Delicious & Healthy Banana Bread recipe now on the website. I've been making & tinkering with banana bread for years, always a family favourite & finally settling on this recipe. Healthy, moist & so so yum, tested on the family & they agree, best banana bread we've ever had.
So from my kitchen to yours, enjoy! ###

I know a few people are turned off by the word moist, but for lack of a better word, this banana bread just fits the bill. Made with Wholemeal spelt flour, almond meal and lots of bananas, its texture is just to-die-for! I hope you enjoy this as much as my hubby & 5 year old do, it's certainly a fav...

Just going to leave this here...

If you are a tea drinker, use an organic loose leaf tea and steep it. Using a stainless steel or glass strainer will reduce your microplastic exposure significantly.

If you like using tea bags for their convenience or portability, make sure you’re getting the kind that’s free from bisphenol-A (BPA), phthalates, polypropylene, and epichlorohydrin. Look for tea bags made from organic h**p, cotton, or plant fibers instead.

Tea can be an incredible source of antioxidants in your life, but just like food—quality matters.

I love this quote.

08/07/2022

🙏🏻

We all have days when the bad things seem to outweigh the good ones and we begin to think that life isn’t fair. You get stuck in traffic, which makes you late for an important meeting, and then your car gets towed. You might ask yourself, “Why me?” Events like this one can test anyone’s ability to be grateful and feel optimistic. If you have a tendency to feel sorry for yourself, and many of us do, things usually progress to the next stage: the pity party. You begin to feel like the innocent victim of a dismal fate because you are seeing your life through inaccurate lenses. Most of the thoughts that run through your mind at times like these are not helpful, and they mainly serve to increase your indignation and feelings of powerlessness. What these feelings and thoughts don’t do is change your circumstances or make you feel better. https://bit.ly/3u65rm5

Just made this with my 4 year old, just with a couple of tweaks... 25% of the sugar it asks for, wholemeal spelt & buckwheat flour & no icing. It was delicious & moist!

So many examples everywhere we look for beauty & goodness!

I know there's a lot of pain going on for everyone right now, with everyone going through hardship on various levels.
And sometimes it can be deeply disheartening, or we may be tempted to believe that the world is changing in a negative way.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But it is a choice, a choice of what you want to believe in. The truth is that whatever you focus on you grow within yourself!
⠀⠀⠀⠀

So, if you want glowing health, prosperity, love in all its forms, happiness & peace... Then start counting your blessings, and never stop!
An there are a thousand things to be thankful for... Some that I'm thankful for:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🙏🏻 Plants - oxygen, nourishment, beauty, building materials!
🙏🏻 Healthcare - public, alternative & integrative, science and traditional knowledge.. & how they work hand-in-hand
🙏🏻 Love - family, animals, beauty, self-love, universal unconditional love
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you feel like you've been focussing on the wrong things, or the state of your life or the world around you points towards this... Some lovely ideas which have helped me in the past, and may help you include: keeping a gratitude journal or even just writing down everything you're grateful for, trying to give to others what you yourself crave, loving heart-opening meditation such as the Annapurna technique, and simply just "flipping the script" - simply re-writing your self-talk whenever you hear it.
I hope this helps you all in some small way 🙏🏻💙
