Psychologists say that culinary activities fit into a type of therapy called “behavioral activation”.
In this form of therapy, the goal is to alleviate a low mood by increasing positive activity and goal-oriented behavior… while curbing passivity and procrastination.
When the mind is focused on following a recipe, negative thinking is curbed. Self-esteem is enhanced as the students chop, blend and sizzle their way to the end goal – a completed dish.
Jacqueline Gollan, associate professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago, says:
One study published in the British Journal of Occupational Therapy found that baking classes increased concentration, and provided a sense of achievement for patients being treated in inpatient mental health clinics.
And if you have kids at home or grandchildren who visit, including them in culinary activities can set them up for a healthy future, too.
Recent research conducted by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) found that childhood obesity begins with fewer parents spending time cooking with their kids.
Derek Hersch, lead author of the CDC study and collaborator on the Food Explorers cooking education program at the Minnesota Heart Institute Foundation says:
"It is important to expose children to healthy foods in a positive way. Creating habits and behaviors at this age is the most important part of it."
Hersch found that children ages 5-12 who were enrolled in cooking education programs experienced numerous healthy benefits, including:
But you don’t need to enroll your kids or grandkids in an expensive cooking program to get the same benefits. In fact, Hersch says that kids can reap even more benefits by cooking in their own home, where they are comfortable.
What’s more, home-cooked meals generally contain more nutrients and fewer calories than those consumed outside the home.

Hi, we’re Kelley & Jon Herring… Welcome to our kitchen!
Wellness Bakeries was founded in 2006, with the mission to create the world’s healthiest and best-tasting gluten-free, carb-conscious, baking mixes.
Our goal was to make it easy for you to enjoy decadent desserts, chewy breads, crusty pizza, fluffy pancakes, crispy waffles and other sweet treats – that would not sour your health!
When we started this journey, there were no options for truly healthy baking mixes.
Everything was loaded with inflammatory grains, fake fats and sugar…or even worse, artificial sweeteners. We knew there had to be a better – and MUCH healthier – way.
So, with our backgrounds in health research, nutritional biochemistry and recipe development, we set out to use grain-free flours, healthy, slimming fats and natural no-sugar sweeteners to match the taste, texture and flavor of our favorite comfort foods.
At the time, very few people had even heard the term “gluten free.” There were no products to taste for inspiration and no recipe books to follow. It was all trial… and LOTS of errors.
Eventually, however, the experiments paid off. We discovered a few secrets. And then we made small, incremental improvements… perfecting one delicious product at a time.
And while it certainly wasn’t easy…
In 2008, Wellness Bakeries began offering our healthy baking mixes to the world.
And while our goal today is to make “healthy baking” easy for YOUR family… it all began with a desire to feed our family in a better way.
So, you can be sure that every Wellness Bakeries product is Kid-Tested & Mom Approved!

We’re so grateful for you taking the time to visit Wellness Bakeries.
We hope you enjoy our uniquely delicious products as much as we have enjoyed creating them for you. We truly appreciate your support!
I have tried some of the sampler packs from Wellness Bakeries and so far have been very pleased with the results. I feel good about eating your products because I know the ingredients have been well researched and carefully selected. It’s wonderful to be able to satisfy my husband’s and my huge sweet tooth with desserts that are not only delicious but actually good for you!

Thank you so much for creating your products! My husband has to watch his blood sugar carefully. I was so glad to learn that there are options for all-natural, low-glycemic desserts. I am even happier to say that we love the taste. It is hard to believe that something this good can be so good for you!

"I love what you do. I am gluten intolerant and reducing sugar, so your products fill the bill perfectly. I started with the Chocolate Bliss, Carrot Cake, Chocolate Chip Cookies and Drinking Chocolate. I have enjoyed them all! There are a lot of gluten-free products, but it is hard to find products that are gluten-free and low glycemic. Keep coming up with recipes and new products… they’re great!"
— Bari H.
"I’ve been looking for products like yours for a long time. My family loves dessert, but I hate the thought of feeding them so much sugar. We tried desserts with artificial sweeteners, but my kids always responded YUCK! We made our first batch of your cupcakes last night. I’m so impressed! More importantly, my family LOVED them!"
— Karen W.
"Going grain-free and sugar-free has been a challenge. I was looking for ways to have a treat without blowing my new way of eating. I have tried your chocolate cake, chocolate chip cookies and ginger cookies. The texture in grain-free, sugar-free products is usually crumbly and mealy. But your products are exceptional! I will be trying new ones and reordering the ones I have already tried."
— Gina S.
"I love your baking mixes. When I decided to eat less gluten and sugar, I dreaded not being able to enjoy my favorite sweets. I tried some gluten-free products but none offered the right flavor and texture, until I found yours! I made the Chocolate Bliss cupcakes and they were soooo good. Didn't even get them frosted before they were gone! I don't recall how your website found me, but I’m sure glad it did!"
— Suzanne Z.
"I am so thankful for your products! I ordered Chocolate Bliss Cake and absolutely LOVE it! It is so nice to enjoy something sweet without the sugar crash of most desserts. I feel great when I eat this cake and I don’t even feel guilty!! I eat low-glycemic and paleo as much as possible. I just feel healthier and more energetic when I eat this way. I have not found anything that compares to your products!"
— Andrea H.
"I want to thank you for the delicious and OOOOH SOOOOOOO good for you desserts! I just tried them and was SO IMPRESSED with the taste, texture and, of course, clean ingredients! I am a drugless health practitioner and weight loss coach and have started sharing your website with my clients. Everyone needs to know about you! Thank you again for all you do and for offering such "wholesome" products!"
