Why I’m turning to Ayurveda
Well, I’ve always said healing gut health is a journey. And recently I took another step on the long and winding road by starting to work with an Ayurvedic doctor.
Gut health
Peanut brownie biscuits
This grain-free cookie recipe sneaks in a dose of grass-fed gelatin, which can help to repair damaged gut linings. How’s that for a guilt-free treat?
Roasted beet and cauliflower salad
This salad is best served fresh from the oven. Feel free to rotate the roast veggies with whatever is in season.
Probiotic raita
Raita is perfect for dolloping over a curry or Middle Eastern dish, or using as a dip with your favourite veggie sticks.
Good-for-your-gut jam
This (refined) sugar-free jam offers a good dose of essential omega 3 fatty acids.
The power of Rest(orative Yoga)
Conscious relaxation puts our bodies into rest-and-digest mode. Which is invaluable for much more than just your gut.
Sauerkraut
Known to many as the holy grail of fermented foods, sauerkraut can be made simple.
I feel so much better. Now what?
My symptoms have stabilized month upon month, and I’m now at a point where I have to wonder: what is my new normal?
Why healing can be harder than being sick
The road to overcoming a chronic condition can be much longer than anticipated.
