Summary
Look at your relationship with your kitchen， and you discover the unconscious recipe guiding your life。
All the ways you live and love begin in your kitchen。 And it’s in the kitchen where you’ll find the way to your true self。 A place to nourish your being and heal with the freedom， beauty， and permission you have always longed for。
With The Kitchen Healer， Jules Blaine Davis invites you into the messy beauty of her healing kitchen and asks， “What are you really hungry for？”
Jules teaches that how we were or weren’t nourished in our childhood kitchens shapes every aspect of our lives today， and so it is through the kitchen that we find healing from the stress， overwhelm， and trauma that so many of us carry。
Though this book contains recipes—with ingredients both traditional and emotional—this isn’t your typical cookbook。 This is a book that will shine a light on how to cook up the life you deeply long to live with food you love to make。
As you rest and receive in the cozy glow of Jules and her kitchen， you’ll begin to understand that the freedom to turn on the fire—in the kitchen and in your life—is one and the same。

The Kitchen Healer by Jules Blaine Davis was not what I was expecting。 The description does say that “Though this book contains recipes—with ingredients both traditional and emotional—this isn’t your typical cookbook。” I was hoping that it would include more “witchy” items including cooking with herbs and more food recipes than it did include。I would have to say this is a self-help book that repeats a lot of the information again and again， but by using different words。 Not that it’s bad because The Kitchen Healer by Jules Blaine Davis was not what I was expecting。 The description does say that “Though this book contains recipes—with ingredients both traditional and emotional—this isn’t your typical cookbook。” I was hoping that it would include more “witchy” items including cooking with herbs and more food recipes than it did include。I would have to say this is a self-help book that repeats a lot of the information again and again， but by using different words。 Not that it’s bad because it’s kind of a mantra that one can repeat again and again。 And if you do a tea ritual in the morning， you could read part of a chapter and receive positive words for the day。I was also looking forward to more of the stories of the woman that Davis started to go to the farmer’s market with and to cook with， but that part was just presented and passed over for Davis to include poetry and mantras instead。 Perhaps I would have enjoyed it more if things that she suggested people do were not already things that I already do。 Taking time to enjoy your food， keep it out on the counter so you can see it and cook with it， doing a tea ritual， etc…。 So for people who don’t already do these things， this book could really be amazing to them。 。。。more

I've had a tough time with illness recently and this book was exactly what I needed。 It is like a bit comforting blanket hugging me。 It is the reassurance you need in hard times that everything will be ok and there is no need to worry。 I will be buying this as a gift for a few of my friends。 I've had a tough time with illness recently and this book was exactly what I needed。 It is like a bit comforting blanket hugging me。 It is the reassurance you need in hard times that everything will be ok and there is no need to worry。 I will be buying this as a gift for a few of my friends。 。。。more

I received a complimentary copy from the publisher and all opinions expressed are entirely my own。This is not what I expected when I started reading this book。 I expected spinach smoothie recipes and a glossary of healing recipes。 This is more than a cook book but a self-help book of sorts around holistic living。 Jules encourages us to dwell on topics around trauma， stress， self acceptance and how they influence how we cook and move around the kitchen。 The book encourages one to find thyself in I received a complimentary copy from the publisher and all opinions expressed are entirely my own。This is not what I expected when I started reading this book。 I expected spinach smoothie recipes and a glossary of healing recipes。 This is more than a cook book but a self-help book of sorts around holistic living。 Jules encourages us to dwell on topics around trauma， stress， self acceptance and how they influence how we cook and move around the kitchen。 The book encourages one to find thyself in the hustle and bustle of the kitchen 。。。more

Not what I was expecting - this book has recipes， yes， but it also has breathwork， movement work， and encourages you to dig deeper and look more intimately into your soul。 If you are put off by new-agey language， this may not be the book for you。 I enjoyed the dairy free and gluten free options in the recipes， as well as the suggestions on being present in the kitchen。 Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the advanced copy， all opinions are my own！

