Inspiratie

Een belangrijke oproep voor deze tijd, door Robin Wall Kimmerer
Een belangrijke diepte in met Zach Bush en Charles Eisenstein

Out now!

The Plant Pharmacy – koken met de kracht van de natuur – is een verhaal dat zo uit mijn hart kwam rollen, een epistel dat mijn liefde voor deze schitterende aarde weerspiegelt en een poging om onze groene bondgenoten in de spotlight te zetten die ze verdienen.

Health is the belief that you are actually whole and that, if you fall ill, you can become whole again.

And whole can only mean relationship. Because we are not only of ourselves. We are an amalgamation of many.

Mother Earth provides for that wholeness. She offers us abundance with the plant queendom in the form of oxygen, all kinds of building blocks, food, medicine and companionship. She offers us friendship and community with a rich variety of species. She offers us life through water. And she offers us answers to social questions. We need only observe and listen to know what those answers are.

So much that she gives. How can we not give back. Because of gratitude, but also because only through the act of reciprocity do we become resilient again, to speak with the words of the wonderful Robin 'Braiding Sweetgrass' Wall Kimmerer. In my link in bio I added some inspiration for living in this day and age by this amazing woman.

So today, I bow to her and to all the worlds she fuels, in which diversity is the fabric and love the thread that binds them together.

And then there it was; Elke dag feest/A feast ever

And then there it was; Elke dag feest/A feast every day, @maartjeborst her new cookbook.

Every book that I have had the pleasure of making with others or by myself is dear to me. Every book is special and means something unique to me. Maartje’s new book became the book that was in my heart and Maartje could create. Our division of tasks is wonderful. I’m not the best cook, don’t enjoy cooking and baking that much and for years felt I had to work in this field to put the deliciousness of plant-based kitchen on the map to inspire people to embrace the vegan lifestyle. However, when I met Maartje and experienced her cooking talent, I knew it was time to hand over the ladle and manifest my long-cherished wish of telling stories through the art of photography. And so we have been a wonderful duo for many years now.

For a long time, we had both been yearning to make a book that would fully embody the richness and festivity of the plant kitchen. Seasons would play a fundamental role in this. Because that is another love we share: the rhythm of the seasons. Maartje’s name began to buzz in the world, her talent was noticed by @kosmosuitgevers, and last year her first book Taart ende Koeck was published. The tremendous success of this divine baking book created the opportunity to finally make that long-awaited festive cookbook according to the seasons. Maartje went into the kitchen and I polished my lenses till shining, and during the spring of 2021 I had the privilege of capturing her creations while angels were peeing over my tongue (my mother’s famous expression for how incredibly delicious something is) ;-).

With every image I shot and every bite I took, I began to realise that this would probably be the best representation of the gorgeousness of plant-powered cuisine that I had ever had the pleasure of working on. Meanwhile, Elke Dag Feest is a fact. It has become a cookbook in which Maartje’s talent shines through, in which the seasons speak through phenomenal flavours, and about which I can say that every day while making it was indeed a big feast.

Curious? Don’t wait any longer! You can find via link in bio.

May we unite our minds and hearts and step into th

May we unite our minds and hearts and step into the frequency of love, so that we can create space for everyone to flourish. I truly believe that this is medicine for this time. How to? Well for example, I just did a beautiful guided meditation in service of the turkey by the wonderful and metaphysical animal rights activist Jessica Renea.

With American Thanksgiving just around the corner, a holiday increasingly celebrated around the world, the turkey and many other animals fall victim to the choices of humankind.

But because we are a collection of elemental forces dancing to the laws of the Universe, we can send messages of love into the world and when we do that together, those messages will reach the hearts of many who might still be closed off to the beauty of life and support and help transcend the ones who are in need.

My undivided attention is what I can offer right now and if you have some space and time, and if you feel invited too, please join me in adding this guided meditation to your daily practice the coming week. Link in bio.

This beautiful prince lives a wonderful natural life @meliefanimalsanctuary.

This darling of a book has become an oldie. After

This darling of a book has become an oldie. After 7 delightful years, she will not be reprinted anymore. Young and shiny other books have rushed past her filled with new and insightful information about the amazing benefits of the plant kingdom. Books filled with good recipes, health wisdom and enjoyable stories.

