The more consciousness you bring into your body,
the stronger your immune system becomes.
It is as if every cell awakens and rejoices.
Your body loves your attention.
It is also a potent form of self-healing.

Velvety Pears with Anise Seeds, Lemon and Honey Recipe

The pears and their juice may be enjoyed together, or you can eat the pears as a dessert and warm the juice to sip as a soothing tea. continue reading

Meditation changes the heart’s capacity to accept Life as it is.
