SIMPLE CHOCOLATES WITH ORANGE ZEST

I always keep a tub of homemade chocolates in the fridge to dip into and I love experimenting with different flavors. Here's one sweet snack that's full of antioxidants and serotonin (the happy hormone). You can enjoy guilt-free!

Ingredients

4 ounces coconut oil
2 tablespoons Agave
5 to 6 Tablespoons cacao powder
1 Tablespoon maca powder
Grated rind of one orange

Preparation

Gently melt coconut oil in a pan.
Add the agave and whisk.
The secret to smooth chocolate is to keep whisking while adding the rest of the ingredients.
Add the maca powder, cacao powder and, for a zesty taste, the grated rind of one orange.
Place in silicone chocolate trays in the freezer for 30 minutes until set.

These chocolates will melt quickly so store in the fridge.

You’re going to the doctor next week to have that mark on your thigh looked at and you think it’s probably nothing, but worst-case scenarios float into your head 24/7 and distracting yourself doesn’t work. Why is that?

DUMPED, BUT NOT DOWN ( HOW TO DEAL WITH REJECTION)

Rejection is a fundamental law of the (social) universe. But if you laser in on every dis, you'll likely trigger a self-fulfilling prophecy. Rejection-sensitivity is on the rise, but you can learn to brave even the biggest brush-offs. Everybody hurts. In ways big and small, we are all snubbed every day of our lives. Of course, we can't possibly like everyone who likes us or join every group that would have us as a member, so we constantly let others down, too. It's the way the social universe operates.
