Regeneration or Substitution—which are you choosing?

-
Regeneration or Substitution —which are you choosing? Why is that an important question? Why does it even matter? Because your choice affects your quality of life! Let’s start with an example:                Credit cards are a convenient substitute for cash, which is an advantage to 1) carrying a lot of cash around and 2) makes bookkeeping a little simpler. And 3) they can be useful in a financial crisis. But what if you have a lifestyle of never budgeting your income to pay off the credit cards?   That leads to bankruptcy.   What we think is a lifestyle of freedom can often create enslavement! What if we live a lifestyle of choosing the convenience of consuming processed ‘fast foods’ in boxes to save ourselves the time and energy it takes to cook? Or what if we choose sugary ‘fake foods’ to soothe our emotions rather than address what’s causing them? That’s when we’re choosing substitution! Choosing low-quality ‘substitute’ foods eventually leads to a health crisis in our b

Whole Foods or Chemical Isolates? What’s in Your Cupboard?

Whole Foods or Chemical Isolates? What’s in Your Cupboard? Your choice affects your health and your wealth! Many of us are already investing in our health by shopping at a health food store or farmer’s market.   We believe we’re buying quality vitamins and health supplements.  But are we?  Could these also be substitutes that are weakening our health? Millions of people around the world are choosing to get their vitamins from whole foods. Why do they choose to eat an orange rather than 1,000 mg of Vitamin C? Because they know that most bottled vitamins are chemical isolates. What is a chemical isolate? It is a single element that had been isolated from its natural complex environment.  Dr. Wayne Dyer was a member of the World Hunger Council and shared that this organization created a chemically manufactured wheat. Under a microscope, their laboratory creation is chemically identical to real wheat. BUT there’s a big difference: when put in the ground, it won’t grow. What’s miss

Your Symphony of Health

-
Image
Have you ever heard a symphony in person? When I was a little girl, I loved sitting on the couch with my father listening to classical music.  “What’s the oboe playing?  What instrument is playing now?”  He would have me tap on his arm the rhythm of different instruments teaching me to hear them.  Isn’t it amazing how 5 different sections of instruments, with multiple musicians in each section, can all work as members of a team and create harmonious soothing sound?   Each musician is focused on his own contribution, yet everyone’s skills are completely balanced and united! The master composer, who created our bodies, created individual symphonic masterpieces, with each coded and stored in our genes.   Our body follows an outline, the ‘sheet music’  so to speak, that allows our body  to perform in total harmony . There are 5 sections or systems in our body’s symphony too:  Circulatory - Immune – Digestion – Endocrine – Respiratory.  They were designed to function in a state of balance

Healthy Gut = Healthy You!

Have you ever wondered why two people who have the same exposure experience different outcomes – one gets sick, but the other doesn’t? The difference boils down to their immune system. Did you know that 70% to 80% of your immune system lives in your gut?  Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, known as the gut doctor, explains that the foundation of a healthy gut is in the fiber in whole foods.  And it's important to eat  a large variety of fruits and vegetables (suggested 20 to 30 different varieties per week) because each one has its own unique fiber that gives you a larger variety of good bacteria to boost your immunity.  Since this isn't always convenient, I add  Quinary to my daily meals.  We follow his suggestion of adding a sprinkle of cinnamon, turmeric, and ginger powder (about 1/8 tsp of each) into our coffee so it becomes a food that improves our gut health. It's delicious! Of course, you need to shift sugar to honey and substitute a plant milk, like oat, for the flavored creame

My 3 Daily Teas

  Have you ever bought tea by its name or aroma and then been disappointed in its taste?  Do you dislike herb teas because they taste bland?  Then let me introduce you to my favorite green teas that are really delicious superior herbal beverages, with concentrated antioxidants. 1 – Calli Original This ‘super tea’ is my choice to drink in the morning because it supports my body in cleansing itself of any toxic chemicals, metals, free radicals, and uric acids that have accumulated.  I think of it as my ‘insurance policy’ because I cannot always afford organic foods and meats. Sometimes I prepare it as one tea bag in 4 cups of pure water to sip at room temperature throughout the morning.  Other times when I feel my body is ‘sluggish’, I will prepare it in 8 oz. of pure hot water for stronger cleansing.  Because of its ‘magnetic’ drawing properties, I only prepare and drink it from glass containers. The secret to it’s superiority is the herbal extracts (Perilla leaf, Imperata and Alism

Health Facts about Tea

    Tea in general has been linked with health and well-being from its beginning. It is prized for its ability to banish fatigue, stimulate the mental powers, and raise the energy level. The book, All the Tea in China , says “…tea brings into harmony two seemingly contradictory elements: alertness and relaxation. An offer of a cup of tea is therefore like an invitation to relax and enjoy the here and now for what it is.”      Serving tea to guests in Chinese homes “is a symbol of togetherness, a sharing of something enjoyable and a way of showing respect to visitors.”   Thus, it is even linked to the health of emotions and relationships.        The first international symposium on tea and health, held in New York in March 1991, concluded that “tea could become a popular and potent weapon in the war against chronic diseases. Why?      Tea contains “polyphenols”. These are the antioxidants that repair cells and are said to aid our immune system and bodies to help against cardiovasc
