MORE ABOUT ESSENTIAL EATING CLASSES
The Essential Eating Lifestyle & Cooking Classes are based on the philosophy of Essential Eating – an eating lifestyle you can easily follow forever - happily.  Instructor and founder of Essential Eating, Janie Quinn is assisted by a group of dedicated and talented certified Essential Eating Cooking Guides who are trained in the essentials of the program and who themselves live an Essential Eating lifestyle.  These messengers of Essential Eating and guest chefs may accompany Janie in the classroom. 

Essential Eaters are learning first hand how to get a little cooking back into their busy lives for their health and well-being. Students participate in cooking organic whole foods using the continuous kitchen concept - cook once or twice a week so you have meals to put together in minutes - healthfully.  Enjoy knowing what to eat, how much to eat, and when to eat it, including dessert!  Classes empower you to create a stress-free environment in your body. 

In addition to using organic and local foods, our organic kitchen is equipped with filtered water, clean air, safe cookware, chemical-free dish detergents, recycled paper goods, and is cleaned with non-toxic cleaning products.  We kindly asked that students not use any colognes, perfumes, or scented products such as dryer sheets prior to class as the chemicals alter the experience and the taste of the food!

Graduates are experiencing satisfying and lasting results including long-term weight loss, more energy, lower cholesterol, better sleep, bowl regularity, improved focus and memory, lower blood pressure, strengthened immune systems, the elimination of indigestion, less aches and pains and the freedom that comes from knowing what to eat to feel better.
