Organic herbal products are something that most grouping do not modify consider. When a person thinks of going to buy herbal products they most likely do not study that some herbs that are utilised are not organic. Many additives are put into supplements that claim to be every natural, and this can defeat the purpose of a person wanting to use herbal remedies to fight their ailments. They are something that the consumer needs to study when they are hunting at using any type of herb.  Organic herbal products have a enthusiastic advantage over their counterparts. When a consumer finds herbal products nonsynthetic in every way, they are finding a true gem. No additives or pesticides have been utilised when creating the herb that they are going to use for ailments or modify cooking.

The one downside is that the personalty haw take longer to feel than those of non nonsynthetic ones.

I spoke at a lecture along with two cardiologists on Heart Health for Women. I didn’t wear a red dress but I had my red dress pin on! (ordered directly from the box tops of Celestial Seasonings tea!). I was grateful to not only be presenting some of my Heart Healthy Home Spa Tips, but to listen to two female cardiologists present current approaches to cardiac care.

It brought back memories of my Intensive Care nursing days. I used to be an assistant head nurse of a fourteen bed Intensive Care unit. Heart attack patients filled a high percentage of our unit. If they weren’t in the unit for postoperative heart surgery, they were there because of a heart attack or a serious disturbance in their heart rhythm. It’s easy to underestimate heart disease and heart damage in people because the person usually doesn’t look any different on the outside. And more often than not people who have heart disease may not even feel any different for a long time preceding an event.

One of the popular questions to these cardiologists was “how do I know I have heart disease if I don’t have any symptoms?”. The physicians answered the key factors such as genetics, blood studies, and medical history. Stress is also a contributory factor in heart disease. And, although we didn’t discuss this at the presentation last week, I believe ‘issue s of the heart’ play a vital role. It’s not unusual that when someone has a heart-breaking situation it can affect their heart. Energetically, that makes a lot of sense.

Here are three simple, easy, and heart healthy tips pleasures that you can do at home! (Isn’t it nice to think of something pleasurable to keep us healthy instead of a restrictive?)

–Soak Your Feet In Epsom Salts…

-add one cup of Epsom Salt to a tub of warm water

-carefully sit on the side of your tub and soak your feet for 12 minutes

Epsom salts are made up of mostly magnesium. Magnesium is an important mineral that most people are deficient in because of our depleted soil. Magnesium is reported to improve heart and circulatory health, reduce irregular heartbeats, preventing hardening of the arteries, reducing blood clots and lower blood pressure. Epsom salt soaks can also help ease stress and improve sleep and concentration.

Some people, no matter what they seem to do, create a waft of a “less than pleasant scent” as they slip off their shoes.Foot odor can be very embarrassing, especially in summer when you feet are not covered as much as they are during other months of the year.The good news is that there are simple things that we can pay attention to that can help rectify this problem, and many of these are solutions we can do at home for ourselves!Here are some tips to prevent or neutralize malodorous feet:

–Don’t wear synthetic socks (polyester) or shoes (man-madematerials).
Feet need to breathe so wear natural fibers like cottons, silks, and leather for shoes.

–Drink a lot of water
Water helps to move toxins from the body. Foot odor can be related to a build up of toxins

–Folks who experience excessive sweating should be medically checked for endocrine imbalances.

–Dust your feet with cornstarch

--Zinc deficiencies sometimes cause body odor

--Frequently alternate shoes that you wear

–Add fresh herbs to your diet.
Eat more parsley, cilantro, cinnamon, oregano, rosemary, licorice

–Drink diluted liquid chlorophyll

–Eat alkalinizing foods (fruits, vegetables, lemon and avoid caffeine and alcohol)

–Deodorize your shoes with sprinkles of activated charcoal, coffee grounds, grass clippings, baking soda, cat litter

–Use essential oils on the bottom of your feet daily.
Tea-tree (melaleuca), lavender, Purification (YL blend)

–Mix lavender (5 drops) with a few tablespoons of baking powder and sprinkle in your shoes.
Let sit overnight and empty out in the morning.

Are you someone who starts doing something and then goes on to another thing, then another, without completing anything you’ve started? (kinda like “disorganized multi-tasking”)When we find ourselves jumping from one thing to another without completing anything, a little voice comes in and says “oh my! I must have adult Attention Deficit Disorder (A.D.D.)!”We don’t give credit to the fact that there is plenty of reason why we feel scattered, because there is:

-- sooo much to do
– sooo many responsibilities
– sooo little time in which to do things

The overwhelm can sendya spinnin’!It might not be that you are lacking in your attention to matters, it might just be that you are lacking in intention.When we feel overwhelmed with responsibility and a long “to-do” list, it’s easy to just want to get through the day and nothing more.Not having meaning or intention connected to daily tasks can set the stage for scattered and unfocused activity.Making a conscious intention for everything we do is a great way to counteract what we think might be A.D.D.For example, fixing a meal for yourself and family. An intention would be “to nourish and feed the body”.But it’s not always easy having enough focused awareness to make an intention for each activity.Here are some steps to create focused awareness in your life:

:- ground the physical body to the earth – a simple bouncing up and down on the heels can do that

:- create conscious reminders next to each item on your “to-do” list with the intention and purpose behind each task

:- make each thought a prayer, an active intention (not a beseeching prayer) until it becomes a habitThere are actually a few (YL) essential oils that can help with this too:

– Valor
– Grounding
– Clarity
– Frankincense
