Yoga Hike

 Hiking Escondido Falls in Malibu canyon on a beautiful day requires that you pause to take a moment to observe the power of nature. What better way to do that then to strike a few yoga poses! Whether on a rock or the edge of a cliff, it always provides a fresh perspective to take your practice off the mat and out into the world.

Climb a Tree, Strike a Pose

Tree pose is one of my favorite asanas because it allows you to remain fully rooted in the earth while reaching to the sky. If you can find this same balance in your life then I think you have found one of the keys to unlocking happiness.

Pumpkin Orange Soup






I eat soup for breakfast, lunch and dinner. This one is great any time of the day! It can be made either vegan or protein style.

2 onions finely chopped
1-2 cloves of garlic finely chopped
32 Ounces of pumpkin
32 Ounces of chicken broth (Use vegetable broth for vegan option)
1 Tablespoon orange zest
1/2 Cup orange juice
1 Teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Salt and Pepper to taste
French Bread (Optional)

Sautee onions in butter with salt and pepper until fragrant and translucent. Add the garlic for the
last 2-3 minutes. Stir in the broth, pumpkin, red pepper flakes, orange zest and orange juice. Simmer for 30 minutes until flavors combine. Remove from heat and puree until smooth.

Serve with toasted french bread.
