Hold one of your hands out in front of you and close your eyes.. Breathe
slowly and evenly, breathing from your diaphragm.. Relax your mind, and
don't worry if this doesn't work perfectly the first time.. Now, in your
outstretched hand, feel yourself holding a fruit.. Let it be any sort of
fruit you like.. Hold the fruit there.. feel it in your hand, feel the
weight, feel the texture.. Is it smooth and heavy, or light and rough,
or something else? Imagine yourself peeling the fruit if it needs it, and
taking a very small bite.. Taste the fruit, feel it in your mouth.. feel
yourself eating the fruit.. Note the taste, note the consistancy.. swallow
the piece you bit off and feel it slide down your throat.. Bring the rest
of the fruit up to your nose.. Smell the fruit, notice every little detail
about the fruit.. Now, slowly open your eyes, and see the fruit there in
your hand.. See it as real, and take another bite.. Taste this bite
as you tasted the last one.. Finish eating the fruit, bite by bite, and
when it's done, let the image vanish.. close your eyes, and then open them
again.
