Passion is a fire that is ignited from within and when we are attempting to tap into this volcanic wealth of energy, there is no better method than to visit your household kitchen. Be it romantic passion or simply a day-to-day passion for all that is good in this worldSea Vegetables, especially for the tummy, then join us on this venture into the world of passionate cooking.
First and foremost, if you are in a relationship, the kitchen is one of the greatest arenas to experience foreplay in the household. For anyone who has shared in the joy of cooking up a new, spicy or succulent recipe with your partner, well, you already know what an elixir of romance this practice can produce. If you are not in a partnership, invite a friend for dinner and share in the deep connection that can be experienced through food. Or, if you desire a special date with your self, well, don’t hold back and look through your favorite magazines for the most delicious recipe you can find…then make it an evening to remember by playing your favorite music by preparing a playlist beforehand.
In preparation for this very special recipe, remember to set the stage with great food for your experience. Begin your date with a trip to the local market. One of my favorite places to shop is at the farmers market in my local neighborhood. Not only do I come across really amazing deals and fresh produce, I often uncover new foods to explore with. Most of the local vendors, as well as shoppers, are only too happy to share their favorite recipes with you. Picking up fruits and vegetables and lightly squeezing, to check for ripeness, can be very sensual. Next, pick up a table setting or decoration, be it a knick-knack, candles, incense, lighted ice cubes, whatever, to spice up your table for this evenings activities. As well, pick some music that really inspires the mood of the meal and play it while you are preparing. Setting the mood of the preparation is so important in that the energy that you put into your food is the energy that you will draw from it when eating. Hey, it may sound silly but this romantic notion has been used as atheme is several wonderful films such as “Like Water for Chocolate,” or “Chocolate.” These films just whisked me away into a fantasy
that mouthwatering food, cooked with passion, could affect everyone who partook in that food.
Now that the mood is sethting candles and using the fine tableware. Cooking can be magic, it’s time for the show! Create an intentional space with you and your partner, or your self if you are cooking for you, by clearing your mind of all other thoughts and distractions that exist outside of your kitchen. Then, be conscious of everything that you say to your partner or your self. Be generous with compliments, laughs, kisses and touches. This is the foreplay arena for the evening ahead. By creating a work of succulent art together, or alone, a total transition of time and space can occur. The kitchen becomes an artists studio and the food becomes the edible art … and the artists begin to vibrate with the sensation and excitement of the impending masterpiece. This can become such an expression of love and reverence that creating the food becomes symbolic of making passionate love and the eating of the food becomes symbolic of the ecstasy of orgasm.
With the above image to set the stage for your romantic meal, go out and find a recipe that drips with passion and go for it! You’ll be so grateful that you did:) Bon Apetit’!!!
Not many people realize that food is a really important factor in the quality of their sex lives. So often, we forget that we need to feed our brains, major organs and stimulate circulation in order to maintain a healthy sex drive.

Chocolate has also been proven to contain antioxidants. The darker and purer the product, the more potent its effect.

As well, flowers often contain aromas that are stimulat can be an aphrodisiac if taken in proper quantities as it reduces levels of anxiety, which can impede performance. As well, it releases inhibitions, as long as it is not taken in large quantities, which can produce loss of control.
