Diet and Nutrition
Many of us do not have time to eat how we want to and end up "grabbing" something to fuel us until the next pit stop. If this "fuel" doesn't meet our nutritional needs, we can eventually become unwell.
Dawn says "I feel that in addition to having homeopathic treatment to gently steer ourselves back to health, it is important to satisfy our nutritional needs with our diet". According to your individual needs and desires, Dawn can help you adjust or completely change your diet to help you feel energised about your day.

Recipes
Just to get you started here is a recipe Dawn loves to make (and eat) with her children - for those must have chocolate moments!
CHOCOLATE IF YOU DARE!
4oz of dates, pureed (Medjool are yummy - but do remove the stones)
4oz sesame seeds or ground almonds
4 oz raw cacao powder
A few drops of vanilla essence to taste
Whiz it all up together in a blender - add more dates to get the consistency you want. Make into little truffle balls and roll in fresh grated coconut if you wish. Now for the tricky bit - store them in the fridge and eat them ONE AT A TIME - share them if you dare!

Muesli
This is a really simple recipe that you can make up in advance and eat as and when you wish.
First - select your storage box or tin (so you can vary the quantity you can make)
3 cups of oats
1/2 cup of pumpkin seeds
1/2 cup of sunflower seeds
1/2 cup sesame seeds
1/4 cup of coconut chips or desiccated coconut
1/2 cup sultanas or other vine fruit
cinnamon to taste (optional)
Put all the ingredients in the storage box, put the lid on tight and give it a good shake - ta-da.
Muesli! - You can try varying the recipe with nuts or other spices such as ginger or mixed spice.
Serve with yogurt or soak over night in the fridge with apple juice or your favourite milk - or even water.

Nut Meat
This is a simple, quick to make meal that will give you bounds of nutrition in a mouthful. It can be made in advance and stored for several days in the fridge. Again, you can vary the quantities and the ingredients to make your own special dish.
Please note - this is a simple recipe - so all measurements are simple - have fun!
1 cup cashew nuts
1 cup almonds (soaked over night if you can)
a large handful of shelled hemp seeds
2 large carrots (roughly chopped)
1 small bulb of fennel (roughly chopped)
2 stalks of celery (roughly chopped)
1/2 cup fresh parsley (use less if you use dried)
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon tahini (sesame seed paste)
pinch of Himalayan rock salt (or Celtic sea salt)
Please note - you may need a little water if you have not soaked the almonds
optional - try adding onion or other vegetables such as courgette.
Put all the nuts and vegetables into a food processor and process until minced up.
Add the remaining ingredients and process to combine.
Then make the mixture into a loaf shape. Store in the fridge until you are ready to eat.
You can serve this at room temperature with steamed veg or you can serve it with salad and winter sprouts such as (my favourite) lentils.
Why not try replacing the almonds with Brazil nuts - or the tahini with a nut or seed butter - or even making it a seed loaf. You could also ring the changes with the herb flavours try oregano or rosemary. I would love to hear what you come up with - perhaps even a photo of your handy work!
