Food Awareness
Spiced fruit bowl:
Eating fruit seasonally is an incredible way of aligning our body’s ecosystem with our larger environment as seasonal fruits provide us the vitamins and enzymes we need to boost our wellbeing in a particular season.
Serves 1 – 2
2 cups fresh, seasonal fruit. For a spring bowl use berries, for a summer bowl: stone fruit, tropical fruits such as papaya, mango, pineapple and bananas, for a fall bowl: pears, apples, persimmons and maybe even jicama; and for a winter bowl: stewed fruits, or citrus fruits.
1 tbsp orange blossom water (this is my secret ingredient that adds so much flavor. Find it at a middle eastern market)
pinch of cinnamon
½ tsp lemon or lime juice
bit of raw, runny honey if needed
pinch of sea salt + black pepper (the seasonings help us to digest the fruit better)
- Add all ingredients except fruit in a bowl, mix well.
- Now add the fruit and toss lightly until well coated with the spice mixture.
- Eat slowly and savor the flavours.
- This is delicious with a cashew or coconut cream as well.
- Don’t forget to share any photos on social media using hashtag #blissologyproject + #highpranafood
Gratitude
- Tell someone you love why you’re grateful for them. Be totally present while you do this. Look into their eyes and speak from your heart.
Wild Card
- Sing in the shower. Whether it’s a favourite song or your own made up tune don’t hold back and really let it out!
