This method will teach viewers how to choose what type of chocolate, how to savor each moment and other tips on how to use this delicious treat in meditation.

You may also choose to substitute chocolate with any food that gives you joy. If you are diabetic, fruits or raisins will be just as delicious and will work with this method.
