Levels of Eating
What level are you on now? What level are you choosing to be on moving forward? Food is meant to sustain us and support us through life, not be the focal point of our experiences. We don’t need fried, greasy foods to excite our brains and give us something to feel good about, that’s an emotional cover up. Eating to feel happy is just a sign that something else is missing in life. Look for healthier ways to create sustainable happiness and satisfaction in your life in your relationships and experiences. Find what is missing, follow your heart, follow your passion, go out and be YOURSELF ♥
Benefits of Celery
Celery is one of the veggies that is routinely used in juicing. I am still adjusting to the taste of it. But based on the effects, I would really try hard to keep it down when drinking! I might just have apple-carrot-celery combination.
Let me just say, being able to don a swimsuit while swimming under a jandy pool light is motivation enough.
Hello Summer 2013!
Soursop: The Magic Fruit
Soursop, otherwise known as the guyabano fruit, has been making waves lately. It has been dubbed the magic fruit since you can utilize everything – its bark, leaves and fruit – for better health.
We recently had a cancer scare in the family lately and it has let us be more vigilant in taking care of our health. One of the things that was taught to us was to drink more of this soursop tea. It’s just dried leaves and peelings of a guyabano fruit. You can drink it hot or cold.
And we now get fresh guyabano puree from a local market too. It tastes great as is or with 2 parts water, 1 part puree. Or better yet, make it a shake!
Research shows that with extracts from this miraculous tree it now may be possible to:
Attack cancer safely and effectively with an all-natural therapy that does not cause extreme nausea, weight loss and hair loss
Protect your immune system and avoid deadly infections
Feel stronger and healthier throughout the course of the treatment
Boost your energy and improve your outlook on life
The source of this information is just as stunning: It comes from one of America’s largest drug manufacturers, the fruit of over 20 laboratory tests conducted since the 1970′s. What those tests revealed was nothing short of mind numbing…Extracts from the tree were shown to:
Effectively target and kill malignant cells in 12 types of cancer, including colon, breast, prostate, lung and pancreatic cancer.
The tree compounds proved to be up to 10,000 times stronger in slowing the growth of cancer cells than Adriamycin, a commonly used chemotherapeutic drug!
What’s more, unlike chemotherapy, the compound extracted from the Graviola tree selectively hunts down and kills only cancer cells. It does not harm healthy cells!

Family Issues
My family is the most important thing to me. It saddens me everytime I hear news about family breaking up- stories of abuse and divorce.
But not all divorces should end on a sad note. I also know a lot of families whose parents are divorced but get along great, even with stepparents in the mix. The key here is to be able to get a good Family Lawyer Dayton Ohio that can advise you legally on what to do and a therapist to guide you through a divorce.
Family Lawyer Dayton Ohio is someone you can always seek from recommendations from friends.
Treatment for Sinus Infections: The Natural Way
No sinus infections in the house for years. When we get stuffed up we get relief in under a minute, and it doesn’t settle or move into the chest. Inhale it from the bottle, or put a few drops on a tissue or cotton swab to carry around/ sleep with. When it is all of us I put 20 drops or so with a cup or 2 of water and simmer on the stove for a few hours. That also prevents colds from spreading(anitbacterial and antiviral). One person I know puts it in her vacuum when she vacuums.
Delivery Meal Systems
Healthy Delivered Meals UCLA is one of the things I really like to try sometime.
I don’t know how to cook so when you are trying to lose weight it can be hard to coordinate calorie counting when you are relying on help to cook food which is generally for everybody in the family.
I want to try it for one week so I can take a look at the usual menu and try to copy it. I also like to try juicing for three days.
Healthy Delivered Meals UCLA is really good if you need to have a very strict low calorie but well-balanced diet.
