Hygge

The Danish concept of Hygge (hue gah) relates to the practice of finding genuine satisfaction in the simple pleasure of home, hearth and family.

                 

It is the being at peace with whatever comforts appear before you and relishing in the myriad ways one can appreciate a warm fire, a cozy hug or a meal cooked with love.

Hygge is my New Year's resolution and I intend to make home life the center of my activity. From the comfortable base of home I will reach out to the world with healing service and work.

Anima Mundi Apothecary

By far the most potent medicinal herbal tinctures that I have ever had, and I have had scores of them from all over the world, Anima Mundi Apothecary's elixirs are truly transformational tonics. I love the Corpus Lucem for its direct energy charge to the Love essence within. The taste is luscious and rich, and very addictive!

The Viridem is an exquisite green superfood tonic with rainforest herbs like moringa and sea foods like spirulina. I felt boosts of energy and clarity after drinking this elixir, not to mention the spiritual charge coming over me. I simply loves these blends.

The Blood tonic might very well be my favorite of all I've tried because of its intense cleansing and restorative action. I feel my eyes are clearer, my flexibility has increased, and my sleep is more deep and restful. And yes, the  color of the tonic is reminiscent of actual blood!

I was lucky to get all these items from Santa Barbara's Alchemy Spa Cafe, but they can also be ordered online and with a 40% discount throughout November! I love love love Anima Mundi herbals and will be buying them exclusively for all my herbal health needs.

Eating Breast Milk

Colostrum, the first food of newborn babies straight from their mum's breast, is a superfood for adults as well. Immune boosting, digestive healing and energy enhancing, this natural elixir can help to supplement a healthy diet or to maximize healing during a juice fast.

Quail Egg Shells

Quail eggs have become for me an essential daily superfood ritual. I have been consuming the raw eggs for a few years now and honestly I do feel that I am growing younger. Lately, after doing some research on tooth repair, I decided to begin eating the egg shells as well. Chock full of calcium, the shells have been proven to regenerate lost teeth and improve overall bone function. For women over forty and growing children, pure and easily absorbable calcium in such a natural form can't be beat. What a treat these little gems are! Thank you, dear quail~

Essence of Love

Doterra essential therapeutic grade oils are like love essence in a bottle. I absolutely adore the pure, harmonious, healing scent of each wonderful essence. The fact that they are suitable for ingestion only makes the allure of these aromatherapy gems more compelling. It is exactly as God intended I believe, for us to utilize the best and highest quality of what nature has to offer, in order to purify our bodies and our spirits. Please avail yourself of these amazing natural medicinal cures and experience love in essence.

Juice, Fruit & Roots

My business partner and I have started a juice bar in the Ikoyi section of Lagos, Nigeria. We serve freshly squeezed mango, pineapple, watermelon, coconut and orange juice. Added to the mix, if you'd like a smoothie, are bananas, papaya, and moringa powder for an extra nutritional boost.

On some nights, we also have palm wine available and moringa leaf tea w/ local honey. If you want something truly potent and incredibly healing try our special raw quail egg, moringa oil, pineapple, mango cocktail. It sure beats alcoholic mixes for a drink to elevate you mind, body and soul.

The decor of our juice bar is designed in collaboration with local artists and craftspeople, with the traditional Nigerian architecture in mind. Our bar is open air where you can enjoy the musical sounds wafting out from the live shows inside. We also have grilled fish, okro soup and eba available on select evenings. Come and join us!

Heavenly Quail Eggs

Raw quail eggs as a path to rejuvenation - who would have thought! According to ancient Chinese healing secrets, the benefits of consuming quail eggs include: healing infertility, curing diabetes and increasing sexual potency. These tiny protein-packed, nutritional powerhouses can help reduce body fat, cure asthma in children and improve memory and brain function. Having three per day will insure that the immune system is strong, the liver and kidneys are functioning optimally and the digestive tract is well maintained. Quail eggs contain vitamins A, D, B1, B2, B6, B12, magnesium, phosphorus, calcium, zinc, iron, copper and many other micro-nutrients, minerals and amino acids necessary for a long, healthy, vibrant life. 

"Adding quail eggs in your diet makes your body an environment unsuitable for cancer growth. This is because of the highly alkaline property of the quail eggs."  - Feather Buzz

Pepper Fruit

Cayenne Pepper Fruit is not the prettiest fruit, but what it lacks in appearance it makes up for in substance. This spicy, crunchy, nutty fruit is potent in its ability to heal, strengthen and revitalize the body. Munching on one of these peppery tidbits daily will eradicate digestive issues, eliminate psoriasis/eczema, stabilize fever and soothe head and toothaches. Pepper fruit, also known as ako in Edo, mmimit in Igbo, and ata igbere in Yoruba, gets its healing properties from a very high antioxidant, phenol and vitamin content. It has a mild stimulant effect and is useful for pregnant and postpartum women to build uterine strength. Often taken with kola nut and palm wine at Nigerian ceremonies, weddings and festivals, this indigenous gem increases blood flow to the heart and eyes, and thus can ward off heart attack and bring about vision health.

Rosemary

"The wonderful smell of rosemary is often associated with good food and great times. But it could just as easily be associated with good health. Rosemary contains substances that are useful for stimulating the immune system, increasing circulation and improving digestion. Rosemary also contains anti-inflammatory compounds that may make it useful for reducing the severity of asthma attacks. In addition, rosemary has been shown to increase the blood flow to the head and brain, improving concentration. So, the next time you enhance the flavor of some special dish with rosemary, congratulate yourself for a wise as well as delicious choice." whfoods.com

Peaceful Yoga and Longevity

Bringing peace into one's daily life is integral to health, harmony and longevity. A whole day filled with activity, interaction and communication must be grounded in a calm serenity in order for it to serve our souls. Yoga poses are direct ways to tap into our inner peace and align our daily lives with presence. Like trees that sway in the wind, weather sudden storms and take the heat of the bountiful sun, we can be solid, still and unwavering amidst the chaos of the world. This centered way of approaching life will enable us to live long and healthy lives, filled with contentment and joy.

Two ideal nutritional supplements to help enhance the natural rhythms of our body are the bio-available Vitamin C from HealthForce Nutritionals or the Earth Vitamineral powder. These Truganic, energetically enhanced formulas are infinitely more potent than the standard pill vitamins on the market, giving you the life- force your body, mind and spirit crave.
