Personal Vision

In 2006, she had a personal vision of service that she wanted to provide, to awaken spirituality and its accessibility in everyday events. She wanted to facilitate clients in discovering, creating and living an authentic lifestyle that embraced spiritual awareness through the use of raw vegan foods, naturopathic medicine and holistic bodywork. She desired to show her clients that the quality of the food that they were eating was critical to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Sarah wanted to make use of her extensive experience in creating healthful cuisine. Sarah manifested this ideation by managing her own farm where she designed, built, and grew large, organic vegetable gardens and groves of fruit bearing trees. She made use of biodynamic methods, permaculture, and crop rotation, as well as organically raised Nubian goats and laying chickens. Through this farm, she was able to provide her clients with ultra-fresh, farm to table products while maintaining her passion for beautifully aesthetic, and health conscious food choices.

The work in her gardens and creativity in the kitchen triggered a spiritual transformation within her that enabled her to find sacredness and gratitude in everyday events. She found herself asking for a revelation, requesting a miracle that would give her a direction of how she was to use her skills and talents. The miracle that she found was a shift in perception that enabled her to perceive her life and all of its challenges with love, infused with vitality and clarified focus. That, in conjunction with her naturopathic and holistic background, was the inspiration behind the creation of Mannafest Living. Her interest in healthy gourmet cuisine and attention to detail, aided her in starting a personal chef business serving vegetarians, vegans and raw foodist.

She is passionately committed to helping them to create spiritual awareness by cultivating and enjoying all of the magnificent abundance that nature has to offer. She is an adamant believer in the body’s innate ability to heal itself and thrive when given the best sustenance, accompanied by holistic healing treatments, spiritual introspection and physical activity.
