Here is a fun Awareness and Attention exercise to sharpen your practice and enhance your enjoyment of this yummy soup:
- Take a bite of the soup.
- Bring your attention to the various flavors in your mouth.
- Move your attention first to the cantaloupe, then a blueberry, next the yogurt.
- Notice what it's like to direct the attention while you eat.
- Extra Credit: Move your attention to the field of awareness. What does having attention on awareness do to your experience of eating? Record and Listen.
