When I am hurt, I try to concentrate in the present moment. I don’t want to see my problems; I want to see the situations that I have to solve. I have to start by telling myself it’s time to get real and honest with myself and realising that there is a process to making this perfect dish or fixing recipes gone wrong.
Personally I have had many emotional wounds, some that cannot be forgotten. If only life were like a computer keyboard. You can type what you want, when something goes wrong, we just have to press backspace or erase button or in extreme circumstances perform a format hard disk command.
I have not found full erase facility yet in my search.
We, as people, have different abilities and talents. I guess that being able to heal one’s wounds would be one of those abilities.
I am still learning. So, I can only think that the Universe is teaching me how to live without fear, to live in the moment and to see the horizon instead of looking always into the darkness. But even if you look into the darkness what is there really to fear there except fear itself?
A good friend once said – imagine a big empty box, put all your pain, fear and problems in it, close the box, lock the box and put the box away. When the time is right, open the box again and deal with whatever is inside.
Live the present. Live life.

***note when preparing food or fixing a dish***
*Remember to always clean hands and any kitchen knife that is used to avoid contamination*
One way of getting a clean mind is through prayer see Romans 12. So, when preparing or fixing a dish, always pray before preparation. Just as a clean mind brings good energy when trying to heal wounds (and thus brings a healthy and faster healing process), good energy when cooking brings positive results.
*Remember: if onions are apart of your recipe, there will probably be some tears, as well as some mold (old beliefs) that has to be removed in order for the onions to be edible.*
*Always use care when using kitchen knives to avoid cutting yourself.*
Being kind to oneself is always a plus when healing. It is not good to have
regrets or beat yourself up when you are trying to heal. This only causes more
damage to the wound and can possibly cause new wounds. a Splash of Forgiveness is a must in all dishes!
* When adding spices, always remember moderation and balance. No one likes a plate that’s too salty or bland. When healing, remember to always find a balance. Too much of anything (medication, co-dependency of something/someone) can be harming. Keep in mind balance/moderation.
*Have fun when preparing or fixing a dish. Put on music, dance around the kitchen, sing! Don’t be too serious! Relax and enjoy the art of cooking! With all battles in life you will get wounds, but during your healing process, try to keep your sense of humor. Laugh at the battle that caused the wound and enjoy the healing process. Take notice of the beauty of how the body and soul heals itself.
* All chefs, even the ones that are considered master chefs, make mistakes when preparing a dish. The good thing is that mistakes can be fixed with the proper knowledge and culinary skills (The Art of Cooking). With life, there is always war and with war you will get wounded. But with all battles, you learn different strategies with each win and loss. When wounds have healed and its time to get back out there and fight the good fight, you have learned new ways of not getting wounded like before or new ways to recover from battle. (The Art of HEALING)
