Cooking with Love
I know what gets me feeling good when I'm cooking for my family or anyone else. It's listen to some good ole Soulful music like Frankie Beverly or Smokie Robinson❤️ I love to cook in a kitchen full of love and soul its like love is floating all around me. Feeling my kitchen with joy and singing along as I dice up vegetables or peel potatoes.
cooking with music is like seasoning with starlight. It changes everything. 🎶🍳
For the cook, music slides straight into the nervous system. Rhythm slows the breath. Melody loosens the shoulders. The brain starts releasing dopamine and serotonin, the feel good chemicals that turn stress into flow. You stop rushing. You start moving with grace. Your hands begin to dance instead of panic. That is when mistakes drop away and intuition steps in. You taste better. You time better. You feel the food instead of forcing it.
For the food, something subtle but powerful happens. When you cook relaxed, your body chemistry changes. Less cortisol, more calm. That calm transfers through touch, through stirring, through heat control. You salt more gently. You flip more patiently. You listen to the sizzle. The dish becomes more balanced because the person making it is balanced. Food cooked in tension tastes sharp. Food cooked in joy tastes round and full and comforting.
Music also sets intention. A soft jazz ballad creates tenderness. Gospel brings warmth and gratitude brightness and life. Slow soul gives depth. Your food absorbs the mood of the room just like dough absorbs yeast.
That’s why meals cooked with music feel different. They don’t just fill a stomach. They hug the spirit. 💞🥘
Honestly? Every Healing Skillet recipe should come with a playlist. That’s not extra. That’s medicine.
What kind of music would you have on your Playlist for cooking with intention?
