My Sunshine 🌞 Drink Recipe

So many people have asked me for this recipe

Every day I start my day with this drink. After drinking this delightful concoction, that I fondly call “My Sunshine Drink”, 🌞 I drink my straight celery juice and then my Isotonix Vitamins, that I have been taking faithfully for 23 years now.

I love starting the day with my Sunshine Drink 🌞. It started off as warm lemon water but now I have evolved it to a threesome of citrus fruits along with honey.

I have made a short video to show you exactly how I make my Sunshine 🌞 Drink.

Here it is, just click on the arrow and enJOY.

I hope you find this helpful and if you want more info on how to make celery juice and why it is beneficial you can learn more here:

Removing Stress One Bit At A Time!

Stress. Stress. Stress.

This morning I was messaging with one of my entrepreneurial team members about a virtual presentation for this afternoon. She is to present a short piece of information that she has been preparing for our upcoming meeting today. This person told me that she would do her best but that she did not feel well prepared.

A woman with her head in her hands in front of her laptop, looking stressed.

I said to her something to the effect that it was all good and that there were no worries. AND that if she did not feel that today was the best day to present her contribution, she could do it another day and that it was all ok. It was all okay.

I really believe that lowering or removing pressures in our life, is hugely helpful for our health and well-being. Even in business, I think we can make things work with less stress on ourselves. I am all about being in JOY, and it is no different in business.

𝒥❁𝒴

The more we can lower stress and expectations that we feel pressured by, the better it is for our health and well-being. It is so important, especially at this time in history, to move away from stress and fear and to move toward peace of mind and comfort. ♥ By lowering stress we also show love and support to our immune system.

What about you?

Do you find that you put too much pressure on yourself? Or that you have too many expectations or demands put on you? Do you put these on yourself?

Even letting go of one small expectation or thing that you feel you ‘must do’, can bring a huge relief to your mind and may even be beneficial for your physical health when it comes to the body’s stress response.

When I learned about adrenaline and how it can be very toxic to our bodies, especially when it is continually running rampant, it helped me to become more conscious of lowering my stress bit by bit, and now I go through my day more aware of little ways to de-stress and to lower expectations of myself that cause me stress.

I hope you found this helpful and I wish for you less stress and more JOY in your day to day living.

And please never forget that you can and should reach out if your are feeling that you need help with your mental health. It is mental health week here in Canada and there are lots of supports and people that are always available to help.

This is from Lisa Lisson, president of FedEx Canada and I think that it is worth sharing here and a that it is a great reminder and it may inspire you or offer hope. 🙂

sun, sunshine

🌞 Sunny Sun Sun 🌞

I love the sun! 🌞

Fun in the Sun! Oh ya.

I ran across this article yesterday and it is about schools of the past and fresh air and sunshine. I thought it was brilliant.

Here is the link to full article with cool pictures of days gone by:

I have written articles about the healing power of the sun before and you can read those here if you like 🙂

I often think of how amazing the sun is and if you could package its energy in a little bottle of Sunshine, it would be so cool wouldn’t it? MMM MMM just think about the beautiful sun and be sure to soak up some of its glorious frequency when you can. 🙂

Immune Health, Vitamin C

Vitamin C – A Household Word

You here a lot of buzz these days about Vitamin C and for good reason.

Beautiful Oranages

Scurvy was among many diseases suffered due to malnutrition. It wasn’t until the 1930’s that Albert Szent-Györgyi discovered the ascorbic acid —also known as Vitamin C. Vitamin C enables the body to efficiently use carbohydrates, fats, and protein. His discovery was among the foundations of modern nutrition.

Vitamin C, is a water-soluble vitamin and essential micro-nutrient. As humans, we cannot produce vitamin C in the body, so it must be obtained from dietary sources, primarily fruits and vegetables.

So Many Benefits!

Vitamin C is necessary for the growth, development and repair of all body tissues. It’s involved in many body functions, including formation of collagen, absorption of iron, the immune system, wound healing, and the maintenance of cartilage, bones, and teeth.

In addition to its antioxidant properties, vitamin C is beneficial when it comes to heart disease. Vitamin C has been shown to reduce monocyte adherence to the endothelium, improve endothelium-dependent nitric oxide production and vasodilation, and reduce vascular smooth-muscle-cell apoptosis, which prevents plaque instability in atherosclerosis [1,2]

When it comes to eyesight, a population-based cohort study in the Netherlands found that adults aged 55 years or older who had high dietary intakes of vitamin C as well as beta-carotene, zinc, and vitamin E had a reduced risk of Age-Related Macular Degenerat [3].

Vitamin C also does so much more. It is available in many food sources

Vitamin C is abundant in several fruit and vegetables, including:

  • Bell peppers
  • Broccoli
  • Brussels sprouts
  • Cauliflower
  • Cantaloupe
  • Citrus fruits (e.g., orange, grapefruit)
  • Chili Peppers
  • Grapefruit
  • Kale
  • Kiwifruit
  • Kholrabi
  • Mangos
  • Papaya
  • Pineapple
  • Potatoes
  • Strawberries
  • Sweet Peppers
  • Tomatoes and tomato juice 

Vitamin C is a vitamin that we want to make sure that we are getting enough and because it is water soluble, too much vitamin is unlikely to be harmful. In the case of mega dosing for example, a worst case scenario would be nausea and diarrhea which is referred to as reaching ‘bowel tolerance’.

I am sharing a link here to more information on vitamin C and supplementation. Here I also share my most favorite type of Vitamin C to get this micro-nutrient delivered to your body in the best way to make it the most bio-available.

Amazing Benefits of Celery Juice

Sounds pretty amazing right? This is why I continue to drink celery juice as often as I can. I shoot for every day but you know how it goes, sometimes that does not happen so I just do the best that I can.

One of the things I love about celery juice, is how it supports liver health. I often hear people express to me their concerns over their livers. Some have been diagnosed with Fatty Liver and others tell me they can feel their liver and it is painful or uncomfortable. Supporting our livers is super important.

I hear or read about stories almost daily about the beneficial results people have had and are having from drinking celery juice. I would love to hear yours too!

And here is a link to all my past post about celery juice.
