What are the eight foundations of Yoga? In the West we often focus on Asana, which is one of the eight foundations of yoga. Meaning different postures and poses. However there is a lot more to yoga then meets the eye. So while it's all well and good scowling through Instagram at impressive body poses and silhouettes, yoga is not a superficial hobby, in fact it's quite the opposite, it has depth and focuses on your mental and spiritual growth. More people across the world are acknowledging the benefits yoga has on their wellbeing and how this can make a positive impact on their mental and physical strength, therefore creating a better environment for all.

So if your thinking about making your own, it's really worth going to a farmers market at the right time of year or grow some berries in your back garden (we all went blueberry picking as children, right? Well it's time to start that past time again). The best smoothie's are always made with fresh fruit and produce (nuts, coconut chips and
