*Only eat when you're hungry. As in, you're genuinely hungry—that is, your last meal has been entirely digested. It's possible that we think we're hungry when, in fact, we're just dehydrated. Tune in to your body and relearn what it's like to be truly hungry.
*Eat in a relaxing and peaceful environment. When you eat, sit down and eat with as little distraction as possible: no television, book, phone, or laptop.
*Take the proper amount of food. We are all unique individuals with varying demands, stomach sizes, and metabolic rates. Pay attention to your body and eat only till you're satisfied.
*Indulge in hot foods. Freshly prepared is ideal, but as long as you stay away from anything straight from the fridge, your digestive power will be preserved (agni). This enables your digestive enzymes to function properly.
*Supplement your diet with high-quality foods. Make your meal juicy or a slightly oily to help with digestion and nutritional absorption. Dry foods should be avoided.
*Avoid eating incompatible foods together. This could result in a stomach ache. Fruits and milk, fish and milk, and other foods are examples of incompatible foods.
*Be conscious of
what you're eating. Make use of all five of your senses. Take time to enjoy the aroma of your food, the appearance of your plate, the texture of your food, the many flavours, and the sounds you make while eating.
*Don't eat too quickly. Don't just gulp your food; chew it thoroughly. Chewing is an important part of the digestive process.
*Eat at proper time and follow the cycles of nature
