“LET FOOD BE THY MEDICINE - Hyppocrates”
The Food Shop was born out of love for my family and the preciousness of their lives and me wanting to make a difference in the lives of others. As a parent of 3 beautiful children and a pet parent of 2 amazing furbabies. I was guided in learnin
g how to understand and become aware of the importance of wholesome nutrition since my oldest daughter was diagnose with Crohn's disease at age 10. Being a family with health issues (be it emotional, physical and even mental) I realized the link and impact the kind of foods we ate had on us and our furbabies. I took matter in my own hands after my son Olivier came into my life with food intolerances and behavioural issues. Already knowing where the path of traditional medicine led us when dealing with both my daughters issues, the need has arisen to search for an alternative, holistic approach to help him grow healthy and flourish in a world where sadly wholesome living is irrelevant and inconsequential. Aware, very aware that food habits don't change overnight (especially if like me, you are an emotional eater) I am still learning to walk the path of wholesome nutrition and applying them on a daily basis. I've pondered a long time to wait until I had mastered my own health and healing before helping others until Life made me realize I would attain my own degree of healthfulness by helping others. As a mom, a pet parent, a caretaker, a business owner and spiritually inclined person, I know by experience we can profoundly touch the people we cook for and help them have a better day, help them strive for longevity, offer comfort and so much more. All that being said - Le Food Shop cannot be what it is without my beautiful daughter Mélissa - I invited her to join me in this new venture for she's a savvy young woman. Her wisdom and know-how as a Chef and her deep love of animals makes her well worth discovering! When cooking together we have this synergy between us therefore the food is simply amazing and therapeutic at the same time – how cool is that! When the food is grown, raised, prepared in the highest of ethics, using quality ingredients and mindfulness, we develop a bond of gratitude and respect and a sense of “someone cares for me, I am important, I am worthy”. We are nourished at all levels of being. And this is the message The Food Shop conveys in every meal, workshop and coaching experiences. So keep following us to find out all the help and empowerment in nutrition we can offer you and your furbabies so you may take your pet's health and yours up a notch. Leaving you with this:
