What is a Conscious Kitchen?
A Conscious Kitchen is all about having clarity and awareness (without unnecessary anxiety) about everything to do with what we eat. It means enjoying food and caring for nutrition and health in a simple and natural way. It is also about choosing the foods we eat for the right reasons.
Conscious Kitchen basically involves being conscious about:
1.    Where our food comes from
2.    What it really is
3.    How good it is (or isn’t) for our bodies and the environment
4.    What kind of cooking is needed for different foods
5.    The energy (internal and external!) we use for cooking
6.    How we store food
7.    How we clean up and handle our wastes

The Need to be Conscious about our food?

We work long hours and don’t spend much time to make our food, we are surrounded by a mind-boggling variety of foods, and the food we get has changed unbelievably during the last 20 years.

We are also bombarded with advertisements and dazzling packaging, and much of these are aimed at getting children to decide what food they’ll eat.

Thousands of scientists are working on how to make food tasty with the least cost, with the most shelf life – just as thousands of scientists worked on war weapons before the 2nd world war – without giving a second thought to long term implications for human health or ecological sanity.

What can we do?

All over the world, there is a new awakening about food and the ecology of our planet. There is a growing movement about organic and natural foods and building up our immune systems rather than become dependent on an increasingly industrialized medical system. And there are many who are getting back to delicious food, family togetherness through cooking and eating and the conscious kitchen.
You can have your conscious kitchen only in your way. But we can share information, ideas and the sheer joy of community learning and eating.
