People in my therapy groups often talk about food. When they do, I sometimes invite them to expand their thoughts to different kinds of nourishment. We also do an exercise when we practice mindful eating and think about food in a more in-the-moment way.
Yesterday, when somebody was eating food in one of the two online groups I facilitate on Thursdays, I talked about how I had once been a member of a group where the leader did not allow people to eat or drink. When I had tried to drink from my water bottle in her group, she stopped me and invited me to put my feelings into words. When I tried to put into words why I thought that was food for thought, I could tell that people were grateful that I didn’t have that rule.
Do you see food for thought in my images for today?

Happy National Sachertorte Day!
Here’s what I find when I search YouTube for “food for thought.”

Thanks to all who provide food for thought, including YOU!
