24.01.2022 My first bulk cook up in my new house. And she’s loving it! #kitchari is an ancient #ayurvedic recipe known to balance the body and mind. Summer can make for a sluggish digestion so even though it’s hot, if your gut is struggling now (or anytime) then cooked foods are the way to go. And smaller amounts throughout the day. No BIG dinners for those of us with sensitive and demanding guts. I like to have kitchari twice a week for the whole day. Small bowls. It’s so yummy it’...s ridiculous. Today I added the veggies I had in my fridge to the basic recipe. (Below) If you’re worried about the white rice and it’s carb content - remember that when you cook carbs, then cool them - they no longer metabolise in your body as carbs normally do. That’s right folks! Even if you then reheat them. Think potato salad, nori rolls, leftover roast spuds, rice salad, fried rice... Here’s my basic recipe. I doubled this recipe today and will freeze most of it, and pull one out the morning before I want to EAT IT! All organic ingredients are recommended, naturally. #janellasrecipes #goodgutfood #delicioushealthyfood for the #bodymindsoul #spleenrecipes And a video clip here of me making it! https://www.instagram.com/p/BvXoRswgViE/ KITCHARI RECIPE * 2 Tbsp of ghee (or coconut oil) * 1/2 cup of split yellow mung dahl * 1/2 cup of white rice * 2 tsp cumin seeds * 2 tsp fennel seeds * 2 tbsp freshly grated ginger * 1tsp turmeric powder or 1 tbsp fresh root grated * pinch of black pepper * 1 tsp of asafoetida * 1 tsp #dulseflakes * 4 shiitake mushrooms, fresh or dried * 10-15 curry leaves * 1 big tsp good salt * 1 onion (finely chopped) * 1-3 garlic cloves (finely chopped) * 4-8 cups of water (can be adjusted according to how long you soak your rice and lentils for and how thick you like it). Method - soak your rice and lentils together for a few hours, or overnight then rinse. Then add them to your herbs and spices that you’ve sautéed in the ghee or oil. Add the water and cook on a low simmer until the rice and lentils are soft.

21.01.2022 My ‘Seafood Lasagne’ from #janellaswholefoodkitchen I usually make this or a version of every Xmas. This is an older recipe so I tweak it a bit these days. For the white sauce you can use organic butter, olive oil or another #vegan alternative instead of the #omegaspread and organic gluten-free or white spelt flour, or any flour you like really. #spelt or organic wheat lasagne sheets are easier to digest that refined wheat sheets. This lasagne is always a crowd pleaser. Use #line and pole seafood, not ‘sustainable’. That just means it’s been farmed. And that means #antibiotics and toxic food colouring added (for fresh salmon). Buy local ‘wild’ seafood. #buylocal #sulphurfreeprawns

20.01.2022 Coconut + Peanut Butter Rough - definitely one of my more popular recipes. And the feedback I get, besides it’s very yummy- is that it’s MY fault if you eat the entire thing in 2 days. Ok so how about making half a batch and eating it in a week? So funny what sweets do to us. And really, if you don’t over stuff your face then it’s better for you to eat this yummy thing than not. Antioxidants, iron, calcium, happiness, omega oils, joy, wonderful for thyroid health, a ste...ady weight, anti-Candida and loads of fibre for a happy gut. Today I put a piece into a smoothy with oat milk and frozen banana. STOP IT! I’m still full and I had that around 3pm. Go’on! Make a batch for Xmas. Just try to leave some for your guests. Recipe also in #janellassupernaturalfood or on my website. (Apologies I deleted the last post of this clip. I just noticed it was cut short and we can’t be having that.) #janellasrecipes #healthydesserts #guiltissolastcentury #eatforhealthandhappiness #bobymindhealing #cacaolovers

19.01.2022 Ready to make the change you’ve so long thought about? Let’s do it! I’m back doing sessions in full swing now, and thrilled to be. I’ll shut down from Dec 23 for a couple of weeks - so if you want to prevent the mistakes you made last holiday season - book in now. Or else I’ll be here to help you get back on track in January. Sometimes you only need one session to get the info you need. The amount of times you see me depends on how deep you want to go into the reasons why yo...ur health isn’t as you would like it to be. I cover every possible factor - be it diet, beliefs, you exposure to toxic chemicals, your emotional stress levels, and the everyday routines and habits of you. Your sleep patterns, default feelings and reactions, how safe you feel in the world, or not, how much of yourself you’re giving away, or not - and much more. If you’re ready to remove guilt, confusion, shame, addictions, bloating, sleeplessness, impatience, exhaustion, pain, forgetfulness and self loathing - let’s do it!

