For one serving, chop up raw organic. . . - 1c Kale massaged in lemon juice - 1/4 Green bell pepper - 4 cherry tomatoes - Dill to taste - Cilantro to taste - 1/4 Sweet white onion Boil a can of Amy’s organic lentil soup. Stir in last night’s cooked quinoa. Then, pour everything over the raw veggies. Add a scoop or two of red beet-cabbage organic sauerkraut by Wildbrine for probiotics. Bless with gratitude and savor!

Happy Digestion Spring Salad
4/4/2023
 Here’s a delicious way to nourish your body with diverse nutrients and empower your healthy digestion with prebiotics, probiotics, hydration and fiber! Harmonize with spring’s vibrant energy through all organic ingredients in Happy Digestion Spring Salad. Ravenous after a trail-run, I scoured the fridge and threw these refreshing plants together and felt inspired to share this multi-textured uber-satisfying vegan meal with you, as a recipe. Ingredients:
Steps: 1. Hand massage (to tenderize) the kale in the whole lemon’s squeezed juice, the olive oil, a few dashes of Himalayan salt and black pepper. Set aside to marinate raw. 2. Spice the garbanzo beans with paprika and garam masala to taste. (I used leftovers I had previously baked in these spices the day before.) 3. Mix all the ingredients together and adjust the spices to taste. 4. Bless the meal, Mama Earth and your body with gratitude, and savor mindfully with a hot cup of tea, like my favorite combination of Tulsi Hibiscus from Organic India with Organic Decaf Black Tea. Feel free to share your experience with this recipe or alterations you enjoyed below! |

REviews of Root 2 Rise Yoga with Michelle chua:
Michelle truly lives out what she teaches. She is so much more than a yoga teacher - I learned this when I went on her exquisitely curated trip that she organized to Costa Rica this past June 2018...Hopefully like me, you'll be delighted by her effervescent love of movement, nature, and all people! Michelle clearly stands out with her beautiful and bright energy. I love how her practice and teaching encompass body, mind and spirit. She not only teaches yoga but lives and exudes it. Michelle not only teaches 'yoga', she embodies it fully with her heart and soul... Michelle is by far one of the best instructors I've ever had, period. Patient, clear in her explanations and demos, and so encouraging... My first yoga class was with Michelle years ago. You can have the best (yoga pose) sequence and not teach from your heart. With Michelle, I also feel her passion when I'm in her class. I can see she loves what she does, and she inspired me to want to teach yoga, too. |

I'm so grateful to have met Michelle! Her kind energy opened up my interest in pursuing yoga and meditation. She is such an incredibly light and soul. She starts with grounding ourselves through mindfulness and breathing exercise. She brings the most authentic energy to the class by sharing the history and understanding behind poses, names, and techniques. I truly appreciate her work and impact on my well-being! I’ve had dozens of instructors over the years, but Michelle is far and away the best yoga mentor I’ve ever practiced with. She epitomizes grace during these difficult times. Michelle has saved my sanity and my back while working from home, keeping me grounded with her sharing of yogic teachings and meditation techniques. Her repertoire of physical asanas is encyclopedic, and I’ve loved learning new poses and stretching my boundaries. Jump in, all. You’ve got this! |
