Foundations of personal and family wellness:
Ancient foods for modern times

A resurgence of traditional foods in the mainstream indicates many want to reclaim ways of nourishing ourselves, especially amidst poor quality food supply, rising food prices, and the incessant increase of stress on our bodies and minds.

Recurrent seasonal sickness, fatigue, and poor digestion and elimination can point to needing more deep nourishment and stronger immunity. The busyness of life, both the good parts and the unwanted parts, keep many from having the time to devote to the experimentation and discovery of wise ways in the kitchen. Yet our lagging health also costs us in time, money and reduced vibrancy. This workshop is an opportunity to develop familiarity and comfort with smart foods that you’ll lean on for sustaining health that won’t cost too much and are readily available, and easy to make once you learn.

Description:

Learn the art and science of three key recipes for wellness that nurture and maintain wellness, especially during winter months.

Spend two immersive days cultivating your own wise-food ways in a small group setting and forever keep the recipes, the process, and the health you gain.

Get hands-on learning and demystify what your ancestors knew about nourishment. Spend 5 hours each day in a small group (limit 6) learning and participating in creating:

• Sauerkraut to equip your gut to fight off colds and flu, assist vitamin and mineral uptake, and support heart and mental health too.
