sooo. i take dinner early and i work late hors, by the time it is even 10 o clock, i am munching something or the other and the munching turns into binging in no time. my mind feels the need to feed myself to push myself to keep working, i stress eat also. my anxiety and insecurities about my body fuel my binging further. it is like i know what I'm a doing is not right, but i don't know how to quit

Mindful eating is a practice that involves paying full attention to the experience of eating and drinking. It emphasizes being present in the moment while consuming food, which can lead to a greater appreciation of flavors, textures, and the overall eating experience. The concept of mindful eating stems from mindfulness, a meditation technique that encourages being fully aware of your thoughts, feelings, and sensations without judgment.

Key principles of mindful eating include:

1. **Savoring the Moment:** Mindful eating encourages you to take the time to truly taste and enjoy your food. This involves engaging your senses to fully experience the colors, aromas, textures, and flavors of the food.

2. **Eating with Awareness:** Pay attention to the process of eating, including chewing and swallowing. Focus on each bite and the sensations in your mouth as you eat.

3. **Listening to Hunger and Fullness:** Tune in to your body's hunger and fullness cues. Eat when you're hungry and stop when you're satisfied, rather than overeating due to external factors or emotions.

4. **Non-Judgmental Attitude:** Approach your eating experiences without judgment. Avoid labeling foods as "good" or "bad," and instead aim to understand your preferences and responses to different foods.

5. **Mindful Portion Control:** Be aware of portion sizes and how much you're eating. This can help prevent overeating and promote a healthier relationship with food.

6. **Engaging the Senses:** Use all your senses to connect with your food. Notice the colors, textures, smells, and sounds associated with your meal.

7. **Minimize Distractions:** Eat without distractions like screens, books, or work. By focusing solely on your meal, you can better recognize your body's signals of hunger and satisfaction.

8. **Appreciating Gratitude:** Cultivate gratitude for the food you have and the process of eating. Consider the effort that went into producing and preparing the meal.

9. **Cultivating Mindful Moments:** Mindful eating can extend beyond formal meals. Snacking mindfully and even practicing mindfulness during food preparation can enhance your overall relationship with food.

The practice of mindful eating has been associated with various benefits, including improved digestion, better portion control, weight management, reduced emotional eating, and an increased overall sense of satisfaction from meals. It can also contribute to a healthier relationship with food and a more positive body image.

To incorporate mindful eating into your routine, start by taking a few deep breaths before you eat, focusing your attention on the present moment. Chew your food thoroughly and try to eat slowly, savoring each bite. As with any mindful practice, it might take time to fully embrace mindful eating, so be patient with yourself as you develop this skill.  

binging then purging, overexercising, not eating all day, looking in the mirror too often :(
