The magical alchemy of turning summer fruit into jam... it’s been a busier than usual summer for me, with so many transitions, but last night i made a small pot of ghee and this morning used up the last of the prune plums to make some jam as my mama taught me, just fruit and organic sugar, a bit of lemon juice and a lot of love. The entire process is meditative and there is nothing so sweet as tasting the fruits of your labors :)... lion agreed as he wolfed down his toast and still warm runny jam from the pot. I hope to save it until the fall but in this fam it may not even make it to next week ✨❤️ Ps. May we all enjoy the fruits of our labors this long wknd xo #momlife #yogue #modernayurveda #insiyayoga #laborday2019 #blissedandblessed #preserves #jam #frenchjam #cookingfromscratch #wholefoods #organicfoods #maker #creativelife

Rock, tree, soil, earth, water and the caress of clean air. What need have we for human built temples? - as beautiful as we make them... - when mama nature offers us her sacred groves into which we bow... ✨✨✨ I am so grateful for some grounding amidst the pacific northwest’s lushness today w the fam. A pause of wholeness this busy week. @blissology #grateful #yogateacherlife #breathe #exhale #earthing #yoganature #yogainnature #blissedandblessed #blissology #yogue #nature #forestbathing #cascadia #pnw #yogagirl #yogamama

Sometimes a journey takes a long long time... and you have to work so hard to stay connected to the uncertainties of life so that you don’t feel unstable and ungrounded and anxious... Our family has been on a journey to find a place to call home for a few years now. We have visited so many stunning places around the planet and I know our heart is in so many of them... but I’m so so happy to share that we did find a home in beautiful Victoria, bc on vancouver island. It’s a little 50s bungalow and yes it needs work so my new few months may involve a lot of design decisions and budgeting and figuring out how to make this a space that we find peace calm and bliss. And to do it in an ecologically sensitive and minimalist and yes a stylish :) way! A space from which we can spread what @blissology and I do w joy and certainty. It’s been quite a wknd, we’ve measured cabinets and walls; connected w old and new friends, signed #lifi up at a new school and met some of our soon to be neighbours and taken in some of the glorious nature here. Swipe right to see more and I can’t wait to share our journey in this new place we will call home soon!!! ❤️❤️❤️✨✨✨ #home #groundingthevata #simpleliving #blissedandblessed #insiyayoga #victoria #ecolife #homerenos #lifestyleblogger #breathe #loveourlife #exhale

Conversation this morning, “mom we have to make organic lemonade for our lemonade stand, how can you even think about making the other kind. You’re the one who always makes us eat organic.” Point taken. So we bought only organic ingredients for his summer endeavor His first ever lemonade stand that he ran with his bestie from school :). We spent the morning hand squeezing lemons, making simple syrup w organic sugar and then finally got out to set up the stand just in time for the sunshine to come out! the boys decorated their signs and set up, and we parents stood behind just ready to help if the glass jars were too heavy. Our competition was lemonade just up the road for $1 and people looked a little askance at our guys selling their glasses for $3 / cup. But they told their “customers” how they hand squeezed the lemons for 2 hours (w some help from their moms) and how they used only organic ingredients and how good it was. And people bought their lemonade and soon called friends. And then there was a cluster of people and many happy smiles. And the boys stood tirelessly in the sun and hawked their wares :) and sold out by the aft. And I was a proud mama, proud for their organization, for their commitment to using organic ingredients, for being determined and confident in sharing the whys behind what made it so good and for their chalk signs and other marketing signage :) I grew up in India where lemonade stands are not something kids do so this was a treat for me too!!! Next time I will ask him to donate some profits to a non profit of his choice but for this first one I think I may let him buy a toy w the profits he split w his friend :) Ps. Math got fun too w all the change counting!!! #yogamama #summer #creativekids #lemonadestand #vancity #organickids #yogue #blissedandblessed #nextgen #consciouscapitalistkids #organic #eatorganic
