Self-Care with Jean
This week, we're gathering in the kitchen to talk about something wonderfully simple: black beans. They're humble. They're affordable. They're ancient. And they've nourished generations across cultures and kitchens for centuries. I wanted to spend this episode reminding us all that the most healing foods are often not extravagant — they're the ones that connect us to earth, to family, to comfort, and to resilience. We talk about why black beans are such nutritional powerhouses — rich in plant-based protein, fiber, iron, magnesium, potassium, folate, and antioxidants — and why their steady, slow-digesting energy is such a gift for our blood sugar and our hearts. I also share why I want to challenge you to try cooking dried black beans from scratch this week, instead of reaching only for the can. There's something deeply grounding about rinsing them, soaking them overnight, and simmering them slowly with onion, garlic, bay leaf, and cumin the next morning. The whole kitchen fills with warmth. And of course, I couldn't leave you without recipes — four of them, including one that might surprise you (hint: brownies 🍫). This episode is really about abundance — not abundance in excess, but abundance as enough. Enough nourishment. Enough comfort. Enough to share. I'd love for you to join me in the kitchen this week. Pour yourself a cup of tea, and let's slow down together. 💚 Visit Jean's website: SelfCareWithJean.com [https://selfcarewithjean.com/]! ----- Ask Jean [https://selfcarewithjean.com/ask-jean/] | Jean's downloads [https://selfcarewithjean.com/downloads/] | Book Jean for your next event [https://selfcarewithjean.com/events/] ----- Follow Jean on Social Media: Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/jeanedelmanpodcast/] | X [https://twitter.com/jean_edelman] | YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqj20GNHbBtXX4cVvHUn0zg] Listen to Jean on your favorite podcast app: Apple [https://apple.co/3CJu1NF] | Spotify [https://spoti.fi/3vWPZcj] | iHeart [https://ihr.fm/3CJxNqs]
