She stood tall in her heels and a fabulous hat, with a wide smile and warm energy filling the room. I don't remember how, but we started talking, and that's when I found about the really cool concept of Mama Glow - a lifestyle website and movement that educates and inspires women about embracing our own radiant energy through a holistic approach to life, during pregnancy and beyond. Latham has empowered such big-name ladies as Alicia Keys and Rebecca Minkoff through their pregnancies. On top of that, Latham is a yoga teacher, a TV personality and a certified nutritionist. When I bumped into Latham at Kris Carr + Gabrielle Bernstein's event, Crazy Sexy Miracles, I knew I had to introduce this amazing lady to you guys... so here it goes! 1. With Mama Glow, you're really changing the way women think about pregnancy. How did this amazing movement come about? Mama Glow the seed was planted during my pregnancy with my son Fulano. The movement was spawned from my being. Mama Glow is a certain radiance that overcomes a woman who is happy, healthy, and feeling fulfilled in her life. I associate the glow with lifestyle choices aligned with wellbeing. Most of all Mama Glow is an attitude, a way of carrying oneself- owning your fierce power and femininity, and embracing the awesomeness of motherhood. I want women to not only feel supported and empowered but mobilized to take healthy action in their lives and make choices aligned with a positive set of beliefs. I wanted to promote green living, I wanted to share a different story about pregnancy and motherhood, one that wasn’t fear based, one that spoke to modern women living in big cities and in suburbs too- addressing all aspects of their self care- in the kitchen, on the mat, and in their lives. Latham with son Fulano (a.k.a. DJ Fulano) Latham with son Fulano (a.k.a. DJ Fulano) 2. What's the most rewarding part of your job? Seeing women nuzzle with their newborn babies after giving birth. I love to see women harness their glow power during pregnancy. I also love that I get to spend lots of time with my son Fulano. 3. What's your best advice for living a wholesome, healthy lifestyle? Show up for your health every day. It's all about loving every aspect of your temple, your queendom. When you are really tapped in to who you are and what you want to offer life- you make choices that are aligned with your highest good. That make you feel most radiant. How can you love yourself today? 4. What's a life changing habit you have? What lights up my cellular activity and gets my soul chirping daily is movement and meditation. I call it part of my glow time practice. My ritual time. 5. What is your favorite book? I have lots of favorite books.

Since most of my followers know me by my heart-shaped bowl (which will be available for purchase on my website soon) the chakra choice was clear… Anahata! This post was originally written for www.dailyjoy.com. As Jackie has previously written, "Anahata (Heart) chakra stands for unhurt, unbeaten and unstruck, in other words, complete BLISS." The heart chakra is related to our ability to love and is a source of compassion. Every chakra has yoga poses, colors, stones, sounds and foods that fuel it. For Heart Chakra, the color is green, which, according to ADailyJoy, contains powerful energies of balance, growth, and life forces. I want to share with you a recipe that will nourish your heart chakra, and balance its vibrations. Responsible for emotions, the heart charka is fueled by greens. I'm already liking this… Hello, kale! Any green vegetables will work, but my favorites are kale and spinach, as they don't take away from the taste of my smoothie bowls. Packed with antioxidants, minerals, plant-based protein, fiber, and healthy fat, this raw, vegan and gluten free smoothie bowl is the perfect way to start your day with an open heart and full of energy.

Here's the back story on Bircher, via My Hungry Monster. "Around 1900 Swiss doctor Maximillian Bircher-Benner had made Bircher Muesli part of a healing therapy treatment for his patients as it's good for digestion (and also gets you some fiber!). Apart from Switzerland, it can also be found on the tables of neighboring European countries such as Germany, Austria, England, and Sweden. " Here's my chocolate twist on Bircher!

