PLAYING WITH YOUR FOOD BY KEALAH PARKINSON

T

ired of preachy articles telling you how easy it is to meditate through the chaos of the holidays? Me, too! Even though I write them, myself, I have been known to roll my eyes at some of the adages I read online and in print, espousing major perspective shifts as if they are easy as pie to make. (“Step One: Set boundaries with yourself and others!” Oh, okay then! Why didn’t I think of that? No stress involved now. … Right?!) If you’ve ever read pretty much anything I’ve written over the last two years, you already know my favorite go-to de-stressor is breathing. That’s right. Just breathing. Slooowly. In-ten-tion-alll-lyyyy. Re-peeeeat-ed-lyyyy …. Ahhh. (Isn’t that better?) But who can remember to breathe when there is so much else to focus on in this season? Shopping lists. Food prep. Gift wrapping. Hosting and party hopping. Unboxing and re-boxing and wrapping and unwrapping your purchases, your presents, yourself and your family in scarves and mittens until your head spins …. It can definitely be too much! Visual anchors, ornamental reminders, physical totems and more can remind us to stop, take three conscious breaths and re-set our perspective. But when the conversation is flowing, even those tools can fall by the wayside. That’s why my favorite holiday trick is mindful eating. Yes, it can be helpful for losing a few extra pounds (or not putting them on to begin with), but mindful eating in its simplest form is really about experience. Here’s a summary of my own first mindful eating experience, taken from my blog journey through 60 Days of Mini-Mindfulness. (from Day 23—Playing with Your Food: A Meditation for Every Age): I was first introduced to mindful eating in my late 20s at a Zen Buddhist sangha that a friend of mine belonged to at the time. … As a 29-year old who was newly engaged, planning a wedding and had recently moved to a new community at that time, I was definitely stressed out. My friend recognized it and invited me to a retreat her sangha was having not far from my new home. But being directionally challenged (and not having access to a handheld smart phone GPS system at that era in life—because they had yet to be invented), I got lost following my Yahoo! Maps printout, missed a turn and wound up arriving at the event quite late. All of the attendees—an eclectic group of various ages, races, genders and lifestyles—were already in silent meditation mode, the announcements and introductions long past over and done with. Presumably, walking meditation around the enormous acreage at the site grounds—a combination of woodlands and brush fields dappled with indigenous wildflowers and occasionally punctuated with stone statues or other artwork—was also complete. The group was in the process of gathering for lunch in a cozy clearing in the woods where we were all to experience silent mindful eating. I felt disruptive as I stumbled in, smiled in greeting at the various serene faces before me and viscerally felt my chaotic

energy crashing through the scene. Realizing I had also forgotten to grab the sack lunch I’d packed up for myself, I eventually stood up and left the group to go for my own walk around the grounds. In a moment, I found myself running. I didn’t know why I was running, but I felt compelled. Hysterically, I had a flash of Jane Eyre, running through the darkened night away from Mr. Rochester’s, landing eventually in a hollow of earth to be swallowed and protected and discovered in daylight by the divinely metaphoric sisters, Diana and Mary. Like Jane, I cast myself to the earth (my earth happened to be a bed of weeds and wildflowers bordering an Indiana corn field full of farm implements), weeping and wailing in gut-wrenching release. The energy in my hands and feet and body was so strong it nearly scared me. I flung off my glasses into the tall foliage around me and shook with tearful abandonment, crying just like a child. All of the toxins, all of the negativity, all of the fears and self-doubts poured out through my salty tears, mingling with the earth in an exercise of purging. It was an amazingly spiritual experience that went on for God only knows how long. At that time of my life, I was still in active addiction. I can’t say for certain if I had been using drugs or alcohol that week, but chances are good that I was. The guilt that I felt for my late arrival; the embarrassment at my rude, crude entry to the group; the shame at having mistakenly forgotten my lunch: All were due in large part, I’m sure, to the guilt, shame and embarrassment I carried with me throughout my daily life at my poor coping skills and unhealthy, illegal choices. This incredible and very spiritual experience I had then of letting go was a type of divine protection, both of me and for me. Eventually, the crying stopped, I sat up, groped through the grasses for my glasses and wound my way back through the woods to the group whom I was certain would be done eating lunch. My friend found me then, took me on a little unorthodox tour of the place, whispering to me all the while, assuring me that I was Kealah (KEY-la) Parkinson is a Communications Coach who lives in Crown Point with her husband and two young sons. She practices all of her own tools—and is currently offering customized workshops on Compassion Fatigue to healthcare facilities, spas, parents groups and pastors. Visit her website, coachkiki. com, or reach out to learn more: ask@coachkiki.com.


okay and that I should stay, then shared some extra lunch with me and led me back to the woods once more where I sat with a few stray diners who were contentedly taking their time to munch in absolute slow-motion. I did the same, and although I cannot tell you at all what I had to eat that day, I do know I was more connected to the food than I was to anything I had ever put in my body before that moment. Later in life, though not many years after this experience, I discovered Jon Kabat-Zinn’s (and his many co-authors’) book The Mindful Way through Depression. In addition to addiction, my brain has blessed me with depression … and at various intervals, hypomania, obsession and compulsion. The beauty is that mindfulness is an antidote to each of them. So, how do you eat mindfully? My favorite technique is a ubiquitous one that I like to call “The Raisin Game”: 1. Pick up one solitary raisin and notice what it feels like in your hand. Play with it. How light or heavy is it? 2. Study it. What does it look like? How big or small is it? How would you describe its color? 3. Smell your raisin. What does it remind you of or what memories

does it conjure? 4. Taste your raisin, first only with your tongue. Where on your tongue is it most flavorful? Have you really ever tasted the flavor of a raisin? Again, of what does it remind you? 5. Bite into your raisin. Notice the texture. Is the flavor the same or more complex with a bite? 6. Slowly chew your raisin and notice the sensations along your teeth and inside of your mouth. 7. When you are ready, swallow your raisin. Pay attention to how it moves along your digestive track. Feel the raisin inside of your body. 8. Thank your raisin. A very different kind of party game, “The Raisin Game” can be played as an intellectual pursuit among adults or multigenerationally as a teachable exercise. My own kiddos love to extend the final step, thanking the grocery store, the farmers and even the sunshine and rain for their raisins (and sometimes even Mommy). A great combination of gratitude and mindfulness, this game of intentionality slows the pace of life for just a moment and opens up awareness. It may even help you to slowly and consciously breathe at one of the busiest times of year.
