Relearning to be mindful when you eat is just like making your bed. You need to be willing to see when your bed is a mess of covers. Every time your bed looks like that, you have a choice to do something about it or not. If having a made bed is important to you, after choosing to make it day after day, it becomes the most natural thing in the world to hop (or drag) yourself out of bed in the morning and make it right away. It ceases to take that much effort because by then it is just habit. It is just what you do.
So the first step is being willing to acknowledge the bed is a mess. The second step is to take action. And, yup, it will be something you do every day.
