Baking, Cooking can be a way of self expression. Baking isn’t just about following a recipe. It’s also about experiencing the recipe with all five senses.Mindfulness—we’ve all heard the word. Mindfulness is, simply put, being focused and aware of what you are sensing, feeling, and doing. As an exercise, mindfulness has been found to reduce stress and improve happiness. And, in our opinion, baking is the perfect practice in mindfulness. It requires close attention when measuring, handling dough, taste testing, and following a recipe.
