Today we went for a lovely walk around our local nature reserve. It was a beautiful day and we were surrounded by flowers, trees and wildlife. The perfect start to my photography project. <3

A Trip To London

-

We took a trip to London a few weeks ago with the boys, this was their first time visiting London and they really enjoyed it. Luke absolutely loved Hyde Park, looking at all the wildlife and hand feeding a squirrel. We spent most of Saturday morning walking around and exploring. It's such a beautiful part of London, and Luke definitely prefers to be in nature. He gets it from me!! Dylan loved seeing some of the famous landmarks such as Big Ben, the London Eye, The Shard, Tower Bridge and the Tower of London, and he really enjoyed visiting the Museum of Natural History. They both enjoyed going on the tube and walking along the Thames. I got to eat at the Wild Food Cafe in Covent Garden, my favourite place to eat in London, and had a lovely raw pizza and salad. I also visited my favourite herbal tea shop to stock up on teas. As always one of the best things for me was walking around with my camera, taking lots of photos of these lovely memories... ...

Raw Strawberry Cheesecake

I had a day to myself yesterday, so I decided that a little self care would be a good idea.  I made a nutritious green smoothie and a raw strawberry cheesecake, and after a guided visualization, followed by an hour session of kundalini yoga, I sat in the garden to enjoy them.  The sun was shining, and it was very peaceful. It felt so lovely to give myself the gift of this precious time.  It's moments like these that really help me to feel calm and connected. Nature really does have a very powerful, healing effect. And here's the recipe for the cheesecake, hope you enjoy it as much as I did! Raw Strawberry Cheesecake Crust 1 Cup of Walnuts 1 Cup of Desiccated Coconut Handful of Dates, preferably medjool Blend the ingredients, then place into a bowl and press down firmly.  Place in the fridge. Topping 1 Cup of Cashews Large Handful of Strawberries 1/4 Cup of Coconut Oil, melted 1tsp Vanilla Extract 1/4 Cup of Maple Syrup ...

Creating Simplicity

We may be in February already, but this is my first post of 2014. Time seems to be flying by! My blog may have been quiet, but life certainly hasn't. I've been very busy with the boys, studying, working, creating and making plans for my new business. It's been an eventful and exciting time. My theme for the beginning of this year was to let go, release and simplify, and that was definitely true for January. I spent hours decluttering the house, unsubscribing to newsletters that I no longer needed, letting go of ideas and plans that were no longer in alignment with my life, unsubscribing to magazines and releasing negative thoughts and beliefs. I still have more to do, but it feels extremely freeing to simply let go. From my medicine wheel, which I did back in December, the word for January was "opening". I focused on this word every day and felt more open to any opportunities that happened. I tried to keep an open mind and trust that whatever was happ...
