Where it begins...

So, I have been looking forward to teaching my first class since having baby no. three for some time now.
And today was the day. I was very excited, nervous and a little rusty, I must say but I enjoyed every moment of it.

The turn out was fantastic. Eight wonderful bodylicious Ladies being mindful, moving through postures beautifully and breathing deeply for some well deserved R&R.

The ones that know me well, are aware that I loooove food. 
Good, healthy, highly nutritious food that tastes yum.
So for a little post Yoga Class treat, I made these...

RAW CHOCOLATE ENERGY BALLS

Ingredients:
3 cups soaked dates
2 cups soaked almonds
1/2 cup coconut oil melted
4 Tablespoons raw cocoa

Cocoa or shredded coconut to roll 

place dates and almonds in your blender and blend/pulse. Add the melted coconut oil as you need. the consistency should be fairly thick but manageable for your blender.
(At this point, you could leave it and just roll them into balls or shape into bars if you prefer them without cocoa.)
Add the cocoa and bland some more or mix in by hand.
Roll into balls and roll them in the shredded coconut or cocoa powder.

Place in fridge for a few hours.

Enjoy!!!