This one's pretty special! Enjoy :) blackberry açai avocado smoothie bowl | breakfast criminals My friends used to look at me like I was crazy when they saw me adding spinach, kale and other veggies into my breakfast smoothie bowls. Sweet berries with dark leafy greens? No way. In this smoothie bowl, not only did I mix açai berries and blackberries with spinach, but I threw in avocado as well. And I gotta tell you, this was one of the best smoothies I’ve ever made. (My roommate Patti, who tries all Breakfast Criminals creations, agrees.) Adding dark leafy greens to your smoothies helps you fulfill your daily intake of alkaline. You won’t even know the greens are there—trust me on this one. As for the avocado, small amounts of it add super healthy fats to your smoothies and make them thicker and creamier. And one more tip: I always keep ziplock bags full of spinach, kale, bananas and berries in my freezer. It’s a great way to be healthy smoothie-ready anytime. This recipe is inspired by my friend Katie Dalebout of The Wellness Wonderland. BLACKBERRY AÇAI AVOCADO SMOOTHIE BOWL vegetarian, soy-free, no sugar added Blend: 2 unsweetened açai smoothie packs (I used Sambazon unsweetened açaí packs) ½ cup blackberries and blueberries (fresh or frozen) 1 ripe banana 2 handfuls spinach ½ avocado 1 tsp cinnamon 1 tsp baobab (African plant; check your health food store) 1 tsp mesquite (South American plant; a natural sweetener that smells like heaven; check your health food store) Top: 1 tbs hemp hearts 1 tbs chia seeds 1 tsp bee pollen (optional) Fresh berries Pecans Nutrients: This smoothie bowl is full of vitamin C, plant protein, fiber, antioxidants, calcium, iron, lysine, manganese, zinc and potassium.

A yogini, photographer, fellow foodie and former ballerina, she has that inner glow that can't be hidden. In this interview, she opened the secret behind her famous handstands, shared about her yoga lifestyle, and told us what her favorite breakfast is. 1. How did you get into yoga? My first encounter with yoga was around the age of 9, give or take. My mom had just gotten into yoga and bought a Rodney Yee Yoga VHS tape to keep up with her practice while she travelled, but it was my step dad who I used to watch. I was intrigued. He was stiff, suffered from back injuries, had to use props, and didn't flow like the man in the tape did. It didn't even seem like he was comfortable half of the time he was practicing, but he was persistent. Something kept him coming back to his mat almost every day. I dabbled in and out of it when I got older, but I wasn't hooked. Yoga just felt like another workout. Fast forward several years to my junior year in university, and I stumbled upon a yoga video by Equinox, featuring Briohny Kate Smyth. The postures she did were incredible, and not because they were advanced, but because of the way she moved. It was an effortless dance. Having a background in ballet and an appreciation for the art of movement, I was in love. I took yoga for credit at my university, attended all the classes I could at my school gym, and was in search of all the free yoga classes I could find elsewhere. I would get my fix by attending Lululemon’s complimentary classes. That's how I met Leslie Glickman, who would become my future teacher. The funny thing about my teacher, Leslie, is that her first teacher she trained with was Rodney Yee... yoga works. lamise yoga 2. What is your favorite thing about yoga? It's tough to choose just one thing, so I will leave you with this. It is all encompassing. Yoga literally means union, and I can use it every second of the day. When I am breathing, really taking mindful, deep breaths, I am doing yoga. When I choose not to react to a situation, but to observe instead, I am doing yoga. When I choose non-harming thoughts, words, and actions, I am doing yoga. When I let go of judgments and choose acceptance, I am doing yoga. Yoga is infinite, it lies within us all, and that's a beautiful thing. 3. You spread the love of yoga by teaching. Is there a moment that is the most memorable for you? Oh yes, the first class I ever taught. It was actually my final exam of yoga teacher training and I had to give an hour long class to a room of fellow trainees who had already taken 4 hours of yoga that day. I was the last to teach. I fought back tears all day knowing what lay before me (and keep in mind that up until then I was a VERY shy person). I just couldn't fathom how I would manage to remember my sequence without peeking at my cheat sheet, and project my soft voice to over-practied, tired students, all while seeming calm, cool, and collected. I was mortified. When my turn came, I ran to the bathroom, cried, then washed my face, walked back into the studio, and God took over. The words came out of my mouth, but I didn't even have to think about them. It was effortless. I will never forget that day, my teacher put me on the substitute list right then and ever since, I have been teaching every day and I am forever grateful to share the healing power of yoga. lamise yoga 4. Your upside down balance is incredible. I'm working on getting away from the wall in my handstand, any tips? Ahhh, handstands. I myself am still on the quest to master this posture! The best advice I can give on getting away from the wall, is to get away from the wall! It