Choose Only the Life Ingredients You Like!
Why write down recipe proportions that you find are ideal? For me, I want to recreate the same great balance of flavors over and over. That is why when your life is working the way you want it to and you feel great body, mind and spirit – you should record in a journal what you are doing.
If you hit a fork in the road and you feel sad or even depressed you can refer back to the original recipe that seemed to be working for you. A recipe is written by listing only what you want in the recipe in the order it should be added and likely the most important ingredient is listed first. So why not treat life the same way? List only what you want and prioritize.
This month you will get a taste of Zarela Martinez’s Recipe for Life. A New York restaurateur with a zest for life – her life is spicy yet balanced so check out her recipe.
I am Debbie Gore (motivational speaker and cookbook author) and I created a program to help individuals and organizations find the right ingredients for their ideal life recipe. Health and well-being rank high on the list so read on for more tips! http://recipeforlife.biz
Recipe for a Haute and Spicy Life
Zarela Martinez is one of this generation’s leading
U.S. restaurateurs. Zarela was born and raised in Mexico but began cooking professionally during the late 1970’s in El Paso, Texas. With the encouragement of Paul Prudhomme and Craig Claiborne, who had been impressed by her Mexican food, she made some nationally noted guest-chef appearances and in 1983 moved her business to New York. Zarela’s robust appetite for life has led to chances being taken and doors opening!
Zarela is an author, culinary instructor, television personality and was recently named to the board of the Mexican Cultural Institute. Zarela’s deep-rooted principles make her Recipe for Life interesting and empowering, especially for women.
As we know, health is really the center of life. Zarela walks up and down the stairs of her four–story home many times a day and travels by foot in Manhattan as part of her health routine. Zarela also embraces a unique exercise program of pilates, martial arts and Xi Gong yoga that strengthens mind and body. She contributes her good health to eating nutritious meals (no white flour, processed sugars) and has a lot of fun. A passionate person as you can read on her site ( http://www.zarela.com/). Zarela is involved in a multitude of projects that keep her connected to people who share her passions.
She is centered and focused because she has a black and white perspective on whether she has control over situations. She asks herself a simple question. “Can I do anything about it?” If not, she lets it go. She openly expresses her opinions and handles anger as it arises instead of harboring feelings.
Her binder of family and her network that supports her are somewhat commingled. She has many friends but closest are her “three daughters:” a step-daughter, daughter-in-law and one of her son’s former girlfriends, her group of girlfriends in their 20’s and 30’s whom she mentors and call her “mama”, her restaurant staff and best friends, Elisa and Pedro.
Zarela loves to sing, dance and entertain. Even with a restaurant and the hours, she loves to have people in her home. She cooks no matter what the mood. Zarela’s business is so multi-faceted it provides spice, abundance and fulfillment. The meat of Zarela’s life is passion and the universe definitely supports it.
