Do you read travel blogs? I wrote one this month about my mini road trip across Europe. This is a photo from a bakery in Bruges, which was our first stop. But that was a few weeks ago and today I have a new blog out talking about why I meditate and sharing my story of how I started. Check the link in the bio! --------------- А вы читаете блоги о путешествиях? Эта фотография пекарни в Брюгге, которую я сделала путешествия по Европе на Пасху, если вам интересно, то читайте мой блог на thinkingforliving.com А сегодня я написала новый пост про то как я начала медитировать и что в моей жизни поменялось за это время. Линк в профиле! Буду очень благодарна если вы загляните 😊

WORLD MEDITATION DAY. It’s today. I can’t imagine my life without it. I’ve started 3 years ago and meditation has been helping me to feel and BE BETTER. I am definitely a nicer person than I was before I started. And I rush a little less. I feel more connected to people around me and I see more joy in simple things. It’s a very valuable tool in a crazy ride called life, I am dreaming of a day when meditation will be taught in schools. Do you meditate and what is your favourite type of meditation? ------------------------- МЕЖДУНАРОДНЫЙ ДЕНЬ МЕДИТАЦИИ. Сегодня!! Я начала практиковать медитацию 3 года назад и теперь я не толко чувствую себя лучше, я веду себя лучше и немного добрее. Меньше суечусь. Чувствую более глубокую связь с людьми и природой и нахожу больше счастья в мелочах. Медитация - это очень важный инструмент для навигации наших несущихся со страшной скоростю жизней, мечтаю что в (скором) будущем ее будут преподавать во всех школах. А вы медитируете? Какой у вас любимый вид?

Today is a beautiful day, the sun is out, the sky is blue and a cute ginger cat is in the garden basking for food and trying to get into the house. I think she is a girl and we called her 'Carrot' 🥕🐈 She looks exactly like this emoji 😆 Love making friends with animals, especially cats! Feeling so much love for little creatures ❤I hope you are having a wonderful Sunday and you come across a love-full kitty cat. ---------------------------- Замечательный день сегодня - солнце светит, небо голубое и ласковая рыжая кошка пришла знакомиться в наш сад. Я назвала её 'Морковка' 🥕🐈 Выглядит совсем как этот emoji! Люблю животных ❤ Надеюсь ваше воскресенье проходит отлично ☺️ (at Hyde Park, Leeds)

“Real travel requires a maximum of unscheduled wandering, for there is no other way of discovering surprises and marvels, which, as I see it, is the only good reason for not staying at home.” ― Alan W. Watts "В настоящем путешествии необходимо провести максимум времени незапланированно заблудившись, потому что нет другого способа наткнуться на удивительные сюрпризы, что, по-моему, единственная реальная причина не оставаться дома." ― Алан Воттс

Lunching at Slug and Lettuce. I'm right next to the London Eye soaking up the atmosphere and watching people walk by (mostly tourists). Its such a glorious day, I would love to be a tourist in London today myself 😀 They've got a new Spring menu on from today and there are quite a few vegan options (just don't eat the sauce). WIN! I'm having tempura vegetables, fried jalapeno slices and breaded mushrooms. Swapped garlic mayo and sour cream for olive oil. Fried jalapeños are my favourite, even though I'm not used to spicy food. Delicious! What are you having for lunch today? 🤤🌸🌈🥑🌶🥗🥙🌮🌯 #SLNewMenu #GetTogether @sluglettuce #ad (at Slug & Lettuce County Hall)

Feeling SO good today! Its finally warm and sunny outside and I woke up before my alarm just after 5 am, did yoga, meditation and my other wonderful morning routines and I feel powerful! I feel that my physical strength is finally coming back, I forgot how good it feels! It has definitely got something to do with the warmth and probably because of doing 2 detox days last week. For the last few years I have been running 2 half marathons a year (Leeds half in May and Royal Parks London in October). However, this winter and spring I didn't feel like training at all and decided that my body needs rest. It was a good decision as Leeds Half is on this weekend and I wouldn't have been ready. Its good to honour the body and don't get too caught up in what the mind tells us. Taking time off does not mean you are a failure! Rest when you need to rest. This year Im going to devote my time to practicing yoga and do a teacher training in September. Im very excited and turning down the volume of my running means I have more time and energy to learn new things and tackle challenges. It's going to be a great year and I'm so happy that Im getting my strength back 😁 🐾 🐦Thinkforliving 🌈thinkingforliving.com __________________________________________ Сегодня я чувствую себя отлично, очень сильной! Наконец-то сила возвращается ко мне, после стольких месяцев я уже забыла на что способна. Я решила не принимать участие в двух ежегодных полу-марафонах, а вместо этого дать организму отдохнуть и посвятить этот год усиленной практике йоги. В сентябре я буду проходить тренинг и смогу обучать в 2018! В последние несколько месяцев были сомнения смогу ли я потянуть физически, ведь ето будут интенсивные 4 месяца. Сегодня я поняла что да, смогу! Год предстоит отличный ⭐️⭐️⭐️ (at England)

