3/1/2016 0 Comments Love the Skin You're in!You Skin is the Largest Organ in you body. It is also the Largest eliminator of toxins. The pores in your skin allow you to either excrete the toxins or absorb the toxins that your body in exposed to. The most poress areas of the body are your feet, hands, & elbows. Due to the harsh pollution and environmental toxins we are frequently exposed too our skin has been direly suppressed and is relying mainly on other detox organs like the lymphatic stream or colon to do its task. It is important the we limit our exposure, detoxify our skin, & maintain a healthy environment for this vital organ.
1. Start by limiting your exposure. Most products we use on our skin are man-made or chemically based. Try using products that are natural and organic. Try to avoid harsh chemicals like: Cancer Causing DEA, MEA, TEA Carcinogens like Formaldehyde Preservatives like Parabens Synthetic Colors, fragrances, & Dioxin Mercury, Lead, & Aluminum Mineral Oil which stops the skin from releasing toxins. 2. Detoxify and cleanse your skin by stimulating a release of the harsh chemicals and toxins. Great ways to stimulate your skin are: Infrared Saunas- Sweating detoxifies the skin but infrared light can penetrate internally warming the body from the inside out allowing for longer exposure to more bearable heat while also releasing deeper levels of toxins throughout the skin. As opposed to an average sauna that just warms the air around you body. Ion Foot Spas- Foot Detoxes increase circulation in the lymphatic & skin system cleansing toxins and impurities through the bottom of the feet which as we know is one of the most poress areas of the body.Continue on your 3. Continue your regiment of reducing exposure and maintaining through treatment maintenance. Maintain healthy skin at home through: Skin Brushing Epson Salt Bathes Rebounding Frequent exfoliation & rigorous sweating through fitness Start healing this vital Organ today by taking advantage of $10 off your first Infrared Sauna Treatment

Probiotics are our Healthy, Normal, Good Bacteria needed to help maintain our bodies natural balance within the intestines. Scientific Evidence suggests you can even prevent some illnesses by eating foods, taking supplements, or doing colonics or enemas containing certain kinds of Healthy Gut Flora's. Probiotic bacteria keeps harmful bacteria from consuming the intestines, aids in digestion, nutrient absorption, and is a key factor in over all Immune Support & function.
Do you Experience: *Gas/Bloating *Candida/ Parasites *Food Allergies & Cravings *Constipation/ Diarrhea *IBS or Leaky Gut Syndrome etc. All of these symptoms can be affected by not having enough Good Bacteria and too much Bad Bacteria living within your intestinal lining. it is most important to first remove the Bad bacteria but then replenish the intestines with Good Bacteria & Probiotics. A colon Hydro therapy treatment or colonic is one of the most efficient ways to remove bad bacterias and toxins but how do we replenish it with good bacteria? Falsely we are told Yogurt is the best supplement for probiotics. Mainstream media leads you to believe these Dairy Based products will assist in your digestive health but that is far from the truth. More effective means of replacing and replenishing Good Bacteria for Colonic or Colon Hydro Therapy Clients would be a Probiotic Additive with your treatment or enema at home. Done at the end of a colonic, a final fill of Live, Practitioner Grade Probiotic leaves the colon feeling refreshed and ready for immediate absorption. You can also replenish Good Bacteria by eating healthy nutrient rich foods & juices as well as try increasing some of these foods high in Good bacteria at home: *Kefir *Sauerkraut *Miso *Tempeh *Kombucha Teas *Micro Algae *Kimchi And even Dark Chocolate Lastly, You may be on a Probiotic supplement at home that you take daily which is great and we would encourage you to continue but please understand the difference of systemic probiotics and digestive. If you are suffering from digestive complaints and symptoms yet taking a probiotic that is a pill or dietary form you are likely NOT receiving the digestion probiotic absorption you are looking for. The best probiotic supplements for digestive discomfort are supplements that are Enteric coated. This means the the absorption will begin in the intestines and not in the stomach. Taking the two different types in conjunction is even better. At the end of the day the best way to increase the good bacteria in your body is directly to the source so if you experience any of the above symptoms a Colon Hydro therapy session with a probiotic additive is the best way to quickly and easily increase your bowel health, reduce discomfort, & increase your good bacteria. Schedule you Colon Hydro Therapy with Colonic Probiotic Additive Today! 11/30/2015 0 Comments Huge Cyber Monday SavingsCyber Monday has finally arrived!

