Loving and Living to Inspire – Rawfood Intuitive, Dropping the Stories, Staying Present – Mastering the Spiritual Art of Life

My name is Fiona Stolze and I believe that we are totally responsible for creating our own reality and that we have the life of our choosing. There is huge empowerment in realizing this and taking it on board. And at the same time it can be very painful to let go of our limiting beliefs and step into our power. When we can slow down and honestly look at the stories we have been creating to hold ourselves stuck, … Continue reading

How to Make a Green Juice that Makes you Wake up and Dance!

I must admit, I have a reputation for being able to drink anything that you can dredge out of your hedge. And this little drink is really no exception (and no, it’s not a pint of Guiness). I’m having a good laugh as I write this, gleefully anticipating sharing with you what is in it. I know making green juices really isn’t everyone’s cup of tea (excuse the pun), but they give you such a health boost and are great … Continue reading

How to Make Raw Chocolate with Heart – a Valentine’s Day Special

I promised so many of you that I would make a video showing how to make these yummy raw chocolate treats that I keep talking about. Well  here it is, so if you watch this first, we can have a chat about it afterwards: As I mentioned the trick is to really use equal measures of the three main ingredients, raw cacao powder, raw cacao butter and agave nectar or sweetener of your choice. Whatever else you add it totally … Continue reading

Mandala Paintings, Silk & Art and Tallaght Library, Dublin

Just a couple of days ago I was browsing through my thousands of digital photos from the past few years and came across a handful I had of an exhibition I did in Tallaght Library in Dublin in 2009. It was one of those spontaneous, last minute things. A few days before the Easter holidays were due to start. And someone who had been scheduled to exhibit their artwork for 3 weeks had withdrawn. So they were looking for someone … Continue reading

It’s All Just One Big Cosmic Joke – Seriously!

I just had to laugh when a really fun post appeared in my newsfeed on Facebook this morning. It was poking fun at all the ways we behave and talk when we get caught up in trying to be too ‘spiritual’. Have a quick look and see what I mean: I really laughed out loud which meant I had caught myself off guard with a good few of them. Over the past few weeks I have spent quite a bit … Continue reading

Looking Back on 2011 with Gratitude

I can remember this time last year when I did an audit of 2010 and realised that I had had a quiet year of introspection – Finding the Balance Retrospectively. On the surface it seemed that very little had happened but on closer inspection it turned out to be a year of great growth. This past year has had a very different flavour indeed. But the thing that jumps out most at me is the fact that I began the … Continue reading

Oracle Cards and John De Ruiter

It’s Thursday again and the day that I always pick oracle cards for those of you who visit me on my Inspired Art and Living Facebook page. I often like to pick one for myself too and share in the fun. So, today being no exception, I decided to take part. Now interestingly, I already picked some cards for myself a few days and ago and was prompted to pick up John De Ruiter’s amazing book ‘Unveiling Reality’ and start … Continue reading

Follow the Path to Your Heart – RedBubble Mandala T-Shirt

Many of you are already familiar with the art site RedBubble which offers artists the opportunity to sell prints and clothing with their art images emblazoned on them. You as the artist allow RedBubble to use your image. They in turn produce the physical product and deal with production, shipping, returns, etc. and you get a self-chosen commission on any items ordered with your artwork. So all in all, it’s a great deal if you don’t want to get involved … Continue reading

Living the Raw Food Lifestyle – How to Make a Fruit Juice for Breakfast

It seems like forever since we started the raw food lifestyle and it’s a constant learning process. Every day something new is unfolding and revealing itself to us. Often when I’m talking to people about it they say: ‘Hey, so tell me, what do you actually eat on a daily basis?’ It’s quite funny when I realise that they think I’m living off raw carrot sticks and drinking cold water. Brrrrr…. the truth is far from that. And so I … Continue reading

Raw Cacao Versus Commercial Chocolate – Sorry, No Contest!

Whilst transitioning to the raw food lifestyle, I have been exploring all the different options there are for having indulgences whilst still eating really healthily. As I mentioned in my last blog post, I was never a real chocolate fan, but my research has led to the discovery of how sustainable raw cacao powder is as part of this new way of eating. There are very many purists who will argue that eating raw cacao is not really in keeping … Continue reading
