I love this compilation of statements by Russell Brand. He is articulating what a lot of people feel at the moment and sharing his understanding of what is important in life and how yoga, prayer and mediation can help ALL human beings to be just that, "human". I personally love the section on "twerking" and Justin Beiber. As Mr Brand says, who really who gives a S*** about this stuff?

Creamy kale chips, another fabulous recipe from Jiva healing. Visit them at www.jivahealing.com . This recipe is adapted from a recipe from Julie Daniluk, a Canadian nutritionist who specializes in recipes that heal inflammation. They are creamy, cheesy and delicious and packed with nutrients. Ingredients 1 cup cashews, (soaked 2 hours) 1 cup raw sweet potato, chopped or grated 1 medium lemon, juiced 3 Tablespoons nutritional yeast 1/2 tsp grey sea salt or pink rock salt 2 Tablespoons filtered water 10 cups green curly kale, washed, large stems removed, torn into bite size pieces Cooking instructions Blend the first 6 ingredients thoroughly until smooth in a good food processor or Vitamix. Pour over kale and coat the kale. Place kale onto parchment paper and dehydrate for about 6 hours. If you don't own a dehydrator then place them in the oven at 65 C (150F) and dry them for about 1.5 to 2 hours.

A recipe from my friends over at Jiva Healing. These vegan black bean brownies are truly divine. As well as being gluten and dairy free, they are packed full of minerals and fibre.

I love these short clips on anatomy- and how to work with injuries from David Keil. Lotus is a pose many people struggle with especially if they have knee pain or tight hips...David says the glutes muscles are playing a big part too, which is why these stretches should help. Thank you for sharing David Keil ·
