Here's a simple recipe for you:

Golden Almond Mylk Turmeric Latte

Ingredients:

1. 2 cups unsweetened almond milk

2. 1 tsp turmeric powder (or a 1-inch piece of fresh turmeric, peeled and finely grated)

3. 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon (or a small stick of cinnamon if you prefer)

4. 1/4 tsp ground ginger (or a 1/2-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and finely grated)

5. A pinch of black pepper (helps with absorption of curcumin from turmeric)

6. 1 tbsp maple syrup or honey (adjust according to your taste)

7. 1 tsp coconut oil or ghee (optional, but adds a lovely creaminess and additional health benefits)

Instructions:

1. Combine Ingredients: In a saucepan, combine almond milk, turmeric, cinnamon, ginger, black pepper, and the coconut oil or ghee (if using).

2. Warm and Simmer: Heat the mixture over medium heat until it's warm but not boiling, stirring frequently to prevent the milk from scalding.

3. Sweeten: Once heated, remove from heat and stir in maple syrup or honey. Adjust the sweetness to your liking.

4. Blend (Optional): For an extra frothy latte, transfer the warmed mixture to a blender and blend on high for a minute until frothy. This step is optional, but it gives a nice frothy consistency to the drink.

5. Serve: Pour the golden milk into mugs, sprinkle a little extra cinnamon or turmeric on top for garnish if desired, and enjoy!

As the Thanksgiving weekend approaches in Canada, I wanted to take a moment for us all to reflect on the importance of gratitude and self-care in our journey as yoga practitioners.

This time of year is not only about turkey feasts and fun with family and friends, but it's also an opportunity for us to tap into the true spirit of thanks and appreciation for what yoga brings into our lives. So, let's pause, breathe, and share our thoughts on how this beautiful practice has influenced our overall wellness.

What are you most grateful for when it comes to your yoga journey? Has yoga helped transform your health, both physically and mentally? Have any particular teachings or mantras had a significant impact on your daily life outside the mat?

The intention behind this conversation is to create a space where we can collectively celebrate the power of yoga in cultivating calmness, inspiration, relaxation, motivation, and encouragement within ourselves.

Feel free to share your personal reflections, stories of growth, or any tips you've learned along the way that have enhanced your practice as either a yoga student or a teacher. We all have something unique to contribute!

Let's use this thread as an uplifting reminder of why we choose to embrace yoga in our lives while fostering connection with fellow practitioners who understand its profound effects.
