Celebrity chef Carla Hall wasn’t always interested in cooking. As a child, she finds that puzzles and play help her to discover her true character. When she falls upon a hard time, she instinctively turns to memories of her grandmother’s kitchen for comfort. In this episode of Meditative Story, Carla shares how sensory play finally allows her to solve her biggest puzzle yet — herself. Carla’s story is a key part of our new experience A Sense of Serenity. This 5-part email series will help you cultivate presence, incorporate daily mindfulness practices, and reduce day-to-day stress. Sign up for free by visiting http://meditativestory.com/serenity.
