Learn to love the food that loves you.

Learn to love the food that loves you. It is all in the practice. Yes, we need not be ruled by our cravings. In just walking through life not mindfully, we act on impulses and follow old habits that may not be what is best for us. Simply paying attention to our thoughts before acting we can divert or at least modify behavior that is less than skillful.

Upon seeing a craving for some supposed treat, why not just take a good breath and realize that may be enough. If you still feel the need to indulge, perhaps take a smaller amount. Then just really be with the indulgence and see how you feel about it as it is being consumed. Also really look wither the action was as you expected or wished.
