Miraval Resort & Spa Releases First Ever Cookbook, Mindful Eating
Written under the direction of Miraval's Executive Chef Chad Luethje and the resort's culinary, beverage, and nutrition teams, the book contains two hundred beautifully clean recipes and simple techniques for readers to use at home, giving them the tools to make smarter choices with a better understanding of portion size, ingredients, and cooking practices. Each dish represents an invitation to eat and drink the Miraval way, examining the art of reacquainting oneself with hunger and letting it cue mindful eating, rather than feeding one's emotions.

With recipes for peanut butter (made with carrots) and Caesar salad dressing (made with silken tofu), the spirit of Mindful Eating is not deprivation, but rather the use of unexpected techniques and flavor and texture blends combining to a gratifying effect. An entire chapter of the book contains mindful cocktail recipes, exemplifying the resort's guiding philosophy that all choices, when made mindfully, are healthy and acceptable.

“With the Mindful Eating cookbook, guests can now incorporate our delicious and healthful cuisine and cocktails into their everyday lives with ease and purpose,” said Michael G. Tompkins, President and General Manager of Miraval Resort & Spa.

Since its debut in 1995, Miraval has upheld a powerfully simple vision: life is more meaningful and enjoyable when physical, emotional, spiritual, social, and intellectual components are in harmony. The way we nourish ourselves is no exception. From mouthwatering entrées to creative cocktails, Miraval's Mindful Eating offers the inspiration and tools necessary to improve one's relationship with food, essential for life balance.
