🍎 Today’s Health Tip ~ Eating Mindfully
Eat Slowly
Eating slowly and mindfully gives your brain the chance to get the signal that you’re full, so you’re less likely to overeat. And if you take it slow, you’re more likely to think about what you’re eating and make sensible, healthy choices.

Eating mindfully gives me the opportunity to be grateful for every person who played a part in bringing the food to my table.
Today’s Poem ~ Infant Joy
Infant Joy
William Blake
‘I have no name:
I am but two days old.’
What shall I call thee?
‘I happy am,
Joy is my name.’
Sweet joy befall thee!
Pretty joy!
Sweet joy, but two days old.
Sweet joy I call thee:
Thou dost smile,
I sing the while,
Sweet joy befall thee!
