WELLNESS TIP
FROM KEEGAN WOOD

Meditation can often seem intimidating, unapproachable, and intangible. The key is to find an approach that is natural. Instead of intending to accomplish either a state of mind or physical relaxation, one should enter the meditation with the intent of becoming aware. Whether one’s current mental state is one of jealousy, stress, anger, or anticipation, the goal is complete awareness and acceptance of that experience. It is the resistance of our current state that causes much of the stress that drains our energy and results in pathology in our body. This does not need to be difficult: 5-10 minutes a day can drastically change one’s health.

FEATURED RECIPE: RICE PUDDING BY BIANCA REYES

In many cultures, rice pudding is eaten for breakfast or dessert. This interesting dish is completely customizable to your household’s favorite spices, dried fruits, and nuts! Classic spices include cinnamon, allspice, and clove. However, you can also customize this dish to your Ayurvedic needs by subbing the milk, spices, and dried fruits to your specific prakruti.

3/4 cup rice
1 1/2 cups water
2 cups vanilla almond milk
1/3 cup sugar
dash salt
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1 teaspoon vanilla

Directions:
1. Combine rice and water together in a large pot and bring to a boil. Once the rice is boiled, set to low and let simmer with a lid on until the rice soaks up all the water.

2. Add milk, sugar, salt, vanilla and allspice to the rice. Stir and set stovetop to medium low. Stir occasionally, and cook for 10-20 minutes, until the consistency is thicker.

Serve warm right from the pot. Raisins and other add ins like nuts would also be good in this recipe. Enjoy!
