Anyone with multiple things on the go will know how helpful relaxation can be. The lockdowns made us face some “home truths” about ourselves. Now it’s time to mend some of our ways by starting to cook mindfully.
Our guest Saba a life long food lover, cook and yoga teacher talks to us about how everything is linked and more importantly how to start fixing it.
