Ohana found that doing therapy in the kitchen can make things move faster. “Cooking offers immediate satisfaction as you work your way through a recipe (食谱),” Ohana added. She uses cooking to help people build their confidence and relax. She starts by learning about what food people like to eat, their cooking skills and allergies (过敏 ). Then, they prepare dishes together. 2 Ohana thinks it’s important that when a person is cooking, they focus more on the process (关注过程). Like art or music therapy, cooking is about the process, not just the result. She thinks that making meals, while being completely focused, is a very special and important experience. ( )26.
