☯♥☮ Thanksgiving Holiday Newsletter ~ How To Feel Great on Thanksgiving and After!

Dear Holistic Health & Natural Healing ☯♥☮ Friends & Fans,

Excited for Thanksgiving?

Looking forward to spending time with family and friends?

Or maybe, some extra time for yourself to reflect and meditate on giving and receiving thanks?

Here are 10 tips that are certain to make your Thanksgiving more relaxed and enjoyable!

1. Eat organic and free-range, whenever possible to avoid post-Thanksgiving 'haze'

2. Eat leafy greens, root vegetables, nuts, seeds and whole grains with your meals or for snacks to stabilize insulin levels from carbs, sugars, and large quantities of food

3. Drink herbal digestive teas like chamomile, mint, parsley, or green tea after meals

4. Keep plain seltzer water on hand to relieve slight, discomfort from overeating

5. Take gentle, refreshing walks between meals to encourage blood flow, digestion, and connection with nature

6. Do some gentle stretches in the morning, upon waking and evening, before bed

7. Make time to give thanks, even while at the mall, sitting in traffic, or watching football

8. Keep stressful conversations out of meal-time chatting

9. Do an extra act of kindness for a stranger or someone in need

10. Pace yourself--there are alot more meals and holidays just around the bend!

Happy, Holistic Thanxgiving to all!

Peace, Love & Healing,

~Jen

☯♥☮ Colds, Flus, H1N1 ~ Special Edition Holistic Health & Natural Healing Newsletter, 11/11/09

Do you feel protected and ready for the height of cold and flu season? Are you in the know about H1N1/'Swine' Flu? Have you read differing opinions as to what's best for you, your family, and your community when selecting cold and flu care options? Are you aware of natural ways to help protect, prevent, and heal children from colds and flu? There are many, gentle, natural, healthy, and amazing ways to strengthen the immune system, boost cold & flu prevention, and heal related illness more rapidly.
Here are a few examples:

*Herbal Teas: Rosehips, hibiscus, lemongrass, peppermint, spearmint, chicory, cinnamon, cloves

*Cooking Spices & Herbs: Oregano, thyme, basil, garlic, onion, ginger, black, white, or red pepper, cumin, curry, paprika

*Fruits With Vitamin C: Grapefruit, orange, lemon, lime, tangerine, satsuma, kumquat, mango, papaya, pineapple, tomato

*Leafy, Green Vegetables: Cabbage, broccoli, mustard greens, collard greens, spinach, mixed lettuces

*Sour, Spicy, and Pungent Foods: Turnips, radishes, celery, horseradish, jalapeno, chile peppers, ume plum, pickles, prunes

*Foods That Keep Mucus Membranes Moist & Protected: Avocado, vegetable/seed/& nut oils, whole grains, milk fats, animal fats, honeys, maple syrups, fruit pectins

*Liquids That Cleanse The Organs: Water, fruit & vegetable juices such as cranberry, carrot, apple, cucumber and all vinegars

*Sea Salt: Sea salt is a natural antimicrobial, blood/organ cleanser, and immune booster

*Vitamin Therapy: Taking a natural multi-vitamin can be helpful, especially, to those who are immunocompromised

*Aromatherapy creams, baths gels, or air scents with lavendar, rosemary, rosewater, tea tree oil, vanilla

*Herbal poultices and cloths to reduce fever: The skin is the largest organ on the human body! Herbal poultices pull disease out and release healing agents inward

*Homeopathy: Homeopathics give us a minute doseage of an ingredient that is very energetically, potent to our system and can help to free us from sickness, illness residues, and stagnant energies

*Feng Shui: Home cleaning to rid house of clutter, dust, stale energies and create movement

*Healing Touch: Massage, Accupressure, Accupuncture, Reiki, Rolfing to keep muscles and meridians clear relaxed and clear

*Emotional cleansing to keep throat and heart chakras/energies joyous

*Wash hands frequently: Among the best ways to keep infections down

*Stay relaxed and have fun! The primary, cause of illness to the body is stress. Adding more downtime, meditation, regular exercise, yoga, music, games, and outdoor recreation are great ways to keep the body, mind, heart, and spirit relaxed and cleansed.

Remember, colds and flus are part of our healing journies! However, if we feel prepared and act, wisely, we are sure to have the best outcome.

Natural healing is fun and nourishing to us whether we are kids or adults...

Keeping an open mind heals us faster!
