More than Just a Recipe Book

When you Cook from Your Heart,  you feed your body, mind, heart, and soul

The times in which we are living offer a choice between stress, fear, illness, confusion and despair or hope, renewal and transformation. In her book, Cook from Your Heart: Recipes for Transformation, renowned personal chef and food writer, Alice Louise Karow offers delectable recipes, inspiring stories and practical information as a guide to transforming your health and lifestyle in these challenging times.

She begins with the premise that our bodies are naturally transformational, responding to the instructions we consciously or unconsciously give via our eating habits, emotional states, breathing, sleep and exercise schedule, intellectual assumptions and behavior patterns.

Alice believes that what we feed our bodies and what we feed our souls are intimately intertwined and the choices we make have far reaching consequences in our own lives and the lives of others.

Cook from Your Heart is not a new diet plan, but rather a more conscious, heart centered approach to cooking, eating and daily living.

Simple recipes from Alice’s personal chef years meeting diverse clients’ needs - from meat, to vegetarian, vegan and raw foods dishes - make eating healthy the  easy choice. If you knew you could make your diet healthier without drastic changes, would you do it?

Inspiring personal stories and quotes from spiritual visionaries offer insightful guidance to feed your soul. If you knew the "eye of the needle" was your own heart within, how helpful would it be to have gentle reminders along the journey from decisive action, to gratitude and generosity to a state where effortless laughter and delight appear easily and frequently?

Practical food safety tips and nutrition information provide support at the market and in the kitchen.
