The tools Mahon offers fit together like a wheel, rather than sequential steps. Simple, delicious, vegan recipes complement each section, demonstrating mindful alternatives for every meal and many eating challenges, including eating at work and school, eating at restaurants and on vacation, and mindfully feeding friends and entertaining.Mindful eating has been shown to improve body acceptance, diminish negative self-talk and support weight loss.