can be scary at first, but when we have the comfort of the wall behind us, we will always fall short of what we are really capable of achieving. We fall into habits of poor posture (banana backs) and kicking ourselves up into it because it is easier than using core strength. Go outside, somewhere that is a little softer where you will feel ok falling, grass, sand, your yoga mat. Know how to fall out of it, I like to twist out on my hands like you would in a cartwheel, and don't be afraid to fall! Once you can break past the fear of falling, you will find great liberation. Also, consistent practice is key. Just like anything in life, you must put in the work, and trust me, yoga works but only if you do the work. Last of all, have fun with it! It is good to have goals, but don't beat yourself up over it if it doesn't happen overnight because it's not supposed to. lamise mansur yoga 5. Your followers are always curious about your background. What is it? I am a Lebanese, Palestinian, Brazilian, first generation American. :) 6. You not only take gorgeous pictures, but also make breathtaking videos! Do you have any other hidden talents? Thank you! Photography was my passion (and still is) before yoga, and videography is starting to become another. Cooking would be it! I am blessed to have been raised by my mother who I unwillingly had to help in the kitchen. I see this as a blessing in disguise, as I now love to cook and really enjoy learning about nutrition and applying it to making delicious and healthy meals. I am a total foodie! It gives me great pleasure to know that I am nourishing my body with healthy foods made from the heart. 7. What is your message to everyone who will read this? My message to everyone who will read this is simple, have only love in your heart, unconditional love. The more you can learn to love yourself through the good and the bad, the more you are able to see the good in others and love them, and that is yoga. lamise yoga 8. What does your favorite breakfast look like? It looks like a grand-slam from i-Hop, only healthier... haha I am slowly egging myself away from all animal products, but I am not vegan yet, so my favorite breakfast would be fresh fruit on top of a stack of pancakes, with a side of scrambled eggs and a cup of tea. Recipe from Lamise: Chocolate Chia Pudding Lamise's banana-blueberry sandwiching chocolate chia pudding Lamise's banana-blueberry sandwiching chocolate chia pudding Cinnamon, 1 tbsp Raw honey, 1 tbsp Stir in a half cup or so of hot water Add 2 tbsp of chia seeds (if you don't have coconut flour to use then double the amount of chia seeds here) Stir and let the seeds absorb some of the liquid Stir in 2 tbsp of unsweetened raw cacao powder. This is very important because most chocolate powders are not cacao, the original state of chocolate, and are processed with unnecessary things added in them therefore lacking all the amazing antioxidants and health benefits Stir in 1 tbsp of coconut flour, which will absorb the remaining liquid, this is where you go by your own judgement, adding more or less depending on how thick/liquidy you would like the pudding to be. You could also use raw rolled oats here instead or simply use more chia seeds. Mix it all well until you get your desired consistency Wash, chop, and throw in what ever fresh fruit you have, nuts like almonds are also a good Last and most important part of the recipe is to sit down, give thanks, and enjoy every bite. Have fun with it, this recipe is very versatile! Make sure to tag #lovelyandhealthy if you give it a try! - [Wildly Inspiring: Interview with Katrin and Julie Selmer, Founders of The Raw Food Sisters ](https://www.breakfastcriminals.com/people-we-admire-the-raw-food-sisters/) - The Raw Food Sisters: Katrin & Julie The Raw Food Sisters: Katrin & Julie Katrin and Julie, a.k.a. The Raw Food Sisters, are brightly shining stars in the Instagram community (follow them @therawfoodsisters). Originally from Sweden, the girls have been traveling the world and have called Rome, Florence, Berlin, Amsterdam and Accra their homes. Known for their super positive approach to life and amazing raw creations in the kitchen department, they promote self-love in a non-cheesy way, and share about the impact of plant-based lifestyle on their lives. I was super lucky to interview the girls about superfoods, transitioning to a raw vegan lifestyle, books, and their big plans for the future. Read on. 1. What brought you to Ghana? We got this fantastic and crazy idea to start our own production of sundried tropical fruits. When we started our health journey we realized how perfect dried fruits are as healthier snack options. We got so excited about this, and especially what benefits a project of this sort can bring to local communities in the producing countries. We started to talk about our idea, and one thing pretty much led to another. Through our contacts we were able to initiate our mango project in Ghana. Unfortunately it didn´t work out as we were hoping but in the end to the better. Currently we are in Sweden and actively working on some other exciting projects in Ghana. We can´t wait to go back early next year. 2. Do you find it easy to maintain your healthy lifestyle in Accra? It´s definitely possible to maintain a healthy lifestyle in Accra but it can also be