Pethrena says: "Understand food as vibrational medicine. Energy-test before you ingest … Food is holistic; it affects us on all levels of our being. Energy medicine and mindful living are foundations for optimal health and wellness." Dames will learn a direct understanding of the effects of food on the mind and the body, with their choices affecting their own energies, as well as energies of all who eat their food.
