishing our meals much quicker than that and running a very high risk of eating more than we need to.  We later than find ourselves overfull and not feeling too great.Studies have shown that faster eaters not only eat more in their current meal, but they also feel hungry again much sooner giving us a double whammy effect.We also cover eating mindfully in this episode and our host Mick Spiers talks us through 2 practical examples - one using a raisin and the other using a hamburger to demonstrate that eating mindfully can apply to any form of food.We hope you enjoy the show.
