The Festive Mindful Feast
at The Hive in Moseley
Do you long to feel rooted and radiant as winter draws in?
Join Markéta Bola (plant-based chef & Hippocrates Health Educator) and Cara Wheatley-McGrain (founder of The Mindful Gut) for a cosy, candle-lit dining experience to restore your glow from the inside out.
A morning that’s part feast, part mini-retreat, and part cheeky science lesson for your microbes.
This isn’t just dinner. It’s a love letter to your gut — and a reminder that plant-based food can be downright joyful, not just “virtuous.”
This nourishing gathering blends mindful eating, gut-loving plant-based food, and a touch of fermenting magic — helping you feel grounded, calm, and energised for the season ahead.
On the menu (literally and metaphorically):
– Taste seasonal plant-based tasting menu designed to love you back
– Create your own mini-ferment to take home. A playful workshop on probiotics, prebiotics & microbiome magic
– Simple, gut-healing tips you can actually use!
Reconnect with yourself, your senses, and your community
Connection, conversation & the sheer joy of eating together.
Discover the balance and brightness that come from mindful eating and living.
Come as you are. Leave lighter, calmer, and ready to meet the festive season with warmth, not rush.
Hosted in the gorgeous Hive space, this is food, community, and inspiration woven together.
Spots are limited. Early bird booking by 15 November here
