Haloumi and Lentil Salad

Haloumi and Lentil Salad
This lentil salad is so super easy to make and perfect for a quick and easy lunch or dinner (especially after a late yoga class). The lentils provide the dish with tonnes of non-animal protein and are high in fibre - meaning that you'll still full and satisfied for longer post meal. Both canned lentils and beets are fantastic to keep in the cupboard for easy meals and the salad ingredients can be altered according to what is in season. The haloumi adds a little something special, but for vegans and dairy free diets can easily be left off or substituted for vegetarian burgers or sausages, or even grilled tempeh (yum!).

The Poses aren't as Important as you Think

22/6/2014

Wheel Pose Beach
The history of yoga is a little unclear. Unfortunately its beginning pre-dates Instagram, so it’s a little tricky to figure out when the first pose was invented… Scholars have found pre-philosophical speculations of yoga emerging in the texts of c. 500–200 BCE. Between 200 BCE–500 CE a coherent philosophical system of yoga began to emerge, but as with any form of spiritual practice it has continued to evolve and change up until the present day.

Berry and Pistachio Quinoa Porridge
Serves 2

Time 7 minutes
Quinoa flakes are a great alternative to traditional oats -they are gluten free and suitable for those with coeliac disease. Quinoa is known as the “mother of all grains” and is high in protein, magnesium and manganese. Paired with berries, almond milk and nuts, this is the perfect start to any winters morning and a great pre-or-post yoga meal!

Elephant Journal
So you’re interested in giving yoga a try. You’ve seen all the pictures of bendy girls on the internet, you’ve heard that Jennifer Anniston and Hugh Jackman swear by it, you know it’s great for staying in shape, improving your athletic performance and rehabilitating from injuries, so what’s not to love? If you’re thinking of taking the big brave plunge (it takes guts!) here’s our top 5 things that no one tells you that might be handy to keep in the front of your mind:

Why 3 deep breaths can change your life

6/6/2014

Beach Yoga
When I first started practicing yoga nearly 15 years ago I don’t think my teacher even mentioned breathing, and if they did, I was too busy trying to pretzel myself into the next pose (that I wasn’t quite ready for), to hear it. I had no idea that yoga poses (asana) were only 1/8th of what I needed to be doing, and I certainly didn’t view yoga as a spiritual practice. It was all flexibility, strength, balance and toning – no different from a spin class or body pump class, and certainly no more influential in my life outside of the gym.
