Yoga Homework... will do some today :-)
Green smoothie pre-breakfast. I will have to find time to write my recipes down and get a book together. Green Smoothies are so excellent, taste good and deliver so many live enzymes to the body.
Here's a recipe if you would like to try one:
Green Smoothie recipe
Equipment:
Blender
Cutting board and sharp knife
green leafy veges
Apple or Pineapple Juice
A little water and ice
1 banana
1 apple
-------------
This morning I picked 6 large green leaves (silver beet, or chard)out of the garden, a few stalks of parsley
1 stalk of celery
a couple rocket leaves (mild tasting, not too strong flavour)
a tiny sliver of super hot chilli
-------------
Wash,chop fine (so it's not too much strain on your blender)
Toss everything into blender with a small tray of ice and 1 cup of pineapple juice (vary according to taste)
Blend until there are only tiny green particles visible whizzing around. Takes my very inexpensive blender 2-3 minutes.
That's it. Very quick, easy and packed full of easy to digest nutrition.
Enjoy
What we learnt
* The truth is that much of the yoga being practiced these days doesn't do as much for the parasympathetic nervous system as you might think. To build your parasympathetic nervous system, you need to do poses that encourage deep relaxation, such as forward bends and hip openers; do fewer standing poses; and do more sitting, supine, and prone postures as well as inversions.
