You all should have received my special offer coupon today by now. I LOVE this weeks offer. Its Chlorella!

We don’t always have time to make a full meal using greens, or to make fresh green juice, which is why I love having Chlorenergy tablets around.

Chlorellais actually my favorite thing to take because it’s super-important for health. Derived from algae, Chlorenergy is 100% natural and is packed with vitamins, minerals and so much more.

Whether you eat a raw diet or not, trust me, these Chlorenergy tablets are one of the best things you can take for your body every day!

This is one wild, funky yoga mat, but I love it!

What makes Mandala’s large, circular mat so great is that no matter which way you turn, reach, stretch, or lean, your body stays on it. Flip your downward dog and your foot is still on the cushy padded surface…not slipping and sliding on the bare floor! I especially like using this during Shivasana because I can extend my arms and legs without having to worry about my fingers and toes hanging over the edges. It’s a little big to take a regular class but for home use, it’s a major luxury.

And for all the yoga instructors out there, here’s a little added plus: my sister uses this when she teaches classes and says it’s awesome because she never has to turn it to demonstrate poses at the front of the room. Pretty cool, right?

The mat comes with a yoga pad to add some extra cushion for your knees, sacrum, hip bones, and headstand (or to sit on during meditation practice), and Mandala’s natural mat cleaner specially formulated with essential oils to keep your mat clean and smelling fresh.

If you’re heading out on a road trip, throw this into the car for your travels. You’ll be glad you have it if you do yoga in your hotel room so you don’t end up having to touch the itchy carpet underneath!

The amazing special deal for this mat will be in your inbox today at noon and is good until noon tomorrow, the 23rd.

Ok here’s the recipe:

Burdock Root is a powerful anti-inflammatory herbal tea. A mildly bitter herb, it also stimulates the release of gastric juices and aids digestion.

Shilajit is considered the king herb of Ayurveda, the traditional Indian system of medicine. Shilajit contains at least 85 minerals in ionic form. Shilajit is a Sanskrit word meaning “conqueror of mountains and destroyer of weakness.” It is a mineral-rich humus (soil) that emanates from the crevices of the Himalayan mountains. Shilajit is truly a remarkable substance with a long history of human usage for healing, building, and rejuvenation.

Combine burdock tea and shilajit powder with these other ingredients to take the place of your morning coffee.

1 cup brewed burdock root tea

1 cup almond milk

1 teaspoon shilajit powder

1 tablespoon agave nectar

Combine all ingredients in a vita-mix or blender until frothy and warm from blending. Sprinkle with a little cinnamon if desired.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE these bars! I don’t know about you, but I’m not crazy about most packaged bars. I always wonder whats really in them. These Love Force Bars are made with all organic raw ingredients.

These are great as energy bars or even dessert, but Ive also been using them as a quick whole food meal. They’re extremely filling! They’re individually wrapped so I keep a few in my glove compartment whenever I’m out and about and don’t have to to stop or when I know I wont be home for hours. Stock up on these before a plane trip -you’ll be so happy to find one in your bag during a long flight. I took a bunch with me on my recent trip to Italy as an easy treat.

Oh and they taste incredible! They’re made with nuts, seeds, dates, berries, and all different spices - they have a lot of different flavors and they are all delicious!

Each bar weighs 3 oz and the sample pack includes:

• Cherry Vanilla
• Chocolate vanilla
• Chocolate Lemon
• Fig Ginger
• Granola Cacao
• Mango Pecan
• Chocolate Mint
• Goji Lemon
• Chocolate Orange

Okay now for the Sauerkraut Recipe!!!

Look how cool the inside of this cabbage looks! I only use purple cabbage  most of the time.

This is from my new book Raw Food for Everyone. Ive been making this throughout the winter and its so good for digestion and just taste so amazing! I dont even wait untill it ferments to eat it, its great that day!

Sauerkraut

Shred the cabbage with a knife, rather than in a food processor, so the cabbage comes out shredded rather than diced. Sauerkraut makes a great addition to wraps and other sandwiches. If you want less heat, reduce the amount of jalapeño. No water is necessary in this fermenting process because of the high moisture content of cabbage and the use of salt in this recipe. Warmer weather will expedite the process. It’s ready when the cabbage has softened and there’s a slightly fizzy, slightly sour taste.

Makes 8 cups

3 cups apple cider vinegar

1 to 2 jalapeño chiles, stemmed

1½ tablespoons coriander seeds

½ head napa cabbage, shredded

½ head purple cabbage, shredded

2 teaspoons sea salt

1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1. Put the vinegar, jalapeños, and coriander seeds in a Vita-Mix and blend to create the brine. Set aside.

2. Combine the cabbage, salt, and pepper and thoroughly toss with the brine. Place in a ceramic bowl or large crock. Store at room temperature on the countertop for 5 days, stirring at least once a day.

3. Transfer the sauerkraut to clean quart-size jars, cover, and refrigerate for up to 3 weeks.

A winter wonderland here today! Wow, a foot and a half!

So, I just got back from Italy a few days ago. Dennis and I and another couple went for 2 weeks. We had so much fun! Its Dennis’ favorite place. We’ve been 4 times now and if I told him I’d move there, he’d be packed tomorrow!

Below is Florence Italy on New Years Eve. It was insane with so many people!

I went to a lot of museums and tried to get my art fix while we were in Florence and Siena.

We drove to Santa Margherita and spend a few days there and also went to Portofino.

And of course, the produce was amazing! Lychee’s, persimmons and everything else you can think of!

So that’s what I did over the holidays but now –  its back to biz.
