Healthy Mama Magazine Issue 1 - July 2014 | Page 5

Letter from the Editor W hat an incredible journey it has been to arrive at our very first issue of The Goodness... it has been filled with laughter, tears, immense fun, networking, mind explosions, travel and copious amounts of delicious food, taste testings and disasters! Bringing together the incredible players in the world of organic, wholesome living is the easy part...I also run around after a very vivacious and active almost 2 year old boy who absolutely loves his food and anything with wheels. He is the reason I get out of bed every morning and the reason why I want to share the love of wholesome food and begin to reconnect so much more with our precious planet. As any mother would agree, these incredible creatures are miracles gifted to us and we’ve been given the extraordinary responsibility of stimulating their minds, nurturing their bodies and loving their souls so they can emanate the magnitude of light that resonates with them. I take this responsibility seriously...but try to take it easy on myself if I don’t get it right every time and laugh a little when I have absolutely no idea what step to take next. Team The G Bamik Hambaz GOODNESS GURU [email protected] Nathan Baker LOGISTICS LEADER [email protected] Danni Landa WORD WEAVER [email protected] Richelle Chapman DESIGN DIVA The Goodness project is one that is dear to my heart and I’ve been blessed with a team who also hold the values of The Goodness dear to them - Nathan, Richelle and Danni - all of whom have helped bring this bundle of deliciousness to life before your eyes today. We are a multinational team living in Australia, Canada, South Africa and Spain - bringing you a multicultural view on what’s wholesome, what’s delicious, what’s inspiring and what’s a little bit cheeky sometimes:) This month, we have a jam packed issue of super easy meals, bite sized snacks, sweet treats and the triple 5’s - 5 quick recipes with under 5 ingredients for kids under 5. We often find, the simpler the food, the bigger the hit with the kids...don’t you agree? The super special element to all these recipes is that they each have a collection of indicators to help you easily determine if the recipe has or doesn’t have what you need at a glance. We cover raw, vegan, dairy free, gluten free, nut free, to-go ideas, alkaline and superfoods. My two favorites are how alkaline the recipe is and if it contains superfoods. If over 50% of the ingredients are alkaline, it gets tagged as such. It just simply means it’s an energizing food. Keep in mind though, all food has it’s place on our plate...some more than others...you know which ones are right for your body. With a whole lotta love..x [email protected] ADVERTISING All enquiries, please contact: [email protected] If you have any questions, suggestions or would like to be promoted within The Goodness Magazine, please let us know at [email protected] the small print: P.S. be sure to like & connect with us on Facebook and answer these SUPER QUICK questions for your chance to win 6 months of The Goodness for you or your bestie..x eat the spectrum enjoy moderation & variety everyday :) © Copyright 8ubble Pty Ltd, 2014 • All rights reserved.
