by Doris Cáceres-SchumickTake five to ten minutes of your day to savor the present moment. Slow down and become more mindful of your food. Enjoy your favorite treat but eat it very slowly. Focus on its smell, texture, sight, sound, and taste. Can you guess my favorite summer fruit to savor in my poem below? Bright reddish yellow Irresistible tantalizing fragrance Soft fuzzy Velvety texture Ripe juicy fruit Ready to be enjoyed What’s your favorite treat? Using the five senses, how would you describe it? Jot down your thoughts, write a poem about it, or just think about it in your mind. If you’re compelled, feel free to share below.

I find this meditation very helpful! Slowing down helps me think more clearly and foster greater appreciation. My favorite summer treat is as follows using just a few of the senses: plump and round, I could easily pick this smooth fruit by the pound. Yellow or red on the inside and purple on the outside this treat is oh so sweet! Thank you for this reflection!

I'm guessing you ate a peach, Doris? My favorite summer treat is a gin and tonic. It's so refreshing and has such a citrus snap. I do enjoy every sip.

Blakke guessed a peach! He also said that he has never had one but knows that some people are allergic to peaches. I guess he will be trying a peach this week!

Yes Brandi! Please tell Blakke that his guess is right on! 🍑 I hope he won't be allergic to them and will love them just as much as me. 😊 Comments are closed.
