Nourishing ourselves and our loved ones is such a vitally important aspect of achieving vibrant health. In our culture, we tend to either have little regard for food or to look at it purely for its nutritional content.
It is so important to remember, though, that eating can and should nourish us on many levels: the joy we feel when we share a meal with loved ones, the satisfaction of seeing beautiful food prepared with skill and love, the comfort evoked by the scent of a beloved treat, and the pleasure of eating something delicious all add to our wellbeing in such a tangible way.
