J is for juicing


It's Friday! Time for the weekend - but whether you've got a big one planned, or you're hoping to relax for a couple of days in preparation for next week, give yourself a boost today and get your weekend off to the best start!

A couple of months ago, I did a 3 day juice cleanse and I'm craving another one! Giving your body the chance to sit back and relax while filling it with all the natural goodness it could ever want is not something to be overlooked! Even if you haven't got the time or money to spend on a 3 day cleanse, do your body a favour and juice something today - you'll feel so great for it! Remember, if you're feeling tired, run down or just a bit off, its probably your body's way of asking for some much needed TLC - do not ignore!

Below are some shots of some of the delicious juices I made over the three day cleanse. The green had  spinach and celery in it; the purple, beetroot of course; the orange one was full of carrots and oranges; and the paler green had avocado and cucumber, amongst other things. But with all of them being made with a base of apple and/or pineapple juice, they were sweet and fresh, and hardly resembled the ingredients that were thrown in originally!


If you Google juicing recipes, you'll be flooded with new ideas for tasty combinations of fruits and veg! There is no excuse not to at least have a look for some juice-spiration right now, and for those of you without a juicer, don't fear, if you have a blender you can create something equally great! All you need is some good quality apple juice or any dairy free milk to act as the base for your smoothie - why not try adding a banana and some mixed berries?

There's no time like the present, so love yourself and reap the rewards!

Oh and don't forget - spread a little happiness today! X
