My husband is in a wheelchair and so many children stare and want to engage with him. Many parents often tell their child not to stare. I think we probably learnt it from our parents. My husband has always encouraged children to come and say hello. Children are just curious, and the more they look, and then engage, the more they will understand. Same goes for children to children. We are mostly all the same, and the more we identify that, the more happier we are, and also our communities will be.

Dear clients,

I’m confident it’s time for all of us to turn within.

“We have in ourselves at certain moments an intuition that something else is possible — an indestructible inner freedom, a harmonious unity, and participation in the life of a ‘better’ world. Certain myths, certain forms of art, the traditions and religions are influences which seem to come from ‘somewhere else,’ touch us sometimes in the midst of our ordinary life and revive this intuition. Indeed, these influences bring us an impression of an inner opening, an opportunity to awaken, and if we are attentive to it, we can recognize that something in ourselves responds… In this way, there can be developed in certain people a special, almost magnetic sensitivity and attraction to everything that can lead in this direction.”
— Jean Vaysse, Toward Awakening

This is an unprecedented time in the history of the massage therapy profession in Australia, when Association of Massage therapists advises all members in practice to shut down all client contact immediately.

With no regrets, I’ll follow this advice.

Massage therapists have a disproportionately massive role to play in managing the spread of the virus like COVID-19 due to the proximity that the job requires.

“So most people have a fear of acquiring the virus. I think a good way of doing it is to imagine that you do have the virus and change your behaviour so you are not transmitting it. Don’t think about changing your behaviour so you won’t get it; think about changing your behaviour so you won’t give it to somebody else. Graham Medley, Professor of infectious disease modelling

The earlier we act, the earlier we will be reunited.

Love&Light always

4 years of love, and our gives us back 4 beautiful fruits for the first time. . #🍈 💚Limes are strongly sour, thus encouraging secretions in the digestive tract and salivary glands. These secretions improve taste, digestion, and regular elimination (functioning as a mild laxative)

💚Lime's sour taste increases the flow of bile which aids fat digestion, reduces liver and gall bladder congestion and detoxifies the blood. Since bile contains many toxic by products from normal liver function, draining bile from the liver has a cooling and purifying effect on the blood. 💚Lime cool and cleanse the skin because they help you sweat.

💚Limes cause fluid buildup in the lungs and blood plasma. The fluid buildup helps expectoration of thick, Kapha mucous. They also assist dry Vata especially when dehydration causes Dry Stomach Syndrome in autumn months.

💚Limes are acidic in taste yet alkaline in effect. Limes nourish deficient blood plasma and helps rebuild fluids. It's high vitamin C content nourishes the blood. Like lemons, they reduce acidity in the stomach. They also reduces uric acid and output of urinary calcium which helps to prevent kidney stones.

💚Unlinke lemons, limes are a mild anti-inflammatory. This juicy and mouth-watering fruit also has an astringent effect on capillary beds. Gently massage inflamed and bleeding gums with lime juice to soothe capillaries and reduce bleeding. Limes help prevent tartar buildup, which is known to be a cause of bleeding gums. Limes also contain natural bleaching agents to help brighten your smile. Lime may be used as a antibacterial gargle for sore throats. 🍈Meu limão, meu limoeiro
Meu pé de jacarandá!
Uma vez, esquindô lelê
Outra vez, esquindô lalá. 🎼 read till here? top tip: 💚lime juice is fantastic to remove baby poo stain 💩 or any yellow stain from white fabric. It can be added to the washing load or just sprayed on the spot before going under the sun

We have bananas! The green banana biomass was created in Brazil by Heloisa Freitas Valle, in a pure inspiration moment in the 90’s. Helo was a banana producer was told by one of her employees that her pantry was robbed. She had nothing to eat and no time to buy food. She asked for a bunch of green bananas and first she made a soup with them pureed.

She pureed them as if they were a potato and had a perfect soup consistency. In the following day she had the peels. She diced them and went to work. She felt so satiated. Her bowels movement were never as good as this before. Bingo! She realized she had a new SUPER FOOD in her hands. A very powerful thickener with functional properties.

Universities scientifically proven what Helo felt in her body. The biomass was an excellent food. They found out that the most important feature was biomass being a resistant starch. But now you are probably asking, what is a resistant starch.

The starches can be classified as resistant or digestible. The digestible transform themselves in glucose and feed the cells of the body. The resistant escapes digestion process in the small intestine going straight to the large intestine to feed the bacterial flora. They act as a fiber giving satiety and helping to improve the intestinal function.

After researching with universities, Helo took her biomass for a decisive test at Grande Hotel São Pedro, a reference in culinary in Brazil. With her precious recipes she worked with the chefs and together they improved what was already good.

Biomass as mentioned before is prebiotic. Besides the satiety sensation helps your gut to work better. It strengthens your intestines by feeding the good bacteria and for having such a high level of resistant starches, helping to diminish the absorption of fats and glucose. Excellent for diabetics, people with high cholesterol or people that are frequently constipated.

It is rich in vitamins A, B1, B2, nicotinic acid, besides sodium, potassium, magnesium, manganese, copper, phosphorus, sulphur, chlorine and iodine.

Biomass is a highly sustainable, cheap food that can help a lot of people to have a healthy and more economic nourishment.
