The wheel of samskara and raw, chocolate, chilli mousse
After a week of learning, unlearning, stretching, growing and eating on an amazing yoga retreat in Abu Dhabi I am ready to embrace clean thinking with my clean eating.
Studying the Kleshas (the causes of suffering) and the wheel of samskara (generalized patterns) samskaras are individual impressions, ideas, or actions; taken together, our samskaras make up our conditioning. Repeating samskaras reinforces them, creating a groove that is difficult to resist. Samskaras can be positive—imagine the selfless acts of Mother Theresa. They can also be negative, as in the self-lacerating mental patterns that underlie low self-esteem and self-destructive relationships. The negative samskaras are what hinder our positive evolution.)
I need to still be true to myself and indulge just a little, No one wants lack of chocolate to be a cause for suffering.
Raw Dark Chilli Chocolate Mousse it is! It sounds like it has some hidden nasties but it’s actually 100% clean, and would kick any sugar laden mousse to the curb!
A few avocados blended into a pulp depending on the size of the avocados
Some cacao, almond milk, coconut oil & cinnamon
A pinch or two of cayenne pepper
Manuka honey or rice malt syrup
Shredded coconut and LSA (linseed, sesame seed and almond meal)
Put it all in the blender, blend and enjoy!
