Shonali Banerjee and Chef Naina Bhedwar are excited to offer you a unique opportunity to nourish yourself, Belly & Soul!
For this Belly & Soul workshop, in the heart of winter, Chef Naina offers you a warming, vegetable-forward spread of flavors that draws on the two absolutely elemental parts of her background, the Indian and the Persian. She will share a wealth of wisdom while guiding you to prepare one of the dishes for your meal. As flavors are melding, Shonali takes you under her wing & into supportive, body & soul, breath & movement practices. Her sacred song offerings throughout the practice open portals for healing & transformation. You'll find yourself wonderfully present; ready to break bread & dive into the deeply nourishing wisdom of this winter season.
