Mindful Eating

Internationally renowned and award-winning Miraval Resort & Spa sits at the foot of the sprawling Santa Catalina Mountains in Tucson, Arizona. There, nestled within the warm desert landscape, Miraval is the premier destination for life betterment—a place where guests feel, are, and can be more. Since its beginning in 1996, Miraval has upheld a powerfully simple vision: life is more meaningful and enjoyable when one's physical, emotional, spiritual, social, and intellectual components are in balance. Miraval has since become the pioneer for mindfulness in every aspect of life. One of the pillars of Miraval's success is that healthy food can taste good. Long celebrated for delectable masterpieces in spa cuisine, Miraval's culinary team has created this compilation of balanced recipes, representing an invitation to continue eating the Miraval way—by expanding, mixing, and learning more about your needs while bringing diet into balance. Mindfulness is a term heard and seen often at Miraval, and it is the core concept that shapes our programs and environment. Being “in the moment” takes practice, yet it is exhilarating and produces new experiences at every turn . . . for when you are fully present, you also make better choices that will lead to a healthier, happier, and more balanced life. Our cookbook will give you the inspiration and tools to bring mindfulness to your table. From mouthwatering entrées to decadent desserts, you will confidently create nutrient-packed, utterly delicious meals.
