I say a prayer from childhood, then express my gratitude for the food as well as for my health, my healthy, pain free body, my prosperity, loving family and friends and for all that I am. I am truly present in the moments of gratitude. Good article. I am present at least three times a day when I take a moment to be thankful for the food I am eating.

I have to agree with you that our lives are a unique combination of what we put into it via food choices, thoughts and lifestyles equally. And to be happy can seem more complicated than it is. Being present is such a simple and wonderful thing that we can all benefit from being reminded of. In many buddhist practices, it is taught that you can remind yourself of being present by choosing a common daily event that will happen throughout your day and in that event to take a moment to stop, be present and say thanks. It can be something as simple as hearing the phone ring, walking through a doorway, watching a light turn from green to red. Take a moment with your reminder of choice and be more present! Thanks again for your post, I truly enjoyed it. Kimberly Russell MS, CNC, RYT Maya,
