This stuff is like a pot of gold! It’s the #Thermomix vegetable stock concentrate. Just veggies chopped and cooked with salt. If you have a Thermomix and you are not using this then trust me, do it! A Tbs is like a stockcube and it’s only full of good stuff. No chemical flavour enhancers or sugar, just real food. The salt preserves it so it will last in the fridge for months, but it also scoops from the freezer. Use it in soups, risottos, stews, pot roasts. #vegetablestock #jerf #justeatrealfood #flavour

Pickles pickles! Who loves pickles!! I had sooo many zucchini from my garden this year and some mega ones that I didn’t want to go to waste so I went a-pickling! I chickened out and didn’t do fermented ones, but did use apple cider vinegar instead of white and though they need to ideally sit a few months they are delish! Thanks @grownandgathered for the recipe (except the vinegar switch!) and @angels_healthfoods for the seasonings - the best tasting ACV, mustard seeds, celery seeds and organic turmeric #pickles #zucchinipickles #courgettepickles #nowastedfood

This week I heard of 2 people taking their life. One a young Mum, and another an older gentleman who is well know in my community. I knew neither of them personally but the effects on people who do has been significant. Every 40 seconds a life is lost to suicide globally and is the second leading cause of death. Today I wear orange to raise awareness of suicide prevention and to reduce the stigma of suicide. To anyone in my life who is suffering with depression, I am here for you, if you need to talk, I am here for you, if you are affected by someone who has taken their life, I am here for you. #worthliving #theorangeproject

I have a child that really pushes her luck with ‘treats’ it’s pretty frustrating! Yet today this pretty much the entirety of her Easter consumption, prob less as I sneaked a bit too! Interesting sometimes when you set no limits that there is little to worry about ...on the flip side, there was sooooo much joy with the initial egg hunt that it had to be repeated, over and over and over and over again! #easter2018 #loveanegghunt #whitechocolateonlyplease #notbrownchocolate #lol

6 months ago, during a course, the teacher had all of the participants write a letter to ourselves. Something kind, loving and words of wisdom. At the time it felt a bit weird, but I wrote something and recently the letter arrived in the mail, having completely forgotten about it. This is what it said “Dear Kristine, you are curious, kind, generous and determined. You deserve to be stimulated by your work and pursue your passion which is the support of breastfeeding and lactation. Have confidence in your ability to get started without perfecting anything. Look beyond your current place of employment for future opportunities” Soon after this I quickly forgot about the letter, but the universe presented two pretty big hints at me. I stepped out of my comfort zone, found some courage and asked a question. Both come back with a big YES and all of a sudden I had two job offers. One stood out and I grabbed it. For those following my page locally, I now practice physiotherapy at Island Physiotherapy and Clinical Pilates (based at Coastal Health) with some fabulous physios! Spread the word! And whilst I practice a variety of methods including sports, spinal and Pilates, please remember me if you, or someone you know is having breastfeeding difficulties, be it attachment or supply related or mastitis/blocked ducts. #changeisgreat #newjob #physiotherapy #physiotherapy #lactation #breastfeeding #lettertomyself #courage @karacassells @kc_cleeland 💕💕

My fast is done and dusted - completed my 3 days with just water (lots), herbal teas and using Miessence FAST 3 x a day. Day 3 was at work yesterday. I am a physiotherapist so it’s physically and mentally demanding, but I was absolutely fine. Can’t say I truly felt hungry the whole time (the protein in the FAST supplement and drinking lots of fluids helps here) but I did miss food! I lost almost 3kg which is great, but the main reason I did it was to rest my digestive system. The indulgences of the Christmas period feel like they have lasted months and I wasn’t feeling great, especially in the guts, and kept getting a cold every few weeks. I have kicked my latest cold, my stomach isn’t bloated, my jeans fit better and mentally I feel clearer and stronger. Yay! #fast #fasting #3dayfast #miessenceFAST #fastingweightloss #3kgin3days #fastingheals #fastingformentalhealth

Post holiday harvest 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Having a garden is a sure fire way of getting your children interested in veggies. Is there anything better than a cherry tomato wrapped in a basil leaf and eaten within seconds of picking?? My daughter will demand these little ‘treats’ now. She is also rather astute at preferring homegrown sweet tomatoes to acidic supermarket ones. #childrencanloveveggies #homegrownveg #4yotomatosnob
