When I was training to be a yoga teacher, one of the 6 purification techniques taught to us was Jala Neti ( also called Neti or Jaaneti). Purification techniques are sometimes performed as a way of preparing the body for a yoga practice. Whenever the neti pots came out, I disappeared, always needing to be somewhere else at that moment in time… I had many techniques to avoid it: the bathroom, the water fountain, the shop, anything but the Net. Pouring a saline solution up my hooter was really not for me and I have avoided it right up to today. I have got a steaming cold and, as a result, I now have sinus pain, so I have decided to give it another go. Talk about waiting until your back is against the wall! I rushed to the Sivanada yoga studio nearby and bought myself a ceramic neti pot and salt. I had to follow the one photographic image as the instructions were in German!!! Although I did not find it as unpleasant as some people describe, it was not as bad as I remembered. So I will us...
Wow - looks delish! I hope you have a great raw day. There's a raw group here that I joined plus a restaurant 105degrees (http://105degrees.com/) where I am going to eat for my birthday tomorrow. Not sure I could go 100% raw, but it is really yummy food and makes me feel wonderful. :)
ReplyDeleteLooks and sounds fabulous!
ReplyDeleteIt was a lovely fresh and varied menu :-)
ReplyDeleteThe food was really good Laura. I would highly recommend Raw Fairies - Especially if like me, you dont always have the time to prepare such varied foods and smoothies.
ReplyDeleteYes, I don't have much time that is why I think I could do 100% raw if I had a chef. Ha! I will check them out - do they deliver to US?
ReplyDeleteOnly delivering in the London area...sorry.
