Prem and Prana (2026)

23/02/2026

2026 has started strong at Prem & Prana.

A lot has been happening behind the scenes. All of it working towards one thing: showing you how food and our daily rituals, through a lens of everyday Ayurvedic principles, can be one of the most powerful tools for your health 🪷

We were lucky enough to work with the incredibly talented , who understood our brief instinctively and captured not just our products, but the philosophy behind them. We think you’ll love what he created.

The website is almost ready. And with it, the start of a real conversation about understanding yourself through Ayurveda.

Good things are coming💛

I’ve been putting off this appointment for ages. You know how it is – when you work in healthcare, you’re the worst at looking after yourself 😅

18 months ago, my bloods showed elevated thyroid antibodies and markers of chronic inflammation and autoimmune disease.

Today: Unequivocally normal.

I actually asked my GP if the previous results were an anomaly. She pulled up the numbers. “Definitely not,” she said. This is real improvement.

Here’s what I did:
• Meditated every single day
• CCF tea first thing each morning
• Shifted to a more whole food diet
• Small, incremental lifestyle changes

The plot twist? My B12 and Vitamin D are low – so yes, I’ll be taking supplements. I’ve left with follow-up bloods (hormones!! Eek) and referrals to investigate some long-standing things. Nothing major, but if I don’t look into them now, perhaps one day they would be.

And here’s what I didn’t do perfectly:
• My weight is the highest it’s been in some time
• My sleep is erratic
• Juggling two jobs + building a business = stress
• Late night snacks happen
• That extra glass of red wine? Yeah, also happens

I’m only human.

I’ve accidentally become my own experiment – I haven’t even tried ashwagandha or other Ayurvedic herbs yet because I wanted to see what everyday medicine could do. The kind you can administer yourself. It’s a form of self-love.

I’m elated. My bloods show I’m in very good health. Not perfect, but healthy.

And that’s worth celebrating.

To my fabulous GP at – thank you for always taking the time to listen and support this journey 💚

What a year it’s been!

From spice markets to Christmas markets, from handwritten labels to professional ones, from a couple of ups of chai to 180 cups it’s been a year of growth, grit and gratitude.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Here’s to the year that was, and all that’s ahead for 2026 ✨

On this Christmas Eve, as everyone is frantically searching for the perfect things to put under their tree, to get every possible thing we might need for a perfect Christmas lunch, a reminder to breathe.

The gifting and unwrapping is part of the magic, and when the wrapping paper ends up in the bin and the pressies are put to one side, it’s the memories, the laughter, the mishaps, and the people we share it all with that we’ll treasure most. 🤍

The Bondi Beach Christmas Markets scheduled for Friday 19th - Sunday 21st December have been cancelled out of respect for our community as we process this week’s tragedy. This is absolutely the right call.

I was booked for Saturday 20th, which was going to be my final market before Christmas. While I’m disappointed not to see you all, some things are bigger than business. Our community needs time and space to grieve and heal.

The Festive hamper prize draw will still go ahead as planned - if you’d like to make a purchase and enter the draw, you can DM me directly. I’m happy to arrange delivery or pickup in the Bondi area.

The regular Bondi Farmers Market will continue this Saturday . If you’re able, please show up and support our local makers and growers - community connection matters more than ever right now.

Thank you to everyone who’s supported Prem & Prana at markets this year for our first Christmas season - your warmth and connection has meant everything as I build this dream.

Sending love to our Bondi community

**Check in on your Jewish friends and neighbours**

This was a targeted attack on the Jewish community celebrating Hanukkah. Reach out. Show up. Listen.

Your presence matters.

