AWAKENING TO RAW ebook

nibl on this

My beautiful friend in Dunedin New Zealand has recently began running raw plant based food classes and workshops, she's also started a blog called nibl on this.

Her latest post mentions me, I was pretty cuffed about that as it makes me feel great to be an inspiration in someones raw food journey. 

Below is a screen shot of that part the blog post, you can click on the pic to enlarge it.

Classes have begin at KI FLOW Studio for 2013

Classes are back in action for 2013. check the Timetable for term 1 HERE 

On Sunday 17th March I am running a Master Class 1 day Workshop at the Yoga Tree with one of my teachers Chris Dwyer for more information go HERE 

I have a new class starting from Monday 4th February. An early morning "Start the week of well" class from 6.15am till 7.30am. It will be an 8 week block and an investment of $200. If you decide to join later in term, it will be priced accordantly. 
After running the 5 day intensive for Starting 2013 off well a few weeks back, the feedback  from the students was early morning classes gave them improvement in daily energy levels, deeper sleep, a stronger body, more alignment in their structure, calmer nervous system, more internal balance, a more positive outlook, direction and focus for 2013. KI FLOW Intensive's will run at the change of season throughout 2013 each time with a focus on the seasonal element from an oriental perspective.

The regular on-going Thursday 6pm class has changed to 7pm. 

Send me an email, facebook message, txt or phone call 0416 873599 to book in for any of the classes new and on-going or the master class workshop in February. 

My Healing and Shiatsu Treatments are back in action now too after the holiday break, you can read about that HERE you can also read testimonial's from students and clients HERE  

I will at some point over next few months be running a yoga and raw food workshop at Autumn Retreat in Thornbury on the North side, and a Raw Food Demo at the Yoga Tree in Elstenwick on the South Side to promote my ebook AWAKENING TO RAW.

Renée's raw vegan pesto spagetti recipe

The other night I went to a friends for dinner, I made a salad out of whatever I had on hand, and it was delicious. It had a a real pesto flavour that I didn't actually intend, which got me to thinking about the many raw vegan pesto pasta recipes, Ive read and tried, so I revisited the flavours I had put into the salad and came up with this raw pesto spaghetti. 

This recipe serves 1-2 depending on how hungry you are.

3 zucchini's spiralized to make noodles or "spagetti"
1 cup thinly sliced fresh basil
1/3 cup hemp seeds
1/3 cup pine nuts
1/3 cup raw cashew "parmesan" (recipe below)
olives and capers sliced, as many as you like
olive oil to taste
1 garlic clove crushed
sea salt and cracked pepper to taste
1/4 red onion sliced and diced thinly
small handful of baby spinach sliced
juice from half a lemon
zest from half a lemon 

With the hands massage the olive oil, salt, crushed garlic, and lemon juice into the zuchinni spagetti, then add all other ingredients, and mix again with your hands, allow all the flavours to infuse before serving. 

Here's is my Raw vegan cashew 'Parmeson" recipe form my ebook "AWAKENING TO RAW" 

This dairy free living parmesan cheese substitute is so savory & satisfying.
Use it on pasta, lasagna, casseroles and salads.

1 cup raw cashew nuts 1⁄3 cup nutritional yeast 1 teaspoon salt
1 clove garlic

Instructions:

Combine ingredients in a food processor fitted with a
metal “S” blade. Pulse on and off until the mixture is finely
ground and even.
Transfer to a tightly lidded container and store in refrigerator for a few months. 

Aotearoa home

I'm in New Zealand.

It's so great to be in the homeland, I arrived home to my mums today in Dunedin, she had raw mixed nuts sitting on the bench to snack on, hemp milk in the fridge and a box of New Zealand made raw bars from Awaken Energy in the cupboard. 

My yoga and raw food workshop is this Saturday so I'm busy planning and putting together everything I need for that, writing plans, finishing my ebook, I had a yoga photoshoot on Friday, here are a few of the postures, they will be going into a plan for my students to take home to practice. 

Ki FLOW Healing yoga & raw food workshop in New Zealand

In July I'm coming to New Zealand to teach a workshop on yoga and raw food in Dunedin and maybe Christchurch. 

My mum has taken on the role of "workshop manager" so I know I'm in great hands :)
