RESET YOUR COOKING PRACTICE IN THE NEW YEAR

There’s no better time to reset your cooking practice and start nourishing yourself for a long, healthy life than at the start of a new year.

Join Kripalu faculty, Jeremy Rock Smith, and Greek chef, Katerina Sakelliou, for a weekend focused on plant-based Mediterranean and Blue Zone diets. Jeremy and Katerina, who is from the beautiful island of Poros, Greece, will share time-honored techniques and tips from the Mediterranean and Blue Zone regions. 

Create flavorful, wholesome dishes that have been proven to increase longevity as you:

• Discover the secrets of classic plant-based dishes rooted in Mediterranean and Blue Zone traditions that use ingredients like legumes, whole grains, fresh vegetables, and olive oil.
• Practice simple yet powerful techniques like slow cooking beans, roasting vegetables, and crafting fresh, nutrient-rich salads, all while incorporating the principles of mindful, communal eating.
• Explore the time-honored practices of slowing down and eating together, as seen in Blue Zone places like Ikaria, Greece, where meals are savored and shared in community.

Whether you’re resetting your kitchen habits or just beginning your culinary journey, you’ll learn to prepare delicious, nutrient-dense meals while embracing the joy of slowing down and cooking in community. It’s never too late to embrace a longevity-focused diet.
