I will be calmly active, actively calm. I will not become lazy and mentally ossified. Nor will I be overactive, able to earn money but unable to enjoy life. I will meditate regularly to maintain true balance. --Paramahansa Yogananda, "Metaphysical Meditations"

Whether you are suffering in this life, or smiling with opulence and power, your consciousness should remain unchanged. If you can accomplish even-mindedness, nothing can ever hurt you. The lives of all great masters show that they have achieved this blessed state. --Paramahansa Yogananda, "Man's Eternal Quest"

Ciao Bella!

Things are getting a little heavy in the blogosphere recently, I think one will take a breather!Ingredients:
1 cup water

1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp of mixed spice (ground cinnamon, nutmeg, all spice)
2 1/2 cups  spelt flour
2 tsp of baking powder
2 tsp of baking soda
silken tofu
1 carrot grated
1 zucchini grated
1 cup chopped walnuts
2 Tbs of sunflower seeds
2 Tbs of pumpkin seeds
( or any other nuts or seeds of your choice: poppy seeds, sesame seeds, almond slivers, brazil nuts chopped etc)
1/4 cup of oil  olive oil



Method
1. Boil water and add sugar and spice. Stir till dissolved then set aside to cool.
2. Sift flour, baking powder and baking soda together into a mixing bowl.
3. Grate carrot and zucchini into a separate bowl from the dry mix. Whisk in silken tofu to the grated vegetables. Then gradually combine the sugar water to this wet mix.
4. Put a well in the middle of the flour mix and add the wet mix. Combine well. I used a standing cake mixer which combined it really well, but is not necessary. You can just use a whisk and mixing bowl.
5. Now to combine the oil to the mixture.
6. Finally add your nuts and seeds. Mix then scoop into  tins. My muffin tins were not non-stick so I just used paper liners
7. Put in oven for 40 Mins on 160C.

Monday!

Do not make unimportant things important, nor concentrate on trifles at the expense of vital matters, or you will hamper your progress. Impulsive actions that are not in keeping with one's duties are undesirable. --Paramahansa Yogananda, in a "Para-gram"

Halva-like Goodness!

Combined some soaked organic and fair trade sesame seeds with dried fruit(with citrus peels:) and raw cacao powder to make the most deliciously-indulgent chocolatey fix ever(think of a healthy chocolate orange but nicer:). Sesame seeds are a excellent plant-source of Ca, essential fats, amino acids, Fe and feel-good chemicals to beat away the seasonal blues!
