This is an exploration class of food and our spiritual journey through the lenses of Energy, Chakras, and Spiritual and Intuitive Development.

This class mirrors aspects of my quest to heal my relationship with food and eating.  The intention of sharing information and my journey is to offer insights for those with similar  paths in regards to food and eating OR as an approach to take in deconstructing and unlearning those things that keep you from living the life you want to, to live your dream.

Topics will offer opportunities for us to learn about and discuss food as it impacts our physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and cultural aspects and energies. 

And yes, we will most likely be eating some food :)
