Produktbeschreibung
While Grada's first memoir You are the Miracle! How Being Hit by a Truck Saved My Life describes how Grada grew a new body after incurring catastrophic injuries, and her second memoir, The Underbelly, is a vivid account of overcoming mental illness, religious trauma and PTSD, Alchemy of Love is Grada's ultimate comeback story. Alchemy of Love explores the magic of life where Love is the primary creative force. From the heart of a prolific healer, cook, author and entrepreneur, this is a book for all seasons with deeply personal stories of her large family and community of clients, dotted with real-life results and recipes. Grada believes food, family and Earth Medicine form the backbone of happy living, with meals the centre of daily life. Mother Nature is the pantry and pharmacy, offering us the perfect ingredients to create a space of happiness and love for ourselves, our children and our earth. Alchemy of Love points the way towards reclaiming our own innate wisdom in partnership with Mother Nature. There is nothing Grada loves more than making a real difference in people's lives by inspiring them to believe in themselves, to take the plunge, to go for it and see what happens. After all, what is the worst thing that can happen? From Grada's experience, 'Even when you sink so low you can't climb your way up, you may find that the Universe is waiting for you there, to sip and dine with you.'
Autorenporträt
A gifted healer and modern-day muse, Grada Robertson and her husband and fellow practitioner, Peter, live on nine idyllic acres of landscaped gardens, mazes and forest, which they share with a beloved menagerie of animals in Forth, Tasmania. Grada's lifelong interest in health, food and earth medicine has shaped her career and lifestyle. In 2000, Grada and Peter opened the Purple House Wellness Centre, where they specialize in digestive, (wo) men's and children's health, as well as energy medicine. As Grada experienced after she was literally hit by a truck in 2006, it is almost impossible to make a full recovery when your gut health is destroyed by injuries, antibiotics or other lifestyle-induced illnesses. She became inundated by patients who had either become disconnected from food and its role in creating vitality, or who had struggled to overcome food allergies and other chronic conditions. Grada sought to share her views and passion for diverse, wholesome foods with a larger audience through her blog (purplehousenaturaltherapies.com.au/ gradas-blog/) and by opening Alchemy Café, a gluten-free café with an emphasis on ancient food preparations, such as fermented foods, slow cooked meals, and freshly baked food made from local organic produce. Using her home kitchen as a laboratory, Grada experimented with an exotic and often eccentric range of fermented cultures and colonies, as well as bone broth soups, smoothies and utilising healthy oils. She discovered it was easy to create foods that support immunity and restore digestion and wellbeing by returning essential bacteria and enzymes to her family's and client's diets. Alchemy of Love represents Grada's research into a happy life-including a strong immune system, fit and flexible body and a balanced mind.