17.01.2022 It’s our responsibility after all - to support the next generation to be happy, peaceful, capable and self aware humans. For the betterment of the whole. #showmetheway

16.01.2022 Why do we strive for biodiversity in the natural world of flora and fauna, but not within our own species? We’ve learned from a relatively recent #patriarchalculture that only one body type, skin colour, sex, attitude and education level is acceptable. It’s so contradictory to how we (mostly) view the rest of the planet. I’ve just finished listening to a wonderful podcast on Brené Brown new series with @sonyareneetaylor They talked about #radicalselflove and it’s connection ...to social justice. https://podcasts.apple.com//unlocking-us-wit/id1494350511 Understanding the connection between how we think about our bodies and oppression. It’s worth a listen. As are Brene’s other interviews. #iamthatiam #equalityforall #biodiversity means we thrive not merely survive.

15.01.2022 Kindness seems to be out of fashion. Can we bring it back please!? It’s #cooltobekind We’re all this together so let’s look out for each other. It’s a #madworld out there so a bit of kindness will no doubt go a long way. #janellassoapbox

14.01.2022 Oh thanks for the LIKE and the reminder FB. On the menu tomorrow! #y40dt

12.01.2022 I just went flower collecting around my property and came back with lots of pink and red blooms. The red ones here are #passionflower used in herbal medicine for sleep, add to reduce anxiety. They create a sense of calm and ease. You can get passionflower tea from health food stores, or get the strong tincture or tablets. Or put them all over the house and that alone is going to put joy in ur heart. #beespa makeover #christmasblooms #xerowaste #janellasgarden

10.01.2022 Xmas lunch at my place yesterday. First time without my birth family, or a partner’s family - but instead with some of my tribe. What a divine and relaxed day. We all did a dish or 3, and naturally everything was organic, either grown ourselves or locally. Mostly #vegan with a little goat’s cheese in one of the lasagnes. I picked up some freshly caught green prawns from the @newbrightonfarmersmarket so I made them into #garlicprawns Hardly any washing up last night either as we all shared the cooking. The wine! (Pictured) From @organicpassion family vineyard. Oh heavens! It tasted like an old-world elixir that dripped sweet berry tasting goodness into your body. Great Xmas day. I might have to make this a tradition at my place. #nowastechristmas #organicpassion @thewormisturning #truefriendship #locallove

09.01.2022 I made these lovely #blissballs for a ladies lunch this week. Served after a #felafel spread. For the bliss balls I used dried figs, #cardamom (just a tiny bit) dates, rose petals and #rosewater and #walnuts and #tahini then rolled them in #almondmeal and sprinkled with more #rosepetals I served them with tea - black tea leaves that I simmered with fresh #mint leaves, strained then out back in the pot and added honey. #sweetdelight #janellasrecipes

09.01.2022 Now you know where they are, do you know what they do when they’re unhappy? Think (ha) memory loss, weight gain (or sometimes loss), age spots, skin tags, terrible digestion, sleep and mood, zero sex drive, fertility and menstrual challenges, anxiety and depression, drab skin, achey joints, compromised immunity - and it goes on. Think of your adrenal glands like your petrol tank. They need to be filled up, and serviced, and regularly. #adrenalcollapse #burnout #stopdoing an...d start BEing a human BE-ing. For lots more on the subject of an empty tank whilst continuing to speed, and do ‘burnouts’, check out my latest book #your40daytransformation or my eBook on #adrenalfatigue in my eBook catalogue on my website. $5 each. https://www.janellapurcell.com/shop/

09.01.2022 #resilience matters.

