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

    I definitely enjoy eating mindfully with my family/SO. It helps me enjoy the food and company better. I never used to eat with my phone at the table or anything, but turning the TV off and all eating together is different and nice.

      For my "explore my area" action I went down to Granite Crk, a very cool and dynamic beach.

    It's a little bit of a challenge to cut out all palm oil, and other products that contribute to deforestation. Sometimes it's unclear if products are rainforest friendly. But I recently double checked that the coffee at my house is fair trade, and I've found fair trade coffee is often much better.
