We are what we eat

Nutrition is all about balance. You can overdo anything, and you can under-do anything. Overindulgence can be as bad as neglect; a good lesson here is that over-eating certain foods can incur deficiencies, as minerals can compete for absorption. The safest route to take is to let yourself relax, and select foods from a very wide spectrum. I have access to many resources that will help you find out what foods may be most appropriate for you in your current situation, and since we're dynamic beings, we need reliable resources that will help us find out what foods will be appropriate for us in any number of situations.
When experimenting and researching wisely, we can know how foods react in our bodies, we can be more aware of what nutrients are in certain foods, and how certain constitutions do better or worse with particular combinations of foods. By tapping into reliable nutritional resources and sharing with each other our own stories about what has worked and what has not, we will feel better supported, and better informed by the body, so as to make our own informed decisions on how we want to approach what we eat, and what not to eat.
We must re-train our body to get back into a natural relationship with food, and to help us see foods as having a function and purpose in life.
At the table
All meals are locally sourced, vegetarian, vegan, and made with love.
There will be a qualified Live Food Chef joining the team, serving up mostly organic produce. The menu will consist of Vegetarian/ Vegan meals, with the exception of Fish and Seafood.
There will be opportunity for those who would like to help in the preparation of meals. This is a wonderful way to visualize and participate in how it all comes together. This way, all mysteries about what ingredients one should choose, questions about where the food comes from, seeing what ingredients are actually being used, how the food is being prepared, and all the “whys” one can imagine, will be answered.
