Aging doesn’t have to be painful and ugly.  With good self care you can help maintain your energy, skin, libido, and health.  Help your body by eating well.  An improper diet creates candida overgrowth which saps your energy and stresses your adrenals.  High acidic levels create joint problems.  Joint replacement is big business these days.  It’s great that they can replace them, but why not save yourself the pain by taking some precautions.  I’ve listed three food based items that are easy to add to your diet.  Sunfood is offering them this weekend buy one, get one free. That’s hard to pass up.  Here’s what to look for:

Maca: This is raw, Peruvian maca.  Maca is nature’s Viagra.  It is beneficial for men and women.  Maca is reported to support and balance the endocrine system, endurance and mental focus.    It is also beneficial for depression and addiction.

MSM:  This is sulfur which is one of the essential minerals that is difficult to get with our modern diet.  It is important for healthy cells.  Especially the joints.

Pau D’Arco Tea:  This is a light, pleasant tasting tea that is particularly beneficial for eliminating candida, relieving constipation and building red blood cells.  Even if you don’t feel you have any of these issues you will enjoy the flavor and support your body in staying healthy.

I use each of these products on a regular basis.  You can find more information by clicking on the link below or to order.  This is a great time stock up.  I am. Sunfood offers many great products. Check them out.

I was listening to a relationship coach the other evening and they said something interesting that has me thinking and reflecting.  Their statement was, “The Spark in relationship comes from our differences, not our similarities.”

Reflecting on my own relationship I can’t say that I agree.  I don’t think you can put “spark” in a box and neatly define it.  I remember our first date.  The sparks that were flying had nothing to do with differences.  I remember being excited that we had similar languages, so to speak.  We were both familiar with Law of Attraction, we are both creative, and spiritual.

Do our differences create spark?  Sometimes.  I believe we have both enhanced each others lives with our differences.

I really believe “spark” is felt from a vibrant life force energy.  When my partner is creative and excited about his own life.  When he is caring for himself I find him much more attractive.

What do you think?  What do you believe creates the “spark” in your relationship?

This morning started out feeling like I had so many things to do I didn’t know where to start.  I knew a to do list was in order.  After the animals got fed I made my morning smoothie.  The recipe varies to keep it interesting:

1 Cup orange juice

3/4 cup coconut milk

1 Tbl Spirulina-Amazing complete protein

1-1/2 tsp Opti-MSM (organic sulfur) If you’ve never used this you need to start with smaller amounts.  Great for joints, skin, hair, nails, healing, cleansing, etc.

1/2 tsp Merlin’s Herbal Magic Roots Elixir-Cleansing and energizing without caffeine.

1/2 tsp Maca-Balances endocrine system.

Stevia-No calorie natural sweetner

8 frozen strawberries

Blend and enjoy.  It tastes great.  It’s very green.  Very fulfilling.  Packed with nutrients.

I decided to take my smoothie and go feed the fish in the pond and pick tomatoes.  I spilled 3/4 of the smoothie.  Ugh.  The ants around here will be supercharged.  I knew it was time to slow down and not worry about getting anything done.  Breath and just feel good.  That’s enough right now.

I love these products. You can find everything but the Stevia at the link below.

Sunfood Nutrition is my favorite source for food related nutrition.  I use their products in my daily smoothies like MSM powder, Spirulina, Earth, Mangosteen powder and Maca.  They are advocates for raw diets so the products they offer are raw and minimally processed

This is a great weekend to try something new or restock.  Everything is on sale. I love it.  Check them out on the link below.

Maca and Spirulina can taste a bit “strong” in a smoothie.  This recipe works well and is loaded with vitamins, minerals and protein.

1-1/2 Cups Chocolate soy milk

1 tsp Spirulina

1 tsp Maca powder

1/16 tsp pure stevia powder

1 banana

1 tsp Sunflower butter

1 tsp Hemp oil

6 ice cubes

Everything goes in the blender till smooth.  Enjoy.

An Asian superfood worth adding to your diet because they improve liver function, strengthens eyesight, boosts the immune system, improves circulation, increases alkalinity, improves fertility, high in antioxidants, contains proteins, essential fatty acids, minerals, amino acids, more beta carotene than carrots, and increase stamina and energy.

Whew, that’s a lot. They are easy to add to your diet. They are tasty so you can munch on the dried berries by the handful. Try adding them to some trail mix. You can toss them in a salad. They add a nice variety in your diet.
