NetGalley Review

Authentic Knowledgeable Author, I truly enjoyed reading through getting to know the author, and her recipes. Her style of unique magic she teaches to cultivate in your own kitchen.

If you align with this belief system I highly recommend this book to any Kitchen Witch, Naturalist out there.

Mostly a book for myself rather then my library. Maybe one day people here will be accepting of witches. I still enjoyed the book and the recipes/spells were easy to follow. Will be a book I keep coming back to.

Great resource! Always looking for ways to be healthy in a more natural way. Kitchen witchery is the best, most nurturing way to accomplish that! Will refer back to this again and again I am certain!

A fantastic 101 book for the aspiring witch or those interested in natural healing and alternative methods. It covers the basics of magical practice and kitchen witchery - definitely not meant for practiced hands. Its definitely a reference resource and not a book that is meant to sit and read from cover to cover.

The best part of the book is the self care recipes and was happy to recommend it to friends who are vegan because of the options.

This book was very creative and intriguing and leaves you with a lot to think about! The recipes were a fun touch as well. I enjoyed reading this book and would definitely read more from this author.

This was a very interesting read that is outside of my comfort zone.

It didn't feel very kitchen oriented but perhaps that is based on a lack of understanding on my part.

Thank you Netgalley and publishers for this book.

This dives deep into the healing properties of herbs and cooking with intention, something we should all pay closer attention to. It was just a dense book, packed full of history, and recipes and information and it will take MANY passes through to fully absorb all of it, or even most of it.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for my digital copy in exchange for an honest review. I had to request this title as I am currently in a phase where I am trying to heal my body from everything I have done to it and practice a little more self care... I don't think it was quite what I was expecting but it did have a lot of info and many recipes for self care...It might be one I have to actually hold in my hands and see the pictures or be able to earmark pages...it didn't quite work out for me as a digital copy.

I enjoyed the mindful exploration into the properties of herbs, tea leaves, vegetables, and grains, Each ingredient serves a purpose. Mindfulness is woven throughout making you feel that Haseman really cares about you.

Finally a witch's guide to self care. There's so much wonderful information in this well written book. I especially loved the tea recipe in each section of the book. There is also an abundance of delicious recipes to enjoy. I'm definitely adding this book to my personal library.

This book is a great guide on the basics of being a kitchen witch.

It provides a comprehensive guide to healing and self care, and guidelines on all the essentials of spell casting: ingredients, crystals, phases of the moon etc.

It also contains spells, remedies and rituals, for self-care of the mind body and spirit. I'm particularly keen to try the Cinnamon Sugar Cookies for abundance and prosperity.

We all need to think about our relationship with food and what we're putting in our bodies. Making and eating food with intention I think is just another step in that journey that we can take.

A good introductory book, ideal for anyone interested in being a little bit witchy or just learning some more self-care techniques. It isn't an overwhelming book by any means, and the kitchen witch approach seems like an easy on-ramp for anyone interested in imbuing a bit of magick into their lives.

I really enjoyed this book. There is a ton of info in it (definitely calls for a few read-throughs) but this is definitely a book I wish I had when starting my kitchen witch journey.

I didn't know how much I needed this book. I love witchy self care but I'm not at my strongest in the kitchen, but this book was well written and helped even kitchen chaotics like me bring their self care into this realm of their lives. Also, some of these recipes that are included at the end sound fantastic and I can't wait to try them.

This is a great book full of healing recipes and ideas. I think the title is misleading somewhat in that it implies its witchcraft but I agree with the premise that connecting to oneself is missing in today's technological word. The body holds the wisdom!

Extremely detailed and really creative, I thought this book was fun to read through and discover ideas.

Thank you to the publisher and to NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Thanks to NetGalley for this delightful read!

This book is full of great insights and recipe ideas that all contribute to self care. Self care is so hard sometimes in this busy world and the author provides us with ways to be mindful in the moment. As a self identified kitchen witch I greatly enjoyed the recipes section (even if my little picky eaters would probably pass on the majority of these dishes) as I gave insights as to why certain ingredients work so well for certain purposes. I would recommend this books to anyone interested in witchcraft, mindfulness, or vegan cooking.
