I remember the first time I drove past a pineapple field. I was in Maui with my boyfriend at the time (we are talking 15 years ago now) and I was like 'OMG I thought pineapples grew on trees'. He said, well you'd be surprised, most he's met actually people do. Hahaha! There is a longing [...]
This post is all about the importance of loving yourself (and to celebrate I am making a cup of homemade herbal 'love yourself beautiful' tea and sharing the recipe below). Personally, I find it much easier to be there for other people, to love others, than to love myself. I imagine it is the same [...]

Energetically speaking, when it comes to chai (tea), there's nothing quite like making your own! I am not JUST making a cup of chai. To me it is a spiritual adventure. As I am sure you know, spirituality is in everything. It's in the way I feel connected with each spice; feeling the energy inspire [...]
Every morsel we eat plays a role on our spiritual journey. The energy of our food becomes a part of our being, it goes soul deep - flooding into our cells; directly impacting our vibration by either lowering or raising it (depending on what we choose to consume). We are spiritual beings in physical, human [...]
Let's talk about Masala Chai! Chai actual means tea. Masala means spices. Easy. People adore the fragrant, soul-nurturing infusion of a good chai that permeates to the core. It can warm you up in the depths of winter, keeping you bright in the summer. It ensures that your mind stays sharp whilst imparting a relaxed [...]
So, I fell down some steps nearly a week ago. It was a sort of pitch black moment of distraction. I completely missed the last step, doubling over on my foot, giving it a very nasty twist. Oh my goodness, did I ever fall! The pain was so excruciating I was very close to blacking [...]
