Wellness. Yoga. Real Life
The holiday season is upon us and I couldn’t be more excited! I love Christmas and everything that comes along with it (including the stress of shopping and wrapping gifts and hosting dinner). It’s such a mad rush and the days go by so quickly this time of year. It’s so easy to just get [...]
Christmas is my favourite time of the year. I love everything about it. I even love the cold and snow! One of my favourite Christmas drinks is eggnog, but one glass I'm beyond full! So I set out looking for a vegan eggnog recipe that came as close to the real thing as possible. I [...]
It's that time of year again, pumpkin spice is taking over everything! I'm actually really excited about it. I love pumpkins, sweater weather and just about everything to do with autumn (not to mention it means that Christmas is just around the corner!) I admit to being a former lover of the infamous PSL, but [...]
I don't own a juicer, but that doesn't mean I can't have fresh green juice anytime I want! Making green juice in a blender is really easy (it just requires an extra step - straining through a nut-milk or jam making bag to separate the pulp from the liquid). I make a batch of this [...]

I only recently started making my own almond butter, but it has been a total game changer for me. I found that store-bought almond butters were SUPER expensive, and because I only ever used a small amount at a time, I always had that hard paste-like stuff at the bottom of the jar and the [...]
When I first started on this wellness trend, I made my own almond milk every. single. week. I would soak my nuts in the fridge overnight and blend them up the next day. As with anything homemade, you can control what goes in it and there's some questionable ingredients in some of the store-bought variety. [...]
This is one of the first recipes I created when I decided to ditch processed foods and refined sugars. It's still one of my favourites. I make this granola often and always make sure I have some on hand. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. I'm quite proud of this one [...]
Dairy-free milks are coming in hot and fast these days and I like it!! This is my recipe for super easy and delicious hemp milk. It's made with, you guessed it, hemp hearts. Hemp hearts are little powerhouses. They are a complete protein and contain omegas 3 and 6 plus other amazing nutrients like iron, magnesium [...]
