When you feel upset about something, write down the reasons that you are upset and then once you calm down, go back, and decide where these emotions are coming from. If they are coming from the past, the heart or the ego, find out.
When you are eating, take a moment to see if you are present in your emotions. Are you rushing through your eating or are you enjoying the food that you are taking in? Take time to smell the food and really taste it. This can make you feel more positive about what you are eating and help you to be healthier.
