Almond Honey




As I stepped out this morning at 6am for my Yoga class, I could feel a cool breeze and a slight nip in the air. I think we are finally approaching the so called Mumbai winter where late nights and early mornings are pleasant.

As the weather cools one feels more energetic, hungry and in the mood for more outdoor activities. But all of these need us to be fit and strong, eating a nourishing and healthy diet.

I'd like to share a very simple, age-old family practice which will help to keep you healthy. My mother introduced this to us as children and it has continued to become a practice followed every winter.

Fill a glass jar to 2/3 level with almonds and fill it up with honey. Let the almond soak in the honey and every morning with your breakfast have a tablespoon of the almonds and honey (5 - 6 almonds). It's delicous, easy to eat and great for your system. I am getting my jar ready today. Will you too?