I started reading this book expecting to find recipes and information on the natural healing that can be found in eating good food。 However， it is actually a cookbook， self-help book， memoir， kitchen decor， and motivational book。 The Kitchen Healer is about simple natural living。 However， I found it odd that some of the recipes were not what I would describe as very healthy。 I would have expected the author to be vegan or at least vegetarian but the first recipe is chicken vegetable soup and the I started reading this book expecting to find recipes and information on the natural healing that can be found in eating good food。 However， it is actually a cookbook， self-help book， memoir， kitchen decor， and motivational book。 The Kitchen Healer is about simple natural living。 However， I found it odd that some of the recipes were not what I would describe as very healthy。 I would have expected the author to be vegan or at least vegetarian but the first recipe is chicken vegetable soup and there is plenty of butter and fat to find on later pages。The author often dwells on topics like exploring your childhood memories connected to food… trauma， stress。。 analysis of your feelings… to help you be free to love and accept yourself…She attempts to take you on a journey to becoming you。For anyone who already enjoys being in the kitchen and loves cooking there is not anything very helpful in The Kitchen Healer。 But for someone who has not yet found the healing art of cooking， the book might give a nudge to discover something wonderful waiting in the kitchen。This book is not my cup of tea but it might be yours。 I would suggest reading other reviews to get a better idea before deciding if you want to read The Kitchen Healer by Jules Blaine Davis。I want to thank NetGalley for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for a review。 All opinions are my own。Read the complete review on the blog here - https://everydaywiththeking。com/the-k。。。 。。。more

This was a beautifully illustrated "sharing" of one woman's journey to self-acceptance and self-love。The recipes were very basic， for the most part: simple ingredients and fresh， whole foods。I found it a bit repetitive， but I suppose that is how we retain things， through repetition。 Many will derive comfort from the poetry and the sharing of past experiences on this woman's journey to self-love in the kitchen。 Not every woman （or man） is as at home in the kitchen as the author is， so of course t This was a beautifully illustrated "sharing" of one woman's journey to self-acceptance and self-love。The recipes were very basic， for the most part: simple ingredients and fresh， whole foods。I found it a bit repetitive， but I suppose that is how we retain things， through repetition。 Many will derive comfort from the poetry and the sharing of past experiences on this woman's journey to self-love in the kitchen。 Not every woman （or man） is as at home in the kitchen as the author is， so of course this book will not be for everyone。 I am a Foodie， and I don't MIND my kitchen， but I don't derive as much self-worth or even satisfaction from my small kitchen workspace， and I often resent the amount of time I have to spend in it: I would rather be reading or listening to an audiobook！ 。 。 。 。 。 。 。For those of you who do， however， find solace in creating simple home-cooked meals， and who need some reminders to reconnect to yourself， then this book will hit its mark with you！ My thanks to the author， publisher and NetGalley for an ARC of this self-discovery/poetry/recipe sharing book。 。。。more

The Kitchen Healer by Jules Blaine Davis is an outstanding book of love， healing， health， family and food。 There are a good many ways I could describe this but the world， 'otherworldly'， comes to mind。 This book is multi-faceted and I'd argue was probably the first book I've ever truly savored， having spent a good while pouring over each and every page。 This book， upon first glance to some， might seem a lot like a cookbook and maybe， to a degree， you would be right。 There are recipes woven in a The Kitchen Healer by Jules Blaine Davis is an outstanding book of love， healing， health， family and food。 There are a good many ways I could describe this but the world， 'otherworldly'， comes to mind。 This book is multi-faceted and I'd argue was probably the first book I've ever truly savored， having spent a good while pouring over each and every page。 This book， upon first glance to some， might seem a lot like a cookbook and maybe， to a degree， you would be right。 There are recipes woven in a good number of the pages but there are also poems， stories， art and so much more。 Really and truly there aren't words that exist in the here and now that could be used to describe the raw authenticity this book provides。 The only way I could possibly get close is by saying that this is truly a healing， nourishing book both for you body and your mind （as for me， I'd say this nourished much more than these two but I'll let you be the judge）。I couldn't find a negative piece in this book at all。 As I said above， this book is raw authenticity and I mean that。 The photos are realistic - exactly what you might see in any other Mom's kitchen。 The goals are all so minimal in writing but so vast in practice and truly you'll find solace in every page。 This is truly a book you want to savor and get to know more intimately。 I implore you to hold it in hand over a cup of warm tea or outside with your muddied children。 I've never been one to risk the like-new quality of my books but this book was absolutely made to be used by the dirtied hands of an early baker or by the dreary eyed， spill-having mother - you are welcome in this space; we all are。I give this book 5 out of 5 stars。 It was written by a mother to mother's and women everywhere - to all persons' everywhere。 I don't think there isn't a single person alive that wouldn't greatly benefit from at least one page from this book and I know， if you took that chance， you'd see the same as I do in that。*received this book to give my opinion freely through NetGalley* 。。。more
