During my time travelling in South East Asia last year, I spent some time in Vietnam. The people, the country itself and the food were amazing! Since I’ve been back I’ve been craving some Vietnamese cuisine, specifically rice rolls, with a sweet peanut dipping sauce. I headed to the Asian market and picked up rice paper and rice vermicelli. The rest of the ingredients were things I had at home anyway! My recipe for these is both gluten free and…
There are many points of focus we use in yoga to help hone our practice. When we begin a class, we focus on an intention. When we centre ourselves, we focus on the breath. When we do an asana, we focus the eyes on one point called the drishti. All of these points help us concentrate so that we can allow thoughts to settle. A mantra is another tool that we use to focus. A mantra is a sound or…

So dairy seems to be the hardest thing for people to ‘give up’ when they want to eat a plant based, vegan diet. Cheese is undoubtedly addictive, even I will admit that as a vegetarian in my early teens I ate so much cheese, before I understood how bad it is for our bodies and for the environment, and especially for the cows it comes from. When I transitioned to a vegan diet I cut cheese out completely, no vegan…
When we visited the beautiful people over at Youth Nation yesterday to see where we’re at with YogaHub and HappyFood‘s social media and stuff they told us that our ‘marketing’, along with everyone elses’, should be all about storytelling.

What’s so valuable to realise here is that most of what’s going on inside our heads…

Sunday’s are my day off, well they’re meant to be but with the end of the college year looming and dissertations etc to do they have become a 12 hour shift at my laptop type of day. My brain starts to go fuzzy after 2 or 3 hours and then I am forced to get up from my work and go and cook something. Sunday’s are about brunch/lunch and more me it’s got to be filling. Also I’m in a…
After another amazing activity filled weekend of the 200hr teacher training course at YogaHub, there are many things I could write about. On reflection, the most powerful of all activities that took place over the course of the weekend was my first experience of an “Osho Active Meditation” technique with Casey. Before I delve into the experience of the meditation itself, I must first outline a bit about the background of the man behind the practice. Who is Osho? Osho…
