I’ve been quiet over here.  I’v been immersing myself in the Mondo Beyondo experience and feeling a tad overwhelmed by my own dreams. It’s okay though. I feel I am growing.  Trying to let go of unwanted baggage and opening myself up to the unknown.   Scary, but at the same time very exciting. I am learning so much in this e-course, mostly about myself and how to manage my fears, my anxiety, my critical voice.  It’s everything I expected and so much more.

I’m also reading my new books having a hard time focusing on much else.  My cold house (my husband will laugh- he’s warm, I’m cold) is making me sluggish, slow to move. I think I inherited a cold gene. I just want to sit with a book and my layers and layers of clothes–not moving–which is exactly what I SHOULDn’t be doing.  But, I’m keeping warm with my tea and some deeply warming soup.  Here is the recipe in case you need some warming up too.

Handful of dried wild mushrooms (Trader Joe’s has a great mix)
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped,
1 inch of peeled ginger root
1 tbsp mellow yellow Miso
1 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
1 tsp onion powder
Udon noodles
1 handful of baby spinach leaves

Bring 4 cups water to a boil, add everything except noodles and spinach. Turn heat down to simmer, add noodles. Simmer for 8-12 minutes testing noodles for doneness. Remove ginger piece and add one handful of spinach. Simmer for 1 more minute. Serve & enjoy.
