ALKALINE POWER GREEN SOUP

One of the fastest to alkalize your body is by loading up on greens. An alkaline body is resistant to all kinds of illness from common colds to cancer. The big C can only thrive and grow and in an acidic body which is created by over consumption of meats, toxic and processed foods.  While the amount of greens required to bring a body back to alkaline state may be hard to consume in plain form, soups and juices allow for more intake and digestion when blended. I love soups and can have them everyday even in the heat of summer. Soups are one of the best ways to enrich your diet and bring your body to an alkaline healthy state. This particular soup is not only highly alkaline but also rich in protein, calcium and antioxidants.

Enjoy 🌱🍃

MEAT FREE MONDAY

For those that can't adopt a full vegetarian diet yet, even one day a week of giving up meat can make a world of difference not only for your health and overall wellbeing but also dramatically reducing your carbon footprint, save animals and reduce world hunger. 🌿

For a couple of decades I struggled with being a vegetarian back to eating fish or chicken because I wasn't eating properly and my health and energy struggled. I finally decided that I would study nutrition to understand what my body needed exactly in order to thrive while living sustainably and heeding the call of being a conscious human being. We've never been taught how to eat a healthy balanced vegetarian meal. The USRDA which has a vested interest in factory farming and is backed by Big Food is ran by a kind of political totem which favors the bottom line over your health. The marketing of unhealthful foods and trends including "The Paleo Diet" and many others fads that tout a heavy meat biased guideline and corporate food marketing are now finally a major source of controversy and linked to many health issues and cancer.

If you've always wanted to know how to receive your full protein and nutrients while being a vegetarian but didn't know where to begin, I'm happy to guide you on the journey. Even if your desire is to simply reduce your meat intake but are you are afraid of not getting enough protein, we can tailor a semi plant based nutrient dense meal plan that best suits your needs and body requirements to achieve your goals. 🌱

I believe in biodiversity and a vegetarian or vegan diet may not always be the best option for everyone but increasing plant foods and healthy substitutes to reduce meat protein can make dramatic differences in your overall well being while saving the planet.

ENERGY SHIELD

My whole life I've been super intune with the energy world, thus I can be incredibly sensitive to the energy of the news, my intimate circle, how people treat each other or animals and the many struggles of people in different parts of the world. No matter your personal sensitivity to your energetic field, there is an undeniable web that connects us all. We are currently navigating unchartered waters as a collective and it is easy to tune in to the negative frequencies of fear, worry and toxic situations and people.

Our energy is the key to our happiness, prosperity and all the abundance in the universe and thus must be protected at all costs. During these sensitive times, be more aware of emotions that come up for you around certain people, situations (i.e. watching the news), or even what you are eating or drinking. If negative emotions arise, know that you are tunning in to wider energetic grid around you and it is sending you a signal to switch the channel so to speak. Do not feel bad about cutting ties with people that deplete your energy or do not inspire you to rise. Be vigilant about eating a healthy and clean diet and eliminating processed, refined and toxic foods. Check your thoughts often and make sure you are on the love channel as opposed to fear, worry or lack.

Most importantly I find that a consistent meditation practice that helps you connect to a neutral mind is key to surfing the energetic waves of our current web. Make it a daily practice to tune in, connect to your guides and angels, and the wisdom within you. Ask for help and protection from the celestial realm and know that you are not alone.

If you feel yourself stuck in the muck of lower vibrations, silently or aloud affirm the following mantra; "I now release anything that no longer serves me", and visualize the energy of the situation or person leaving your field. When we are tuned in to the higher frequencies of love, happiness, peace, and compassion we can help heal all others around us as well. #weareallone 💖

DRINK YOUR GREENS

My kind of shots these days... I use @macrolife_naturals powder for days that I can't have fresh pressed green juice which is often. It's one of the best tasting greens powders that you can drink alone or mix in your smoothies.

I absolutely love the taste and often opt to drink it straight. Super refreshing and chalk full of plant based superfoods, vitamins, minerals, and equals 5 servings of fruits and vegetables including 18 billion probiotics. It is also incredibly low in sugar and uses stevia as a sweetener. So happy I found this gem company and greens source to fuel up daily. 💪🌱🌿🍏🍐🥝
