I started off with Italian

I find it's the funnest culture to cook with, make my own pastas, sauces, etc

Going to one day get into French cooking once I'm confident enough

>>38047006
youtube is a great resource for inspiration

I couldn't recommend mindfullness meditation enough

>>38047006
Get a regional cookbook and work through it so you don't waste a load of money buying spices and powder that you forget about

>>38047024
elaborate? is that just when you close your eyes and only focus on your breathing?

>>38047006

I shouldn't,but if you don't learn how to cook there,at least you'll learn what to NOT do.

>>38047049

OP here's some things you may appreciate:

Listen to In Our Time podcasts

Pirate a few "Great Courses"

Read literature, if you want, I can post a few charts/give recommendations.

Meditate - Mindfulness in Plain English is a good guide and available free online

Listen to good music (Bach's Cantata 12)

>>38047154
You don't have to associate meditation with buddhism. It is possible to be a meditator for the psychological benefits and ignore the spirituality aspects

>>38047180
I know.

But the guidance of Buddhism in regards to meditation is highly beneficial to even a secular practice.

tfw you download self improvement audio books

>>38047006
Literally anywhere, your mum, youtube, cooking books, random fucking websites. The resources are always out there, especially for simple stuff like this.

>>38047238
As cheesy as they are, self improvement audio books actually do manage to get me motivated

>>38047246
I take in the information they give somewhat reservedly and think about it critically instead of just being "yup that's the solution". With this you need to read lots of other stuff in order to judge the information against each other but I think it's the right way to do things.
