“Krishna never becomes hungry. He wants to taste the mood of bhakti through the offering of any preparation. He never tastes plantain, rabadi, milk, or anything. He only tastes the essence of those offerings, which is love and affection."

                                                              ~Krishna the Lord of Sweetness, 
                                                              by 
Srila Bhaktivedanta Narayana Gosvami Maharaja



High Prana, High Vibe

As a Certified Holistic Chef, Nutrition Consultant, and Yoga Teacher, I use food and ritual as nourishing, pleasurable medicine for releasing stagnations of the body, mind and spirit to enhance one's Prana, or life-force energy. By using fresh, quality ingredients that strive to come close to their source, combined with creativity and devotional intention, we'll bring your body back to her/his/their original aliveness!

Much of my own suffering in my food journey has been about nourishing not only my
body, but my emotions and my spirit. I've often used food as a way to get grounded, to add pleasure to my life when feeling lonely (a message about what we need, perhaps?), or to distract from boredom or pain. A truly satisfying meal can meet our needs, so we can feel actual satiation in our belly and spirits. 

I meal-making magic, I delight the senses, using whole-food-based cooking techniques combined with traditional and immune-boosting, healing food preparation. I most enjoy using seasonal and locally grown produce (when possible!) herbs, spices, fruits, vegetables, greens, grains, beans and sweets.

Satisfy with all our Senses

​​​a healer's philosophy

Conscious creation, true health unfolds easily.
Gratitude toward the earth, 
the sun, the rain and the people.
Kiss every inch of skin with words of love.
Stop suffering to begin living fully.

Less worry about time.  Become aware 
of the change being made.
Be daring. Let go.
See the beauty of all that unfolds within
​and universally.