challenging at times. There’s an abundance of fresh tropical fruits (heaven on Earth!) but we can´t really only live out of fruit. The supply of a great variety of foods is very limited in Ghana, especially the range of green veggies. We also learned out of experience to be cautious eating fresh greens and needed to use our creativity with the local ingredients to get a balanced diet as possible. There are easy and healthy options that Mother Nature provides us with all around Ghana though. So one traveling over there should not be worried not finding healthy foods. The situation is a bit different for us staying there for longer time periods to get all the right nutrition’s needed. Next time when we go back to Ghana again we are going to bring a lot of our superfoods with us. ghana-4 3. How did you get into eating raw vegan? Our raw vegan journey started in January 2013 and this change literally came over night. We both felt a drastic need for a change in our lives. We knew we are meant to feel good and started to make changes in our diet. We decided to go vegan for a month, just to see how we felt about it. Just after some days we felt sooo good and energetic which was incredible! We started to do research and found out about raw food. It felt like the most natural step at that point and that´s when our raw vegan journey started. Now we are living a highly raw vegan lifestyle. In Ghana, we started to incorporate some warm vegan meals into our diet (we couldn´t only live out of fruits). We felt very good about adding warm foods and especially now during the cold winter time here in Sweden. The most important thing is to listen to what our bodies' needs. 4. Do you have tips for those who're new to the raw vegan lifestyle? We went totally cold turkey doing our lifestyle change but what we would suggest is to take it step by step. Start by changing some of your meals raw. Start for example with a smoothie for breakfast. Feel your way forward on what feels good for you and don´t be too hard on yourself. Get excited about it and that you want to take care of your health. We also suggest you to find yourself a community. If you feel alone, you can easily find like-minded people online. There are plenty that are looking for support just like you so don´t be afraid to take the step. Create yourself an Instagram account, a great way to connect with others and to find inspiration and motivation. At the beginning of next year we are also going to launch our first E-book called “Raw Food for Beginners”. It´s a book intended to help you get started with raw food because it´s a jungle to know what superfoods to get, staple foods to have in the pantry, food combinations etc. We have been there ourselves and want to make it easier for you. Also, last but not least, HAVE FUN! 5. Is there a food that you can't live without? BANANAS! There’s just so much you can do with bananas. We use bananas as base in our smoothies, buckwheat porridges, chia puddings, desserts etc. They are just soooo good and we always make sure we are stocked up properly. 6. Do you have a favorite superfood? How do you eat it? Our favorite superfood is maca. We have it in our breakfast smoothie or buckwheat porridge. It gives such a good energy boost. Now when we don´t drink coffee maca has been our savior in the mornings. ;) 7. Can you share 3 of your favorite Instagram accounts to follow? @theswedishyogi - Tove is extremely inspiring and her account is filled with gorgeous yoga poses, healthy food and thoughtful texts. @theblondevegan – Jordan lives in NYC and her account is filled with mouthwatering healthy vegan recipes. @smileyjoforever – Joanna shares her life in a very beautiful, honest and inspiring way. Many thoughtful texts and beautiful pictures along with delicious food. 8. What is your message to everyone who will read this? Listen less to other people around you and trust your inner voice, it knows its way. Do your best to enjoy and have fun in every moment, life passes too fast if you don´t pay attention! 9. What is your favorite book? "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coleho. 10. You already have a big and dedicated following on Instagram, and you inspire daily with your ideas and recipes. What are the next big goals for The Raw Food Sisters? At the moment we are writing an E-book and we will launch in January 2014. We are also planning to come out with some other books throughout the year. Our next BIG goal is to go live with our coaching program. We inspire and coach other women to take their lives to the next level and to have the courage to go after their dreams. We love life and live our dreams. We have the tools to make it possible and wish for others to do the same, that´s why we are so passionate about our coaching. We are also working on some projects in Ghana and working on introducing our own health food products to the market. It´s very exciting times we have ahead of us! :) 11. What is your favorite breakfast? We love to start off our days with either a green smoothie or one of our all-time favorite buckwheat porridges. So let us introduce you to our delicious Raw Buckwheat Porridge with a Magic Maca Touch. It´s an excellent breakfast option to keep you going until lunch and it leaves you perfectly satisfied with a light feeling. It´s super easy to prepare!

