Shifting into Neutral to Coast

One of my frequent routes is very hilly. I have a 2000 Honda Accord V6 automatic trans. My gas mileage increases if I shift into neutral going down the hills and then at the bottom of the hills shift back into drive and ease into the pedal. I probably do that 20 times or more on trip one way. Is that bad for my engine/transmission to do that regularly?

Thanks.
