‘Don’t Worry Be Happy’ Takes On A Whole New Meaning

Can a sore bottom be expected? You bet! A sore, burning, itching, irritated bottom is nothing to cause you alarm or harm. This is all part of the healing crisis, so be happy! Remember, the toxins are leaving your body, so discomfort can be expected. Years of old waste has had plenty of time to accumulate and ferment. Expect bad breath, body odor, extra smelly bowel movements, runny nose, plugged ears, blurred vision, and more.

Patience is needed in natural health and beauty, but you can expect the  benefits to be longer lasting and deeper. How many health treatments are beauty treatments? And how many beauty treatments are health treatments? NONE, unless it involves natural healing!

Don’t stop when the going gets rough – you are unveiling the younger you!

I once read an article that stated the reason women live longer than men is because we cry more. Could this be true? Do men need to cry more, and more often?  Crying was also brought up at one of the sweat lodges I attended. The man in charge of the rocks gave his pre-sweat talk to the group stating, we detox by way of sweat, bowel movements, vomiting, and crying. I love it – no wonder crying can feel so good sometimes. So… I do believe there is some truth to this – however, crying alone would take f-o-r-e-v-e-r  to detox.

There are many ways to detox, these just happen to be some. Detoxing, when done properly and long enough, can be your fountain of youth and the only prescription you’ll ever need. Mix in a little passion and purpose… and there’s no telling how far you can go!

Aging Less, On Purpose is what nature intended!

There are different types of fasts and cleanses and all should begin and end with caution. You should not expect to go from eating a regular meal one day to fasting or cleansing the next. You can – BUT expect to be hungry and have unpleasant side effects.

What you’ve eaten days before will play a huge role (good or bad) in your experience and results IF YOU DON’T PREPARE. Therefore, the best way to avoid unpleasant side effects is to wean yourself off “regular” food for three days prior to a cleanse or fast by doing the following:

• Day 3 – if you eat animal products, eliminate those on this day.

• Day 2 – try to avoid all cooked food, and…

• Day 1 – eat only raw foods. This includes fruits, vegetables, soaked raw nuts and seeds, fresh young coconuts, juices, smoothies, salads, sprouts, etc.

You are now ready to begin your fast and have liquids only. If you are doing a cleanse that does NOT require fasting, you can do a two-day countdown.

I love their sense of humor in this video, but more than that I like the tie in between the car and  their noninvasive approach to diagnosing…

Getting a vehicle diagnosed seems less invasive than many medical tests. Why not prevent breakdowns with MAINTENANCE? Put both, your body and vehicle on the same schedule. Clean them out every 3 months (or so) and see what happens!

Ignoring your vehicle for 5, 10, 15 years or more won’t take you far for very long. The same goes for your body – you’ve got built in gauges, USE THEM! What are they? Bloating, gas, headaches, puffy eyes, skin conditions, weight gain, blurred vision, fatigue, lack of energy… the list is endless.

Don’t ignore what’s under your hood by only tending to your exterior!

Women AND men… having flawless skin doesn’t have to cost a fortune or be health hazardous.  Here are 5 simple tips for your health AND naturally good looks.

1. Drink more water – flavor it with lemon, apple cider vinegar, ginger, chlorophyll, etc.
2. Women – remove eye make-up with olive oil… rub in and tissue off. A small bottle of cold pressed organic is plenty.
3. Wash your face with apple cider vinegar (ACV), diluted with water – see below
4. Use white sugar to help exfoliate dead skin and reduce fine lines… just don’t eat it!
5. Clean your kidneys – when your kidneys are sluggish, your skin (the 3rd kidney) tries to poop out what your kidneys can’t… thus breakouts!

#3… working for Dr. Schulze, I quickly learned how he helped his model and actress clients have flawless skin. He put them on his Hollywood Makeover Cleanse of flushing the kidneys, drinking more water, washing with ACV, and moisturizing with jojoba and tea tree.  Not sure where to begin?
