FOOD MEDITATION
AND
EMBODIED SENSORIAL FOOD CONNECTION
1 : 1 SESSIONS
The sessions will help you explore the needs of your physical, emotional and energetic body in relation to the food resources available according to the season and the local terroir.
The method is based on an innovative and intuitive approach that is combining scientific food knowledge + hands on culinary experience, tantric exercises to connect to the body through the portals of the senses, personalised food meditation, sensorial food exploration and many more.
During the guidance, you will cultivate a deeper relationship to the food ingredients of your choice and at the same time you will be guided to be attentive to the information on the needs of your body, your inner guidance, wisdom and intuition. You will also receive practical guidance on how to use food ingredients in a wholesome and innovative way that will serve the needs of your bodies.
WHAT IS THIS ABOUT?
The personal food sessions are a tailor made guidance to help you re establish your relationship with food in an holistic way combining food knowledge, cooking experience, meditations to connect to your body and to the essence of the foods as well as practices to feel in alignment with the Earth.
During the guidance, you will be working with the ingredients that you feel the calling to explore more or that have been a lot in your life lately. You will also explore foods with which you have had an unbalanced relationship with, such as an addiction, impulse or intolerance. During the meditations, we will connect to the energy and essence of each ingredient. You will learn about their biology, their life cycle in connection to the Earth and the different ways you could be using them in for your nourishment. You will also learn to receive the messages and information they have for your body.
You will be guided through creative ways to use the food elements in a wholesome way in your daily cooking schedule. You will explore different ways to prepare the food ingredients and how to alchemise them through cooking in a way that will serve the needs of your bodies. Special alchemical ways that also preserve the nutritional value, the qualities as well as the etheric energy of the food element itself.
You will also explore the connection of food and raw materials in the food settings and the aesthetics of food presentation and how it can affect you in the way you receive and witness food in your daily life.
You will collect the information that will come through your body and learn to nurture and maintain this connection even after the sessions.
THE THREE PARTS OF THE GUIDANCE
PART 1 // THE LOVED ONE
We start the sessions with the loved one. The food ingredient that you feel connected to and the one that is calling you a lot lately. The food ingredient that your body is intuitively drawn to or the one that you feel particularly related to this season.
PART 2 // THE RESISTANCE
We continue the guidance by diving deeper towards the food ingredient you would like to relate more to but haven’t got the chance to do so or could not yet navigate around it. The one you would like to connect to more but have been experiencing some resistance. Alternatively this could be the food element you have witnessed yourself having an unhealthy relationship with. Over-consuming it due to an impulse coming from your emotional body, a need to numb emotions through this food element, or even using this food as a way to harm and punish your physical vessel.
PART 3 // THE RITUAL
The last part of the guidance is weaving together our new relationship to the food ingredients in research with the ritual of food preparation and its aesthetics. The food preparation as a sacred ritual and an energetic commitment. A prayer to ourselves and to our bodies. The aesthetics of food preparation and food setting. The importance of organic materials in the energetic flow of the essence of foods from the body of the Earth to our own bodies. The wabi-sabi, the perfection in the imperfection and the elements in full presence to remind us how this organic food material was created and how it holds the thread of where it all originates from.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
The fresh food ingredients we will be working with will have to be in season and local to where you are.
I am consciously choosing to not work with meat and meat products during the sessions. However, if you feel the calling to work with meat we could discuss it during the introductory call and navigate the needs.
We will be meeting online for the sessions except for some special meetings dependent on the guidance package you are choosing that may be done in person depending where you are.
The sessions can be given in English or/and Greek language.
‘Do you feel the calling to embark on your own personal healing journey with food?’

TESTIMONIALS
Diana C. // ROMANIA
If my encounter with Alexandra was a chance meeting, my decision to start working with her one the 1-2-1 Sensorial Food Sessions was me answering a calling of the heart.
With all my being I was craving the knowledge, the magic and kindness this wonderful human being has to offer.
I had now idea how lost I was in my relationship with food. How I was depriving my body and soul of true nourishment, ancestral energy. She made the soft strength that knowledge of food, energy, rituals and connection available for me, and her process works surprisingly well online. She opened my mind and soul so I can better hear my body and understand myself.
In this journey of blooming my life, of healing my body and soul, my work with Alexandra is a key ingredient.
