Soul Food

Good food nourishes the body, but also the soul. When we make our children nourishing, wholesome food, it adds to the love we give them. Although they may not be conscious of it, on some deep level it is vitally important. There is a difference, emotionally, psychologically and spiritually, as well as physically, between eating processed, factory-food and natural, home-cooked food. So when we feed our children good food, we benefit their physical health in an obvious, scientific way, but we also reach them in the deep primal layers of the human psyche. Conversely, when we fail to feed them well, we affect them detrimentally in a very deep way. We are neglecting their most primal need. They may have a full stomach, but when it’s not full with real nourishment, their deepest hunger remains unsatisfied.

Blessings on your table!