**Show up for yourself**

Communities are opening their doors to hold space for us as we all process what we are going through:

- Free community breathwork - Tuesday 6:30pm, 219 Bondi Road .withleo

- All classes this week are open to the community for yoga and movement at the beautiful yoga studio on Campbell parade that has supported our community now for years

- Visit the memorial at Bondi Pavilion - lay flowers, stand with community

**Support directly**

- Donate blood (especially O negative) - lifeblood.com.au or 13 14 95
- Victim support campaigns via Chabad and community groups

***And don’t forget to care for your bodies!***

Our bodies carry trauma - we need those everyday anchors more than ever.

Water, sleep, connection (with people, not on a screen doomscrolling). Warm drinks that soothe. Movement that grounds. Whatever helps you stay present.

Be kind and aware that you don’t know what the person next to you on the bus has been through - what traumas they may already be carrying and that we all process differently.

One thing I know is together we are stronger.

The ordinary acts of care matter now 💛

I was SO excited to be going back to the market where it all began: Bondi Public School, our kids’ school, our community.

A year ago, my very first market almost got cancelled because of the weather. This time? Massive wind gusts sent marquees flying across the playground during setup 😅

I had to laugh, of COURSE the weather had other plans! But we secured everything down, the wind settled, and it turned into the most beautiful day.

Being surrounded by the people who’ve been part of this journey from day one made it all come together. Swipe to meet them →

Last year, Debbie and Kirk were my very first customers. This year they came straight back for more. That feeling when people remember and return? Pure magic.

The Tandoori Paste flew off the table, mostly thanks to my husband’s sales tips (he’s got the gift!). And the girls? Well, who can say no when they offer you a chai taster with those smiles 😊

Watching my family share what we’ve created with our community, the pride on their faces, honestly that’s the real win.

The best part? Being surrounded by mini makers: our 8-year-old and her bestie running their own stall across the way, young entrepreneurs all around me. The creativity, the hustle, the joy. This is what it’s all about.

I had other markets to choose from to book that day, but this one was non-negotiable. This community backed me when I had no idea what I was doing, and showing up for our school, whatever the weather throws, is what Prem & Prana is about.

Thank you to everyone who stopped for a chai, enjoyed a candy cane and a chat, or just said hello 💛

Next up: Bondi Beach Christmas Markets, this Saturday Dec 13 & and 20th

See you there!

That moment between the first sip and the second ❤️ The pause. The surprise. Then they come back for more. I love watching people try our tea!

This is what real masala chai does - it stops you in your tracks. No powders, no shortcuts. Just organic spices ground fresh in small batches, the way chai was always meant to be.

Caffeine free, dairy free? I’ve got you covered.

I’ll be serving it this Sunday at Bondi Public School’s Christmas market 8-12 then the next 2 Saturdays down at the Bondi Christmas Markets , Bondi Park 9am-5pm. Come taste the difference.

December 2nd.

There’s something so loaded about December don’t you think? Calendars fill up quicker, your feed is full of tinsel and Mariah sound bites, and everyone seems a bit more rushed.

And if you’re already feeling behind you are not alone.

This was my Monday morning moment. December 1st. First day of the last month of the years

I started with my usual morning practice, breathwork, meditation and CCF tea . I was thinking about how I wanted to be really intentional about this final month of what has been a huge year for me.

And then life happened.

A last minute morning advent calendar dash. Work. Couch cuddles when I got back with a little one who needed emergency dental work.

The gap between my morning intention and my actual day? Pretty massive.

Reflecting on it - our daily practices are not about having the perfect plan. They are about being the small anchors that bring you back when everything feels like too much.

That morning practice gave me steadiness before the chaos hit. A moment of grounding even when the day went completely sideways.

Here’s the thing: we don’t need to be overwhelmed this December, even though it will be a lot. We get to choose the moments when we’re willing to rush and when we’re not. Choose your yeses and your nos intentionally.

Find your anchors. Choose your pace. Show up for yourself, not just for everyone else.

And as we move through this season, remember: Christmas is triggering for some and lonely for many. Behind the big smiles are people struggling, grieving, or just trying to get through.

Be kind. To yourself first, then to others. When you fill your own cup, you have more to give.
