Happy Easter from Yoga Trade! Springtime is a time of new beginnings and creations. Sometimes we are fortunate enough to meet people along our journeys that are bursting with creative spring-like energy. Kristin Esposito is one of these creative wonders. She is currently based out of Brooklyn, New York, and is a nutritionist, world traveler, freelance writer, and a yoga teacher at Stanton Street Yoga.
Here she shares a recipe for a delicious and nutritious delight from her blog, Mindful Muse;
Nothing says spring more than the bud-to-bloom of the beloved Cherry Blossom Tree – with their elegant drapes of flowers and endless color, these trees dance in the spring breeze. As I found myself daydreaming about these amazing trees and anxiously await their bounty of beauty I immediately found myself craving and thinking about my other beloved cherries. Now I know I’m getting ahead of myself as cherries aren’t in season until summer but I just can’t resist. With cherries on my mind in all forms, I blended up this delicious smoothie to go with my side of cherry blossom daydreaming.
1 1/4 cup cherries, frozen or fresh
1 1/2 cup almond milk
2 tsp. cacao powder
1 tsp. coconut nectar or honey
Small handful alfalfa sprouts
Dash of cinnamon
Blend and enjoy.
Be open and honest with your creative bursts of energy this spring.
Be inspired by health and happiness! Follow the recipes and life loving words of Kristin here;
