Autumn breakfast of my dreams 🍂: Salted caramel nicecream with extra crunchy caramelized nuts, choc drops & spiced poached pears. 🍐 Who wants a spoonful? 🥄 ⁣ ⁣ 𝐶𝐴𝑅𝐴𝑀𝐸𝐿𝐼𝑍𝐸𝐷 𝑁𝑈𝑇𝑆:⁣ - 70g mixed nuts (I used pecans, walnuts and almonds)⁣ - 30g maple syrup⁣ - ½ tsp coconut oil⁣ To make them: Place all ingredients in a small frying pan. On medium heat, fry for 5-10 minutes, stirring consistently. Place on a non-stick baking sheet to dry. That’s it! For a variation, you could add some spices like cinnamon, cardamom or even chilli powder. ⁣ ⁣ The recipe for salted caramel #nicecream is on my blog. The direct link is in my story today 📲 and in my bio. ⁣ ⁣ 𝑃𝑂𝐴𝐶𝐻𝐸𝐷 𝑃𝐸𝐴𝑅𝑆:⁣ Halved pears, cooked for 30-40 minutes in chai tea. Add extra spices if you like. Enjoy! ♥️⁣ ⁣ __⁣ ⁣ Wer hat Lust auf Karamelleis mit warmen pochierten Birnen und extra-knusprigen, karamellisierten Nüssen? ♥️⁣ ⁣ Das Rezept für Karamell-Nicecream ist auf meinem Blog (Link in der Story oder auf meinem Profil). Die Birnen habe ich einfach halbiert und für 30-40 Minuten in Chai-Tee gekocht. Nüsse karamellisiere ich in der Pfanne auf mittlerer Hitze mit etwas Ahornsirup, ½ TL Kokosöl und Gewürzen, z.B. Zimt und Kardamom. Viel Spaß beim Nachmachen!😋 (at Berlin, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHQEGLPpObC/?igshid=10n1rejc88maf

Time for Compassion

Now is a good time to practice compassion. If you are hurting a lot or a little, you can practice compassion for yourself. If somebody you love is hurting, you can practice compassion for them. If somebody you don’t like is hurting, you can challenge yourself to practice compassion for them. If you can imagine all the suffering in the world, you can practice compassion for the world. When you practice compassion for the world, you complete the circle and practice for yourself again.

If you are suffering right now, now is a good time to practice with your suffering. If you are not suffering right now, now is a good time to practice connecting with your wider perspective, your wisdom, that part of you that can see beyond suffering. Whenever you take time to practice compassion, you build your capacity and skill for practice. If you can think of your suffering as part of the world’s suffering you gain perspective on both. If you are hurting a lot, imagine that multiplied by all the people in the world going through similar or vastly different experiences of physical, mental and emotional pain. Your experience connects you and gives you insight into all of their experiences. As you imagine all those other people feeling just as you do, you can wish for them to find peace and happiness in their lives. That wish or hope will bring a touch of peace to your life. In that way practicing compassion for others becomes a compassionate action for yourself again completing the circle.

When you imagine the world’s suffering, it can be overwhelming. When you feel your own suffering it can be overwhelming. Remembering that it is time for compassion can help, now. When it seems like there is nothing you can do, focus on being right where you are and opening yourself to compassion. Notice that you would rather not suffer. Notice that you don’t want others to suffer. That is the essence of compassion and noticing is the beginning of helping. When you practice being open to compassion and practicing compassion you will see it everywhere but also notice when it is absent which helps too. When you notice the absence of compassion, compassion appears.

The time to practice is now, because it is always now. No matter how we feel, we all benefit from small and large acts of compassion. The world and you need compassion. Practice now.

Simple lunch idea: mushroom avocado toasts 🙌🏼 I had these twice last week. 🤤⁣ ⁣ Do you want the other one? 🙋🏻‍♀️⁣ ⁣ I’m all about simple meals lately and making these takes less than 15 minutes. 😇⁣ ⁣ 𝐻 𝑂 𝑊 𝑇 𝑂:⁣ Fry 1 diced onion and about 200g mushrooms, then add sliced fresh garlic, herbs, salt & pepper and continue frying until the mushrooms are tender. Serve on toasted (pure whole grain) bread with mashed avocado, lemon juice & black cumin. 👌🏼🤤⁣ ⁣ ___⁣ ⁣ Liebe zur Zeit einfache Gerichte, so wie Pilz-Avocado-Toasts. Würdet ihr das zweite Toast essen? 🙋🏻‍♀️⁣ ⁣ 𝑅 𝐸 𝑍 𝐸 𝑃 𝑇:⁣ Einfach 1 gehackte Zwiebel zusammen mit 200g Champignons anbraten, frischen Knoblauch, Kräuter, Salz und Pfeffer hinzufügen. Wenn die Pilze schön weich sind, auf getoastetem Vollkornbrot servieren. Unter den Pilzen etwas zerdrückte Avocado mit Zitronensaft verteilen, schwarzen Kümmel darüberstreuen. Fertig. 😋 (at Berlin, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHXw5FtJ53U/?igshid=1eb2ngb51qnfb