It is now okay to be curious about your body, about energy fields, quantum mechanics, mysticism and - yes, I said it! - magic. With yoga and meditation movements booming, and other similar groups - such spiritual dance and Akashic studies - picking up the pace, a huge shift from judgement to curiosity is happening in global consciousness. Spiritual leader Gabby Bernstein now contributes to Elle magazine, Cameron Diaz has written a book on wellness, Alexa Chung talks about her psychic abilities. And people - only so naturally - love it. One of the leaders of this incredible movement is Ruby Warrington, aka "Mystic Ruby", whose website The Numinous proves that Céline shoes and the Celestine Prophecy can co-exist in beautiful harmony. A fellow lululemon contributor and a journalism superstar who has written for the Sunday Times Style and interviewed celebrities from Carey Mulligan to Lady Gaga, Ruby shared the story of The Numinous, and of course her favorite breakfast recipe, with Breakfast Criminals. Ruby Warrington | The Numinous Ruby Warrington | The Numinous Web: thenuminous.net Facebook: TheNuminousMagazine Instagram: @The_Numinous Twitter: @The_Numinous How did The Numinous come about? About two years ago I heard the word Numinous - meaning 'that which is unknown or unknowable' - and thought it would be a brilliant name for a site about everything mystical, seen through a modern, aspirational lens. It took a while for my idea to line up with the reality of my situation (i.e. the Universe intervening with a sudden move to NYC from London, which meant leaving my full time job there and giving me the time to do it) but now it's up and running I am more fulfilled than ever. I also have to give massive credit to all the amazing contributors who have helped make it match my grand vision for the project. What's your main resolution for 2014? I have actually just finished my first ever 'dry January' - and I think I'm going to carry this on throughout 2014. Mainly because without alcohol in my life I am about a million times more focused and confident in my actions - which is what I need to take the Numinous to the next level. You've met some of the most successful people in both of the best worlds: celebrities and spiritual leaders. How are the two groups different, if different at all? Well, it all depends on the individual of course, but the main difference is that while no celebrity wants to talk about their personal life, most spiritual leaders use their own experiences to inform their teachings - so the most deeply personal things they have experienced become integral to the story they want to broadcast to the world. On The Numinous, you cover a variety of mystic teachings, from numerology to human design, psychic powers, and tarot. Which one resonates the most with you? I've run several stories about ways to tap into your psychic powers on the site, and on a personal level learning to listen to and work with my own intuition feels like such an important part of my evolution. We all possess the 'sixth sense' and it's essentially how the Universe communicates with us on a daily basis! But I'm also a total astrology geek and could write or read about what's happening in the cosmos all day every day. AcroYoga star Chelsey Korus models The Numinous Chakra sweatshirt AcroYoga star Chelsey Korus models The Numinous Chakra sweatshirt What are your favorite books? This is really hard because it changes all the time. I love Bret Easton Ellis's dark, modern storytelling...but then 'Eat, Pray, Love' (which couldn't be more opposite) is definitely an all-time favorite! What's a life changing habit you have? It's a cliche, but since I started a regular meditation practice at the end of last year, my life has undoubtedly changed for the better. Mainly in that I'm able to 'hear myself' better - and not get caught up in anxiety about stuff I 'should' be doing. What is your message to everyone who will read this? Stop thinking about all things "Numinous" as only for super spiritual people or hippies - once you start seeing and working with the magic in everyday life, being a human being becomes so much more fun! Ruby Warrington | The Numinous Ruby Warrington | The Numinous What's your best advice for living a wholesome, healthy lifestyle? From a physical perspective, I actually think that it begins and ends with getting a good night's sleep. When we're tired, it's easy to make so many bad choices about what we eat, how we move, even what we spend our time and (remaining) energy on. And so focus on making this a priority and many other things will just fall into place. What is your favorite breakfast? I always start my day with a pint of hot water with lemon. Then, I have a green smoothie. I switched up from oatmeal to a green smoothie for about nine months ago, and I will never go back!! Here's the recipe. Ruby Warrington's Green Breakfast Smoothie Ruby Warrington's Green Breakfast Smoothie In a Vitamix, add (in this order): 3/4 cup of almond milk (I use unsweetened vanilla) 3/4 cup of filtered water Quarter of a large cantaloupe melon One banana Half a small avocado Quarter of a large cucumber Three heaped tablespoons of ground flax seeds Generous sprinkle of cinnamon One head of romaine lettuce BLITZ Finish with half a large bunch of kale and a handful of ice cubes. BLITZ AGAIN This makes a full Vitamix and is enough for my husband and I for two days. YUM! - [Wildly Inspiring: Interview with Heidi Kristoffer](https://www.breakfastcriminals.com/superfoods-breakfasts-with-wildly-inspiring-women-heidi-kristoffer/) - I met Heidi Kristoffer in August 2013, when I was lucky to celebrate my very special 25th birthday blissing out with the Strala team - Heidi, Tara Stiles and Mike Taylor, at the amazing yoga retreat they organized at Standard Spa in Miami. She got me at STRONG - her yoga classes are intense, super fun, and feel incredible both during and - [Wildly Inspiring: Interview with Anna Gannon, Manager at Strala Yoga](https://www.breakfastcriminals.com/people-we-admire-anna-gannon/) - As I've mentioned in my interview with The Raw Food Sisters, the movement-based yoga at Strala Yoga has changed my life. I have even signed up to become a Strala Yoga guide myself this coming fall and will be leading a yoga + superfoods retreat in November (YAY!). But things don't have the capacity to change your life. People do. In this case, I met absolutely amazing people at Strala,who have been providing me gentle guidance to allowing more ease (read: abundance) into my life. They shine bright and lead others to do the same. One of them is Anna Gannon, who not only leads fun yoga classes, but also makes the most amazing food (and documents it on her Instagram (@akgannon) and Facebook). AKGannon 1. I met you through your amazing yoga classes at Strala Yoga in NYC. Tell me more about what you do. Aw you are sweet! Well like you said, I lead classes at Strala Yoga and I also manage the studio. When I’m not leading yoga (which is not often! :)) you will find me cooking healthy meals for private clients, writing, spending time with my family, dabbling in food photography and playing around with new healthy recipes. Playtime at Strala! Me and Anna Gannon Playtime at Strala! Me and Anna 2. How did you get into yoga and healthy living? I’ve been fascinated by health for as long as I can remember. I was the teenage girl buying SHAPE magazine while all my friends read Cosmopolitan, and in my late teens I was asking for a Pilates reformer machine and a punching bag for my birthdays instead of a new car and clothes. My interest in yoga didn’t start until I was 23 when I tried a yoga DVD. It was really hard! But I kept at it and eventually caught the yoga bug. When I moved to New York City 5 years ago, I became 200hr yoga certified and have been leading classes ever since. Which is one of the best decisions I ever made, aside from walking into Strala Yoga. :) 3. Top 3 tips for a healthy, happy glow? Eat healthy fats - olive oil, avocado, nuts, etc. Use natural face wash and face lotion. Please don’t put chemicals on your skin! Drink lots of water and SMILE! Smiling is scientifically proven to make you feel and look better. Plus it’s crazy cost effective. :) Anna Gannon in Cloud Pants Anna Gannon in Cloud Pants 4. One tip for a deeper yoga practice. Close your eyes, focus on your breath, and feel. Allowing your breath and how you feel to lead you in yoga (and life) will take you towards things you never thought were possible. 