Oprah Winfrey is recognized as one of the most powerful females in the world. An outstanding TV hostess,
and an influential producer are among the titles she is known as.
She was born in Kosciusko, Mississippi, on January 29, 1954. As a child, she lived with poverty and
mistreatment. Although she was not offered everything on a silver platter, she still overcame her childhood
struggles and made her mark in the world.
How did Oprah Winfrey overcome the setbacks and build her career from zero? It started when she was 19 and
won the Miss Black Tennessee beauty contest. This was her stepping stone towards her journey to work in the
media. She started her career as a radio and TV hostess in Nashville. Then she moved to Baltimore, Maryland,
where she hosted a local talk show called People Are Talking. This show gained popularity and this eventually led
to her own national talk show The Oprah Winfrey Show, which ran for 25 seasons and was the highest-rated talk
show in the history of television.
Oprah has a heart of gold and has been a supporter of many causes over the course of her career, such as
education, health, and wellness. She has used her platform to inspire, teach, and entertain people worldwide
through her charity organization known as the Oprah Winfrey Network. She also took a step for the education of
girls in South Africa by starting the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy.
Oprah Winfrey’s life is a true example of where being strong and determined can lead you. She has shown
people that if you put your mind to something, you can achieve it. The lesson we can learn from her is that no
matter how hard things get, you can always find the strength to keep going and reach your goals.

Mindful eating is maintaining an in-the-moment awareness of the food and drink you put into your body. For
many of us, our busy daily lives often make mealtimes rushed things. We find ourselves eating in the car going to
work, at the desk in front of a computer screen, or parked on the couch watching TV. We eat mindlessly, taking
food down regardless of whether we’re still hungry or not. In fact, we often eat for other reasons instead of hunger
— to satisfy emotional needs, to free from stress, or deal with unpleasant emotions such as sadness, anxiety,
loneliness, or boredom. Mindful eating is the opposite of this kind of unhealthy “mindless” eating.
Mindful eating isn’t about being perfect, always eating the right things, or never allowing yourself to eat on-
the-go again. And it’s not about establishing strict rules for which foods you have to include or avoid in your diet.
Rather, it’s about focusing all your senses and being present as you shop for, cook, serve, and eat your food.
While mindfulness isn’t for everyone, many people find it worth trying. By paying close attention to how you
feel as you eat, you can learn to enjoy both your food and the experience of eating. It can keep you full with less
food, and influence wiser choices about what you eat in the future. It can also help you free yourself from
unhealthy habits.
To practice mindfulness, you need to participate in an activity with total awareness. In the case of mindful
eating, it’s important to eat with all your attention rather than on multitasking (reading, watching TV, daydreaming,
etc). When your attention moves away, gently bring it back to your food and the experience of cooking, serving,
