I’m working with the mindful eating process, which is improving little by little. Today it helped me to connect it with some ideas from “How to cook your life”, and how important it is to do one thing at a time. You can’t mindfully eating a zucchini while you are mentally reciting the chant, trying to feel grateful and watching TV plus talking to your partner. The zen way is monotasking. I think I understand now. I feel it very very important. So important that I’m adding it to my commitment:
Try to focus on one thing at a time
I know that most of the time I’ll forgot ( as if I almost forgot the metta meditation today) to monotask. And when I remenber it i’ll probably fall miserably most of the time. But at least I’ll keep the intention to do it everyday, not letting other stuff to intrude in my present activity, whatever that is
