Abstract
Health is important to all human beings, but everybody realized it only after the recent pandemic due to COVID-19. Food is an important item to maintain good health. But, sometimes, other factors like the environment, be it at the domestic front or the workplace, also influence your mental and physical health. Due to stress from external factors, we may do mindless eating sometimes that will spoil our health later. On the other hand, mindful eating can lead to a greater psychological wellbeing. Research has proved that mindful eating is good for both physical and mental health, whereas mindless eating spoils our health. The authors have conducted a survey to understand the awareness of mindful and mindless eating and their impact on individual's health – both physical as well as mental health. It was recommended that one has to follow “food life balance,” just like “work life balance,” in order to be healthy to take-up the responsibilities of personal life as well as the career.
