By Dublin, Humour, Meditation, Mindfulness, Motivational, Teachers, Vegan, Wellbeing, Yoga, YogaHub

  Itā€™s currently raining in Dharamkot, Himachal Pradesh, one of the Northernmost populated towns in the Indian Himalayas. Meanwhile, I hear that itā€™s been 26 degrees in Ireland. Typical! Monsoon season here is in full swing, and as irritating as a downpour can be in the midst of exploring new towns and places, the people that you meet when huddled together with a street of strangers under a bright blue tarpaulin to shelter from the rain often make it seem…

Vegan Banana and Walnut Breakfast Muffins

By Dublin, Food, HappyFood, Healthy, Jenny O'Neill, Recipes, Vegan, Wellbeing

Not to mention they are packed with fibre, potassium from both the bananas and walnuts. Along…
