A little while ago I was invited to a really awesome event called #currysintrojuicing . The event was focused on healthy living through Juicing and Yoga.
It was held at Lambert's Yard which is a very beautiful rustic location above a clothes shop! It has a New York style art gallery/bar feel to it and lots of character.
The event itself was organised by the Joe Blogs team. We were split up into different teams and we had a schedule for everything! They certainly did a fabulous job.
We were greeted with some tasty shots of Juice to get our taste buds warmed up for the day ahead.
There were 5 different activity stations.
The first one me and my group of blogger babes got to try was that the Juice Station.
We were presented with a glorious amount of fresh fruit to choose from and we were given the freedom to experiment with our own juice concoctions.
My first recipe wasn't very good because I put WAY too much lime in it so I won't share that with you.
My second attempt, however, was really tasty (and of course super healthy too)!
Recipe:
ApplesTwo - A handful of Raspberries
- A couple of Strawberries
CarrotsTwo
Totally proud of my efforts in the picture below.
India was rather proud of her outcome too.
By the time we were done the table looked like this, India Benjamin and I had a little accident. Perhaps next time Joe Blogs will be supervising more...
After this we had a taster session of Rocket Yoga. I must say I had never heard of Rocket Yoga so when we were given the choice of doing normal yoga or Rocket Yoga, I chose the latter thinking hey how hard can it be?
Turns out very. As you can see Holly is having a slightly better time than me! Picture by Jenny. Yoga sessions were run by the brilliant Amanda from Yoga Elementz.

Rocket Yoga is like normal yoga, but a lot faster and therefore more intense.
I really, really enjoyed it, and the relaxation afterwards was absolutely amazing.
I thought,
After that we got to experiment with making Juice Mocktails.
Me and Jenny volunteered to create some juicy goodness for everyone. In all honesty, I completely improvised, but it actually tasted pretty good!
Next up we enjoyed some delicious soup and had a chat! Me and Tamara from the Tofu Diaries bonded over our love of cats and the fact that both of us have an Instagram account dedicated to them (don't judge).
Last but not least was the Nutritionist station. She shared some of her fabulous recipes and told us about the best health supplements to add to the juice to get that extra zing
Tea pigs Matcha Powder being one of them.
I didn't know how much we were supposed to add and overdid it a little, so lets just say I had a
The beautiful Curry's juicer which is now officially on my wish list .
I had an absolute banger of a time, thank you Joe Blogs for inviting me!
Till next time,
