This week I've been taking the time to really appreciate the city I live in: this post is an ode to London.

5 Veggie restaurants that even meat eaters will love
As a vegan I love having the opportunity to eat at veggie restaurants. It's so nice to not have to make a fuss when choosing a meal: not having to ask for one thing or another to be removed or added to a generic salad, or being faced by yet another stuffed pepper. It's also [...]
5 Little changes that could just make your life that little bit better
I often find myself naively drawn in by articles promising the secret of an infinitely better life: 5 steps to total mindfulness, 3 intense fat burning workouts, 10 steps to the perfect relationship, that sort of thing. Unsurprisingly, what I regularly find is that these articles just offer a series of commonsensical points, which often [...]
6 Non-dairy milks that will have you leaving the cows behind
You don't have to be a vegan or sworn-off dairy to enjoy the wide variety of milk alternatives now available in most supermarkets and health food stores. From almond milk to Oatly the range is not inconsiderable, and with each type and brand providing its own unique flavour and nutritional profile you could be forgiven [...]

Eat less, move more: How public nudity and Ben Greenfield have changed my views on diet and exercise
There is something more than a little unnerving about standing in nothing but your knickers and a pair of high heels, surrounded by mirrors and faced by a total stranger. It is a scenario that forces you to take a serious look at your body. Seeing yourself practically naked from every angle is rather a [...]
A new vegan cake fuelling system for marathon training?
With Lent now in full swing I debated writing a post about abstinence this week. Whether it's cutting back on a vice such as alcohol or caffeine, laying off the chocolate or avoiding sugar, being abstemious, and knowing that you can do without one thing or another, can be incredibly empowering. Indeed, since the yoga retreat [...]
