Healing Wisdom for Everyday Life
Eating for Healing
Eating for healing is opening you to an entirely new relationship with food. Often when we eat we do so out of habit, to soothe emotions or stress, or according to beliefs about what is “good” or “bad.” When you connect to food is it at the level of your mind, your body, or your Spirit? With awareness and practice you can elevate eating to the level of your intuitive Spirit!

Not Stuffing, Stuffing
Not-Stuffing Stuffing is a personal favorite and one I’ve even been able to share with meat-eaters who have enjoyed it.
Cooking during the holidays can often feel heavy along with the emotions and busyness that drain our energy during the holidays. The key to happy/healthy holidays is to create balance! The traditional dishes we share at the holidays are so filled with love, many are passed down from generation to generation. One way to bring more Qi and cheer is to bring up the shared memories that infuse these dishes! Not stuffing, Stuffing is a lighter offering to integrate into your feast.
Check out this post and video to add this to your table this holiday season!

How to Cook Mung Beans
Oh, humble mung (moong in Ayurveda) bean. Tiny and green but ooooohhhh so mighty. Your Liver loves them. They help detox your Liver, and clear “heat” from the body (such as a fever, rash, or itching). Mung beans help your body separate what it needs from what it is ready to let go of.
If you only cook to the Lentil state you can add to soups, make into a spicy “mung bean hash” (scallions, cajun spice, I’ve even added in avocado!) or if a mushy soup it mixes well with the barley for a breakfast soup.
