How to Beat Sugar Cravings

Do you worry that your children aren't getting enough nutrients throughout the day?
I know I do.
With the amount of soccer training Mr 18 and Miss 15 do (including running 6kms once a week and 3kms another day, plus training together and separately in the backyard and at the pitch) and now futsal as well. Not to mention all the dance classes Miss 16 takes. I'm constantly looking for ways to increase their nutrient intake so their bodies recover and grow - and of course, prevent injuries.
Nourish is loaded with superfoods & sprouts for immune system support, mental & physical energy, allergy support, omega-3, 6, 7, & 9, plus it's pH balanced and contains 30 x more nutrition than cooked food!
Do you have any of these symptoms?
It could be a sign of inflammation.
Another one to have on hand in the medicine cabinet.
Cypress essential oil may help with menstrual pain, circulation, swollen feet, excess perspiration, regulating oil production (skin & hair), and cellulite. It may also help with congestion.
Eucalyptus Radiata is primarily an essential oil for the respiratory system. It may help fight infection and may ease flu symptoms.
Eucalyptus Radiata is a strong antiseptic, a good anti-viral and may help energize the body. It may help with chronic fatigue and immune deficiency.
Our Focus Essential Oil blend may be useful when mental alertness is required - such as while driving, studying, or taking tests.
The essential oils in this blend are traditionally used to help retain and retrieve more information from your memory. They may help stimulate the left-brain logical thought processes and may also prevent mental fatigue.
Frankincense has strong anti-inflammatory properties and may reduce joint inflammation associated with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. It may also assist with gut health, and may improve asthma.
HepaDetox is a blend of essential oils that may help the liver detox and also regenerate and rebuild liver cells.
Add 2 to 3 drops to the juice of half a lemon, mix and drink.
The benefits of detoxing include:
Weight Loss & Weight Management

It's so easy to forget to look after yourself when you're running around taking care of everyone else.
Remember to look after yourself this Spring (or Fall).
Silver is a potent, natural, antibiotic and unlike modern pharmaceutical antibiotics, nature's remedy leaves helpful, aerobic pro-biotic bacteria intact.
Are you sick of all the pharmaceutical antibiotic side effects - like
diarrhea, allergic reactions, vomiting, abdominal pain, antibiotic resistance, tooth discoloration, vaginal yeast infections, increased risk of metabolic disorders, adverse impact on immunity, mouth sores, ulcers, blisters, and breathing difficulties?
Just like us, dogs may get itchy skin that can originate from many different causes. No matter the cause, itching is the third most likely reason for pet owners to visit the vet.
Pets manifest itching in a variety of ways. Frequent paw licking is one common way dogs relieve itching. Other, less common signs may include scooting, rolling around on the ground, and crawling on their bellies.
Occasional or mild itching by itself isn't too serious, but it could be a sign of a more serious condition when accompanied by other symptoms. It's always a good idea to consult your veterinary professional if itching becomes chronic, or your animal is breaking its skin, resulting in a secondary infection.
The ingredients in our Itch Relief are: Pogostemon cablin (Patchouli), Lavandula angustifolia (Lavender, fine), Daucus carota (Carrot Seed) Boswellia carteri (Frankincense), Melaleuca quinquenervia bs. viridiflora (Niaouli), Sesamum indicum (Sesame Seed), Cannabis sativa (H**p Seed) Oil
Not to be used on:
Cats: due to their highly sensitive metabolic systems; their livers cannot metabolize terpenes.
Fish and Reptiles: due to their pH levels and aquatic environment.
Birds: due to their respiratory and metabolic systems.
Rodents & small mammals (gerbils, hamsters, rabbits, rats, etc.): there is not enough research on the use of Essential Oils with these animals to determine a safe use.

Our Story...
Living a Healthy Heartful Life came about out of necessity.
We are a busy family of five (two adults and three teens - yes, we are outnumbered!). The oldest and youngest are chasing sporting careers and the middle child is an all-singing, all-dancing, future dramatic superstar.
Unfortunately for the two younger ones (girls), they have inherited my allergies and food intolerances. Neither can tolerate dairy and the youngest can’t digest gluten either.
In fact, due to her intolerances and hectic sporting schedule, the youngest (13) ended up in hospital for 10 days last year. She had the heart rate of an elderly man and had lost seven kilograms.