We give thanks for the many blessings we have and celebrate our time together. For many it is also known as a time for over eating, weight gain, and stress. We often find ourselves communing around the dinner table, like we once did as children, enjoying our traditional family favorites. Although we enjoy the time with the people we love and the celebration shared we often find ourselves feeling tired, sluggish, over weight, and unmotivated to continue with the health goals we had obtained throughout the year. So we have some tips to keeping the thanksgiving holiday fun without all the back lash. 1. Make Time For Fitness: This does not mean lose your valuable sleep or time with your loved ones by spending countless hours in the gym. We have some creative ideas that can help motivate you and even inspire others to join you. Try organizing a family game of touch football or activities like backyard games to get yourself and others involved in the physical fun. Try walking often. Take a brisk walk in the morning or after meals. Even try inviting someone you haven't had enough time to chat with and ask them to join you. This is a good way to stay active as well as spend quality time with your family and friends. 2. Eat Like a Cow: A little different then it may sound, this doesn't mean to gorge or over eat. This means graze all day. Try to keep your meals smaller by eating off the fruit, veggie platters and salad dishes all day long. If you try this once you sit down to the less nutritious family favorites you will find yourself eating less and staying full longer. It is good for your metabolism and will help fight the cravings for the things that you normally desire during this holiday. 3. Drink A Lot: Of Water that is! Staying hydrated is one of the most important things you can do for your body to keep your tummy full and your energy up. It's my recommendation to stay away from all the sodas and sugary drinks that are readily available during this holiday season and just drink water! Deny the juice at breakfast or a midday beer and substitute that for water for all or most of the day. Saving those empty calories from the sugary drinks to be better used during the holiday party or dinner where you then enjoy a traditional favorite or cocktail. 4. Be as Picky as You Want: When scanning the holiday menu or buffet table use discretion and be picky. We often find ourselves wanting to try "a little" of everything. Instead this year try only eating portions of the foods you truly desire. This will help you not over eat but still find yourself completely satisfied. Sometimes less is more! 5. Be a Advocate of Health: Often guests are asked to bring an item of food to share pot luck style. Try taking this opportunity to do a healthy twist on a family favorite. They can be equally as delicious and much more nutritious. Some ideas like Mashed Cauliflower instead of mashed potatoes, Roasted Sweet Potatoes instead of Candied Yams, Yogurt Sauce instead of Ranch Dip, or even something as simple as Sprouted Grain Dinner Rolls instead of Regular Rolls. When you make these subtle changes people take notice and who knows maybe next year everyone will try it. At the very least you have a healthy substitute on your plate when you sit down to eat. Thanksgiving is all about spending quality time with the people we love and showing gratitude for the wonderful blessings we have. One of the most important gifts we have is our health. So following some of these simple steps can be the ultimate way of showing gratitude for our bodies as well as keep you feeling healthy and vibrant to partake in the most important part of the holiday...... Loving the people around us! So this Thanksgiving lets spend more time focusing on what comes out of our mouths as opposed to the next thing we are going to put in it! From my family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving! 11/24/2015 0 Comments Feeling Bloated?Do you suffer from frequent Gas & Bloating? Bloating can be annoying, unsightly, uncomfortable and often time embarrassing. Wether you are having a hard time squeezing into your favorite jeans, experiencing bloated cramps, looking like your 6 months pregnant, or afraid to pass gas, I think we can all agree Gas & Bloating is a major inconvenience. There are a number of different contributors to gas and bloating but before trying an expensive remedy try some of our tips for ridding yourself of Gas & Bloating? CUT OUT SUGAR- White Sugar is a culprit. White Sugar causes candida which is an overgrowth of bad bacteria that lives and breeds in the colon. Candida causes Gas & Bloating when it is given a food source, sugar is an amazing food source for both candida and parasites. Parasites who live off of sugar can also cause frequent gas and bloating. Take away the food source and you may see a decrease in gas and bloating. CUT BACK ON WHITE FLOUR AND GRAINS- Like Sugar, White flour and ecsessive grains can feed candida and parasites. Again, cutting out the food source can help to reduce the symptoms. Most grains also contribute to a significant amount of food allergies. Food Allergies can be the root cause of gas, bloating, & inflammation in the digestive track. Sometimes a simple food allergy test can help you cut out these and other foods that may be the cause of your gas and bloating. TRY DIGESTIVE ENZYMES- Often times when we lack enough digestive enzymes to break down the foods we eat our small intestines will create gas and bloating. There is plenty of enzymes in veggies and fruits. Try increasing your fruits and vegetables intake to naturally increase your enzyme levels. Papaya Enzymes which you can find in Papaya's is also very helpful. To quicken the process, taking a trusted Digestive Enzyme Supplement