Food is medicine, which Ayurveda has taught for 5,000 years. Cooking is also a sacred art. The Lord has given us the plants of the earth to nourish our bodies and minds, and as we prepare fresh food, when we are mindful of this, it is an expression of gratitude and love for God, ourselves, and those we cook for.
This video is from Aparna Khanolkar, who was the head chef at the Chopra Center. It's an invitation to join her for a workshop that has already taken place, but her explanation of food as medicine is one I like. She has also written several books on Ayurveda.
