Cup of Sunshine

MAY 16, 2017

How could something taste so good?
Rich and smooth.
Delicious and satiating.
How I love finding new tastes that tickles my palate.

The recipe for this powerful anti-inflammatory drink was inspired
by the recipe page of [Dr. Cowan's Garden Powders](https://www.drcowansgarden.com/collections/available-now-2#_l_3i) (affiliate link) for turmeric powder.

Makes 1 Servings

**Ingredients:**
Please use organic!
- 1/2 lemon, squeezed
- 1/2 tsp Dr. Cowan's Garden Turmeric Powder
- 1/4 cup full-fat coconut milk (bpa free can)
- 1/2 tsp raw honey
- 1 small pinch of Himalayan salt
- 1 pinch (1/8 tsp) of fresh ground pepper
- 1 to 1 1/2 cups of warm water

**Optional Toppings:**
- sprinkle of cinnamon or...
- sprinkle of Dr. Cowan's Garden Turmeric Powder

**Directions**
1. Squeeze a half a lemon into a glass or mug. Stir in ½ tsp Dr. Cowan’s Garden Turmeric Powder, ¼ cup full-fat coconut milk, pinch of salt, pinch of pepper, and ½ tsp raw honey.
2. Add 1 or 1 ½ cups warm water to your glass or mug. You can do one of two things at this point. 1) stir the contents well by hand, or 2) pour the contents into a blender\* (I use my bullet blender) and blend for 30 seconds. Once emulsified, return to your glass or mug.
3. Sprinkle with either a pinch of cinnamon or the turmeric powder.
4. Enjoy

\*Note: I found that blending the ingredients helps keep them from separating. If you stir by hand you will need to stir as you drink to keep the turmeric from sinking to bottom.

The Retiring of a Labyrinth

By Lea Goode-Harris • 05 Aug, 2023

Labyrinths provide us with a path to practice change. Some labyrinths have withstood the passage of time for thousands of years. Others are here for just an afternoon, drawn in the sand at the edge of the ocean. Many modern labyrinths were meant to last for years, but because of unforeseen circumstances their time is shorter than intended. And they once again help us to practice letting go and giving thanks for the time they are with us. The Labyrinth of Life at the Sebastopol, California Teen Center reached such place of letting go and is at the end of one chapter and the beginning of another chapter that is yet unknown.

Making A Three Circuit Labyrinth

By Lea Goode-Harris • 05 Aug, 2023

Sometimes... a labyrinth can take years to become a physical reality. In 2018 I met with my friend Deb, to discuss her desire to have a labyrinth on the beautiful land she lives on. Despite our plans and several meetings, listening to the land and finding the right spot, the labyrinth did not come to fruition. Fast-forward five years and in the blink of an eye... it happened!
