what I ate for breakfast...day #0

hello dear www, So, this is me, failing at keeping a blog running. haha. I’ve started this foodinstaaccount, kept it running for a little while and then quit again. well, it’s been a busy year. but here I am, restarting both my blog and my instaaccount again.

this time for real, because I need to track the next weeks, what I’ve been eating etc to see if my gut health improves. as I posted previous I’m intolerant to alliums (garlic, leek, onions...) and I’ve been vegan for a bit more than two years now. this is not the easiest combination, as you might guess. and while I’ve managed it quite well at home, eating out sucks. it really does. and I’m sick of not being able to enjoy a night out at a restaurant because I already know that I will suffer from cramps and bloating etc.

while I’ve been researching ways to improve my gut health I stumbled across “Eating Clean” by Amie Valpone, an American who’s been suffering from chronic illness and autoimmune diseases for over ten years until she finally cured herself with food.  

so I’m going to give this a try for the next couple of weeks. and while I’m a bit afraid of cutting out even more stuff from my mealplan, I’m happy because I really think this could help me and as a nice side effect help me produce less waste! yay!

so this little series for the at least next three weeks is called: “what I ate for breakfast...day #X”

so what did I have for breakfast?? well today... I didn’t start with the clean eating thing yet. I just came home from a trip to Spain and Portugal and was invited to join friends for breakfast. vegan pancakes and vegan omelette...yummie!

but I started the day with some hot water & lemon with a tiny tiny bit of salt. this is a part of a “Yoga Ritual” series I’ve just started again by Adriene Mishler (goddess of youtube-yoga!! <3). In “Yoga Ritual” you do a yoga&meditation session each day, start with water & a lemon slice and a walk. (I haven’t done the practice yet...gonna do it before bedtime, unwind the day etc...)

of course the dietary change isn’t limited to breakfast, so I will give you an insight of what I had for lunch: buddha bowl! this food trend finally hit me, although I think I kind of did them before they were a thing, just not in a bowl. I had some leftovers from yesterday: brussels sprout hummus, roasted cauliflower, sauerkraut, lettuce & mushrooms, topped with lemon juice and fresh coriander. yummie and good for the bowl flora!! dinnertime? I’ll tell you later, I’m just preparing something, and not sure how it will turn out... hint: squash gnocchis with buckwheat, never cooked with buckwheat before... let’s see!

music of the day: Charlie Cunningham mood of the day: happy to be home, starting to feel fall-timey gut feeling of the day: still upset, but slowly calming down

talk later!

that’s my lunch, by the way :-)

The source from which life movement flows and to which it returns. This etheric field contains a nonlinear, formless, natural intelligence which is also called the organizing principle, the universal order or the primordial OM. This self-organizing principle can be seen throughout nature as fractal patterns; from plants to animals to the human being, there is order within the chaos of creation. These patterns can also be seen within the fascial system. The connective tissue has a nonlinear component, and the connections between fibres are multidimensional. If we want to move in such a way to target this intelligent living system, it makes sense that our movements need to come from a higher consciousness that is itself multidimensional. My priority as a Fascia Coach is to help to release musculoskeletal tension, teach meditative breath and movement rituals for bodymind relaxation and work on a wide spreading of knowledge about the fascial system and its virtues. If you have any questions let me know. I welcome young and older, individuals and practitioners, for one on one sessions as well as for groups and professionals.

“Life is a journey, we are born ceaselessly into the future.” ~ Ubbe, son of Ragnar Our minds are complex things. We are capable of living in all dimensions of time. We gather information from the past and we envision the future. All this from the vantage point of the present. We have been doing this for so many generations,however, that it is too easy to do so unconsciously. Allowing ourselves to become caught up in regretting or harking back to the past, and even reproducing it for the future. It is important that we recognise that the present moment is where we truly exist. This gives us the power both of experience and of choice. In this workshop we will break down the process into the physical through our asana (poses) practice. We will be using the tools in your ritual package to support a conscious process, growing presence and envisioning a bright path ahead of us. WORKSHOP DETAILS: looking forwards + ritual package @yahra.uk online sunday 31st january 2-4pm book early via MindBody to ensure your ritual package arrives with you on time for the workshop! I’m so excited to make magic with you once more ✨ #shashaspiritledlife #yogaritual #yogaworkshop #onlineyoga #ritualpackage #crystals #visualisation #mantra #mudra #meditation #yogaasana #lookingforwards #positivemindset #futuregazing https://www.instagram.com/p/CKOFlyZjcgQ/?igshid=vygyor2jcwfl

🍂FALL INTO FREEDOM🍂 It is much closer than you think. The freedom to feel how you wish to feel comes from accepting how you feel right now, and knowing that it will change. 🍂 “You shall be free indeed when your days are not without a care nor your nights without a want and a grief, But rather when these things girdle your life and you rise above them naked and unbound.” ~ Khalil Gibran 🍂 ***** If you would like to explore freedom through transition my Yoga Ritual Workshop 🍁 // EMBRACING AUTUMN //🍁 takes place at @thezenshed 2pm on Saturday 26th September at the studio on New Street and online via Zoom 🥰🙏🏼🍁 📷 @charlotteburnphotography #shashaspiritledlife #yogaritual #yogaceremony #silence #teaceremony #makespace #embraceautumn #embracingautumn #newmoonwitch #magick #faechild #yogaworcester #onlineyogaworkshop #transitions https://www.instagram.com/p/CFZEpuqjUkV/?igshid=9gnf448b6ljb

🧡SUBMIT TO SILENCE🧡 “It is to not feel what we feel that we keep ourselves so distracted and lost in our minds” ~Burgs 🍁 Anyone who knows me knows that I need silence. To function at my best, I need space between things. I need to be able to take in every detail of the transition, in real time. This gives me space to make adjustments, internally and externally, for the energies incoming. 🍁 My son and I have lived alone since he very early years, so we have adapted to allow space for each other without losing our connection. He will tell me when I need to back off and I likewise with him. 🍁 Space is not a rejection, it is allowing of the self to express itself without interruption. To recharge by shedding what needs to be shed and allowing the receptivity to receive the beneficial and even allow the mind to surrender its fixed position on one thing or another. 🍁 Regretting the end of summer is not going to change anything. That transition will occur unhindered by the will of Wo/man. 🍁 We are between the worlds. As this sun rises after a new moon stay silent and allow it to illuminate what is really arising from within you. There are no shocks to the system when you allow yourself to recognise the transition that seems to be happening to you, is actually happening through you, if you let it. 🍁 If you would like to explore transition in a workshop setting, my Yoga Ritual Workshop 🍁 // EMBRACING AUTUMN //🍁 takes place at @thezenshed 2pm on Saturday 26th September at the studio on New Street and online via Zoom 🥰🙏🏼🍁 #shashaspiritledlife #yogaritual #yogaceremony #silence #teaceremony #makespace #embraceautumn #embracingautumn #newmoonwitch #magick #faechild #yogaworcester #onlineyogaworkshop #transitions https://www.instagram.com/p/CFSnvtfj5yw/?igshid=qew9if7g49d3

Exercise isn't just for healthy people. No. Even Goth Viking types who are afraid of the sun and don't own any workout clothes can get down on the floor and stretch for a few minutes a day. #YogaRitual https://www.instagram.com/p/BtT-R-UFNKJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19pgv10308rbj