5. Favorite words to live by? “No one has ever gotten anywhere by giving up.” I’ve watched a lot of people give up on their dreams because they weren’t willing to accept that they might not be great at it right away. Understanding that you will fail a bunch of times before you succeed is the key to doing whatever you want to do in your life. Anna Gannon 6. What is your food philosophy? Eat real food that makes you feel good. Stop dieting and start paying attention to you, and if you want a cheeseburger, eat it! Remember that your eating habits are not your life. Putting less pressure on yourself to eat or exercise like other people will be the key to you living your own happy, healthy life. 7. What's next for Anna Gannon (at Breakfast Criminals, only BIG dreams are allowed ;) I try my best to let things evolve in my life, checking in with how I feel and If I’m still working on where I am or ready to transition towards new things. At the moment my main focus is connecting with people through yoga, food, and happiness. Where that focus will take me next is just as good your guess as mine. But if you want an answer to what my next BIG dream is, I would say I’m already living it. :)Anna Gannon quote 8. Favorite breakfast to prepare at home? When I’m on the go I throw together my blueberry muffin smoothie! It’s packed with sweet blueberries, hearty oats, flax and chia seeds, and did I mention that it not only taste amazing but looks amazing too! The color alone with make your morning brighter!

So, let’s make the “yum” happen with a delicious, green smoothie bowl for your heart chakra! The recipe below will nourish your heart chakra through leafy green ingredients.

Last year, I came up with an idea of a social movement that would unite fair trade, ethical and eco-friendly organizations provide jobs to artisans who really depend on it. That's when Global Goods Partners and I started #FairTuesday, which is all about showing how even one purchase can affect lives of people in India, Cambodia, Peru, Kenya or elsewhere. Do you ever think where your clothes, accessories, and food come from, and whether they're produced ethically? It really does matter. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqsjfaPSbnI&w=560&h=315] #FairTuesday is today, on December 3, and I just finished all my holiday shopping, and proud to say that all my gifts will give twice. See all the amazing deals here. On another very happy note, most of my breakfasts are 100% ethical, thanks to Sambazon and Pitaya Plus, who both employ only ethical principles across the whole production cycle, and help farmers who work the land to earn a healthy living, from the Brazilian Amazon Rainforest to Nicaragua.

When I saw this review of blenders by McKel Hill on one of my favorite websites, NutritionStripped.com, I knew that I had to have a Blendtec Designer Series. So I reached out and told them that. And they complimented my creations and generously provided a blender for me to test out. I am happy to present the new addition to the Breakfast Criminals kitchen - Blendtec Designer Series blender! If I had to describe my Blendtec in one sentence, I would simply say that it changed my life... in a very fun way. Pitaya Smoothie Bowl Blended with Blendtec Pitaya Plus Smoothie Bowl Blended with Blendtec With a motor 5 to 10 times more powerful than a typical kitchen blender (13 amps/1560 watts and 3 peak horsepower), blending speed of a lightning, a sleek illuminated touch panel with six blend cycles, and a big WildSide jar that fits 4 servings of my breakfast smoothie bowls, Blendtec Designer Series is perfect for making healthy breakfasts using fresh and frozen fruit, vegetables and nuts. The texture turns out super smooth and creamy. I also have the Twister Jar - a smaller jar meant for blending thicker concoctions, such as homemade almond butter (yes!), cocoa nut truffles and hummus (which I make with turmeric, truffle olive oil and ginger). Raw Cocoa Protein Nut Balls Created with Blendtec Raw Cocoa Protein Nut Balls Created with Blendtec Some pros of Blendtec Designer Series blender that I've experienced include: 3 horsepower motor for an incredible blending speed sleek design cool illuminated panel with 6 blend cycles super easy cleaning (designed in such a way that pieces of food don't get stuck anywhere) the BPA-Free Wildside jar fits in 90 fl oz, or over 2.5 liters of smoothies achieves super smooth consistency in frozen and fresh smoothies and soups blends nuts into a creamy texture without chunks (my raw cocoa nut balls proved it) recipe book including smoothies, baked goods, nut dishes, soups, etc. Definitely going to use it! The only disadvantages of Blendtec Designer Series is that is can get pretty loud (your roommates will forgive you if you share your blended creation with them, I promise), and the lid sometimes has to be held down to stay in place (doable). Other than that, Blendtec Designer Series is to me what a new MacBook Pro would be to a nerd... such a fun gadget to play with!

