Just had lunch there the other day and had the Tofu Kabob – organic firm tofu cubes and portabella mushrooms encased in a delicious sauce featuring roasted red peppers, pomegranate molasses, roasted walnuts and cumin over a bed of rice.  So delish!

Check it out for Organic, Fresh Mediterrenean and Middle Eastern Food.

If you haven’t tried Lululemon, you’re missing some great workout/run around gear in your fitness wardrobe!

Four Truffles is a woman owned, women-run skin care brand created by women, for women and their families.   We believe that women are born with an innate sense of family, community and unity.  We strive to tie those elements together to help unify the world from the inside out – with the bonds of love, hope, faith and eternity.

Four Truffles works directly with women-owned Argan Forest collectives in Morocco and Shea processing collectives in western Africa to get the best ingredients possible while simultaneously helping improve the social and economic status of rural women.  All our products are natural, organic, 100% vegetarian, paraben free, dermatologist tested, never tested on animals, hypoallergenic, ideal for sensitive skin, made in U.S.A, eco-centric, contain indigenous ingredients that support women4women.

Since hope is one of the ‘four truffles’ it is only fitting that we chose this powerful organization that has brought hope for the sick, hope for the dying, hope for orphans, hope for widows, hope for gang members, hope for the young, and hope for the elderly with a model of community transformation that works!

Mission: To build bridges into the lives of those who are suffering in order to create long‐term, self‐sustaining solutions to the deep problems of our world.

Four Truffles specifically focuses our attention and donations on two aspects of their honorable hands-on work:

Micro-Enterprise solutions for women:

Bridges of Hope provides training and seed money for women of Philippi, Lower Crossroads and Sweet Home Africa to start their own sewing, knitting and beading businesses as a means of self-support for them and their families.

Starting in the fall, some of these very women will begin sewing our Wooden Truffle Jar Passion Pouches so your Four Truffles purchases will doubly impact the success of their business and future!

Schooling for children at the Bridges Academy:

A boarding school for AIDS orphans that offers full-time care, feeding, educational and medical needs of 50 children.

Bridges of Hope recently received an award from the Western Cape Education Dept earlier this year, commending them for having a 100% graduation rate (which is very rare in South Africa).

Bridges of Hope shares our belief that it is possible for individuals who live in extremely dire conditions to find hope—to dream about and actually change their future.  The Four Truffles brand was built on this philosophy, as was this nonprofit organization.  We strive to serve as a circle of goodness and empowerment for women and children around the world and our partnership with Bridges of Hope helps action our vision.

How can you help?  Purchase any 6.2oz Body Butter and we donate $4 or visit Bridges of Hope to donate directly.  The Bridges of Hope website is regularly updated with stories of hope and transformation, and will introduce you to ways that you can offer hope and bring about transformation to individuals around the world.

The path to Looking Good and Feeling Good is a well balanced healthy lifestyle, which includes changing the way you think about what you eat, drink and what you do with what you put inside your body.  While we’ve talked about secrets to healthy skin by way of beauty products and regimen, I’d like to discuss fitness and Yoga as I’m now looking into incorporating Yoga into my weekly routine.

While there are many reasons why Yoga is good for you, the general consensus I’ve heard from peers, medical doctors and naturapaths is that it’s therapeutic.   I’ve been having back pains and recently went through a series of doctor check ups to make sure all vitals are working properly.  Luckily they are, but I did learn how important it is to make sure I see the doctor, especially the OB/GYN for preventive measures as breast and ovarian cancer are so common nowadays for many women.   What it all boils down to is that I need to get back in shape, hence one of the things on my list is to give Yoga a try.

I’ll be checking out some yoga classes from the South Bay all the way to Santa Monica.  I discovered Yoga Earth who seems to be a good resource and community for all things Yoga.  They recently shared an article from the Richmond County Daily Journal about “Study: Quality of life improves for cancer patients who practice yoga” I found this article interesting especially for women who are going through breast cancer.  Yoga in this instance helped a woman going through radiation treatment to relax and sleep.

I would love to hear your comments and feedback about your thoughts and experiences with Yoga!

Cheers to Looking Good, Feeling Good and Doing Good!
