Gym Rats & Bookworms.... inspired by Alexandra Franzen.... & Turkish coffee blurt

Yes, yes. My favourite feed.

We get fed in many ways. Well, maybe it's just that I get fed in many ways.

Just back from Turkey. Man that is some fine, smooth, flavoursome food on offer. Loved IT.

I didn't like the taste of the coffee though. However I loved the process of making it. I've adopted it and created a new ritual.

Tip.

Use everything that you love in your life to create rituals to keep you fed. See how Alexandra Franzen uses books to keep fit so that she can feed herself.

The tip.
You may not be able to do EVERYTHING that you admire, but it probably precedes some change for you.
The itch and the scratch.

Number 6 ... YEOW! I can feel it already!

Feed your soul.

My personal favourite would be to have the food table as the sacred space. IKEA have brilliant fabrics to make tablecloths from.

1. Define the Purpose of Your Relationship
2. Discover Your Natural Sexual Essence
3. Practice Offering Your Essence as a Gift
4. Relax
5. Breathe
6. Use Eye Contact to Open
7. Connect Heart to Heart
8. Expand Your Repertoire
9. Be Adventurous
10. Create a Sacred Space

Tip.

As my year 10 science teacher said, "Read widely. And read some more."

You never know where your most beneficial influences are going to come from.

Industrial strength

Dennis from Blue Steel Agencies is a whizz.

This pic is not very flattering, but I couldn't resist. It is stainless steel made in one unit - benchtop, sink, and splash backs. Beautiful.

I can't wait to prep food like this on it!

YOUR TURN

Go and write your shopping list:

1. Ready to eat avocado (Press the pointy end ever so slightly. It should feel softish).
2. Red capsicum.
3. English spinach leaves.
4. Tuna slices in oil with chilli, drained and chilli flicked out (Aldi's brand is tasty).
5. Lemon to squeeze half of over the plate of food as a tangy dressing.
6. Sea salt, freshly ground, lightly sprinkled, optional.

*You've got all bases covered in this simple feed - protein, unprocessed carbohydrates from vegetables, essential fatty acids from avocado.

Tip.

Food is much more complex than 'just protein' etc, but this is one way to make every meal a good feed.

Tip.

JUST WATCH IT!

"THE INDUSTRY DOESN'T WANT YOU TO KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE EATING, BECAUSE IF YOU KNEW, YOU WOULDN'T WANT TO EAT IT"

Grow your own

A baby pineapple.

Grow your own right now.

Twist the green top knot off the pineapple, let it dry out for 3 days in the shade, and then twist it into the soil in a sunny spot in your garden.

Now be patient! In a year or so you will be rewarded with a beautiful baby pineapple.

Sustainable

You, me, the built environment, the natural environment. Entwined.

If you took this photo, please let me know so I can acknowledge you.

Go and be 'with yourself' in the natural environment. Walk in it. Lie in it. Breathe it in.
