overeating

Many of us overeat.  I don't mean that we go crazy and eat insane amounts of food.  I mean that we eat when we don't need to.  We eat when we are not hungry.  We eat because we are bored, or anxious, or tired.  The same goes for drinks.  One drink I think our society tends to overemphasize is water.  I believe water is good.  I also believe it can be overdone.  If we eat and drink more when we are hungry and thirsty and less because of all the "health" articles we read that tell us what we are "supposed" to be  doing, I think we will feel better.  Too much consuming puts stress on the organs and doesn't allow our bodies the down time they need to digest and relax properly.
