Cooking in the
spirit of
Kotahitanga
The Wholefood Kitchen is the creation of New Zealand born Kevin Helas, who trained extensively in London under the guidance of some of the worlds leading wholefood and macrobiotic chefs.
The Wholefood Kitchen connects with the simple, ancient tradition of coming together in the kitchen to prepare and share food; a practice that offers a path to greater agency over our own health and wellbeing, and ability to care for and nourish ourselves and our whanau.
But it’s much more than this too.
The Wholefood Kitchen offers an invitation to connect with what is available when we enter the kitchen space, when we tune into the act of cooking as a way to connect with ourselves.
It’s a space of personal growth and discovery. It’s a place to develop our sensitivity, our sensuality, our intuition, our sense of magic and wonder. It’s a place to develop a deeper and fuller sense of who we really are.
Where earth, heart
and fire come
together
