This is one of my favourite green juice recipes. All the ingredients are easily available any time of the year, it has the perfect combination of sweetness with loaded greens which gives a big dose of nutrients any time of the day. I have one of these almost every day, usually for breakfast!

I have no words... this cake is amazing. My friend wanted me to make up a cafe for his cafe so I came up with this recipe and made it at 10pm at night. That did not deter me from sampling the filling at all in any way, after all, cashews are so good for you! That was my excuse anyway. All you need is a good food processor or blender for this. I use a thermomix which does EVERYTHING, so I can't speak for other appliances, but once you have all the ingredients it's a simple matter of combining them together and pressing the on button!
I posted up the dressing for this salad a few days ago, it's amazing with brussels sprouts. This salad is super simple, one main ingredient and that's it! It seems very few people like the taste of brussels sprouts, I think this has a lot to do with how it's prepared, most people seem to steam them and that's it, which isn't the most appetizing, any I think any child growing up being made to eat it that bland probably won't be a big fan. However when they are prepared well, they are delicious and it's great vegetable to include into the diet due to all the amazing health benefits.
This for me pretty much sums it up. Here's a short article highlighting the benefits of Bikram yoga. It truly works you on every level: physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. All you have to do, is step in the room.
Mustard is very versatile and can be used in many different way, especially for salad dressings. I had a hankering for a brussels sprouts salad so I made up some sweet mustard dressing to go with it. The poppyseeds gives it a nice crunch and the sweetness offsets the tangyness. I'll post up the link to the salad in a couple of days so make sure you check back for it!
Mustard powder is finely grounded mustard seeds, and mixed with water is very flavoursome, with the added boost of containing medicinal properties. It contains high levels of phytonutrients, especially glucosinolates, which have been found to have a protective effect against certain types of cancer. This spice also contains a wide variety of minerals such as iron, zinc, calcium and magnesium. They are also packed with B complex vitamins, boosting the metabolism. Josh & the 60 Day Sweat from mitchellpalmer on Vimeo. I have only ever done a 30 day Bikram yoga challenge in the 4 years I have been practicing. One class a day, for 30 consecutive days. I have practiced 2 in one day, 3 in one day, at training we practiced 11 classes a week, but it's really hard to commit to one class a day, every single day. Around the 2 week mark I always need a day off. So this video was really inspiration for me, to commit and just for it. Ask Bikram says: Give me 30 days and I will change your body. Give me 60 days and I will change your life. When are you ready to change your life? “There are only two days in the year that nothing can be done.
One is called yesterday and the other is called tomorrow. So today is the right day to love, believe, do and mostly live”. - Dalai Lama |
"I am not what happened to me,
I am what I choose to become" Carl Gustave Jung I'm Binny, a full time Bikram Yoga teacher and studio owner that lives in Perth, Australia.
I started this blog to share the things I love the best in the world: being healthy and happy, food (especially raw), yoga, traveling and most importantly, learning how to love and be true to myself. I suffered from severe digestive problems when I was younger, being gluten and lactose intolerant, and developed compartment syndrome and fibromyalgia in my teens. I have lived with constant pain for over 16 years now. Over the past 10 years, I've shifted to a mainly plant based diet and realised that being well and healthy is a way of life. I have been teaching Bikram yoga since 2011, in the US and Australia. Due to my health issues I've also had a lot of bodywork done as well as explored alternative therapies. I've become much more aware of myself as a result of all this - physically, mentally, spiritually and emotionally. Right now I love my life. In my career I love what I do and I do what I love. I have traveled to some amazing places around the world and made lifelong friends. In between working and traveling, I cook up a storm in the kitchen, especially raw desserts, spend time with the people I love the best, which now includes a yoga husband, a mini yogini Estell, and our dog! I try to listen to my body the best I can. I truly believe that we all have the power and the capabilities to heal our own bodies, to nourish the spirit and seek our own happiness and life's purpose.
