Social zeitgebers like eating at consistent times can be paired with brief appreciation practices to foster interdependence and presence.

“So eating for example as a zeitge um we eat typically at roughly similar times every day at least most people and that's an opportunity uh you do that every day you can pair a little practice with that um and you know one of the practices that you can do which I do every time I eat virtually unless I'm meeting with someone and it's awkward um but I do it at home is do a little appreciation practice spend just a um 30 to to 90 seconds reflecting on all the people it took to have food on your plate.”
