As you can see we’ve had a bit of a Makeover. I’m so, so happy with the look, feel, and vibration of it. We simply had to be in alignment with the look and feel of the NEW AGE!
If you weren’t on my Facebook & Instagram LIVES today you may not have heard me speak about the New Age that is emerging. This isn’t a cute little phrase I’m using; it’s a time period that will be written about in the history books.
Certain systems have had to break down and deep issues have had to rise to the surface – on a personal, national AND global level.
It’s only when we become fully conscious and aware of problems that can solutions be found.
In this week’s video, I share with you where the world is heading, where the Elegant Life is heading, and what that all means for YOU!
Watch and learn all about it and let me know….are you with me?
Are you ready to be an Elegant, Divine part of history?
This week I am sharing one of my favorite high vibe recipes. No added sugar carrot cake! Healthy, nutritious and tasty.
Here is the full recipe:
For the Cream Cheese Topping
2 large packages (total 500g) of full-fat cream cheese (dairy or coconut)
170 g unsalted butter, softened
1/3 cup (80ml) honey or maple syrup (I actually
like doing half honey & half maple syrup)
1 tsp lemon juice
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
Method:
Beat the cream cheese and butter until
completely smooth.
Add the honey/maple syrup, lemon juice, vanilla extract and beat together. Cover and place in the refrigerator for at least an hour or two.
For the Cake
2 1/4 cups 9260g) white spelt flour (or any white flour)
1 cup (100g) unsweetened flaked coconut
1 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp Himalayan salt (or regular salt is fine)
1tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1 cup + 2tbsp (270ml) coconut oil, melted (can
use vegetable oil instead)
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
3 tbsp honey
2 packed cups (200g) of grated carrots
1 cup (226 g) crushed pineapple (can buy pineapple
in the can and quickly blend to a crushed texture)
1 cup (140g) raisins
Optional: 1 cup (110g) walnuts, chopped
Method:
Preheat the oven to 180 C | 350 F.
Grease and flour a 9 X 13” pan.
Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda,
salt, spices and coconut in a large bowl. Mix until well combined.
Mix the oil and eggs in a measuring jug and pour
into the flour mixture.
Mix together with a wooden spoon. Add the honey, carrot, pineapple and mix once more until all the ingredients are well combined and no dry pockets are present.
Add the raisins (and walnuts if using) and fold
into the batter.
Pour into the greased & floured pan and
smooth until it’s all level.
Bake for 30 minutes for a fan (convection oven
or 35-40 minutes for a regular oven.
The cake is ready when it’s firm on top and a
toothpick comes out clean.
Place the cake pan on a wire rack to let the
cake fully cool.
Once the cake is fully cool, smooth the frosting
on top.
How are you feeling about the Coronavirus? Scared? Anxious? Don’t care? Nervous? Worried? Overwhelmed?
This week I had a loyal follower of The Elegant
ask me to share The Elegant Life perspective on the whole Coronavirus pandemic,
and I’m SO glad she did!
I am sitting back watching what feels like a Mini-Series on TV! And the underlying current that is being perpetuated is FEAR.
At the start of 2020, I filmed a video on the NEW powerful energy that is at work now. The momentum for change and elevation in consciousness is almost palpable!
This is the energy at play right now and if we use it wisely, via The Elegant Life Principles, we can floooow through this time period with ease & elegance and at the same time reach new levels of consciousness.
So, ready to hear my take on the whole Coronavirus Saga?
So, here’s one of the TOP questions I get asked: “How do I find my Life Purpose?”
Women all over the world are feeling the inner urge for fulfillment. Life as usual just isn’t cutting it anymore.
They want to feel like they are having an
impact. Doing something they love. Experiencing a sense of fulfillment that
simply doesn’t come from working for someone or being a mother or wife.
Not that those things are bad or boring or don’t bring a certain sense of fulfillment but women are desiring MORE.
I could do a masterclass on this topic actually, which I am sensing will very soon (Let me know if this would interest you by leaving me a comment below, okay?)
But, the video I filmed this week came to me to share first. It’s the first understanding and perspective that is necessary. PLUS I lead you through a guided meditation.
So, if you are one of the many women who is
desiring more from life, this video is for you. Please share it with any woman
you know who may benefit from hearing the message, okay?
How can I count the number of gifts it bestowed upon me? One of the grandest being self-love.
When you do a google search on self-love you will find videos, blogs, quotes, and podcasts speaking about WHY we need self-love, but what I have always found missing was the HOW.
HOW do we love ourselves?
I’ll never forget a memory: me in my early twenties, refusing to spontaneously go dancing with my group of friends.
Now, I LOVE dancing! It wasn’t that I didn’t want to dance, I DID! What stopped me in my tracks was that I didn’t feel confident enough in myself, have enough self-love & self-acceptance, to walk in there and just dance my heart out…while wearing jeans and a T-Shirt.
Instead, I got very upset with my friends who were “pressuring” me to go. I turned it on THEM and was so hurt that they were not being understanding.
(See how we spin things to suit our
ego/limiting beliefs?)
The next day I went over to my much older
friend’s house and shared my woes, hoping she would agree with my allegations.
She didn’t.
We got into a very looooooong discussion and then I asked her, “How do you know what your style is? You always seem so self-confident.”
Her answer? “I don’t know. I just do.”
Not very helpful, right?
This really sent me on a self-love pilgrimage. In 1997-1998 I found myself in France; a country where self-love comes easier. Not for everyone, but there is something ingrained in the women that served me SO well…and I want to share it with you in today’s video.
With SO Much Love,
