Achterflaptekst:

Vibrant health, dazzling beauty, a great body, fulfilling relationships, amazing sex, and inner peace—what woman doesn’t want these things? 

But chasing the latest diet craze and burying ourselves in beauty products isn’t really helping us achieve better bodies and minds. It's time to trade in the fads and expand your healthy lifestyle beyond yoga and pilates with one of the most enduring and popular diets in the world. 

For women who know that looking good means feeling good, macrobiotic chef and cooking instructor Jessica Porter offers fresh, contemporary, and accessible insight into a dietary practice that has been invigorating women’s health for generations. Cooking tips and recipes are combined with Jessica’s no-nonsense philosophy and witty anecdotes to create a book that will inspire you to hit the kitchen armed with the tools you need to strengthen your mind and body through food. 

“There is no right or wrong way to approach this book. One of the things I love about macrobiotics is that there is a food component and a philosophy component—theory and practice tucked side by side on your fork. You can start with your brain or with your belly. You may want to jump straight to a de-sludging diet tomorrow or just read some of the philosophy over brown rice and gee what happens next. I believe that if you are intrigued at all by either the cooking or the theory, then your intuition will guide you like a benevolent dominatrix.” —Jessica Porter, Hip Chick. 

“Porter’s wry wit and in-your-face narrative cuts to the very heart of [macrobiotic] philosophy. May this be a macrobiotic manifesto for a new generation of empowered hipsters.” — Lee Gross, macrobiotic chef to Gwyneth Paltrow. 

“Informative—and a great laugh!” — Mayumi Nishimura, macrobiotic chef to Madonna. 

“What a blast! I laughed a lot and learned a lot, too.” — Christina Pirello, author of Cooking the Whole Foods Way and Christina Cooks.