I had such a wonderful time my my Strala girls - Elena Kul Healthy You, Anna Gannon and Tara Stiles - getting to know MBG founder Jason Wachob, Woodson Merrell, M.D. (author of "The Detox Prescription") and Courtney Nichols Gould of SmartyPants. These super knowledgeable people have tried many health fads, meal plans and food philosophies, and in the end, all of them seem to have the healthy living thing down. Here are the five things I learned from the discussion: Love and spiritual connectivity is the most important thing in life. If you don't have that area life fulfilled, no diet, no exercise and no juice cleanse will make you a happier person. Be more accepting of yourself. Judge less. Ate a cookie? It's fine. Missed a workout? Don't stress about it. Morning is the most important part of the day (DUH!). Hence, start it with a proper breakfast meal :) Meditation is life-changing. When you do it every morning, you will see the results affecting all areas of your life. Listen to YOUR body. There are a lot of diets and food philosophies out there, but the only thing that matters is what works for you. Tune into your body, and ask yourself how you feel after a meal. The most important knowledge you need is already within you. - [Breakfast Criminals Giveaway On Instagram! ](https://www.breakfastcriminals.com/breakfast-criminals-giveaway-on-instagram/) - I'm so lucky to be sharing my love for healthy breakfast with such an amazing community, I love you guys!

This caused the moon to receive no direct light from the sun, being lit only by the dim light refracted and reddened by the Earth’s atmosphere. The "blood moon" appeared for about an hour in each time zone, gathering crowds of people watching the cosmic sight. NASA live-streamed a video of the happening, yet when I woke up at the peak of the event at 3.45am in New York, the website was overwhelmed and wouldn't load. Luckily, NASA has shared a great animation of the eclipse. This was the first of four “blood moons”–or tetrad–which is a series of four consecutive total lunar eclipses, with six full moons in between, that will happen over the course of the next 18 months. Besides being a beautiful sight, an eclipse is a very strong energetic event that affects each and every one of us. I spoke with one of New York's most famous astrologers, John Marchesella, to find out more. John Marchesella John Marchesella How do eclipses influence us? The time of eclipses makes everyone a bit overreactive and sensitive about any existing issues. It's very common for people to get sick during eclipse, because they have a very detoxing effect. It can be in the form of emotional detoxing, when you feel like getting rid of something you've been carrying on your chest for a while, or a purely physical detox. That's exactly while fasts often coincide with the lunar calendar. Does that mean that it's good to do a cleanse around the time of an eclipse? The best time to do a fast is on the day of the full moon to the third quarter, because that's when the moon is waning, and it helps toxins to leave the body. If you don't know what you're doing with a fast, then the worst time to fast is between the first quarter and the full moon - it's just too much detoxing for the body. Detoxing on a new moon isn't a good idea, because the body wants to hold onto toxins instead of letting go. That concerns juicing and any other type of cleanse, but only in case if you're giving up solid foods completely. If you're looking for a good cleanse, I highly recommend Joulebody. It's a New York-based company that uses only ingredients straight from local farms that are 100% free of gluten and preservatives, served in eco-friendly bottles and mason jars. I've tried several cleanses, and none of them left me feeling as detoxified and recharged (and NOT hungry!). - [Must Read: The Raw Food Sisters' eBook](https://www.breakfastcriminals.com/must-read-the-raw-food-sisters-ebook/) - When I saw that The Raw Food Sisters, whom I interviewed earlier this year, are working on an eBook, I knew I had to have it.
