The holidays are a time to indulge in the richness of life with those we hold dear. When we indulge from a place of feeling centered and whole within ourselves, a true indulgence leaves us feeling light and happy instead of heavy and bogged down.

This holiday season I want to share my delicious cookies that are so incredibly yummy, full of healthy fats and just the right amount of sugar and spice. When you treat yourself to a couple of my Spice Cookies not only will you feel satisfied but you’ll feel inspired to eat in a way that keeps your body feeling light, joyous and content – just what the holidays are about!
