Enhance your yoga practice – with a plant based food

by Julia K | Mar 30, 2021 | Healthy Living Recipes

Spring is here, and we might even eat less and lighter. Older I get, better food I crave for. With more yoga practice in my life, a full of nutrients food is a priority. I certainly feel stronger physically and mentally. Over the years, I have tried variety of foods (...

First forage of the season 🌱✨ I’ve been coming ba First forage of the season 🌱✨

I’ve been coming back to this young woodland for over four years now, and every spring it feels a little bit different. 

Today I wanted to show you these tiny, tender wild garlic leaves—just two small leaves, still so young and full of life. You can already see the flower forming at the base, but it’ll need another couple of weeks before it opens.

I actually prefer them at this stage—softer, sweeter, and more delicate in flavour. Once they flower, the taste becomes stronger and more mature… still beautiful, just different.

If you get the chance, this is the perfect time to forage wild garlic. 🌱

It’s such an incredible plant to work with—packed with vitamins A and C, iron, antimicrobial properties, and amazing for digestion, heart health, and gentle detoxification after winter.

🌸 Spring is nature’s invitation to lighten up, to add more greens, and reconnect with what our bodies need. Wild garlic is rich in sulfur compounds, so a little goes a long way—you don’t need much to benefit from it.

It’s also so versatile:
• Toss a few leaves into salads
• Stir into soups
• Blend into a fresh pesto (my favourite 🌿)
• Or even freeze it to enjoy later

There’s something truly special about gathering your own food—being in nature, slowing down, and creating something nourishing from what’s already there.

Go out, explore, and enjoy the magic of the season 💚🌱🌳

Reset the Circadian Rhythm ( Sleep/Wake Cycle ) wi Reset the Circadian Rhythm ( Sleep/Wake Cycle ) with 20 mins * Morning Sunlight Walk * ☀️☺️

Morning sunlight is one of the simplest ways to reset your body and mind ☀️

Getting outside within 30–60 minutes of waking (even just a short walk) helps:
✨ wake you up faster and clear brain fog

 ✨ balance your hormones for better energy through the day

 ✨ boost mood by increasing serotonin (your “feel good” chemical)

 ✨ reduce stress and support mental wellbeing

 ✨ improve focus, memory, and 
overall BRAIN 🧠 function

 ✨ set you up for deeper, better sleep at night

You don’t need long — just 20 mins on a sunny day it’s more than enough. Turn the face to the sun. Don’t need the sunglasses or sunscreen. The sun needs to hit the retina. Just enjoy the glow and warmth of the sun. ☀️

With spring around the corner, it’s the perfect time to build this habit 🌿 boost your energy and get your body moving.

Movement. Nature. Connection. 🏔️🚶‍♀️🌳 12 miles wa Movement. Nature. Connection. 🏔️🚶‍♀️🌳

12 miles walked on Saturday with such a wonderful group of people...

This weekend’s long walk was with the @north_beds_ramblers . Fresh air, good conversations, shared miles and plenty of laughter along the way.

I walk most days, but group walks bring something extra special. Moving our bodies outdoors supports our physical health, our mental wellbeing too. Walking clears the mind, lifts the mood and gives the brain space to breathe. 🧠

Community like this is so important — connection, encouragement, and simply showing up for ourselves and each other.

I also host a monthly walk with my yogis and our next one is 
🚶‍♀️Saturday 21st March in Woburn at 9:30am. If you’d like to join us, get in touch and I can add you to the walking WhatsApp group. Everyone is welcome. 🌿

And if you’re someone who loves adventure, hiking and wellbeing…

I have an upcoming —> 
Longevity Hiking & Yoga Retreat in the Tatras
2–9 May 2026. 
It’s going to be an incredible week of mountains, movement, yoga, connection and nature. 

✨There is only 1 space left if you’d like to join us.

Check the link in bio for details or send me a message if you feel called to be part of this upcoming ELEVATE week with us. ✨
