Re: Mindfulness
I started eating green salad with chopsticks. Not using a fork has somehow halved the stress associated with it. I don’t even need dressing. Not having to face the messy ordeal of trying to spear leafy greens with a fork has lowered my resistance. There seemed to have been an inordinate level of embarrassment that chopsticks have dissolved.
Could just be me but still it’s a breakthrough.

I like using chopsticks.
Picking up that one pea or bean or kernel of rice is fun, challenging and can be a form of mindfulness.
