I think it's really important to find the right balance for you - a way of eating and living that satisfies you physically and mentally - and that's different for everyone.

I want to make vegetables a bit cooler and help people see them as something that can be an interesting, delicious addition to any meal, but that doesn't mean you should feel you only need to eat broccoli!

I'm always cooking big veggie curries for friends with tons of spices, coconut milk, chilli - I'll saute potatoes in the spices, then cook them with all the flavours and stir in some chickpeas and spinach at the end before serving it on a bed of sesame brown rice. It's easy to do and tastes amazing!
Ella Woodward -
My aim is to get people excited about eating more veggies and seeing them as delicious ingredients rather than a chore.

I find both yoga and pilates awesome at calming my mind and strengthening my body.

My illness is now in remission, and on a day-to-day basis, I truly feel amazing. I wake up with such incredible energy, which I never had before my illness, and I really feel so in tune with my body.

I want everyone to eat whatever makes them happy.

I spent ages learning to take photos, which was a lot of fun, and I think it really helped readers get excited about the recipes.

When I first started blogging, I kept it a secret from my friends and then started to show a few people, and it snowballed from there.

What I hear a lot is that fresh, healthy eating isn't accessible. That it's full of bizarre ingredients people have never heard of that are really expensive. There's also a perception that it's time consuming and not very filling.
Ella Woodward -
Believe me, there's nothing I hate more than feeling hungry.

Just because I like being healthy doesn't mean I can't have fun - I don't drink excessively, but I'll have a couple of vodka-and-sodas.

If you have a large family like ours, you have to fight to get your point across, and I think I learned that from my dad.

My whole thing isn't about being vegan, to be honest. It's more about a more natural diet.
Ella Woodward -
It's so cool, the number of emails I get from people saying I changed their life. It's pretty crazy.

I've always loved the scent of rose; it's just the most beautiful scent. If you open my bathroom cupboard, everything is rose scented.

I always carry a little jar of nuts around with me. I roast them beforehand with tamari and thyme to give them a deliciously rich flavour.

If you're struggling with that sweet tooth, try making healthy sugar swaps using things like honey, maple syrup, and medjool dates. These are all completely natural and will satisfy any sweet cravings.

Eating well isn't about dieting or deprivation, so you shouldn't feel that you're bound to certain rules.

On a weekday, I'll go for a big bowl of creamy porridge with almond butter and berries if I'm at home, or a super quick chia seed breakfast if I'm running out the door first thing.
Ella Woodward -
I was a real sugar junkie. I don't think I realised I was actually fully addicted to it.
Ella Woodward -
Before I changed my diet, every time I ate, my torso would feel burning hot, and the areas around my lymph nodes would really ache.
Ella Woodward -
With eating well, there's a perception that it's depressing. People think they're just going to meditate and eat kale.
