I can highly recommend the Corporate Seminar on a wholefood plant based diet! The seminar I booked for my team was held online so everyone could join and it was still a great team building event and very interactive despite it being not in person. The material was not only explained in a simple way but also shared in writing afterwards with additional videos and support to help get people started on making a change in their daily diet and in their approach on how they see food, namely as the main factor to their health which was a very empowering message.    There were many eye-open ..read more

Since the global pandemic many have realised that not only has the world changed, but along with that millions of people have been awakened to the devastation of an animal based diet in more ways than one. One of the world's top restaurants, Eleven Madison Park in New York will re-open next month as a fully vegan restaurant. It is becoming ever clearer that the current food system is simply not sustainable in so many ways. Even though more scientists are sounding the alarm, no leaders in any of the world's most powerful governments are properly heeding their warning. Many thousands of&nbs ..read more

I adore teaching TCM and the 5 elements... In Spring my yoga classes are based on liver/gallbladder meridian stretches. As green is the colour for this element, steamed or fresh greens are on our plates daily. Today's delicious greens with the vinaigrette dressing is quick and easy, try the recipe below.   I just finished teaching this side dish online as part of the spring menu.

Tahini Sauce for Salads, Vegetables and Wraps

I am currently working my way through some delicious dressings and as always, inspired by what nature offers us. The simple creations that I am teaching our students shine on so many levels. Such versatility with robust flavours are quite frankly loved by all.  Tahini paste is made from crushed sesame seeds and has quite a nutty taste. It is available in jars from regular supermarkets. There are two main types of tahini, hulled and unhulled.  Hulled tahini does not grind the whole sesame seed and because of this it does not contain as much calcium, protein and vitamins as unhulled. U ..read more

Spring Salad with Zesty Lemon Dressing

Spring for me is the most beautiful time of year. I adore watching the beautiful snowdrops peep through in early February. There used to be many lovely gardens on my walk to school, and I am sure the neighbours did not begrudge me a few wee snowdrops to press into my beloved schoolbooks. Then the crocuses would shoot up with the most beautiful vibrant yellows, purples, and white and blues that filled my world with colour. When you are a child, everything seems so big and awesome, and for me the daffodils around Easter time were the crème de la crème. Big, beautiful, bright ..read more
