Nicci Robertson redefines mindful eating in new book

This highly anticipated release promises to revolutionise how we think about food, health, and happiness by offering a refreshing alternative to fad diets and rigid food rules.

In a world overwhelmed by conflicting dietary advice, Mind, Body & Soul Food invites readers to rediscover the joy of real, unprocessed food and inspire an understanding of how our foods are made which affects every aspect of our wellbeing.

With over 80 mouthwatering recipes, this book is not just a cookbook, it offers the reader a comprehensive guide to making better nutritional choices. Nicci draws from her expertise in clinical nutrition and functional medicine to explain how food nourishes not only the body but also the mind and soul.

“For as long as I can remember, I’ve been on a mission to figure out why diets don’t work. This book is the culmination of that journey, a practical guide to embracing the pleasure of making, sharing, and savouring real food while improving your health for the long term.”
