What Does Finding God in Gourmet Mean?

The easiest way I can explain it is “being in the zone”. We are all born of Creator, and therefore, born to create.  So every time you create something beautiful, you connect to Self and Source. The more present you are, the more amazing your creation. This includes everything! Painting, music, writing, quilting, sports, and my favorite, cooking.  

Finding God in Gourmet is a way for you to be  conscious in your daily life, especially when you cook. A conscious cook is focused, sets an intention, is aware and is thankful. Finding God in Gourmet means recognizing the spiritual aspect and blessing of creating food for yourself and family.

For example, you look for ways God is talking to you while you cook.  What lessons are being offered to you in the recipe you are following? Are you able to see how much love is present just by the fact that you have access to an abundance of ingredients? Finding God in Gourmet is reconnecting to your childhood wonder of the miracle of how things grow, the rich green of basil, the smell of an orange, the sweetness of sugar.  

We lose connection with God when we take things for granted and don’t take time to really appreciate our many blessings.  You can’t be thankful and angry at the same time. You can’t be thankful and depressed at the same time.  Finding God in Gourmet is a way to elevate and edify your daily life. It is a way for you to create zen time while you cook; to transform making dinner from drudgery to delight, from a chore to a cherished time of day. For some of you, that seems like a miracle. Well, miracles happen when you are in the zone!

It takes practice and commitment. It takes setting an intention that cooking equals connection - with yourself, and with God. It takes asking and then opening your heart to receive.
It will NOT take any more of your time, as you already have cooking dinner on your list.

I share my recipes on my website FindingGodInGourment.com and on my YouTube channel
Maile Andrus-Price. I’m working on including a spiritual thought at the end of every recipe.  My website includes “bites of wisdom” that have come to me while cooking.  You may find them quite enlightening, take a few minutes to check it out.

I invite and encourage you to find God in Gourmet. I know it will change cooking dinner from a chore to a cherished time of day and bring you joy and peace. It has for me. I will soon be offering courses to help you do this.  If you would like to know when these courses are available,
please contact me through my website, or [email protected], or message me on Facebook.
