Nonjudgment is Gift #11 of the 12 Gifts of Mindful Eating. For 12 days, we are sharing a mini-mindful eating exercise to help you focus on the gift of each day. Each one is intentionally short, simple, and powerful.

Today notice when you’re being judgmental about eating (or anything else). Can you shift to a gentler attitude toward yourself and others?
Notice how nonjudgment frees you up to be more curious, calm, and compassionate.
