Baba’s Bites is a recipe book created by two siblings, Matthew and Rebecca, in their discovery of wellness through food and Ayurveda.
Together, they have both come to know the importance of right eating as the primal foundation for human and planetary health. It is becoming clear that ‘Climate Change’ is no longer just the wildfire on our televisions - it is affecting us all on a very personal level.
Modern agriculture practices and the reliance of unnatural food and chemicals within our present-day nourishment has caused a depletion of basic and essential nutrients in the topsoil of our earth. It is no coincidence that our bodies may not feel as optimal as we wish, with many people searching for a more natural and organic method to improve their physical and mental health.
The needs for a varied and balanced diet, increased education and planetary protection come hand in hand. Together they can rekindle the belief that our earth already holds everything we need to be healed.
This book aims to tackle our own little portion of the bigger picture, with a hope of giving people a stronger understanding of how food can be used to bring their bodies into better harmony through simply eating well.
