Overview

We all have things we see as barriers to overcome, but after time reflection and by working through the situation we can usually find the gift in it all. I am here to help you unwrap your lessons, reveal some of your gifts and learn to love the journey of becoming the Optimal Being that you are here to be. All the aspects that contribute to your health can't be separated. You have to think of working towards optimal being as improving your lightness of being, or brightness, and ask yourself, ""What feels amazing to me in my body? What are the risks and vulnerabilities I have to face?"" Make the commitment to really take the time and steps toward loving yourself. Embrace developing your optimal being, your physical health through food and movement, your mental health though awareness and creativity by being with meditation and colour all to stimulate the body mind and soul. Everyone has to eat. You must eat to survive but, more importantly, you should eat to thrive and become your optimal self. You deserve it. No, I mean it, you really deserve it; in fact, you owe it to yourself. All food contains energy, and you convert that energy in your body and use it to complete your daily tasks. Optimal Being is about the right balance of real food for every organ in our body. There is no one perfect fitness program for everyone because we are all unique in our skill, physical abilities and genetics. This is all about lifestyle changes, raising your awareness, eating the right balance of real food, and keeping in motion. The key to wellness is movement. Movement stimulates many of our bodily systems to function properly. Your heart needs movement to encourage positive circulation. Your lymphatics need movement because it is what helps your lymphatic fluid move, as it has no independent pump. Your lungs depend on movement for the expansion and contraction exercise to keep oxygen freely flowing though your entire body. Your muscles need exercise to stimulate their growth and sustainability to keep you functioning.Movement is important, actually critical, to your survival. Essence Art is an artistic means of expression. It allows people to visit a part of themselves they either have never seem before or will see in a new way. An artistic medium can remove an artist from the rational common world and place them in a space that allows them to experience a new concept. These concepts can pull us deeper and deeper into a place that allows us to connect with our truest reality of that moment in time. Exploring all aspects of your personal wellness will allow you to Energize your Body, Engage Your Brain and Explore your creativity as become your Optimal Being.

Finding people in the world who share your visions, beliefs and values is not always easy, especially when moving to a new city, province or town. When I moved back to the Maritimes from 23 years in Ontario it was difficult for me to find my new tribe. When I met Kathy, I instantly knew she was part of my new tribe, that instant feeling of ease you get when you meet such a person flooded over me. Wise beyond her years Kathy has an incredible gift for making others feel included and at ease, a calm steady presence and vibe! I value Kathy as a holistic professional peer and as a true friend, always there to listen and offer calm reassurance. I view my friendship and professional relationship with Kathy as a gift. Sonita Pouliot, RHN, CPT, Chef. In my conversations with Kathy, it is clear that she understands the connection between the mind/body and the real root causes of dis-ease. I expect her book to hold a wealth of information from her training and experiences and will be of value to anyone, from novices to experts. Dr. Adrienne Wood, Naturopathic Doctor

The daughter of a wicked, awesome, beautiful mother who wrote this book! I have spent the last few years of my life traveling Canada, going to culinary school, working in different kitchens and having wonderful experiences. I have learned a lot, hurtled over a few obstacles, told a few jokes, cried a few tears along the way. But the one thing that has never failed is my love and passion for food. I'm always hungry (pun intended) to learn more and grow in my field. When my mama asked me about writing some recipes for this book, I was thrilled by the idea. It wasn't only a great opportunity to challenge myself, but to work closely with my mama and have our passions collide. Thanks for picking up this book and hearing my mama's wisdom and knowledge, which I have had the privilege of hearing for 24 years of my life. Be bold, be brave, and enjoy the book!
