Think Twice- Say No To Antibiotics

Think twice, or three times, or even four before you take antibiotics. We have learned the hard way!!! There are more toxic and harmful side effects than benefits. There are so many powerful, more natural, non toxic ways to accomplish optimal health and healing. Thieves, echinacea and turmeric are just a few powerful and healing natural remedies. As we approach cold and flu season think twice before calling your doc for a prescription and give me a ring. 😀. One of many articles that appears to be well cited and researched: http://www.drlwilson.com/articles/antibiotics.htm. With love, Jennie

Eating Healthy- Learning How To Appreciate It

Eating healthy. Two words that are very misunderstood. In this day in age it's easy to understand how this would occur with all of the fad diets. One must truly understand the mechanics, the purpose, and the healing power of the digestive system, as it relates to healthy eating. The fall cleanse taking place Oct13th-26th is a perfect way to correct imbalances and get in touch with what the body truly needs to "be healthy". It will lay a great foundation for the coming winter months and enlighten you to understand what a healthy, well balanced diet is for "you". With love, Jennie

I Feel Awesome- Speak It Into Existence

How often do you walk around telling people how awesome you feel? We are not perfect. We are all working on something. If you haven't noticed, most people are more inclined to mention that they are NOT feeling well than when they are feeling well... "I have a headache, I feel like I'm catching a cold/fighting one, I'm dizzy, I have high blood pressure, my joints hurt, I have a chronic health related condition, cancer runs in my family and I have to be tested to prevent it and so on..." When do you personally take responsibility for your health? Preventing illness does not start with a flu shot and a test at the doc's office my dear friends and if you believe this to be true you have been misled and fooled! Optimal health can be achieved by eating the right foods for YOUR body type (I'm not talking fad diets either), exercising regularly, quality sleep and keeping stress to a minimum and living in peace through activities like meditation. Here is to a new you and a new beginning... join us in the group cleanse across the country beginning Oct 13th. This cleanse is unlike anything else out there!!! I am working on getting the site up that will educate you and empower you to cleanse properly and feel renewed and alive. Have a blessed holiday weekend. With Love, Jennie

Here's To You!

I just saw a commercial for Fiber One granola bars. It plagues me that we live in a country where people actually believe that chocolate granola bars are a healthy way to increase fiber intake. Ha! Processed, man-made foods are not healthy... in any way shape, or form. Your transformation begins October 13th! Cleanse with thousands of people across the country and feel rejuvenated and renewed. God has used me over the last several years and he is still using me. I have partnered up with some of the leading doctors, I have read and researched and I have been my own science experiment. Sometimes in order to learn you must live, you must do, you must be and I have. God has led me one way and then another... It is my goal to get 100 people to do the cleanse come October and the funds that are earned will be put towards furthering my education to serve you, your children, your family members and friends so that you can truly come to love eating healthy and being healthy- mentally, physically and spiritually and live the life I KNOW you are destined to live! I will be an Ayurvedic Practitioner!!! SO EXCITING! With love, have a blessed week, Jennie

This Crazy World

We live in a crazy world! We may live in this world, but we do not have to be of it. We do not have to follow the ways of others. We can march to the beat of our own drum and it's ok. If we were all the same in this journey called life it would be boring. Appreciate others and their differences. Accept that they are not perfect, nor will they ever be. There is no such thing as, "Other's Control". People don't like to be told what to do. In most instances it's best to bite our lips and simply pray for strength and peace, or for peace for others. There are times where I get frustrated, or want to say something I know I should not and simply saying, "Help Me God," inside my head helps a great deal. Have a blessed weekend

With Love,

Eat Simple

Eat simple. Your buddies, ketchup, mustard and mayo were not around 5,000 years ago, jarred pickles, hot sauce, pop tarts, French fries, pizza and so on.... The more processed, boxed, or jarred the food is the less "life giving" it is to you. The less complex your food is and the closer it is to nature the better. Eating seasonally is also best. For instance hot foods, spicey food and red meat should be limited during the summer as they are heating to the body, can cause irritability and dry out the body for the winter. Ice cream, while ok in moderation during the summer and served best midday with lunch, actually puts out the "digestive fire" which enables us to break down food and assimilate nutrients. So before you take the next bite of breakfast, or dinner make sure you are really hungry, keep it simple and ask yourself if what you are about to ingest will nourish you and make you feel good- physically, mentally and spiritually.

Basic Steps For Healthy Eating

Living a long, healthy life is not all that complicated. Dr. Oz, although he is not my favorite doc, stated today that 90% of our health is in our control. Eating a balanced diet based on your body type and potential imbalances, getting enough sleep, reducing stress and being active all play an intricate role in our health and well being. There is actually very little need for supplementation and supplements (including protein powders and such) and they can actually be more harmful that beneficial even when you are referring to some of the highest quality, natural supplements. I am still learning too. There is always something new and exciting to learn, isn't there? Here are some basic steps that can improve digestion. If you need further guidance, or would like to put together an action plan let me know! Jenniefos@gmail.com
