  In today's fast-paced world, mindfulness offers a sanctuary of tranquility amidst the chaos. By grounding ourselves in the present moment, we cultivate a profound awareness of our thoughts, feelings, and surroundings. Through practices like meditation, deep breathing, and mindful movement, we learn to quiet the noise of the mind and embrace the beauty of each passing moment. With mindfulness as our compass, we navigate life's ups and downs with grace and resilience, finding solace in the simple joys of being. So take a deep breath, center yourself, and embark on a journey of self-discovery and inner peace.

Despite some wild weather ringing in 2024, there is a good supply of fruit and veg for the final month of summer. “Figs are in at the moment – a lot of local figs and glasshouse figs,” says Tony Polistina, co-owner of Forestway Fresh in Sydney’s Terrey Hills. “There will be a flush [of] them in the next couple of weeks.” Polistina sells figs from $20 to $40 a tray. In supermarkets, they can be found at $1.50 each. And when there is a fig glut, you could do worse than rounding up half a dozen to make Tom Hunt’s galette with figs, radicchio, blue cheese and walnuts. Extra-ripe specimens will turn luscious and jammy in Yotam Ottolenghi’s sweet fig and thyme clafoutis.
