27/10 – Just for the guys ; Cooking & Nutritional workshop – “ManFood”

Published by Cecilia Götherström
  • Food, beer, Vikings & Warriors 😉

 

We have been teaching cooking and nutritional workshops, holding seminars,  arranging trips for 6 years now under the umbrella of Yummy, Fun and Healthy Living. Having seen the trend in commercials the past years, in media, in training for you guys and more  a question arose as we were planning the next line of workshops, which was “what about the guys??!!”

So, it is time for a workshop for the men out there!

What about those trends, myths and ideas rolling around lately that we are all cavemen and need to eat like a caveman? And if we do, what did a caveman really eat? How did a caveman really live and move? What about the modern cave-men, the one who likes his beer – the Viking and Warrior-part, which came slightly later than the caveman?

How can he live Healthily ever after while still having a Fun life? What food stuff makes a man feel like a man and what food stuff does the opposite?

In this workshop we will dive straight into cooking a meal, while enjoying a cold beer or two and simultaneously filling up on real scientific knowledge mixed in with some fun historical and mythological facts where science meets Netflix in some ways.

At the end of the workshop we eat the meal we cooked, while another seminar sums up the facts and fiction leaving plenty of room for any questions you have on the subject.

The more questions that arise, the merrier!

23/10 Sunday Health Food Brunch / Café in Haarlem

Published by Cecilia Götherström

 

Welcome to Yummy, Fun And Healthy Living´s Health Food Brunch series!

The whole point of this series is that you can actually bring any questions you have about nutrition/food & drinks with regards to your health to this morning get together and we will answer all of them –  as well as provide you with recipe suggestions and/or ways to tweak your already favourite foods wherever necessary.

Every Health Food Brunch will start off with a small introduction and a theme to get started, to get the discussion and questions going – after that we can deviate in any direction you would like to, within the field of nutrition and health.

We are totally stoked to be giving these Q & A mornings at MICA Coffebar in Haarlem, a beautiful setting where you can truly be yourself and enjoy amazingly yummy and pure food and drink products.

Warm welcome!

22/10 , Cooking and Nutritional Workshop – Myths and Truths about Fat/s and Your Health

Published by Cecilia Götherström

 

Welcome to part 2 in our “Myths and Truths” series!

Last time we dove in to sugar – this time we are diving in to “Myths and Truths about Fat/s and Your Health”.

How exciting!

We are actually totally stoked to be hosting this workshop on this very subject – first of all as there is of course so much Yummy, Fun and Healthy Food to be cooked within this theme.

Secondly as we love to give these workshops and meet all of you.

Thirdly because if there is any section within nutrition that has been swinging up and down, back and forth when it comes to trends and myths the past 30 years – Fat/s is the true winner. Science and research wise, it has been a true trip of discovery in to the nature of our digestive system and metabolism next to the tremendous effect and importance to our health.

So, we will learn all there is to learn about Fat/s and Your Health in this workshop. We will cook some tremendously Yummy food in this workshop. We will be able to ask all we want to know, to question all we would like to question in this workshop – the more questions the merrier. And, of course, at the end of the workshop we will all sit down together and enjoy the delicious meal we all prepared.

Plus, we can promise, it will be loads of fun!

Guest Teacher Sarah Richer from Canada, July 1st in Heemstede

Published by Cecilia Götherström

I am totally stoked to introduce my dear collegue and friend , Vijnana Yoga Teacher Sarah Richer from Canada to you all here in The Netherlands.
This coming Friday she is guest teaching at EVA`Z Yoga & Pilates in Heemstede. Looking forward to seeing you all there!
When?
Friday 1/7, 18.00-19.30
Investment : EUR 15:- or 1 x on your “strippen-kaart”

All levels welcome!

Sarah is from Montreal but has lived on the Canadian West Coast for the last 15 years.
She studied yoga as an avocation for 10 years before taking her first teacher training.
After several years of teaching, she began to experience discomfort in her joints from overdoing it in yoga, and had to learn how to put her body back together.
She will be teachings the basics of differentiating passively stretching, or elongating, tissues and areas of the body as opposed to actively taking joints to their end range of motion, and challenging the supporting system of muscles and tissues to hold the body in its end range of motion, as well as  teaching the merits and application of both.

Sarah has been studying with Orit Sen Gupta for the last 7 years, and is ongoing in her studies of Vijnana Yoga.
She has also studied the Iyengar and Ashtanga practices for many years previously, and is currently following and learning from Michael Stone. Her passion is transmitting the moving meditation aspect of asana in her classes, and offering her knowledge of yoga as a way to empower people of an ancient pathway we can all use to reconnect to our essential nature.

Welcome!

Chia Pudding

Chiapudding – yummy recipe

Published by Cecilia Götherström

I have to admit that the first time I had a go at making the now oh-so-trendy Chia Pudding for the first time, the result was the same as that initial sip of shampoo you get down your throat as a kid when you don´t listen to your mum asking you to keep your eyes and mouth closed as she is washing your hair (aged 3 or so 😉 🙂 ).

Totally not yum, or anything close to it.

So I stayed off making any of these the-worlds-easiest-and-fastest-plus-superhealthy breakfasts for almost a year, savouring the tasty one´s I could get in cafés in Östersund, Göteborg, Köbenhavn, Haarlem, Heemstede, Amsterdam…

Then a few weeks ago this recipe landed in our shopping cart – can´t remember if it was from Dekamarkt or AH, but anyway – it´s totally yum! Not a hint of shampoo taste, just total bliss.

If you´d like to try it, here it is;

Ingredients;

1 can full fat coconut milk

40 gr chia seeds

2 tbspns honey or maple syrup

1 tspn vanilla extract

Half a mango (the original recipe was for wild peaches, but they´re not in season, so you go with what you´ve got as Stephi says)

50 gr almonds

Directions;

All you do is stir together all ingredients aside from the almonds and fruit/berries.

Pour the mixture in to two bowls, tea cups or jars. Let them sit in the fridge over night.

Spread the fruit/berries and the almonds on top of your pudding in the morning and enjoy!

Glutenfree paleo cracker

Super healthy, yummy crackers in no time

Published by Cecilia Götherström

Being allergic to gluten means it is not that easy to just grab something when it´s snack time. Which might feel sligth annoying at times , yet is is a true blessing for your health as you get in to using more and more pure foods – cooking and creating from scratch.

I found the base of this recipe in one of those free magazines you get at your supermarket, some months ago. As usual I did not have all the ingredients in the house as I got to test this recipe yesterday , but I did have quite some things I could supplement with.

Imagine my surprise when these were not just super easy and mega fast to make, but actually tasted divine :-).

Go ahead and try  for yourself!

Ingredients;

150 grams almond flour

70 grams seeds – I used a mix of flaxseed, pumpkinseed and sunflower seeds this time

1,5 tbspn olive oil

1 sligtly whisked egg

2 tspns of dried herbs

Heat your oven to 180 degrees C.

Mix all the ingredients together with your hands, forming a sort of doe.

Place a baking sheet on an oven plate, put the doe in a lump on the sheet. Put another baking sheet on top of the doe. Roll the doe flat with a rolling pin, until it is approximately 2-3 mm thin.

Remove the top sheet. With the top of a knife, slice little square crackers.

Put the oven plate in the oven for 12 – 15 minutes.

Ready!

Enjoy!
