Welcome to Litsy!

Simple book that doesn‘t restrict what you eat or how you eat, but focuses on bringing mindfulness to when you eat. For example, focus on eating between set hours, not randomly on and off all day. And think more fully about food as energy, or fuel for the body, not because you‘re happy, sad, celebrating, etc. Essentially you control your hunger, it doesn‘t control you.

Weekend reading. Buddha‘s Diet actually looks practical so far.

Enjoyable read on bringing mindfulness to eating.

Super problematic diet book that appropriates Buddhism for Westerners who want to diet and pretend it's more than that. I got this book bc I wanted to learn about intermittent fasting but that appears to be a 4 page section. :/

My favorite Yoga teacher is also a Ayueredic Practioner so I didn't really learn anything I didn't already know. However if you aren't familiar with the principle of bring mindfulness to your eating habits, it's a good read.

"Eating should be a joy, not a battle."

"When all else fails, drink some tea. Really. You'll be amazed how many problems it can solve. We like to think of it as Buddha's whiskey."
