Set the scene, you’ve arrived at your yoga class the atmosphere is calm and relaxed. Your teacher guides you through a grounding meditation and centreing breath work, maybe a gentle cat cow to warm up the spine and before you know it you’re at the front of your mat waiting in Tadasana (Mountain Pose) beforeContinue reading “Sun Salutation Workshop”
LifePlus Detox – Latest Up-date.
It’s nothing short of a miracle! I feel like my body is a machine. Following on from the metabolic cure (detox) that I put myself and my long suffering husband through last November I would like to add that despite my peers objections neither of us has piled the pounds back on. Ok, so you’reContinue reading “LifePlus Detox – Latest Up-date.”
Chicken Broccoli Burger
This tasty burger goes well with a mixed salad. My favourite is green salad with apple and walnuts and little balsamic lemon glaze*. The burgers can be prepared in advance and freeze nicely too. (*Not recommended if you are doing the metabolic cure, if you are doing the cure then make a mixed salad outContinue reading “Chicken Broccoli Burger”
Dear Detox Diary… The results are in!
I’ve just enjoyed my first detox free weekend (my husband calls it a “retox.”) There’s certainly some changes in my approach to food. First surprise of the new detoxed me is that I’m happy to stop at just one piece of chocolate instead of devouring the whole family sized bar. Second – I can onlyContinue reading “Dear Detox Diary… The results are in!”

Hubby has lost around 5kg in these firsts two weeks and I’ve lost around 4kg. I’llContinue reading “Dear Detox Diary – Part 2”
Chicken Curry
This fabulously healthy dinner is suitable for the metabolic cure and paleo diet. This recipe contains zero fat, carbs, sugar and dairy. It tastes beautifully fresh and divine. On the metabolic cure phase 2 this makes enough for 5 x 100 gram protein servings. For cooking without oil I use an electric non-stick grill andContinue reading “Chicken Curry”
Dear Detox Diary…
I had all the best intentions of writing a short daily blog, but alas life got in the way. I am now a week into the Metabolic Cure (not a diet, we’re not allowed to use the D word). It’s a month long programme that re-sets all the nastiness we have done to our bodiesContinue reading “Dear Detox Diary…”
Apanasana (Knees to Chest Pose) & Pawanmuktasana
Gentle, soothing and nurturing, Apanasana. Think about it, how often does this pose appear in our practice? For me, it’s every time, in my own practice, my group classes and for my private clients. Why? It’s a gentle and accessible pose for all. I enjoy using Apanasana as a simple warm up, easing into theContinue reading “Apanasana (Knees to Chest Pose) & Pawanmuktasana”
