Mindfulness and breathing – a good idea to help with diets?
Author

I've just read that it might be helpful to practise conscious breathing to become a better feel for your body and what it actually wants, which in turn helps you establish whether youp're actually hungry or just have an appetite - does anyone think that's a good idea?
I'm not quite sure how that would work... would it make you forget to be hungry, perhaps, while you're concentrating on breathing?
Think it's meant to focus you on your body and its needs more, ie. to find out when you're really hungry, and not just have an appetite 
I think getting in touch with what your body really wants is a great idea, but I'm not sure if breathing is enough to do that.
Have you read Paul Mckenna's 'I can make you thin'? In it he says that we have learnt to ignore our bodies signals so we eat when we're not hungry and dont recognize the full signal so over eat...

Sounds interesting, thanks Lady_Witch
That is a good idea. Will definitely try it next time
