Breez Kitchen
Although we believe that health expands beyond the kitchen and gym, food is still an important and necessary part of life.
When you really think about it, food doesn’t start in the kitchen.
There are many steps and processes that it goes through before it even reaches your kitchen.
We generally think about food in terms of macros, calories, portions, and diets and often forget, or, are unaware of, the gardens, farms, and locations it comes from, and the environmental impact it has. We rarely consider the information it carries, the emotion it channels and the energy that is exchanged with it. Food beyond the kitchen (and even in the kitchen) has opportunities that surround its growing, purchasing, preparing, serving and consuming.
When we keep this in mind, we recognize that food affects both our inner and outer ecology.
Perhaps you suffer from food allergies or intolerances, are diabetic, on a restricted diet due to leaky gut, a candida or yeast overgrowth?
Maybe you need that extra edge to perform better mentally or physically, to stay more balanced emotionally, to feel more connected spiritually?
When you are dealing with these issues, it is important to look at what you are putting into your body to support it for optimal healing or function.
We also see value in looking at food how nature intended and how we’ve evolved to thrive for most of our time on this planet:
- * eating locally
- * eating with the seasons
- * eating real, whole foods
- * exhibiting reverence
- * creating a relaxed, enjoyable eating environment
- * eating to thrive
- * investing time and effort into the full food experience
When you pay attention to where your food comes from, how it is made, what season it is available in, the way you consume it…
…Then you are engaging your environment and bringing yourself closer to reaching your full human potential.
