My soul spirit being was searching to be heard, be understood in regard to nourishment. Half a lifetime of trying to fit in a square box of how 'I was to BE' or should be! How to feed your kids, family, how to feel, look and be happy. That all changed the moment I yarned to Tracey Pattison. Each session was a Returning-a coming home to my soul-spirit and connection to my Ancestors, culture and remembering and activation of a natural way of being. Therefore, my journey then became about me returning to a natural state of being and not to Fit in to a White privilege society that hijacked my Cultural way of life. To live and BE nourished from Mother and the Elements. Growing my food, respecting the local produce and food of the Water to nourish and sustain me. To allow my body rest and to practice what my Ancestors taught me: 'Take only what you Need.

' From a deep part of my soul spirit, Tracey, the Ancestors and I honour you. - Annabelle Sharman, founder of A Sharman HOPE Healing There's a vibration that comes from young children when they wholeheartedly delight in something - a deep hum, a gentle closing of the eyes, and, in my family, a little bum wiggle. Priestess Your Plate is like a big, delicious hug from your ancestors welcoming you home and thanking you for choosing to nourish yourself. There are gloriously simple, seasonal recipe pairings that are free from BS about superfoods and food fads. Tracey humbly takes us through her own 25-year experience of cooking and writing through the lens of diet culture. As Tracey says of food patriarchy, you'd have to be a mystical flying unicorn to have escaped it completely. Tracey reminds us that food and how we prepare and consume it, is an entire compassion practice for the self, for the earth, our ancestral traumas and the next generation for whom we pass all of this down to. - Dr Erin Bowe, Clinical Psychologist and author of More Than a Healthy Baby: Finding Strength and Growth After Birth Trauma Priestess Your Plate is a holistic, holy book that nourishes the soul of a priestess, and I am so grateful it is in the world.

Tracey Pattison opens the portal by taking us on her personal journey, weaving her medicine through vivid storytelling. She then honors our spirit by allowing us to remember our ancestors' rhythms and how they fed themselves through seasonal magic. It ends with the Goddesses teaching us how food can nourish our souls as we sovereignly priestess our plate. This book is a sacred text in honor of The Mother, and I am blessed to have received its messages. - Sora Schilling, founder of The DEVOTED Way, prosperity coach, energy healer, co-founder of Priestess Temple School Since the birth of my three children, which coincided with my own personal spiritual awakening journey, I've felt lost in the kitchen. I've been able to feel fully empowered in my intuition in all areas of my life, except with food. I was always seeking, never satisfied, and felt disconnected. I've tried every fad.

None have worked. Priestess Your Plate has given voice to this emptiness, and a pathway home. Tracey's energy, and love for food oozes from the pages of Priestess Your Plate. This is more than a cookbook, more than a food philosophy. It's a reclamation. The final piece of the spiritual awakening puzzle. A return home. - Shunanda Scott, angel medium, author of The New Angel Messages.
