The way we eat shapes the way we live. Too often, meals are swallowed in haste, blurred with screens, or forgotten altogether. The sense of life withers in this rush.

To restore it, begin simply: eat at regular times, and eat without scrolling. Even if the meal is small, let it be a pause. Sit at a table, place the food before you, and give it your attention.

Regular mealtimes are not just about digestion. They are rhythms that steady the body and soul, like the beating of a drum. They say: life is trustworthy, life has a pulse. And by eating without distraction, we allow the food to truly meet us—body and soul alike.

Try it this week: Choose one meal a day to eat without your phone or screen. Let it be your practice of re-anchoring in life.
