Meet Denise Christian

The Gourmand

It’s fair to say that I like food. A lot. I am also a bit of a food snob. I do not like processed food. I do not like cheap, poor quality ingredients. I don’t do fast food. I don’t do meat. Some may call me particular, a little unfairly because I like all vegetables, all fruits, all legumes, all seeds, all nuts…But I do not like meat substitutes much or anything that is pretending to be meat, like fake bacon (Facon?!). I think that vegetarian and vegan cuisine has more than enough delicious variety without having to dress up like meat to get into the party. I would love to convince people to have meat at less than half of their meals each week. And by people, I mean my boyfriend, Andy. And to do this, we have to make the food taste goooood!

Food got me into yoga. I cooked for yoga retreats years ago as a way to get deeper into my practice. I have now been teaching Ashtanga Yoga for 15 years. Yoga continues to influence the way I think about food: the politics of food, the importance of nutrition, the delight of a good meal lovingly prepared. I hope that through our blog we can spread our love and enthusiasm for meat-free food. www.AshtangaYogaCornwall.com

Meet Jacquie O'Neill

The Mom!

AKA KarmaMama www.KarmaMama.com

Yes! That's me! Buried in the midst of my 4 daughters!

So, you probably already figured out I'm a Mama of 4 daughters, but did you know that I believe Green Juice and Yoga are the way to a happy and healthy life?

I also believe that your health and wellness is a gift that you should take personal responsibility for. I believe you should move often and eat clean & green. I believe in nature, in organics, in Ayurveda, in botanical tinctures and holistic health.

I am a Yogini, observing the 8 Limbs of Yoga and doing my best to live by their code. I strive for honesty and integrity and above all, LOVE. I am a mother who nurtures her daughters so they can venture out in to the world equipped to live a life full of vitality and love.

Oh, and for a living, I am a freelance illustrator. I specialise in contemporary Fashion and Lifestyle illustrations, created in the digital medium. :-) - Just in case you ever need and illustration!! www.JacquieONeill.com
