Participants will create their own take home blend of tea and watch our Chef's cooking demo while sipping hot tea.
Explore the Doshas (body constitution) and how to support each Dosha.
Before serving our community meal we will share a short breathing exercise to ignite Agni (digestive fire).

Chef Om is a former monk and Co-Founder of Cooking with Om, a California-based Ayurvedic, plant-based meal delivery and catering company.
His work is rooted in spirituality, compassion, and holistic healing. Guided by the Eastern philosophy of Ahimsa—non-violence and reverence for all living beings—his journey has been shaped by lived monastic training and years of immersion in ancestral healing traditions.
Om approaches cooking as a sacred ritual—one that honors the intelligence of plants, the wisdom of ancestral traditions, and the cultivation of a conscious relationship with the earth.
Through nourishing meals, private coaching, retreats, Ayurvedic cooking trainings and community offerings- He empowers individuals to experience food as medicine—supporting vitality, emotional balance, and spiritual well-being—while fostering a deeper connection to land, lineage, and the healing potential of conscious nourishment.

I view cooking as a sacred ritual where ancient wisdom meets modern kitchens. Food is a remedy that nurtures the body and soul, inspiring joy and creativity in every meal.
