💅🏽✨ Soft life loading…

This season it’s time to choose softness and beauty. It’s time to choose you!

From a gentle pink on my fingertips to the calm I’m calling into the day — it’s the little things that remind us “I’m worthy of ease, joy and care”.

Self-care isn’t just bubble baths and candles (though that’s amazing too).
It’s rest without guilt. Nourishing routines and possibly a manicure / pedicure steam that makes you smile for no reason. 💖

Here’s to slow days, fresh nails and living life on your own terms!

🌿So if you’re craving a space that celebrates this kind of ease — welcome to Guava Living. Our community is your reminder that softness is powerful, culture is grounding and you never have to walk the journey alone.

The softest club you’ll ever join is nearly open. We’re in the Guava Lab, stirring up the magic—just for you!

✨New day, same you — but with a little more glow!

You’ve stretched, you’ve sipped, maybe even broken a sweat (or just opened the window for fresh air — that counts too).

Here’s to starting the day with food that actually fills you, movement that fits your vibe and moments that remind you … you’re doing just fine 💕

No pressure, just progress.
No guilt, just good energy.

Wellness that feels like home 💛

🍔🍩 When your snacks start acting shady…

They may taste like a good time but processed foods loaded with sugar, salt and unhealthy fats are sneakily draining your vibe — and your vitality.

According to the renowned cardiologist Dr. Eric Topol, three core chronic illnesses are affecting millions of us today:

❤️ Heart disease
🧬 Cancer
🧠 Neurodegenerative diseases (like Alzheimer’s)

Here’s the twist:
✨ These aren’t just genetic fate — we can all help prevent them with everyday choices rooted in wellness.

At Guava Living, we believe true wellbeing is bigger than diet and fitness trends. It’s about daily care for your whole self — body, mind and spirit.

Here’s our kind of medicine:
🥗 Nourishing food choices
😴 Deep, dreamy sleep
🚶🏽‍♀️ Movement that feels joyful (not punishing)
🕊️ Spiritual connection and stillness
💦 Hydration, sunlight & rest (yes, rest is productive!)

We’re not here to guilt you into salads or scare you with stats. We’re here to support you with trusted, culturally-rooted tools and inspiration — so you can build a life that feels good to live in.

As the week winds down, let’s ease out with grace 🌿 and release the cycle of doing without return.

No more energy leaks or spiritual overdrafts 💸 that drains peace from our emotional bank account 🙏🏾.

Let’s align our energy with purpose, not pressure ✨ — and be sure that what we pour out nourishes our surroundings, not disappears into empty spaces.

It’s time to prioritise what truly matters 💛.

Whew! This weekend was a whirlwind — two big events, meeting up with amazing friends and taking in some beautiful spots along the way 💃🏽🍹🌸

Manic? Absolutely.
Magical? Without a doubt.

From dancing till late to laughing in good company, I squeezed every bit of sunshine, joy and energy out of the weekend. And honestly… my feet still haven’t recovered 😅

It’s the kind of full-up living I’m grateful for — loud moments, soft ones and all the beauty in between.

Now it’s Monday and I’m carrying the good vibes with me (plus a nap, if I can squeeze one in).

These are the days we hold onto — community, connection and the gift of simply being alive.

Thanking God for strength, for joy and for pouring beauty into every step of the journey.

On beautiful days like this, take a moment to pause. 🌿
Not to plan, not to worry — but simply to be.

Be present.
Be grateful.
Be still.

Some of our loved ones never got the time to stop and enjoy the sunshine. So today, we honour their memory by doing what they couldn’t:
🌞 feeling the warmth
🌿 noticing the breeze
💛 smiling, because we’re still here.

Let’s be thankful for this moment — not rushing to the next, but at peace with now. That’s what we’re here to encourage in this space. Presence. Gratitude. Gentle joy.

A little throwback to one of our most beloved dishes … The Big Breakfast! full of plant-based island comfort, colour and care. A plate that didn’t just fill you up, it slowed you down.

Food like this reminded us:
Nourishment is more than what’s on your plate — it’s how you feel when you eat it. Relaxed. Grounded. Grateful.

Guava Living is here to bring that energy into your everyday.

Creating Island recipes. Tropical flavour. Wellness made warm and real.

We’re building something beautiful — and you’re invited.

We are excited to announce some new changes taking place at The Guava Kitchen with immediate effect. We have decided to remodel the business so that we can become more accessible to a wider audience.

We will now be deep diving into the catering world, supper clubs, special events at secret locations, philanthropy collaborations and so much more…… so watch this space to join us for the next exciting Guava chapter!

To allow us to effectively deliver the next part of our journey, it is with deep sadness that we have taken the decision to no longer have a walk in service at our Forest Hill location. However, our delivery service will continue from 1st October. Please see our website and social media platforms for further information.

We want to take this opportunity to thank everyone for being part of our journey so far. With every meal, you are continuing to help us to deliver our vision “the Pathway is Food …. The Goal is Change” – supporting a healthier world.

We want to send a special thank you to all our team members past, present and future. We will always be eternally grateful for all your devotion, passion, love and laughter we share together - you will always be the foundation of our journey.

Our last and only walk in service will be at our Farewell event on Sunday 22nd September 6pm – 10pm. Come down and join us for drinks and a FREE buffet. This is will be a TICKET ONLY event. Free Tickets will be available soon on Eventbrite.

“Life does not get better by Chance. It gets better by Change”. We remain forever THANKFUL 🙏
