Featured Foodies - So Beautifully Raw, Sam Murphy

By So Beautifully Raw

"Aside from eating a plant based diet, I truly believe in the power of positive ‘self-talk’ – I’m definitely not perfect and easily fall into the habits of self-criticism, negative belief systems and other downfalls of having a busy & creative human brain, but I notice that every time I begin to become more present, more aware and in-charge of my inner-dialogue I notice a huge shift in not only the way I view myself & my body, but the way I feel."

Featured Foodie - The Fit Foodie, Sally O'Neil

By Sally O'Neil

"I don’t really have rules around food, but my general approach is a lot of fresh, whole foods. Most days I eat a lot of lean protein and veggies, and plenty of healthy fats. I think I devour at least 5 avocados a week! For something extra yummy I love protein balls, dark chocolate or banana ice-cream."

Featured Foodie - A Conscious Collection, Brooke Meredith

By Brooke Meredith

"I grew up in rural Victoria, where good food was a big part of our family life. It was the center of all gatherings. From as long as I can remember I had always been in the kitchen helping mum and dad cook and prepare food, so I am extremely grateful to have learnt the fundamentals of cooking from a very young age."

Featured Foodie - To Her Core, Dearna

By Dearna, To Her Core

"As I get older, I definitely feel I am more comfortable in my choices and less strict than I used to be – that said I do try eat ‘clean’ (ie minimally processed) as much as possible, with lots of vegetables. I also try to buy as much locally sourced food as possible these days, I rarely shop at the supermarket and instead tend to buy my veggies from the local market, and we get a veggie box delivered once a fortnight too."

A Healthy Easter – The Chocolate Alternative

By Loving Earth

Easter is traditionally associated with religious holidays and rebirth, with the egg and the rabbit being symbols of fertility in pre-Christian European religions. Whilst this is where the modern celebration comes from, we all know that there's only one thing on kids' minds when this time of year rolls around...CHOCOLATE, and lots of it!

A Day In A Plate: Matcha Maiden

By Sarah Holloway, Matcha Maiden

"I am that embarrassingly devout foodie who is already planning lunch and dinner while still halfway through breakfast. My whole day is structured around meal times and I’m always counting down to the next socially acceptable time to eat. It completely escapes me how anyone can ever “forget to eat”, especially because I have less personality than a door handle when I haven’t eaten in a few hours."

Featured Foodie: Holly Shelley - Paradise Pantry

By Holly, Paradise Pantry

"I always have to have a good walk and stretching session everyday. Plenty of water and real homemade food otherwise I get grumpy. I prioritise a bit of down time in my day, whether it be taking photos, cooking something special, reading my favourite magazines, just sitting and listening to music or cuddling my puppy Blaze. You end up happier and more productive for the rest of the day when you do."

Featured Foodie: Ashley Alexander - Gather & Feast

By Ashley Alexander

"I spent a lot of my early years learning in the kitchen. Mum enjoyed teaching my brother, sister and I to cook from a young age, preparing three course meals for dinner parties by the time we were 12 (well played Mum, well played). I am very thankful for all the valuable time spent and the lessons we learnt. Mum always taught us to cook using natural and healthy ingredients and instilled in us the value of whole and organic foods. (Vegan ice­cream for the win!) Thanks Mum!"

Featured Foodies: Kathie & Jade - Panaceas Pantry

By Loving Earth

"I moved out of home at 17, not really knowing anything about cooking and without much knowledge on nutrition and unsurprisingly I quickly started to create some pretty bad eating habits and soon after my body started to suffer. When I made the connection that whatever I put into my body directly affected me so much, and thankfully after years of living with Jade who was studying nutrition at the time, I started to take an interest in my health."

A Day In A Plate: Lilian Dikmans - Real Food Healthy Body

By Lilian Dikmans

I make time to eat well because I like to feel good. Eating real, unprocessed foods with plenty of vegetables keeps me full of energy and functioning at my best. I drink water throughout the day in between my meals and I always make room for some healthy treats because I don’t believe in deprivation!
