I had the extraordinary pleasure of spending a “Get it Done Day” with a client yesterday. We started around the kitchen table talking about her health concerns and some possible diet choices that would support her goals. Then we went to the grocery store and explored ways to make healthier choices there. And we cooked together.
What a gift! To see someone lighting up because their fear and confusion around healthy eating has been addressed. To realize that eating healthy can not only be easy but delicious. To see them beaming with confidence and excited about shopping for and preparing meals for their family.
While we were talking her husband wandered in and out. At first, he was inclined to be skeptical. I sorta got the impression that he thought diets are women’s things. But as he overheard us talking about the health benefits of bacon (see more about healthy fats here) he saw that maybe he could be on board with this too.
Then her parents stopped by and asked which probiotic they should be taking. I had brought samples of the brand I use (which you can buy here). I gave a week’s worth to her father.
It was busy in her kitchen :)
I love eating good food. I love shopping when I get to connect with the farmers and the source of my nourishment. I love cooking, mixing flavors, inventing new dishes, anticipating giving pleasure to the people who will eat with me. I love creating an atmosphere that is calm and relaxing and feeds the soul as well as the body.
And I feel so very blessed when I get to support others on the journey of discovering just how yummy healthy can be.
