Join us for an en-lite-ening exploration of preparing easy to digest, properly combined, low calorie, simple to make and outrageously delicious raw and living foods! Using a wide variety of exotic superfoods and seasonal fruits and vegetables, we will delight in simple and creative meal preparation without the use of dense, high calorie, difficult to digest foods such as nuts and seeds and high-sugar-content foods. The recipes we will learn in this class are ideal for a long-term cleansing and cellular rejuvenation regimen effective in the healing and prevention of most chronic modern day conditions such as diabetes, arthritis, heart disease, cancer, most digestive disorders, skin diseases, chronic fatigue, candida and many more. We will explore ways to accelerate the elimination of toxins and the burning of fat while promoting cellular rejuvenation and weight loss in a relatively short period of time through fasting. We will discover and explore:
	Which foods are easiest to digest and provide the most nourishment.
	Which foods are low on the glycemic index (have a low sugar content)
	Creating meals with simple ingredients yet complex and satisfying flavors.
	Maximizing the energizing and healing properties of foods through proper food combining.
	Fasting and Cleansing: short or long-term when and how

The Menu:
	Very Berry Refresher Smoothie
	Green Energy Living Soup
	Spinach Basil Spread
	The Everyday Foundation for Health: Superfood Salad

Great food - I could never imagine that those chunky roots I saw in some grocery stores before are actually sweet. Great people - very open, very different. I made new friends instantly.  - Rafael Fuchs

What a great recipe: a wholesome organic meal and an easy-going host. I'll be back. Organic vegetables prepared with loving spirit always taste good. Thanks for making me feel so welcome and comfortable. I'm still feeling the good vibe from the evening.  - Larry Lux

I had a great time. Thanks for a truly wonderful evening. I've been living in New York for seven years now and it's usually very hard to entertain me with something I haven't experienced yet.  - Keren Shani

I had such a wonderful experience. The class was great fun, the food was terrific, and I left feeling whole and happy. Looking forward to taking more classes with you, and learning more every day.  - Susan Gass

The cooking class was a great chance to make a healthy meal with a bunch of new friends. It made me remember how much fun cooking can be with a group and also how easy it is to eat healthy with just a little extra effort.- Jackie Valentine

I loved the cooking class. While the purpose (to me) was to learn that eating in a healthy way is beneficial and delicious, the atmosphere was casual and filled with joy and love. I'll use what I learned and go back formore.  - Judith Burnett

Beloved Alok, namasti.
Much joy to share with you
a cooking experience, not just a class.
Food for the soul.
May you keep spreading
this light all over NYC.
Om.  - Harsita Love

This class is a delectable feast for the senses, and an incredibly fun way to meet eclectic, creative people. I felt right at home immediately. I really appreciate Alok's thoughtfulness in making our experience so complete. And the food is scrumptious!  - Judy Bonfil-Levine

Alok, thank you so much for that lovely evening. Way beyond the technique of cooking healthy, you let us practice 'enjoying' fully. Enjoying people and the positive energies they give off whether it is while massaging, singing, talking, eating, or even while cooking. That was a really neat group you brought together and it was not by accident. Thanks again. - Anthony Law

Attending one of Alok's cooking classes is like dying and going to heaven. I totally lose my sense of place, and just succumb to the warm, soothing and healing energies shared by those around me. The meals are mouth watering, and simple to repeat at home. Alok is a blessing. - Ahuva Ellner

I'm in Alok's six-month program. I find the cooking classes the
perfect complement to the program. I wouldn't miss a single class. I even attend the same class more than once. The cooking class is an opportunity for me to learn more about food, have yummy dinners, meet new friends (with some of them I now hang out outside of the classes), and promote my music. The ambient is always so cozy and the energy is very high. People who are not in the program can attend the classes as well. It's fun and it's a great way of meeting people from different countries, cultures, and experiences.
- Irene Mastrangeli

Thank you for a wonderful experience! I learned a lot and had a great time. The company was so friendly and welcoming, and the air was filled with lots of love and really great energy. I brought my leftovers home and my roommate said, "It looks like real sushi." I am looking forward to taking another class.  - Angela Paccione

I recently attended one of Alok's cooking classes, and had a wonderful time! I felt so relaxed with everyone. No pretensions, no competition, no stress. It was a time to truly live in the present moment, to be there and enjoy one another's company and make delicious food! I recommend Alok's classes for anyone looking for a cooking experience with a bit of the spiritual thrown in.  - Anne Osmer

I enjoyed how the class was more than just about cooking. There was lots of primary food to be enjoyed as well, so we got to experience the meaning of primary food. I left feeling satisfied and inspired.  - Patricia Black

The whole event was very harmonious. I particularly liked connecting with new people and making food together is such a wonderful vehicle to do that.  - Marie Lumholtz

I really enjoyed having a live food preparation class. It was very delicious and I felt very good the next day. It left me with the feeling of eating very clean and healthy food. Thank you very much.  - Nuria Divi

It was a stimulating, nourishing evening and I am looking forward to hearing next month's schedule and menu.  - Meche Kroop

I really enjoyed the cooking class and made the sweet sensation and brown rice/quinoa/ poppy seed mix last night, so I have enough to last me most of the week. Thanks for your enthusiasm and passion for whole foods. It's refreshing to meet someone who feels the same about "simple" foods.  - Julie Genser

I enjoyed sharing time with you and the group during the cooking class. It was very informative. I felt I was in a very friendly environment, where everybody was willing to let go of the New York City face and open to a relaxed communication. For me it was important to reconnect with my left side... to practice self love by being conscious and caring of what I put into my body. I liked being able to participate in the cooking itself. It was a great, fun tool to connect with all the other participants. The meal was just delicious, so natural and healthy.
