Hi everyone, and welcome to this month's newsletter, we are delighted that you have signed up to receive our monthly offerings.

As we step into winter here, let it be your reminder to return to your heart, to return to your essence, to return to what brings you joy.

Last Friday, I hosted my first Women's Retreat - Return to Your Heart and it was an absolute pleasure to create space for all the beautiful women that showed up, that showed up to learn about the importance of mind, body, and heart connection and how when we return to our hearts with love, truth and purpose we become magical, we become aligned, and flow with abundance.  

Here at Vitalityandmore, my vision is to inspire you to do the inner work, to ground yourself, to fill your cup, to be open, to surrender, to have self-awareness, self-respect, self-care and ultimately love yourself like you are the only person on earth to love.  Retreat guest feedback has been so overwhelmingly beautiful, and I am happy to announce that this retreat will be offered again in September, so stay tuned for the dates and testimonials!     Hope that you will be joining me...

Do you press Pause?

How often do you Pause: is it through meditation, stillness, self-reflection, journalling?

How do you connect to your Heart?

When we are deeply and fully connected, we are able to let go of what isn't serving us and surrender into what is.

Are you in Flow? 

When you are in flow with yourself, with your heart, life flows with you and through you, you become magnetic and attract all that your heart desires.

How are you Nourishing your Heart?

Is it through joy, connection, wholefoods, fun, love, nature, movement, journalling? 

Remember it is YOUR job to return to your heart, no one or no-thing can do it for you, the more you are able to reflect and connect into your heart space the happier and healthier you become. 

So, make the time for you, make the time to return to your heart, it has all the answers you are seeking.

These Date Walnut & Cacao Protein Balls are a must for your winter snacking pantry...

Making these kinds of snacking treats always feel so wholesome and they are filled with wholefoods and only sweetened with the dates - they are #dairyfree and #eggfree and #plantbased and delicious.

Recipe for you to make & save:

2 cups pitted dates (pre-soaked to soften)

2 cups raw walnuts (organic)

1 cup shredded coconut (organic)

1 cup peanut butter (or almond)

1/4 cup chia seeds

1 cup raw cacao powder (3/4 into mixture & 1/4 plus a little extra for coating)

2 tbsp macca powder (optional)

2 tbsp protein collagen powder (organic - optional)

Simply blend all your ingredients in a blender until it's sticky and combined. Then grab tablespoon measurement and roll into balls. Place on a lined tray and then refrigerate to set for 10 min quickly (this part is messy; you may need to wear disposable gloves and make sure your hands are wet when making the balls).

Once they're firm, remove from fridge and coat in more cacao powder and then leave in refrigerator and take them out when ready to eat. Enjoy!
