Rebounder

Loving my rebounder. I rebound 3-4 times per week for 20 minutes. I feel my cells and blood jumping around. Working up a good sweat, an exhilirating, tingling feeling. Raising my arms, cleaning the lymphs.

Also, enjoying my Fall Juice (recipe is in previous entry). Nourishing, cleansing, immune support and really delicious.

Wishing you a lymphatically clean day!

Fall Juice

My blood is craving something more earthy. This power juice is the right thing for me now in autumn. The color is beautiful and the flavor is perfect!

3 celery stalks
4 carrots
handful of parsley
1 apple
1 medium beet
4 leaves of chard
1/2 lemon
piece of ginger
small garlic clove

Today is My Birthday, Happy Birthday to Me!

Today I celebrate my birthday with a new juice which is so delicious. Before drinking the juice I spent 20 minutes on the rebounder. I rebound 3-4 times a week. Dan has a great demo and explains it so well.

Juice together kale, celery, parsley.
In VitaMix or strong blender place coconut water and coconut meat of two coconuts. If one has lots of water and lots of meat, it might be enough. I needed two.
Then add the green juice and one or two bananas.
D E L I C I O U S!
A super Happy Birthday drink!

Birthday dinner will be at my favorite restaurant, Pure Food & Wine in NYC.

Coconut Water, Youtube and Knitting

Spending 2 weeks in Bahia, Brazil......relaxing and soaking up some nice weather.
Today is a complete restful day.
Took a nap to the sound of the ocean, which was so needed.
Eating super light.
Had green tea earlier.
Beautiful, sweet watermelon, several times during the day.
Pitcherful of coconut water. Absolutely hydrating, feeling my cells drinking it up.
I might have a salad later, or some fruit.
Will take this opportunity to eat incredible fruits, will energize and detox this body.
Catching up with healthy youtube videos of Dan McDonald. Love his spirit, honesty and inspiration.
Oh and loving my knitting.
My gratitude for a blissful day!

Flax Pumpkin Sunflower Caraway Crackers

I love caraway seeds, so this cracker is awesome.
Always enjoy a few with my salad.
Super easy to make.
I make 5 trays of it and it lasts a while.

Here is the basic how to flax cracker recipe that I made not too long ago.
In this one I added:
flax
pumpkin seeds
sunflower seeds
caraway (did not soak)
salt
cayenne
cumin

Afternoon pick-me-up juice

Having some energy and chiropractic work done on me. Releasing, opening up. Change of season is a good time for me to go through this. Being more aware, extra mindful, the layers are sliding off. I especially needed this afternoon pick-me-up juice. The early green smoothie was sucked up into my system. I feel this juice going through my blood system. Healing, invigorating and calming.


4 carrots
kale stems (from yesterday's kale salad)
big handful of parsley
3 celery stalks
1 cucumber
1 pear

Easy & simple

It's been a great hot summer here in New York. Keeping it simple is good.
Here are two items I have been repeating and enjoying.

1.Cut up peaches with sprinkled propolis.
With delicious, aromatic peaches and energizing propolis....yum.

2. Piece of lemon, piece of jalapeno (growing in my herb garden) to your liking and a squirt of agave into iced water, let it sit a bit. Refreshing.
I like the tingling on my tongue from the spicy pepper.

Hope your summer is healthy and easy.
