Why do guests come to my retreats and events? For many reasons and for some it’s an opportunity just to press pause for a while, leave one reality behind to escape in to another, and to spend time just being part of the sunset. Letting go. I’m so looking forward to a week cheffing for YOU with the brilliant @anna__middleton and yoga with the gorgeous @caitleeke. Meditation each night. Immersed in nature. Oh yeah.

I was talking with a wonderful lady the other day. About coming to bootcamp SEPTEMBER 28- OCT 5th and OCTOBER 5-12th She was #stressed. #FedUp. Anxious. Ready for this but completely nervous about the bootcamp bit. Nervous about the ‘training’ and stuff. I reassured her (as I was looking right down at my own Buddha belly at the time!) that she was not alone. That everyone comes to bootcamp not feeling ready, able or good enough - and leaves feeling on top of the world!! We do FRIENDLY FITNESS. Ya see @rawjuicecamp is the kind of wellness holiday where it’s ok to let go of fear, let your ass hang out of your yoga pants, try your best to do a sit up without crying of embarrassment and build up your confidence that YOU CAN DO THIS!! all while devouring a nourishing plantbased Raw foods menu prepared by me 💕🙏🏻🍇🍓🥦🥑🧘🏻‍♀️🍉 I totes love 💕 this!

CONFESSION! Here I am mid bootcamp yesterday with my lovely trainer Rich. I was feeling the burn and catching my breath on the steps before our hike. Everyone who knows me KNOWS that I’m NO super fittie (I never try to hide that) I’m the super FOODIE at @rawjuicecamp and I create awesome plantbased fuel for everyday folks and athletes who want to move their bodies some more. I’m 50 next year (waaahhh?!) and I’m getting married to my childhood sweetheart (awwww) so that’s two good reasons why I need to #reboot my butt and get back in better shape. To have the strength to enjoy it all (not just about getting my butt in to a nice dress) I’ve been a lazy schmoo, ya know, just enjoying this wonderful thing called LIFE! And here’s the confession: I‘m trying my best not to care anymore what people think of my gut or my butt! This industry can be unkind to those who don’t look like a gold medal winner or a petite ballerina doing yoga. THIS is the VERY reason why I put myself out there to show folks like YOU that anything is possible, YOU DO HAVE PERMISSION in all forms to move your body and get your wiggle on. Getting a little fitter is NOT an exclusive club for the young and slim. Middle aged flabbies like me can get it on too. I HONESTLY think that ALL we’re meant to do in life is: 🌿 explore (be interested in EVERYTHING) 🤸🏻‍♂️ move (enjoy our bodies) 🥣 eat mindfully (ALL food is a gift) 💕 love (ourselves & each other) 🥳 celebrate each other & our differences ☺️ be kind (to ourselves & all people n animals) What would you add to the list?! 💪🏼🦋🤔 And if others don’t like you’re vibe?! Shake your booty at them and move on... #wigglewiggle #middleage #pcos #love #happiness #bootcamp #eatplants #lovelife #bekind #hatersgonnahate #imgettingmarried #getfit #fuckhaters #gratitude #belly

It’s coming May 11!! Last spaces available for my first One Day plantbased day of wellness with our trainer Rich @weedonbootcamp. It includes some bootcamp antics- a hike and a couple of workouts followed by smoothie demos and loads more!

Cheese making. Chocolate making. Mushroom blend creating. Burger making. Sprouting. Juicing. Blending... just some of the wonderful memories of cheffing for our awesome guests this season with @exploreraw, my private teaching and retreats. Without a doubt I love this job. Preparing healing plant food & holding a space for others to just ‘be’. I always say that ‘what’s inside always comes out’ you just can’t hide from it - and I don’t mean just the food 😜 I mean ‘ones truth’: anxiety, stress, love, hate, fear, happiness, sadness. All of it. All of our emotions can spill out when we Detox. When we stop thinking that we HAVE to keep holding it in. Gotta let go of it all (good stuff & bad stuff) to make space for the new stuff (good & bad) Just don’t blame the cheese. Or the cheese makers. Or those holding that space for you... hardest thing in the world sometimes to do. But allowing those around you to hold space while you learn to let go can often help create some of the most powerful and beautiful relationships ever. Love your space holders, friends, teachers, yogis, trainers, feeders... they are the greatest gift! Big love to all my Explore Raw team, helpers, volunteers and magic makers who’ve helped hold incredible spaces for wonderful people this season. Thank YOU @fiter_nutrition @londonnutcheeseco @rawjuicecamp @lauren_lovatt @carla.p.s.santos @filipesilva.healingartmassage @rosemary_paradiyoga @weedonbootcamp @medicineweaver @kelzygreg @my_namesjames @lucia.warrior @janet_shook love you all #lovemine #fuelledbyplants by plants, the ocean & nature #Inspirational #women #plantpusher #youarestrongerthanyouknow #love #wow #beach #sea #letitgo #bethebestyoupossible #bethelove #bringyourfoodtolife #vegan #detox #retreat #vegancheese #cashewcamembert #truth #loveitall #cheflife #gratitude

Hi gorgeous loves. I’ve had LOADS of interest in our one day bootcamps so they may become a permanent fixture at a range of UK locations. Hint hint: Wales will defo be on the cards!! It’s just £99!! So if you are tempted (or just bootcamp curious) then come along! Feel free to message me & ask me ANY questions about the day. You really DONT need to be ‘fit’ to come. But if you’re unsure whether this one day of awesomeness is for you just message me and we can chat about it. It’s a lovely kick up the bum for your wellness this year and you’ll likely lose 2lb..?! To be honest I’m looking forward to Richard Jones @weedonbootcamp kicking my butt because I’m a lazy slouch. So I NEED THIS!! There are just 2 spaces left at the early bird price before it goes back up to £149. May 11, Northamptonshire (don’t take the online stock as availability as some guests have booked separately) currently says 14 spaces left but it’s 12 - with lots of interest. You get all day bootcamp with us, (hike & 3-4 workouts) smoothie making demo, 3 protein smoothies, snacks (probs burgers) and a bootcamp hoody worth £22. Quite honestly it’s a STEAL at £149 never mind £99!! Ask any questions guys & see you there!

*** CLAIM YOUR 10% OFF CBD OIL USING THE CODE ‘ExploreRaw’ *** I am totally thrilled that I am finally able to share this product with YOU! I have been researching and exploring #CBD and related products now for two years and I always keep coming back to this one: why? Because it tastes great (some of them out there woooahh so bad) and I am a #chef and it matters. It’s also beautifully healing (can I scientifically prove it? No) but I have used this with a group of friends now for more than 12 months and they have experienced relief from ailments that include: #LymeDisease #Depression #JointPain #Sickness #Nausea #Fatigue #fybromyalgia I use it to keep #anxiety at bay the best I can: with 6 retreats to organise this year, a house sale, a #wedding and a move to #Wales I would say I need it!! The team behind the product are also great: their focus is on #holisticwellness and their aim is to spread #HEALING vibrations across the planet. This is not a £££ MLM (multi layered marketing where everyone gets hungry for £$ rather than hungry for healing) and this matters to me VERY MUCH. They also source #organic #ethical ingredients. If you are ready to introduce this gorgeous oil in to your plant based regime then I can thoroughly recommend this! Don’t forget to use the code ‘ExploreRaw’ at the checkout to get your 10% off! And take a look around their website too while you are there: awesome products that I just love - The discount applies to all products.
