at Miraval Berkshires
With the winter solstice approaching, it’s a wonderful time to experience Miraval’s culinary workshops, crafted by Miraval Chefs and designed to be healthful without sacrificing flavor and texture.
Because living well isn’t just about eating the right food, it is also about community and conviviality — sharing it with people you care about.
This is the season of Thanksgiving and of giving thanks for the bountiful gifts and vast array of life’s blessings we receive throughout the year. This important practice of giving thanks is a practice that could reap much greater benefit by being extended out over the year. This gift of gratitude is a free gift that we can share with ourselves and others.
