Rainbow Kale Slaw

March 27, 2017June 18, 2017 - Ana Bella Leave a comment

When we become more mindful while we eat, we begin to notice our body’s cues for hunger or fullness and whether certain food agrees with us or not. For the past three years, I have been practicing mindfulness and therefore have become more aware of my body. I can now feel when a certain foodRead more

Kale Caesar Salad

August 14, 2015December 24, 2015 - Ana Bella Leave a comment

Caesar salad is my all-time favourite salad. I wanted to make this comfort food healthier so I tweaked a few things to make it gluten-free and dairy-free. Instead of croutons we have crispy chickpeas and instead of parmesan, I used nutritional yeast. To make it even healthier, I served it with some coconut water forRead more

33 — the number of the bus where my accident hap 33 — the number of the bus where my accident happened and has caused me pain and trauma for over 2 years. For awhile, everytime I saw that bus, anger would build up inside me. My counsellor adviced me to associate the number with something else. So I did. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I grew up Catholic and became a Christian at age 15. After the accident, I ran away from my faith and I lost myself. The only thing good I can associate with the number 33 was knowing that it was at that age that Jesus died for me - that I am loved and forgiven just as I am - anger, blemishes, shortcomings, failures and all. As I thought about this fact whenever I saw the bus, the anger within slowly diminished. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For a long time, whenever I heard any bus beeping, I would get shaken up inside and anxiety would take a hold of me. But as each day passes, the trauma becomes less and less and I become stronger and stronger. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Today, I turned 33 and that number nor that particular bus no longer has a hold on me. I am free and I’m continuing my ministry — to feed the hungry both physically and spiritually. I know I was born to cook and there’s nothing else I’d rather do but cook nutritious foods for life. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I can’t go back to who I was but I’ve learned to love myself where I’m at now. I may be a little different but aren’t we all evolving?
