FOODY FRIDAY - I love how pesto brings a burst of flavour into anything you add it to. Try it in a zucchini pasta, in any salad (leafy green or pasta salad), in an omelette, on pizza, in hummus for a tasty veggie or cracker dip, in wraps or sandwiches. The possibilities are endless.

Parasites ARE GROSS, and much more common than you think. 😳 They can enter the body through undercooked food, contaminated food or water, insect bites, or contact with infected animals, especially with so much of our food being imported from all over the world. In fact, most of us have some parasites, small and for the most part harmless. Some parasites however are not so harmless and can lead to health issues. Pesto comes to mind when I think of these four foods, what a great idea, I think I'll have to make some up this week.

IT'S NATIONAL CLEAN BEAUTY DAY! Looking for products that aren't loaded with chemicals? Look no further. I have been creating my own line of skin care and therapeutic products for over 15 years, using only plant based ingredients that nourish and rejuvenate the skin. They are the only products I use myself, and my customers won't use anything else either. Check out the online store for the complete range of lotions and potions today.

ESSENTIAL TUESDAY - I'm harvesting a lot of thyme from my garden at the moment, which I will use for cooking, in tea blends, and I'm also infusing it in coconut oil (not to be confused with an essential oil) to use for sore throats and cold season. It's kind of like oregano oil, but using thyme instead. Thyme is one of the oldest medicinal plants on record as a natural remedy, long before essential oils were a thing. The essential oil is very powerful, so be sure to dilute if applying topically, and absolutely avoid if you are pregnant.

MNDAY VIBES - Benjamin Franklin is quoted as saying, "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure". It just means that when dealing with a problem, expending a small amount of time and effort sooner rather than later is a good investment, and save you more trouble in the long run. I like to apply that to being proactive with my health. The more I can do to stay healthy today, reduces the risk of dealing with huge health issues tomorrow. So far so good. 😄

FOODY FRIDAY - Think outside the box and use these salad dressing recipes, not only for greens, but for quinoa salads, coleslaw, egg salad, potato salad, or as a spread in wraps. The Thai recipe makes a great seasoning to add into a stir fry, right at the end. Enjoy!

THURSDAY DIY - When I make roller bottle and inhaler blends, I am sure to use a combination of these essential oils, depending on who I am making the blend for. Reducing pain, inflammation and anxiety is the name of the game when it comes to headaches. For quick relief, add 2-3 drops of 3 - 5 of these oils in a carrier oil to rub on temples, forehead and base of neck, or add to a diffuser. For ready made Headache Relief Roller and Inhaler Blends, check out our on line store or come by our location.

WELLNESS WEDNESDAY - Let's face it, we live in stressful times, and sometimes the best thing we can do for ourselves is wind down with a hot or iced cup of tea. There are many adaptogenic herbs that can help our brains to better cope with stress, and help our brain to shut down for a good night's sleep. I just made a large pot of tea with lemon balm, Tulsi, mint, mullein & hibiscus, that I will refrigerate for a refreshing iced tea I'll be enjoying over the next few days.

MONDAY VIBES - I sometimes refer to myself as a "recovering" control freak, because sometimes I still forget that other people's thoughts, actions or situations are completely out of my control. What is in my control is how I respond to the situation, and that is a very liberating place to be indeed!
