Mindful Cooking Class

Learn to combine mindfulness practise with cooking or baking for your new favourite therapeutic experience.

Is this for you?

This class is for you if you often feel stressed, overwhelmed or frustrated. If you wish to incorporate more effortless self-care and 'You' time into your routine, but lack the time or are not sure where and how to start. It's also for you if you've tried meditation and relaxation techniques but are struggling.

What to expect:

Leave your day behind and immerse yourself in the design and preparation of delicious personalised dishes in a whole new way. What you'll create will undoubtedly taste fantastic, but more than that, this class aims to help you explore how individual steps and techniques of specific recipes have the power to shift your mood and headspace. Imagine it all as a fun cook-along with a handful of mystery ingredients and plenty of flavouring and finishing variations to make your dish uniquely your own.

In my classes, you will learn how to zoom in on your kitchen routine and enhance everything you do with a touch of intentional mindfulness. Engage all your senses and reconnect with yourself through the work of your hands. Focus your mind and learn to use cooking as a means to unwind, decompress, disrupt or filter your thought processes.

Everything you learn you can then use as easy effective self-help tools whenever, wherever and for free.

Choose from two themes:

• Mindful Cooking Foundations Class: discover the basics of mindfulness in cooking and prepare a chicken shawarma dish with vibrant herby couscous and warm vegetable salad.
• Child's Play Class: build on the principles you've learned in the Foundations class and nourish your inner child whilst creating a colourful nutritious mezze spread.

The classes are great one-on-one, for individuals, couples or as a group booking. Having said that, the aim is for everyone to indulge in a little 'Me' time.

Classes are great as a gift for your partner, friend, parent. They work lovely as a date night idea and can be modified to suit any birthday, hen or stag plans as well.

Classes are suitable for all levels, but are recommended especially for beginner and intermediate cooks.
