My Son's drinking Green Smoothies

Hurrrah, hurrah! My son, Tom, 18 going on 208 (in terms of being the wisest soul I know - when it comes to other people) had his second green smoothie today.

After most of his life screwing up his nose at anything remotely "green" he's decided I look and feel so good there must be something in this green business! Whatever his reasons, or yours, he's doing it and that's all that matters, just DOING IT.

Whatever it is that you want to do and have been resisting DO something today that will be a baby step towards it. You'll feel relieved and so pleased, and the Universe will send you more positive reinforcement than you are able to imagine at the moment. Cos if you're not doing it for whatever reason then you're in fear.

Fear is an illusion! It doesn't exist, it's a figment borne of your sub-conscious beliefs which have manifested in your conscious mind. In short you've made it all up. There's nothing to be scared of or fear...treat yourself kindly as you would a child and say supportive, loving words and send nurturing feelings and support to yourself so you can make that small, tiny step - make the phone call, do the research, write down what it is you really want - Go On...and imagine I'm there with you, cheering you on...because you know what? I am, in spirit, I'm right by your side doing it with you!

Anyway, back to the smoothie Tom had today.

Green Magic Potion...for those mornings when you want your cells to sing and dance you all the way to work...

2 handfuls of spinach
half a mango
1 banana
2 spoonfuls of papaya flesh ( I just love the look of papaya's when you open them up - all those shiney black seeds - wow)
Add water to the consistency you want, less to eat as a pudding
Add some ice if you want more freshness

Put it all in your magic blending device and press GO!

Tip: when blending with greens, remember to put the runnier, softer fruits and water in first, it puts less pressure on your equipment!
