What Is Mindful Snacking?

Snacking is a growing behavior around the world. Yet snacking is about so much more than what you eat. People want convenient and delicious snacks they feel good about eating, while also seeking balance when making their snack choices.1

Mindful Snacking is an approach to eating with intention and attention. It’s about being conscious of what it is you want to eat, why you’re eating, and how it makes you feel. So you don’t have to choose between snacking and eating right for the moment.

Mindful Snacking Benefits

Focusing on the present moment can help you discover a more satisfying and positive snacking experience.

More and more people use mindfulness for well-being and to balance their lifestyle.
Mindful eating can be practiced by anyone, anywhere, anytime.
Research clearly shows multiple benefits of mindful eating and the evidence continues to build.

How It Works

Mindful Snacking can be practiced anywhere, anytime and by anyone in three simple steps. The next time you choose to snack, check in with yourself and ask these important questions.

Why Do I Want To Snack?

  • Are you snacking because you need energy or are you hungry?
  • Is this snack providing a pause in your day?
  • Is your situation prompting you to snack, such as being in a social gathering with food?
  • Is this a treat?

Determining why you want to snack can help you choose what to eat to meet your needs in the moment.

What Do I Want For A Snack?

  • Are you looking for sweet or savory?
  • Creamy or crunchy?
  • Hot or cold?

Once you decide what you want to eat, portion out your snack and reduce distractions to help you enjoy your snacking experience. Also, slow down the pace of eating and check in with yourself to see if you are satisfied with your snack.

How Can I Savor My Snack?

Use all of your senses to savor your snack. Focus on the smells, tastes, textures, shapes and colors of your food to fully enjoy your snacking experience. And remember to check in with yourself to see if you are satisfied.

Go Slow

Reflect

Texture

Taste

Enjoy The Aroma

Give each bite your full attention. Enjoy your snack experience just a little bit longer.

Be sure to fully finish your bite before taking the next. Pause and check to see if you are full and satisfied.

Notice the mouth feel of complimentary textures.

Savor fully the tastes you experience.

Take the time to savour the aroma of your snack.
