    About this ebook

    Nutritionist and yoga practitioner Deanna Minich’s Chakra Foods provides information on how to heal emotional and physical woes through making the right food choices. The material for this book developed out of the author’s highly successful “Nutrition for the Soul” classes, workshops, and private counseling sessions. Not a diet book, it looks at both the nutritional and spiritual aspects of the foods we eat and how they can heal us. For example, someone feeling stuck in their lives could turn to chapter 5 and find a list of orange foods—apricots, carrots, salmon, pumpkin, oranges—to help their sacral chakra. For each chakra, specific affirmations and other practices are also offered, as are meal plans and recipes. Helpful lists, charts, and diagrams help readers easily pinpoint and diagnose themselves and the various prescriptive options are all very clearly explained. With lots of useful sidebars, this book really is a treasure trove of energy medicine in the form of food—truly food for the body, mind, and soul!

    Deanna M. Minich

    Dr. Deanna Minich (www.drdeannaminich.com) is a wellness expert and author of five books. Having had health issues in her teens and twenties, she looked for solutions to feel better and understand her relationship with food. She embarked upon a scientific path to study nutritional biochemistry, while at the same time, explored other disciplines like psychology, spirituality, and philosophy. Her journey to find answers ultimately led her to combine her studies to develop an integrated, complete, lifestyle system called Food & Spirit™. Currently, she offers training to practitioners of all types to learn this color-coded method for full-spectrum health (www.foodandspirit.com). She has applied this system to the practice of detox to create Whole Detox, a whole-life, whole-systems, whole-foods approach to feeling vital and renewed. In 2014, she led the Detox Summit, the world’s largest event on detox featuring 30 experts in the field. She offers online programs for those looking for guidance on healthy eating and living the Whole Detox way (www.whole-detox.com). Dr. Minich is a Fellow of the American College of Nutrition, a Certified Nutrition Specialist, a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner, and faculty for the Institute for Functional Medicine and University of Western States. Her passion is teaching a whole-self approach to living and bringing together the gaps between science, spirit, and art in healing. www.drdeannaminich.com

      Chakra Foods for Optimum HealthA Guide to the Foods that can Improve Your Energy,Inspire Creative Changes, Open Your Heart, And Heal Body, Mind, and Spiritby Deanna M. Minich, Ph.D., C.N. I learned a lot from reviewing this great 265 page helper. It made sense for me in a big way because I knew my body was made up from energy and that food is made up from energy so it stands to reason that the right energies combined would make a healthier more vibrant me, and the wrong ones could cause blockages and dis-ease. Along with the astounding and immense information about how everything blends together, even down to the chakras they connect through, even food colors make a difference. I was able to see some well presented graphs that summed it all up for me and helped me to see at a glance which disease and foods were connected to the different chakras and what food would help free up the flow. I would recommend this exceptionally beneficial teacher to absolutely everyone, because it does put a new spin on the saying, you are what you eat. Thanks Deanna, for giving us so much food for thought. Love & Light Riki Frahmann
