Recipe Time!

Inspired by the BBCtv programme 'Grow your own Drugs'(Great programme, great format:) here are some tried and tested 'au naturale' recipes for all you lovely people out there.

*Gram flour mixed to a paste with Organic Cold-Pressed(not toasted) Sesame makes a effective great body and facial scrub.

*Pure Coconut oil makes a superb moisturiser and intensive pre-conditioning hair treatment(For a lingering scent add a few drops of essential oil).

*Dehydrated skin loves honey(Natural Yogurt and honey makes a great face mask, leave for 10 minutes and rinse)!

* Invest in a body brush(prior to bathing) and you'll be glad you did(a tongue scraper and re bounder AKA a mini trampoline is a wise investment to:). Both stimulate the lymphatic system, thus aids detoxification.

Namaste:)

Nature's Bounty / Beauty

I've had the most Divine and sublime natural concoction that can sustain all of life guaranteed(Humans and Primates alike:). It consisted of simple leafy greens( ie spinach / kale / Pak Choi etc.), frozen bananas and yummy avocado. Just think If all children had access to nature's bounty we all would be all living in paradise for sure(Now that would make me smile:). We would be more creative and resourceful(Not wasteful) too.

*Spinach
*Frozen Bananaas
*Avacado(ripe)

I feel blessed:)

Be The Change You Want To see In the World........

Probably, my favourite quote ever by the great man himself. I can't not really fathom men passing judgement on fellow men without taking a look within and besides there's only one judge(The Creator:). For this reason alone I wish Jade and Jack every happiness in the world(I'm praying you will survive this cruel diesease to see your sons into adulthood) today and everyday.

One World One People For Peace

As I approach a another milestone birthday I've been in a some what reflective mood. It got me thinking am I the only individual that truly cares about the conservation and preservation of the natural wonders(resources etc.)of the world? I'm some what despondent with irresponsible human behaviour(I though we were an intelligent species) polluting our beautiful planet left, right and centre(It's hardly setting an example for future generations now is it?).I personally would like future generations(we all have sons, daughters, nephews and nieces etc.what kind of legacy are we leaving?)to experience the beauty of the natural world hence I have no intention of falling into that trap of complacency, apathy and malaise. Time for action and be the change we want to see in the world.With an ever increasing dependency on non-essential air-travel,fossil fuels and mass produced material goods I am deeply concerned(finally It's making headlines but at a huge cost).Time to take responsibility for our actions perhaps?If you feel the same way let's get together and heal the world soon!

Strangers are friends you've yet to meet....

.... So I keep telling myself!

Wasted memories / opportunities, so little time and still no camera.

Just for today(3 Blessings to be grateful for:)

*TREES are for life not just for Christmas!

*H2O are overall makeup

*FRESH FRUIT

How blessed am I ?!!!

Consumed by greed

Our Natural World is changing at an alarming speed and a huge cost to us all. The Global landscape is frying, Indigenous primeval Traditional cultural beliefs are on the verge of being wiped out; all for our insatiable appetite for hamburgers and steaks. Acres and acres of natural beauty ie forests are unnaturally and unnecessarily being destroyed for soy bean production(animal fodder). Given that the burning of the Rainforest is wholly responsible for one fifth of all carbon emissions(more than planes and automobiles combined) it doesn't take much to work out this is a disaster on a global scale(Rainforest's absorb retain heat-trapping CO2 whilst giving us valuable O2). Not to mention flora and fauna and precious Ecosystems completely destroyed. More soy production simply means more toxic chemicals in the river and an increased pressure on the forests. For local people the river is a valuable primeval resource for food, traditional beliefs and soul-searching. These sensitive people live totally in harmony with Mother Earth / nature, consciously conserving resources without polluting it. What are we doing? Is this a legacy we want to leave?