07.01.2022 #transgenerational trauma is not something we talk about over dinner. But...maybe it’s time we did. It’s very real and very painful and affects most of our lives. I’ve touched on this subject in my latest book #your40daytranaformation and am so deeply fascinated by it that I’m writing my next book on this immensely interesting and powerful subject. ... ‘The Red Thread’ - the chord of trans-generational trauma - is passed from mother to daughter, and on it goes - until someone has 4th stage endometriosis with their first bleed at 12yo. WTF! Or is completely terrified about child birth and /or mothering - to the point of creating fertility issues. See? Sooooo interesting! Science is catching up to the #ancientwisdom around #transgenerationaltrauma which makes this work even more wonderful now that we have modern technology backing up what the ancients knew, acknowledged and worked with for tens of thousands of years. And we think we’re the smart ones. #innerchild #7generations forward and back #iwannabefreetobeme #theredthread

04.01.2022 Brekky? Brunch? Dinner? To transform this very yummy thing from a thought into your belly in a flash - this is what you do. Have some of my #tamariseeds made, buy a packet of @donacholita organic blue corn #tortillas then fry an egg, and chop up something green like #spinach or #kale or #parsley #coriander #babyspinach then pile it on - this one has #avocado spread on first. Talk about yummy and lots of protein, #fibre #love #magnesium #iron #omega3fattyacids #calcium I’m thrilled to have moved to about 5 mins from @donacholita where you can buy their fresh and warm tortillas and corn chips directly from them. Thrilled! #janellasfood

04.01.2022 Hi! I’ve been absent yes. That’s coz I’ve been moving house/rural properties - and dealing with life at the same time, as is needed. I think it should be mandatory to have a 2 week break from everything apart from the task at hand when moving house. For #adrenalhealth at least. I moved to an area (close by) with no 3g or 4g. I’m pretty happy about that but it does make communicating slightly more difficult. Internet and the ol’ landline now connected so it’s business as u...sual for consults with me. I unpacked my books and bed first. Priorities right? I’ve moved into a much smaller house, on 7 acres along a 300m creek - so boxes of #nonessential books and stuff are under the house. For now! I have big plans for this property - I’ll share that news soon. I think you’re going to be very happy! I am! It’s been lifetimes in the making and now we’re so close! #janellasretreats #janellasplace

03.01.2022 An excerpt form my latest book #your40daytransformation The state of our health is as much about processing our emotions as it is the state of our physical digestion. Anyone freaked out in #2020 and living with less than good health? #y40dt #bodymindconnection

03.01.2022 I posted this right in the middle of my own #adrenalcollapse in 2014. Wow that was an intense few years. To put it lightly. 6 years later my book about that period is now a best seller - and I reckon that’s because so many people are experiencing the same thing I did - but don’t have a name, diagnosis or any idea what’s going on. Besides knowing you feel really terrible amd can’t imagine ever being well again. In this book I’ve written about the main conditions and way of be...-ing affecting our health and consequently our quality of life in the 21st century. Part memoir, part health manual, part reset - with over 100 recipes to help get you back on track. #your40daytransformation You’ll find my books on my website, #booktopia #amazonbooks #bigw #dymocks and in most independent book shops. #rumiquotes

02.01.2022 My summer alcoholic drink of choice. Vodka, coconut water and a sphere -shaped ice cube with a slice of orange. It’s really good and no added sugar! The coconut water is especially hydrating so that’s helpful when having alcohol. This lovely Crystal glass was bought for 5 quid in 1948. It’s was passed down to my father from an old friend of his many years ago, and Dad gave it to me last year. It’s a piece of beauty and history. #summerinthehinterland #healthyandyummyoptions

02.01.2022 Nothing exciting in the fridge? How ‘bout this! Leftover veggies are handy - roasted, steamed, stir fried or raw. Today I warmed up the steamed broccoli from last night in my cast iron pan - with a little olive oil, garlic and salt. I took it out then poured in 2 beaten eggs. Then placed the broccoli over half of the eggs with some red onion and a little grating of #pecorino (sheep’s cheese is much easier to digest btw). Topped it with fermented tomato salsa and a little side of #dijonmustard and @ceres.foods aioli (trying it out for the first time). Finished with #hempseeds #10minutemeals #janellasrecipes #foodasmedicineeveryday #goodgutfood

01.01.2022 Anxiety often emerges when we feel the call to create, then doubt ourselves. This confusion sets us up for physical, mental, spiritual and emotional stress. And that means symptoms of dis-ease are close behind. #creativitymatters #justdoit #trustyourself #listentoyourbody #nomorefear

01.01.2022 Otherwise the pain and dark cycle just keeps on a-going. A peaceful, free life is worth more to me than winning. Plus, how can there be any winners when there are so many casualties? A peaceful internal world makes for a blissful life; not the other way around. Work to make friends with your 60,000+ (mostly repetitive and negative) thoughts a day. Say ‘hi there’ to them then watch them drift away. Rinse and repeat. #sovereigntymeans #cortisolcontrol #mindkarma
