Are you familiar with snacking, wasting, eating too much fat or too much sugar? The little guide At the Zen Table proposes to reconcile us with the food and meals that we tend to neglect more and more. A young Zen monk trained at the Eihei temple, Seigaku, now lives in Berlin. In this book, he proposes a simple and illustrated method to apply the precepts of Zen food - as practiced in his Buddhist temple - to our current lifestyles. Curious people of Japanese culture will be delighted to learn the many rituals and precepts of Zen monks around food: the charm of silence, the choreography of bowls and fingers, the ritual of washing dishes with tea and some unusual recipes. With À la table zen, your meals will undoubtedly turn into a unique sensory and meditative experience and your mind will thank you for it!
