What does your kitchen need right now? A small refresh? A good scrubbing? Fresh energy for fall? Welcome to our annual Kitchn Cure, a 20-day journey of cleaning, organizing, and sitting with your kitchen, creating a more restful and mindful place to cook and eat.

A More Mindful Kitchen

This year’s Cure is led by Dana Velden, the author of our Weekend Meditations column, and of the new book, Finding Yourself in the Kitchen: Kitchen Meditations and Inspired Recipes from a Mindful Cook. Dana will offer you a daily assignment to get your kitchen a little cleaner and your mind a little clearer when it comes to cooking and loving your home just a little bit more. You’ll end with a cleaner kitchen and a refreshed love of your space.

Sign Up for The Kitchn Cure!

Sign up for the Cure; it starts Monday, September 7. You’ll get a note from Dana in your inbox each weekday, with that day’s exercise. Come along with us to make your kitchen happier, healthier, and ready for cooking.
