“Rest and Self-care are so important. When you take time to replenish your spirit, it allows you to serve others from the overflow. You cannot serve from an empty vessel.” - Eleanor Brown • • • Rest is so undervalued in today’s society. We seem to feel a constant need to be contributing, creating and achieving. But actually it’s in those quiet moment of rest and ‘nothing’ that we have our best ideas, that there is room for us to get excited about creating. Remember that today - take some time for nothing (and for an overflowing bowl of porridge 😍) • • • Oats cooked with salt and water, then topped with homemade granola, frozen raspberries (reheated with a splash of water - thanks for the inspiration @deliciouslyella ), chocolate and cacao nibs 🤤 • • • #nourishbowl #porridgeinspo #healthyrecipes #eatwellbewell #onmyplate #mentalhealth #selfcare #nourishyourself #stress #burnout #moodfood #goodmoodfood #mentalhealthquotes #inspirationtuesday (at Copenhagen) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4MY8KonYCp/?igshid=1xxsgscikp2ph

His and hers bowls to greet September 🍂 • • • Im enjoying the cold, rainy weather today and using it to help me stay in bed - I’ve been fighting off a cold for over a week (because I just can’t resist the temptation to jump into the sea when the weather is good!) - and have now decided it’s actually time to rest and get better! Who else struggles with this? I keep thinking I eat so well I shouldn’t be getting sick - but it’s not just about nutrients! It’s also about sleep and rest and so many other things! • • This is a simple organic cardamom and cinnamon porridge (with some parsnip grated in for extra veg) topped with a little ghee and enhanced with some hemp protein (to follow that all important blood sugar rule of combining carbs, fats and proteins!). NEVER eat your porridge plain or with only sweet potato ingredients ☝️ • • • #nutritionaltherapy #seasonal #autumn #health #wellbeing #selfcare #glutenfreefeedfeed #breakfastideas #nourishbowl #oats #porridge #hempprotein #realfood #onmyplate #bloodsugarbalance #organic (at Copenhagen) https://www.instagram.com/p/B18Y-5MnV63/?igshid=ldrd84kxgh0r

My version of one of my favourite Ghanaian foods- Rice balls with peanut stew 😃 • • • My version is made with: whole grain rice, cooked, blended and formed into balls, and the stew is made from browned onions, pickled mango, a big bunch of spinach, two tablespoons peanut butter and water - so gloopy and tasty and satisfying 🤤 - and actually gives you three of your five a day 😌 • • • #fiveaday #ghana #traditionalfood #nourishingtraditions #plantbased #recipeideas #realfood #nourishbowl #vegan #vegetarian #nightshadefree #sustainable (at Copenhagen) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzpmL33nTid/?igshid=z324obnginym

Super simple summery dinner - leftover rice cooked into rice pudding by adding raisins, cinnamon and coconut milk (still hunting for whole cardamom here in Copenhagen!) - served with homemade rhubarb, banana and apple compote and danish strawberries 🤤 🍓 🍨 • • • #summer #scandinavia #local #dairyfree #refinedsugarfree #healthyrecipes #easydinner #realfood (at Copenhagen) https://www.instagram.com/p/By6-y_EH9tD/?igshid=1j0ban86k34pt

From testing to final product- I had so much fun making our wedding cakes, trying to tailor them to all of Lukas’ preferences and imagining the joy it would bring him! In the wedding chaos i lost the paper on which I scribbled the final recipes- so I’ll have to start all over to be able to share the recipes with you 💁‍♀️😌🤤 • • • These cakes were gluten free, refined sugar free (I used my dad’s home made acacia honey!) and easily made dairy free by switching the butter for coconut oil! - decorating with stunning bunting by the wonderful @janika_h who supplied a lot of the beautiful final touches of decorating at our wedding 😍😍😍 • • • • • #weddingcake #baking #handmade #homemade #glutenfree #dairyfree #sugarfree #healthybaking #wedding #recipes #cake https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx7pSdeHlKT/?igshid=1a6di00ya8y02

Last day already - going to miss these days of luxury and no dishes and no cooking and incredible views! But also looking forward to settling into or little yellow house and creating some married life routines 💛 • • • • • • • #marriedlife #honeymoon #endings #husbandandwifetravels #bangkok #thailand #views #routine #mindfulliving #slowingdown (at The Continent Hotel) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxjJL6yHLsT/?igshid=1xhweffuyqnh6

To my wonderful maid of honour... • • • • @giuliabagnasco I couldn’t have wishes for a better person by my side for those days- constantly making sure I was resting and happy and beautiful, letting me cry and be emotional, taking on any worries I might have so I didn’t need to and reading every wish from my eyes and making it happen. You are so wonderful my sister from another mister (🙈🙈🙈) and I am endlessly lucky to have you in my life!!!! • • • Photographs by @emmapap____spoof And @kiesslingo (at Soltau, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxOds_IH-WU/?igshid=16gvvk9ovptyx

Turquoise rivers, floating bamboo cottages, Misty sunrises and chaotic transport links that somehow get you where you’re going (after an hour of walking through dirt roads carrying a suitcase 😅) • • • P.s. for those of you following me for recipes and food inspiration- fear not, after the honeymoon I’ll be back to posting food content and I will create a separate account for private and travel photos 😇 • • • #honeymoon #husbandandwifetravels #thailand #goexplore #travelphotography #hellojungle #floatinghotel (at Khao Sok National Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxMMQmFHVye/?igshid=1f3ys7w7nks6b
