Many of us love shopping and I am no exception!I have learned to make shopping for good food fun! It's not only about eating greens but look at the colors, the textures, the smells of the various food.
This morning my client wanted to learn more about eating healthy. I jumped at the chance to take her shopping for this weeks groceries. She was so excited because she is learning a ton about organic food, locally grown food as well as foods that will make her feel great inside and out.
4 bags and 2 hours later we finished our shopping.
The best part was that I also did health counseling to and from the store. I can tell you this is a great way to bond with each other and have a good time!

OIL Pulling
This is the strangest modality(method) I have ever heard but it is actually good for you!
Oil pulling is based on ayurvedic principles and for the last 10 days, I have been swishing oil in my mouth to get rid of a tooth infection. It is crazy but it is working! The dentist said that I am healing faster than he thought I would. Oil pulling pulls the toxins out of the body.
It is said that teeth are whiter, tooth infections disappear or are less, more energy, healthier digestion and more relaxed and sleep has improved.
I am going to try it for another month and will let you know how I feel!
Happy swishing and yes it is not the most pleasant! (infact, it sounds disgusting!)
OK so this is what you do.
1 tablespoon of sunflower, coconut, sesame, or flax oil. (cold pressed if you can)
I alternate between sunflower and flaxseed.
Swish in your mouth for 15 to 20 minutes and get rid of it.The oil will turn white when you are finished swishing.
Please don't swallow it because it contains toxins.
Rinse with warm water
Brush your teeth.
Do not eat for 4 hours prior to swishing!

MORNING PAGES
In order to retrieve your creativity, you need to find it. I ask you to do this by an apparently pointless process I call the morning pages.........Julia Cameron
Julia Cameron is an amazing, creative person and during the 2 hours she spoke at IIN, I made a conscious decision to try morning pages. Today, I look forward to writing every morning.
What are morning pages?
Morning Pages are three pages of longhand, stream of consciousness writing, done first thing in the morning. Guess what- it doesn't matter what you say, how you say it and it is all yours. Keep it to yourself!
How have they helped my life?
I look forward to writing every morning and start my day on a positive note because I let go of what I could have held on to all day. I let the thoughts go and flow on to the pages in my journal.
And guess what, my hips are smaller so I must be releasing the old fears. THANK YOU morning pages and Julia Cameron for your wisdom.
Book: "The Artist Way" Check it out if you like to write or journal. Enjoy your creative journey.
