I have recently had the chance to spend a whole weekend practicing Yoga and eating delicious food at Florence House in Sussex. Jean and Mimi's creativity and embodiment were very inspiring and their classes left me totally relaxed, and as if my whole body had been rinsed of fatigue and toxins.
It was a bit like pressing the "reset" button.
It was such a treat to be served food Sybillehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03278813981546492800noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5051707869589262611.post-82816332759288424972013-02-04T05:35:00.000-08:002013-02-04T05:35:28.519-08:00Brownies- Gluten and dairy free
These brownies are inspired by the delicious gluten free, dairy free, "happy kitchen" brownies I bought in London fields a few weeks ago. You can buy them directly from the factory and say hello, it's worth a trip there!
Anyway, I wanted to create something a bit like their brownie, but of course it turned out quite differently.

Caz and I are organising a lovely workshop in Shoreditch, London on Saturday 16th March.
I am very excited about it as it will be about mixing 2 ingredients I love: Yoga and food.

We were on a long day walk the other day when I came up with the idea of making a breakfast/snack bar I could take along with me whenever, wherever. I had made the mistake that morning to not eat any breakfast thinking I wasn't hungry so why should I eat if I am not hungry... I was reminded why a few hours later!
The good thing is that it gave me the idea to make up a recipe for those bars Sybillehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03278813981546492800noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5051707869589262611.post-33792349279572404972013-01-14T08:22:00.000-08:002013-01-14T08:22:37.560-08:00French celeriac "remoulade"- the healthier way

In this beginning of the new year, I feel more than ever the need to create.

Now that we have moved south east London, we have the immense privilege to have a big kitchen! And who says "big kitchen" says "more recipe testings and fun, inventing (or not) new (or old) healthy- delicious- beautiful- simple dishes".

I Love autumn. Yes it could be my favorite season of the year. The colours are so vivid and the air starts to be so crisp it gives me goose bumps! I relate this season to the beginning of going inward again preparing for winter, slowing down, nurturing ourselves. Nature shows us the way as it gets ready to go to sleep until spring.

Hi guys!
So I am back from Bali and before I tell you more about it and some delicious foods and great yoga I had there, I wanted to share this recipe I made this week, with deliciously ripe fresh figs, one of my favorite fruit in the world...
This is a very easy one, raw, so no need to cook and no risk of burning the tin!

A quick idea for your summer lunches, this salad is very easy, deliciously healthy and yummy!
There is no exact recipe for this one as I always improvise around it and want to invite you to do the same. Use any of your favorite summer vegetables, some quinoa, loads of fresh herbs and a simple dressing made with lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper.

I have been enjoying a lot practicing in my living room recently. Meghan Currie has been a great inspiration as to letting go and have fun with your own practice. I sometimes like to take it a bit as a dance, following my breath and just letting my body move how it wants to.

Sorry for the lack of blogs recently, I've been busy setting up my local Yoga classes, teaching, and living! I invite you to "like" my page on Facebook though as I often post quick ideas and pictures that don't appear on this blog. You'll get all the updates of the events coming up too, to see the page click HERE.

This recipe came from a need to eat more protein, and also something filling and grounding. In the winter, I often need to add some grounding cooked food to my salads to feel nourished and warm. This recipe works perfectly for me, and has become a classic at home!
It is quick, cheap, and very healthy. Red lentils are rich in protein and fibber.

Here is to all of you who like something sweet, easy to make, and deliciously healthy!
This dessert/ slice/ square/ tea treat/ after dinner sweet... is inspired by the cooked version I used to make at Divertimenti Cafe, it tastes even better, I dare to say!

So I’ve decided to add some cooked recipes to this blog.
Yes indeed, cooked! This might be controversial…
The thing is I may well be eating mainly raw, I actually do eat a bit of cooked food too. So that would be a lie to say that I don’t, and it would be a shame not to share those beautiful recipes of delicious hearty, healthy, dishes.
