How to Practice Mindful Eating With Harvard University Nutritionist Dr. Lilian Cheung

Dr Lilian Cheung is a lecturer and director of health promotion and communication at Harvard School of Public Health, Department of Nutrition and an expert on the practice of mindful eating. She is the co-author of the book “Savor: Mindful Eating, Mindful Life” with Buddhist monk Thich Nhat Hahn.

Lilian is an active practitioner of Buddhism, and is passionate about mindful eating — understanding why we eat what we eat, and being fully aware of what you are eating during the practice. She believes that this is important for our own health and the health of our planet.

Lilian is kind of a big deal when it comes to understanding the science and practice of mindful eating, which we sure could use right about now. I know a lot of us — self included — have been mindlessly stress eating throughout the past year and could really use the practice in our daily lives.

She’s going to give us the rundown on how to bring this practice of mindfulness simply and seamlessly into our lives.
