Asian Pears
I came across this yummy fruit recently. It's a pear but shaped like an apple. This super-crunchy pear is lovely in a salad or added to your smoothie.  Asian Pear Slaw with Chillies You will need; celery - sliced, lemon juice, ginger root, rice vinegar Asian pears - sliced, onions - sliced, dhania leaves, fresh chillies. What to do; whisk together lemon juice, rice vinegar and ginger. Stir in celery and remaining ingredients and season with salt and pepper. Let stand at room temperature for around 15mins before serving. These pears apparently last for around three months if kept in the fridge. They are quite juicy, slightly sweet and a little tart near the core. To prevent discoloration when cut, just dip into some lemon juice. The Root Chakra  This is the first chakra and is associated with our basic instincts such as survival and self-preservation; food, shelter, health and security. Located at the base of the spine, this chakra relates to the principle of gravity, connecting us to our bodies, to the physical world around us, and to the ground below. It's essence is that of a rock. Major issues of an unbalanced root chakra are feelings of isolation, abandonment and lack of trust. Fear may take control of our emotional and psychological health. We may feel uncomfortable or not present in the body, a sense of not being heard or noticed.