For the past 15 years, I have had the privilege of creating books alone or with wonderful others. Those who know me know that I love to do this. Making books is a beautiful process, a creative journey and for me always a reflection of where I am at that moment.

Plant Power was a reaction to something that was happening in the world at that time. There was a craze to find an ideal weight, all kinds of diets were the talk of the town and we were bombarded with 'perfections'. I felt such an eagerness to respond. And I responded with Plant Power.

The other day I remembered what a great adventure making this book was, I was excited to write about my own personal food journey and how plants had brought the joy of eating back into my life. I have personally experienced over the past 20 years that when I let go of the collective rules of eating and health and eat what makes me happy and nourishes me, body weight is something that comes naturally in the way that suits me, not an average. A weight that can carry me, support me and keep me healthy and fit. It was not about a number on a scale or an imposed idea, but about ones own body type and honouring and supporting that type. I wrote this down in Plant Power, was supported by the dietary wisdom of @boschumacher and included vegan recipes by season.

I look at the book and feel gratitude. But it is also time to let go. Everything is always changing and even though I sometimes feel some resistance in the face of change, I trust the process and know there is value in its core.

I just put the last 30 copies in my webshop (link in bio) and added a nice discount. If you have had your eye on this book, now might be the time to get it ;-). You can use coupon code 'Plant Power' for another extra discount.

And thank you Yvonne Palsgraaf for the wonderful images filling this book.

Often I feel hesitant to write about specific medi

Often I feel hesitant to write about specific medicinal powers of species within the plant queendom. It is a realm that feels large, nuanced and magical to me. Any word I might write about the medicinal benefits of let's say Echinacea would be a shortcoming of her grand ism. What I have learned in my path as someone who eats plants, enjoys plants, works with plants, listens to these green entities and benefits from their medicinal qualities, is that their wisdom is found in the space between their parts.

In herbalism we learn that a plant is more than the sum of her parts, and I have found this to be true. It is not just the dance between the parts that makes the medicine, it is the space that the dance provides that makes her brilliance. It leaves me in awe when my friendship with a plant deepens, when it goes beyond the layers of her surface. The journey moves into that vast space of potential and slowly but surely a plant reveals an infinite amount of qualities, possibilities and diversity. Something I have found applies to all of the living, animate or inanimate. In these realms, whether it is animal, plant, mineral or our own inner world, to focus means to expand. To zoom in means to zoom out. What may seem clear and defined turns out to be a dynamic interplay of natural laws that listen to the rhythm of an infinite Universe.

So you see, how can I write about the medicinal benefits of Echinacea since it has become clear that she is so much more than being 'good for this or that'? But I can create an invitation to experience her, to experience the magic of all that surrounds us.

So that is what we have done. Together with Helen from @depeerdegaerdt and the talented @mariaindjeian, we've created a little something. A humble diary here on this little app that you can visit at @happiesthealthyfarm. Our posts are simple yet poetic observations that go beyond what you see at first glance. No high tech digital camera filtered pictures, but invitations into the realm of nuances, of the diversity of the more than human world. It is our love letter to Momma Earth, bringing us medicine every second of every day. I hope to meet you there 🌟🌍.

When nature does not take your breath away, but gives you breath, gives you inspiration.

Inspiration comes from the word inspire which means spirit or breath. To breathe.

What if our only task in life is to do just that. To breathe. To be inspired. To live. And in return all will live. All will breathe. Because once we find our place of truthfulness, our wholeness, we need not to change anything about ourselves or others. The world is perfect just as it is and we can just be, just as others can just be. This to me is a daily intention, this to me is veganism. The practice of letting be, of doing no harm to others, or myself and to see the magic, the fullness and beauty in all that is alive.

Thank you so much for all your wonderful birthday wishes yesterday and donations to @mymomsam. This truly is the biggest gift I could receive.

And thank you Hèlen and Scooby 🐶 for taking me on a wild adventure through a rough and lush piece of Dutch nature 🥰🌍🌿🙏🏼. Also the best birthday gift!
