The other day I came across this Greener Planet wine in the shop and thought I’d give it a go. I have to say, I don’t drink very much or particularly very often, but once in a while I do enjoy a nice glass (or three) of red wine.

Clean up your act Zara!
Those who know me know that I’m big on being ethical and doing my best to take care of the environment and myself so you’ll understand fully that I’m horrified to hear that Zara are totally silent when it comes to cleaning up their act in terms of using so many chemicals in their clothing.

Rainy day shoes
What is with the weather? It’s not remotely cold and yet the rain is seriously upon us at the moment. It’s not every moment of every day, it comes in fits and starts, just enough to make you question your wardrobe on a near constant basis. If you’re a lover of jeans and walking trainers then you’ll be wondering what all the fuss is about, however for those of us that enjoy shoes and wearing more, shall we say, creative clothing then you’ll know exactly what I mean when I say ‘I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO WEAR!?’.

Argyll & Bute Refute
UPDATE – Since writing this post Martha has been allowed to take photos and write her blog properly again. Hooray!
Yesterday Argyll & Bute Council put a stop to a blog as we know it called NeverSeconds. The blog was set up and run by a 9 year old girl, Martha Payne and was ‘One primary school pupil’s daily dose of school dinners’, a site where Martha posted photos of her school dinners and rated them. The blog started in April and within only a few weeks she had a million viewers! She’s had support from all manner of publications including The Times, Telegraph and the Daily Mail and unsurprisingly and very appropriately Jamie Oliver was also a fan. Continue reading
John’s the Master!
I’ve never really had many ‘I can’t live without that’ products so I’ve decided that those I do have I should really share since I am possibly one of the fussiest people on the planet.
Today it’s Argan Oil, but not just any Argan Oil, it’s John Masters Organic Argan Oil (said in a very Marks & Spencerish voice).

Yoga Matters!
As a yoga teacher I am forever searching for the best products and companies out there and there is one company that has never failed to please. Yoga Matters are a UK based company and they are entirely run by fellow yogis. They source some amazing products and are generally a great bunch of people!

Earth Hour 2010!
On Saturday 27th March, Earth Hour will take place for the 3rd time. Earth Hour began in 2007 in Sydney and the event has grown year on year with more countries and people taking part so let’s try and make 2010 the biggest yet! Please pledge your support and show your love for the planet by switching your lights off for 1 hours at 8.30pm on Saturday 27th!
In fact why not add some Yoga to your Earth Hour and spend an hour focusing on the 5th limb of yoga, pratyahara; withdrawal of the senses. With no lights and no sound why not treat yourself to a nice long meditation and a much needed savasana!
For more information click here to see the Earth Hour website.
Wishing you lightness within the dark.
