Just heading back from which inspired me to share what helped me most in a hot field for three days. There was no WiFi on site in deepest darkest Dorset which provided a digital detox for everyone and made it feel pretty special 🙏🏼

So delicious, so easy and great with dal. Naturally gluten free too.

330 g buckwheat flour (2 cups)
1.5 tsp ground rock salt (or less to taste)
750 ml water (3 1/3 cups)
1 egg
ghee / coconut oil

In a large bowl, mix together the buckwheat flour and the salt.
Gradually mix in the water. I use an electric hand mixer to make this really quick but it works very well with just an old-fashioned wooden spoon.
Beat in the egg.
Leave to stand for a little while if you can (~ 1/2 hour) or just go straight to the next step if you don’t have time.
Grease your frying pan with a little ghee or coconut oil.
Add some batter, swirl around to make your pancake. Cook until lightly browned and firm before flipping and repeating on the other side.

Have you made these?

I’m sure I’m not the only one!

Apparently it’s now called an ‘ingredients household’. Maybe it should just be called a ‘household’?

Comment 👍 if you relate!

Three ‘healthy’ habits that are actually messing up your digestion:

1. Eating heaps of protein: Protein is so important and good for building tissue. It’s heavy to digest though so there is such a thing as too much. Check in with how you feel after meals to make sure you’re not overdoing it.

2. Eating chillies: Chillies are nice and fiery to get your digestion going right? Gentler spices are great for this but anything that creates a burning sensation, such as chillis, cayenne pepper, chilli powder will cause problems.

3. Drinking litres and litres of water: Keep hydrated, the more the better right? Hydration is so important but overdoing it can weaken your digestion and each person is different.

Comment below with any ‘healthy’ habits which have done your digestion harm 👋

Share with a friend who does one of these ❤️

Ayurveda prescribes sunshine, fresh air, exercise and spending time with loved ones to live a healthy life. Not rocket science but it’s amazing how often we need reminding.
