Louise's Turbo Breakfast Booster Nothing beats a Monday morning meeting fuelled by Louise's legendary turbo booster smoothies. Satisfyingly substantial and also totally vegan!

1/2  banana

1/2 avocado or some mango

1 tsp maca powder

1 tbsp hemp protein

1 tbsp chia seeds

1 tbsp coconut oil

1 tsb baobub powder (optional)

2 tsps goji berries

2 tsps peanut butter (optional)

water or koko coconut milk to mix

Luca's Better Than Coffee Choco Banana Shake

"My favourite smoothie recipe which I have for breakfast as its better than coffee! Or after running as a post workout protein shake."

1/2 tbsp hemp protein powder

2 dates, pitted and pureed

2 tbsp  raw almond butter

1 tbsp flaxseed oil

1 cup coconut milk

1/2 tbsp raw cacao powder

1 frozen banana

Rachael's Rosewater & Almond Lassi

"Not technically a smoothie, but deserves a mention. I like it a bit on the thick side, but you can adjust yogurt/water ratio to suit. Use decent quality rosewater-  there are a few shops on Mill Road where you'll find this, it's not expensive. "

3/4 cup natural yogurt

1/4 cup water

couple of ice cubes

small handful roasted almonds or dessicated coconut, if you're feeling fancy

pinch of ground cardamom

honey or agave, to taste

Sam's Easy Lazy Smoothie "Aim is lazy smoothie post workout. Is also great as a meal replacement. Rice protein is more digestible than hemp. Coconut milk is high in a type of fat that your body converts to energy. Really important this is organic."

Coconut milk - mixture of the juice and 2-3 tsp of the cream

1 tsp powdered wheat grass

1 tbsp brown rice protein

Half a banana

Becky's Twisted Green Goddess "My fave is a green goddess juice with a twist - made with melon instead of apple with a bit of ginger. Or a summer peach and apricot (which i think is made with a little apple and orange juice)."

cucumber

celery

big handful of spinach

melon chunks

The GOOD cafe sells a wide range of smoothies and juices. Pre-order yours before class to quench that post-yoga thirst!

Only 4 days left till the New Year which means it's time to make some New Year's resolutions :). And we wouldn't be proper Yogis if we didn't include resolutions and challenges such as:...eating healthier (or drinking more smoothies for breakfast :)), having more regular Yoga practice, meditate more and think positively or maybe even making the time to do Yoga in unconventional and spectacular places (as long as it's not hazardous to your life :)) - anything that is in some way prosperous to our body and mind and thus will help us to become the happy and healthy person that we all want to be.  Although that many statistics are sceptic when it comes to people achieving their New Year resolutions I believe that we all can overcome the challenges ahead of us and be successful in our efforts. To make sure that we'll have our best chances I decided to select few healthy tips. Let's get a head start this year!

1. Delicious and healthy smoothie to have in the morning:

GREEN TEA, BLUEBERRY AND BANANA SMOOTHIE

3tbsp water 1 green tea bag 2tbsp honey 1 1/2 cup frozen blueberries 1/2 medium banana 3/4 cup of fortified light vanilla soy milk
