Mealtimes can be a great time to practice gratitude. Remind yourself that a lot of unseen work happens before food can appear on your plate. If you are dining with others, remember to appreciate your relationships and time you are spending together. Feel free to share your gratitude out loud with family and friends or simply pause for a few silent moments before starting your meal.

Mindful eating is also a way to practice gratitude during mealtimes. It is a way to slow down the pace of our meals, pay attention to how our bodies respond to food, and gives us time to appreciate the eating process.