before each meal for a minimum of 3 weeks can be very helpful. VIBRATIONAL HEALING By Connie Stewart Intuitive, Medium, Vibrational Healer, Author of the Forthcoming Book, The Other Side of the Bayou Putting too much thought toward illness is unhealthy and keeps us focused on the breakdown rather than the breakthrough. Cutting energetic cords to childhood imprints/programming is a precise and highly effective way to clear emotional, energetic, physical, mental and spiritual blockages. I call it as preventative energy medicine. Disease begins before it manifests in the physical realm. Long before we ever experience the first symptom, the imbalance lives as trapped, or stuck, energy. In fact, research done by Bruce Tainio and Gary Young indicates that "the normal frequency range of the human body is between 62-68 MHz; but if it drops below that, the individual becomes a candidate for illness. Cold symptoms appear at 58 MHz, flu symptoms at 57 MHz, Candida at 55 MHz, Epstein Bar at 52 MHz, Cancer at 42 MHz. Stated simply, if we can keep the body frequency high enough, and well oxygenated, we will be free of disease." Once identified, the blockage can be energetically cleared and health restored. Blocked energy can be a result from early childhood imprints and is perpetuated through continued attraction to the unhealthy people and patterns throughout life. Stress, overindulgence, addiction, inadequate nutrition and/sleep, etc. all contribute to the energetic imbalance which eventually shows itself through illness and disease. Disease Prevention is Possible Part of the intense interest in the field of vibrational medicine is the knowledge that disharmony shows up in the energy field before it becomes a problem in the body. If imbalances can be detected while still in the energy field, theoretically dis-ease can be avoided altogether. Another plus for vibrational healing is that it seems to have no negative side effects. It does, however, tend to produce a lightness, more energy, and an overall feeling of wellbeing. Most vibrational medicine techniques are complementary to one another and to traditional medicine. Metaphor A simplistic metaphor is that your whole being is like a piano. If just one string goes out of tune, the music doesn't sound right. If several strings go out of tune, it sounds unpleasant. The Vibrational Healer is akin to the piano tuner who goes in and uses a simple instrument to discover which strings are out of tune, and then uses another tool to tighten or loosen those strings. The Vibrational Healer uses vibratory tools, which are instruments that influence frequency. My tool is my consciousness. I am referred to as Mental Medium, meaning I can connect with and move energy with my mind, needing no other tool. ________________________ Healer, Clairvoyant-Medium, Mentor, Intuitive Profiler, Speaker and Writer, Connie is available for private sessions by appointment only. Through Intuitive Profiling and movement/release of negative energy, she identifies and cuts unhealthy energetic cords both in private and professional life. Releasing these harmful energetic connections allows us to function at a higher vibrational frequency.

Giving up flesh, animal protein, dairy and all animal products has numerous health benefits. If done right the vegan diet can be easier on your digestion, healthier for your body, and better for the planet. There are tips to follow to make sure you are doing it in the healthiest way possible and make it an easy transition. Preparing for a Vegan Diet doesnt require much additional work besides adjusting your shopping list. The most important thing to remember is when you remove the animal protien from your diet replace it with plant based protein and NOT processed foods, meat substitutes, excessive grains, sugars or junk food. The best plant based protein options to replace animal proteins are Lentils, Beans, Quinoa and Fermented Soy. Its also important to make sure your increase vegetables and other plant based foods higher in protiens like Green Peas, Spinach, Broccoli, Beans, Nuts like almonds, cashews, & pistachios. Be very cautious of not over doing the grains particularly wheat, gluten, white flour etc. Many meat alternatives are wheat and gluten based and can be terrible for weight loss and digestion. Try to refrain from eating soy based meat alternatives and a lot of the processed "Vegan" products on the market they really are not very good for you but more or less preying on the consumer. Tempeh is a safe form but stay away from Tofu and soy milk. Because meat tends to be pricier then other foods you will save $$$ on this diet particularly if you choose NOT to spend the extra money on meat alternatives. Spend the saved money on Organic produce as well as nuts and seeds. Eating out is still an option and there are many amazing vegan and vegetarian resteraunts so save for some of those splurges. If it is within your budget you can always use a food delivery service and refine your dietary needs as well as variety but make sure you explain some of the above dietary needs like Soy Free, Gluten Free, Wheat Free etc. Read more about what it means to truly go Vegan often people mistake it with being vegetarian which is not the case. To truly be Vegan you must give up any and all foods, casings, clothing, products, or supplements that use animal in anyway that includes dairy, animal protein, certain supplements, etc. Get ready to read labels alot of meat substitutes like to use things like casein or whey, gelatin and natural red 4 all of which are not truly vegan. On these Labels is where you will also find the hidden ingredients like Wheat, White Flour, or Soy so keep an eye out for labels or better yet try to eat as few packaged foods as possible. |
