Hello everyone, I am Lita.

 

Lita is Raw, blossomed with the will to share with you all my passion for raw food, yoga and a vegan lifestyle. When I was 17, I have discovered yoga and it wasn't long until I was in love with it. That way of life has made me a vegetarian. Three years ago, I became vegan and this year, the year I've completed 3 decades, I have decided to try a Raw Vegan diet. Being Vegan means choosing a compassionate route to our lives, one the that prioritises the idea of one as a part of a whole. So I decided to take the next step, enhancing even further the benefits of eating clean, taking care of my body and spirit, healing through food. Taking care of our inner selves is the first step to take care of the ones around us. A new way of relating with what we eat, where we can unleash our creativity as well.  Raw diet often means zero cooking time, we just have to cut, blend and play! My favourite part is putting everything together on the plate, blending textures, colours and flavours. I just love it! It's also about taking control. You organise your shopping list and daily meals, in a way that is very aware of your calories and nutrients, so that you actually get to know exactly what you need, and when you need it, something that is often dismissed in a "traditional" diet. In a Raw diet, we eat food as it is or heated bellow 40-49C (104-120F), because high temperatures deteriorate the good enzymes of the food, so by eating uncooked you are keeping their natural healing properties. In this blog, I’ll talk about this and other things by sharing my recipes, and also share my passion for yoga. I hope to inspire you to take control of your body and spirit. #bodyandsoulfirst
