Celebrate Mother’s Day with some healthy indulgence!

Becca Crawford

 

Motherhood.

For me, it has been the most incredibly rewarding journey. And to be honest, not without its hardships either. My children are my greatest teachers. They remind me on a minute to minute basis how much I still need to grow as a mother and as a person. I probably wouldn’t have changed careers had it not been for them and they provide me with constant inspiration in both my personal and professional life. My children bring up in me the full gamut of emotions – from sheer wonderment, to unconditional love to utter exasperation. It wasn’t until I became a mother that I truly understood that a love so pure and intense even existed, nor truly appreciated the sacrifices that my own mother had made to raise me.


To my own mother, and to all my fellow mothers out there: I salute you. I see first hand through my health coaching sessions, cooking classes and from meeting and talking to you every day at Broth Bar & Larder just how hard you are working for the health of your family. I see the effort you put into making nourishing meals and the hurdles that you are overcoming in the pursuit of providing your children with the best start in life. I am in awe of you and I want each and every one of you to take a moment to reflect on all that you do, to appreciate your worth and to take a little time out on Mother’s Day to savour all of the delights showered your way no matter how great or small.

To celebrate and honour the mothers in our lives and the incredible role they play, we have crafted something truly special this year. An organic muesli of the highest quality. We started with our organic hand-crafted muesli (to read why our muesli is so unique and of the highest quality that you will find in Australia, click here). We then infused it with Ovvio Organics rose petals and pieces of our signature maple-sweetened raw dark chocolate for the ultimate healthy indulgence.  

The impetus for creating this muesli came from my own mother a few years back who asked for something that would provide nourishment and delight rather than “dust collecting crap that I don’t need or want” (that’s the English translation of the Greek version!). So I put together something that I as a mother would love to receive. Organic artisan wholefood that will nourish, satisfy, and delight! This muesli is bound to entice even the fussiest of yummy mummies, and those who need or want for nothing.

Retailing at $25.50/300g, we are selling a very limited quantity only. These make a beautiful gift in and of themselves or as an inclusion in a hamper as part of a larger gift. For ideas on what to include in a Mother’s Day hamper, I can suggest a bottle of Toscana cold pressed extra virgin olive oil which we sell at Broth Bar & Larder, a packet of our activated macadamia nuts, our fruit & nut raw dark chocolate,  our macadamia nut sokolata and/or our choc orange bliss balls.  My friendly staff and I are more than happy to help you construct a hamper if you bring in the box for us to fill. 

As our Mother’s Day muesli contains our pure chocolate, it does require refrigeration.  Purchase prior to Mother’s Day (13 May 2017) from our retail store Broth Bar & Larder or if you prefer to have a packet couriered to you for an additional shipping fee please pre-pay and order on 0421 786 009 or orders@staraniseorgnic.com in advance.

I will leave you with some of my favourite quotes on motherhood. I hope these resonate with you as much as they do with me.

Enjoy uplifting yoga flows followed by meditation led by Sabey Yoga. And of course connect with other like-minded women to enjoy conversations where nothing is off limits. 

I will be speaking at this brunch about the benefits of bone broth - the elixir of health - and my health and wellness paradigm (nutrients vs toxins) to help you on your wellness journey. I would love for you to join me.

The Perfect Foot Massage

Becca Crawford

I am excited to announce the “Perfect Foot Massage” workshop to be run by Bruce Scott (aka The Body Magician) on Wednesday 22 November 2017. 

Bruce Scott is a healer and massage master. He is also a highly accomplished martial artist, yoga teacher and qigong practitioner. His style of massage is deeply rooted in the traditional massage style of Japan- where he lived and studied for a number of years. Bruce has built a reputation of being a unique master in his field of body and energy work. I have been a client of Bruce for nearly 2 years and no one can transcend me into a parasympathetic state as quickly and deeply as Bruce.  He reads his clients like a book and has a gift to give people exactly what they need, when they need it. 

Bruce starts off his body work sessions with his clients with the most tantalising foot massage using the highest quality therapeutic grade organic essential oils. As he was working his magic into my feet and my whole body began to melt like butter, the idea popped into our heads to run the perfect foot massage workshop. So here we are!!

 Fewer things transcend us into a state of deep and blissful relaxation as a foot massage. Bruce believes that anyone can learn to give an amazing massage. 


IN THIS WORKSHOP BRUCE WILL TEACH YOU:

  • The principles of touch
  • 3 principles that once understood will transform any massage into a beautiful experience for both the giver and receiver
  • A selection of simple massage techniques that will give you a framework from which you can tap into your intuition 
  • How to choose the best essential oils to massage with. I will talk briefly about the Young Living therapeutic grade essential oils and why they are our oils of first choice. 

If you are a couple, the perfect foot massage workshop is undoubtedly the perfect date night. If you come alone we will partner you up with a potential dashing fox or babe. I am really looking forward to this workshop and I hope to see you there…especially if you are a dashing silver fox as I’ll be fronting up alone ;-)


COST IS $50 PER PERSON Or $90 per couple and includes:

  • Theory discussion on foot massage
  • Hands-on (excuse the pun) experience
  • Opportunity to ask questions 
  • Opportunity to smell, use, learn about and purchase Young Living essential oils
  • Opportunity to meet new people and try out new things 

THIS WORKSHOP IS IDEAL FOR:

  • Couples who want to do something special together and to deepen their connection 
  • Those who want to learn yet another way to calm their nervous system and to transcend into a parasympathetic state (or to learn how to do this for their loved ones at home – your family and friends will love you for it!)
  • Those who are interested in learning how to perfect a foot massage in their professional work
  • Those who want to try new things, feel awesome and meet new people (whether you come alone or as a couple)!
