The Art of Awakened Eating expounds upon the mystical, healing, and awakening potentials of the foods we eat and how we eat them. The book is divided into two parts; the first part containing essays about the art of awakened eating, and the second part containing 74 nourishing, mostly plant based recipes, with a small portion dedicated to animal foods. In Part One, the author provides guidance for experiencing food in a sacred context, and timely warnings about the dangers of misusing food. With a modern, common sense approach, she shares practical advice on digestion, working with food energies, and how to eat in harmony with the planet. Part 2 contains the recipes, including two unique chapters dedicated solely to water and breathing. Magical elixirs, simple soups, raw gourmet, and hearty cooked dishes are all a part of the awakened foods variety. You'll no doubt leave this book with a changed perspective on food
