Aloha! 

I use food, nourishment and experience from my own journey to support people to heal and transform any self rejection to self love.  Self love promotes self care, heals the collective unconscious, and honors ourselves and Earth.  I translate the wisdom of our connection to nature, using the Taoist 5 element perspective.  To encourage alignment with our natural world, I create opportunities for people to “receive” nourishment on all levels and to embrace their worthiness of it. 

Here are a few of my current opportunities to honor yourself

Divine Nourishment

& Deepen 

Your Relationship with Food

6 Week Evening Course 

Wednesdays

June 20th, 27th, July 11th, 18th, 25th, Aug 1st

6:30 – 8:30

I have discovered after many years of supporting women improve the health benefits of their diets it is not just about eating healthier. For some it becomes another chore on their to do list. Many suffer a backlash for no apparent conscious reason after applying a new way of eating. It is a common need to reprogram and embrace their relationship with food before they can apply healthier eating habits.

Our relationship with food, and our ability to receive its nourishment is a symptom of how we feel about ourselves, our strong conditioning, and our disconnection from our own inner natural body wisdom. If we are to open to the Divine nourishment life has to offer, a very powerful doorway is through addressing our relationship with food.

Transforming and embracing this relationship automatically reverberates out and into all areas of our lives and world. In this course we will explore, share, discover, heal, embrace and celebrate our relationship with nourishment. We will apply it to our daily eating habits with practical grounded ways to integrate it into our lives. And we will connect the dots of this seemingly mundane act to nature’s masterful map for transformation aligned with her wisdom.

*Explore your relationship with nourishment and ability to receive it

*Awaken and align your own body’s wisdom with nature

*Learn how seasonal, local foods support your health & transformation

Garden to Plate

 Please join my good friend Kranto and I for our garden/cook course. We weave our combined skills, knowledge and wisdom to guide you through the process, step by step in creating and tending a backyard garden, harvesting, and preparing seasonal meals.

Kranto is a master gardener and can guide you no matter if you have a small terrace garden, or large garden plot, and anything in between. Her knowledge in building the soil, composting and growing worms is deep and accessible so anyone can do it.

I will then support you to lay a strong foundation in how to cook simple, healthy, seasonal meals from the garden, drawing upon your creativity and inspiration combined with alignment with the wisdom of nature.

You will learn practical skills as well as a perspective to cooking and gardening that brings in our sacred relationship with the Earth and plant kingdom.

You will experience an awakening of the wise woman within as we open the door to our ancient knowing ignited by our hands in the dirt, planting, tending, harvesting, cooking, making medicine, potions, tonics and celebrating our relationship with life.

Stay tuned for our dates!

Meet my friend Kranto

I don’t know if I garden to cook, or cook to garden. I do know that they are my passions.  Over the last 60 years I have had gardens, from terrace gardens, backyard gardens, to an 60 acre truck farm.  I have lived in many countries around the world learning their foods and gardening/farming techniques, searching the markets for food and cooking utensils. My methods have always been organic: I’ve explored the French Method, The Steiner Method, the Companion Method, The intensive Method, working with indigenous people’s planting methods and the list can go on. At this moment in time, I’m going to Kenya where I will start my visit on a small farm outside of Nairobi. Over the years I have taken what worked for me and used them in my gardens. My interest in the moment is to help people create their personal gardens, no matter the size, that reflects their desires for food, flowers and fun.  And how to create a garden that one can walk into and walk out with the basket filled with what one needs to create great, good tasting, and creative dishes.  I would love to share my experience with you.