I made a green smoothie and instead of a glass drinking it out of a coconut! Why not? In the smoothie: 🔹Spinach 🔹Avocado 🔹Apple 🔹Cucumber 🔹Lime 🔹Coconut 🔹Fresh mint 🔹Water Vegetable-based smoothies fill me up better and my blood sugar doesn't drop shortly after. My preference might change in the the summer, but now Im feeling like less fruit 👍 How do you like your smoothies? 🐾 🐦Thinkforliving 🌈thinkingforliving.com __________________________________________ С чем вы любите пить смузи? Я в последнее время люблю их с овощами и поменьше фруктов. Может летом все опять поменяется! 👍 (at London, United Kingdom)

Hey everyone, I finally have a new recipe for you all! Spring is the time of change. One minute its hot and sunny, then its overcast and windy, then its raining, then sunny again. All of this can aggravate the body and mind. Perfect time to eat hot gooey vegetable soup made with coconut oil and warming spices. The recipe is on my blog, link in the bio! Enjoy 🌱 🐾 🐦Thinkforliving 🌈thinkingforliving.com __________________________________________ Привет всем! У нас весна и погода очень переменчивая, то жарко, то холодно, то ветренно, то дождик. Чтобы сбалансировать такие перепады я приготовила перловый суп с кокосовым маслом и специями. Рецепт по линку в профиле. Надеюсь у вас уже теплеет! (at London, United Kingdom)

Having extra time to make breakfast on Saturday calls for cooking something a little bit more complicated. Well, not really. It only takes slightly longer to cook. Sweet potato toast, have you tried it yet? The trick is to slice sweet potato thinly (5-10mm) and stick into the toaster on max time. 3 times. Until the edges are slightly burnt, which means keep your windows open just in case you have a sensitive fire alarm. It should look a bit burn on the outside. I'm having mine with caramelised onion hummus, wild garlic pesto, sun dried tomatoes, mushrooms and spinach. It goes especially well with avocado, but I didn't have any today. Enjoy! 🐾 🐦Thinkforliving 🌈thinkingforliving.com (at Hyde Park, Leeds)

Spring is here!!! Look at the abundance of green everywhere, eat your greens people 💚 🌱 🐦Thinkforliving 🌈thinkingforliving.com (at London, United Kingdom)

I don't know about you, but I love eating fresh home cooked meals. Organic. Full of flavour. Made just for me! (Mostly by me 😂) And it doesn't have to take long to cook. I make my lunches in the morning and all it takes me is about 20 mins. All I do (most days) is I combine what's in my organic veg box with grains, pasta or lentils. Sounds repetitive, but its not, the possibilities of combinations are endless! Today Im having fried courgette, potato and tomatoes with green lentils, garlic and dill and toasted sesame oil. Easy! 🐾 🐦Thinkforliving 🌈thinkingforliving.com (at London, United Kingdom)

MEDITATION || I spent last weekend in Brighton, absorbed in a wonderful atmosphere mastering new meditation techniques and enjoying a company of lovely friends who were as eager to learn as I was. I l started practising meditation 3 years ago when completed an online course on Mind Body Green, but I have been the most consistent with it in the last 1,5 years once I did a 3-day course in London. Since then I haven’t missed a day, in fact, I meditate twice a day every day morning and evening and I can say it changed my life. Meditation practice brought so many positive changes that I can’t even imagine how I could live without it! It’s a tool everyone should have in their toolbox, especially now living in such busy times. Apart from the very unique and rewarding experience, I love the social aspect too because through the courses and gatherings I meet so many interesting, funny and kind people that I welcome every opportunity to socialise more. Have you ever tried meditation? I’d like to hear from those of you who are interested, but never meditated, what is stopping you? 🐾 🐦Thinkforliving 🌈thinkingforliving.com (at London, United Kingdom)
