Today I was looking through some photos on my laptop when I came across some 'progress shots' I took at the beginning of 2015. My first thought was Holy Moly I was fit!! My second thought was Jeez I'd better get back to the hot room. My third thought was right, I'm going to bed now and getting up early to go for a...

This Easter I've been over indulging on hot crossed buns... seriously. And it's getting a bit expensive and probably not that healthy! So I decided to give making my own a go. It's pretty simple, you just need to allow some time for the dough to rise but definitely worth it! The only down side is that they won't last long before they're...

This is powerful stuff, well worth a watch! What is vegan? Why am I vegan? What are the benefits of being vegan? All questions answered... 'My goal is simple. All I want to do is re-connect people with animals. Awaken some emotions and some feelings and some logic, that is been buried and suppressed, intentionally, by our society.' 'Good people don't talk about kindness,...

When we backbend, we stretch through our spine and open our chests. For some people this comes easily, for others it doesn't. For me it's a bit of both. My back... bends, and that happened through discipline and practise, but my chest has a hard time keeping up. I'm not sure if it's a recent thing - I always thought the two worked...

For a few years now I’ve had a regular home practice. I’ve tried out different types of yoga, done the beginner passes at a heap of different schools and had bursts of enthusiasm for different focuses and styles. Somehow I have never managed to stick to one school. I wouldn’t say that it’s a bad thing; I’ve had many teachers pass on their...

We are all so conscious of the time we spend, but we often don't think about the energy we spend. What if energy was the same as time?  In the same way we only have so many hours in a day, I believe we have a certain amount of energy. Not the kind you can give a boost with food; an emotional, spiritual energy. How...

Last week I was lucky enough to attend the launch of Finders Keepers The Label's new active wear, Finders Keepers XFIT. As a lover of fashion as well as fitness, I was super excited about the release of FKXFIT. Having purchased some of the early release pieces, I found the sets perfect for hot vinyasa and a comfy (but stylish) yoga class must-have....

Pasta making was once an activity I regularly enjoyed with friends, but it's been a long time. I have since changed my lifestyle and found that a diet with a lot of animal products is not for me, but I assure you it doesn't mean missing out on the good things! Although the pasta I always made had egg, it is actually very normal for it...

New Year is an opportunity to reflect, to look back on the things you've learned, the things you've grown enough to let go of and the things you're still working on. As I reflected on the year that has been, I realised how easily we forget. We forget to give ourselves credit for all that we have done in the last 365 days,...
