EAT WELL<br />

As I mentioned before, while chewing each bite of<br />

food for 25 times or sitting unplugged for 20 minutes<br />

would be ideal, it’s not reality for many of us. Mindful<br />

eating is more than just eating slowly. Mindful eating<br />

is being aware of what, why, and how you eat. If<br />

you’re in a rush and running out the door consider<br />

mindful eating to be not how long it takes you to eat<br />

but what you’re choosing.<br />

Paying attention to what we’re eating can make a<br />

huge difference. It’s the multiple, small instances and<br />

mindful approach at every meal that amount to you<br />

living and feeling your best.<br />

A really simple and easy on-the-go option is a<br />

nutritious shake, such as Vega One. Vega One is a<br />

blend of protein, veggies and greens, vitamins and<br />

minerals, fiber, Omega-3 ALA, antioxidants A, C and<br />

E and probiotics. And by simply taking 2 minutes of<br />

your day to shake it with water or 5 minutes to blend<br />

into a smoothie, Vega One allows you to easily get your<br />

nutrition on the go and feel good about your choice.<br />
