Breathe: A Holistic Wellness Event – Raw Food Preparation Class #54

July 15, 2017 No comments Article

I never like going to the hospital.  I don’t like the scent of a hospital.  I don’t like seeing hospital beds and look of sadness in the eyes of sick people.

But somehow my work keeps bringing me to hospitals.  From 2008 to 2013, I worked as a Communications Campaigner for Health Care Without Harm-Asia, a non-government organization handling environmental issues in the health care setting.  That work meant visiting the hospitals a lot and meeting doctors, nurses, and other health care workers.

Soon after I left the job, I thought my hospital work is over.  But seems it is not.  I guess it’s part of my mission.  To bring natural healing through food and yoga to everyone and that means even those or most especially those in the hospital.

Check out the photos here.

FOOD Tastings

November 5, 2016 No comments Article

It’s my second FOOD Tastings events with Moulinex Philippines!  When I joined my first, I was happy to present raw vegan dishes with other chefs.  But I admit to be a bit disappointed.  All the other chefs presented dishes based on flavor and food plating.  Not a single one mentioned the health benefits of each dish or each ingredient.

Moulinex Masterchef 2000: the next best thing in your kitchen

So you’ve decided to eat healthier and eat more raw, bought all the right ingredients, and made those lovely salads and eat those fresh fruits.  But somehow you’re craving for something more.  Something that resembles a cooked dish.  What do you do?  It’s time to shop for the right equipment.

First things first.  When I made that decision to really take charge of what’s on my plate, I knew I had to slowly shop for the right equipment for my kitchen.  First thing on my list was a blender.  You need it to make smoothies, salad dressings, soups, and everything that needs thorough blending.  But somehow I needed more.

The search for the right food processor began.  The difference between the two?  With  a blender, the juice comes out of the food.  Food processor just cuts the food into small pieces without extracting the juice.

So it’s the last of the 5 series workshop at Healthy Eats and it’s the most attended.  We had fun, as always.  We made 5 different kinds of bread – my ultimate comfort food – and talked about food dehydration.  For our intimacy question, everyone has to reveal their presidentail, vice presidential, and top 3 senatorial bets.
