Conscious Family Living Conscious Cooking is the art of preparing food in a state of awareness and infusing your dishes with the most important ingredient of all…LOVE!

Food tastes better when its prepared with your loving intentions and when you bring your full presence and awareness to creating food, you have an opportunity to slow down and remember who you are cooking for and why.
 

 

Start with creating a “Sacred Kitchen”
Sacred Kitchen

A Sacred Kitchen is creating your space with special intentions, so that you are reminded each time you step into your kitchen to cook with care and love.

Here are some quick ideas from my book, Organically Raised on how to set up a sacred kitchen.

Firstly, be aware of your mood as you begin your cooking process. Let stress melt away by taking three deep breaths, each time inhaling love and exhaling stress. Allow the joy of cooking for your family to fill your body and mind.

Sacred Kitchen Tips

  1. Smile! The simple act of smiling can brighten your mood and lift your spirits.
  2. Decorate your cooking space with photos of  your family. The pictures will remind you why you’re preparing each meal.
  3. Find a way to mark the beginning and end of your meal preparation. For example, ring a small gong or put on some relaxing music.
  4. Hang this mantra in your kitchen: “Every meal prepared in this kitchen will be done with love, joy, and the intention of feeding my family in body, mind, and spirit.”
