Granja Integral Luz Del Corazon

The cas-guava chutney was so delicious on Friday that today I’m making another chutney of cas- guava carambola (starfruit) and again raisins, Ginger, mustard, and lots of Yum

When life gives you 6 kg of guava, it seems like it’s a great day to make chutney. I’m trying out a new recipe- with red onions , fresh ginger and habaneros- looks amazing. Who else makes chutney? . What are your favorite recipes?

Resiliency is like Tai Chi- just keep moving!

The Constant Within

Change is the only constant.

Our bodies remind us of this every day. Cells renew, seasons turn, relationships evolve, and we move through cycles of beginnings, endings, loss, growth, and return. Nothing remains exactly as it was. And right now, it can feel as though the entire planet is moving through an especially intense season of change.

Politically, socially, climatically, economically, and technologically, the ground beneath us seems to be shifting. Our food systems are changing. Transportation is changing. The climate is changing. Wars, fires, floods, volcanoes, and uncertainty remind us that life is never as fixed as we might wish it to be.

For many people, this constant movement is frightening. It can create anger, anxiety, and a desperate desire to find someone or something to blame. When the world feels unstable, we naturally search for something outside ourselves that we can control.

But perhaps there is another way to meet change.

Instead of searching for what is permanent outside of ourselves, perhaps we can begin looking for the thread of consistency within.

For me, that thread is a quiet inner light—a sense of connection that remains even while everything around me moves. I find it in the Earth beneath my feet, in the love of friends and family, in the simple miracle of being alive. I find it most deeply in meditation, when I become still enough to feel that steady presence at the center and core of my body.

The world may be changing, but I can return to myself.

I can breathe.

I can listen.

I can remember what matters.

This does not mean ignoring suffering or pretending that everything is fine. There are people experiencing tremendous pain and danger for countless reasons. There are wars, displacement, hunger, environmental disasters, and profound uncertainty. We do not need to deny these realities in order to find steadiness within ourselves.

In fact, perhaps finding that steadiness is what allows us to meet the realities of our time with greater clarity.

So I wonder: Where do you find your consistent self?

Where is the place inside you that remains connected when everything else feels uncertain? Where do you find your inner strength? And can you learn to move from that place—not from fear, anger, reaction, or helplessness, but from a deeper place of inner knowing?

Perhaps we can make it a practice.

For one day, pause before reacting.

Take a breath.

Feel your feet on the Earth. Feel your body. Find that quiet center within you.

Then ask: What is mine to do from this place?

Maybe tomorrow, we do it again.

And the next day.

And the next.

Until returning to ourselves becomes a habit.

Perhaps then we can begin moving through this changing world with purpose, vision, clarity, grounded intention, and love.

We cannot stop change.

But we can choose how we meet it.

And perhaps the greatest stability we will ever find is not in a world that stays the same, but in discovering the steady light within ourselves while everything else continues to change.

May your coffee be hot, your milk fresh and your heart filled with joy today and everyday!

That moment when all 100 bananas on the stalk decide to ripen at ONCE 🍌😅
It’s like northern zone farmers with zucchini. What do you even DO with them all?!

I made banana oatmeal bars.
Just mushed ripe bananas + vanilla + cinnamon + raisins + oatmeal + splash of fresh milk.
Bake 15 minutes and WOW. They’re heavenly.

Used 35 bananas and made 4 trays. Yes, some are already in the freezer for later 😂
When you come visit, I’ll make you some!

Success!
After 2 jackfruit fails 😅
1. Picked too early
2. The animals beat me to it
Today: we finally nailed the timing.

And WOW. Fresh ripe jackfruit is _nothing_ like the prepackaged stuff. It’s sweet, juicy, and honestly tastes just like Juicy Fruit gum.

I’m boiling the seeds next — they say they taste like chestnuts and are super nutritious. Look at how beautiful they are!

Have YOU ever tried fresh jackfruit? Not the canned meat substitute — I mean the real, fresh fruit.
