Abstract
The prevalence of global obesity is increasing at an unprecedented rate. Conventional weight loss programs, though logical in theory, usually prove to be ineffective in practice. There is an increased need and urgency for healthcare professionals to develop innovative methods to combat this pernicious health condition. Embracing the concept of mindful eating is one way that individuals can improve the quality of their health and well-being. This paper highlights the definition of mindful eating, describes the consequences of mindless eating, discusses the Japanese concept of hara hachi bu, and finally offers realistic practices that individuals can adopt in order to improve their connection with food and with others.
