“When you are stirring the pot, stir the pot!” That’s one of Michael Polland advises, as he explains how cooking [or baking in this case], not only is a good to ensure a healthy diet, but also, is a great way to practice mindfulness and really Be in the present moment.
I love preparing my own meals and the entire process that it entails, from doing my groceries to sharing what I have prepared with my family and friends. Cooking and baking is a great way to channel my creativity, it gives me a sense of purpose and really helps me quiet the thoughts and concerns that are constantly running in my head. It truly is a physical and mental therapy!
