Sharing meals with other people

Eating meals with others has numerous psychological, social, and biological advantages. They provide us with a feeling of rhythm and regularity in our lives, as well as an opportunity to reflect on the day and connect with others. Eating on upright seats aids our digestion biologically. Talking and listening also slow us down, allowing us to eat more slowly. Set aside at least one day a week to eat with family and friends to make the most of mealtimes. Choose an easy-to-prepare meal to avoid making it a chore. Share responsibilities so that everyone has a separate duty to complete, such as shopping, preparing the table, cooking, or cleaning up. Turn off the TV so you can all chat and share.
