The Healing Power of Fire

How are you doing? As we approach the darkest months when we feel we need to hibernate by wrapping up in a blanket and having a hot drink by the open fire take comfort in the fact that there is some evidence to support that this is a evolutionary adaptation. The research also goes to demonstrate that sitting in front of an open fire or hearing the distinctive crackle of fire noise actually reduces your blood pressure and makes you feel more connected socially with others. Have a go and see how you feel.

To boost that" feel good hibernation" have some mood boosting winter foods such as salmon, berries, green leafy vegetables, eggs, cottage cheese, yoghurt, rich warming stews( grass fed meat with plenty of vegetables), a square of dark chocolate, pumpkin seeds or use that mood boosting spice saffron.

Saffron milk

Heat a few strands of saffron in 1 cup of milk or water. Sweeten this drink with local honey and enjoy it once a day.
