Ever Feel overwhelmed by what you know....????

Ever feel overwhelmed by knowledge? Wish maybe you didn't know what you know? Lately, I have been researching for my presentations it is becoming more and more apparent that Knowledge is Power.  I believe in educating people and then allowing them to make their own decisions if they want to change. That power though can be overwhelming at times. WARNING: don't read any further if you don't want to know. I don't choose to go to McDonald's because of  McDonald's Hamburger has a shelf life of at least 12 years (we have a friend that bought a hamburger and it looks the same now as it did then), I don't take antibiotics, medicine, vaccinate my children (there are other ways to protect besides why would you want your newborn to get an STD shot????) Drugs are toxic to our bodies breaking down the immune system not helping it. Believe me there are side effects even if you don't see them yet.

I was recently talking with someone about their health (we do free consultations) and he was on nebulizer treatments 3X/day(had COPD) as we were talking I said have you read about the possible side effects of those drugs? He commented "NO, I didn't know there were any"......He was an older gentlemen and he was unaware....when I read the side effects of 2 of the 8 drugs he was shocked.....?This was a rare case and most people are looking for alternatives because of the side effects of drugs.  But when he found out he was all ready to take the natural alternative then have to possibly deal with the side effects.  Birth Control is another medicine that has new studies out that show the increase of blood clots and gallbladder problems.  Then have you heard about the controversies surrounding Pepsi products??? Using embryonic cells from aborted fetuses? Why? To enhance flavoring......this is so wrong in every aspect.  Every time I see a Pepsi product now I envision and unborn baby. No matter where you lie on politics you have to admit this is wrong. also found that it did not stop at Pepsi products but is found in a lot more. So there goes Pop, Ocean Spray juice, gummies, and Certs, and much more....not that I drank or ate a lot of these it was nice every so often to be able to.  Here is the website you can visit to learn more about this. List of Products  We all have a choice either use those products or adjust our diets (most of the time for the better) what choice are you going to make?

Knowledge is power and better to be educated then unaware of what could possible hurt my families bodies both physically, mentally, and environmentally.

Have a great day!!!

Wait and See....NOT ME

Wait and See.....Have you ever used this term or maybe heard it? We use it to promise our children if your good we might go to the park.....wait and see.  Guess who is coming....you'll have to wait and see. I got you a gift......wait and see.  This phrase is very personal to me and many that we work with. Sometimes we use the phrase casually and sometimes it is about a life altering event and the Dr. says we have to wait and see what develops ..Your so young it maybe nothing we aren't sure we will have to wait to see.  So in other words your telling me I am waiting for a disease to occur before you can help me?  Endometriosis, uterine fibroids, and cervical dysplasia going into the 4th stage (cancer) This was my wait and see. I wanted to be able to have children, to chase them around the yard (which I can't stop doing now :), to run a marathon, to go on a safari (which we are doing this year), to just have a quality of life as I mature that not many have.  The Dr. didn't tell me I should try the nutrition route.....their answer was to remove everything before something more drastic occurred. So thus began my personal journey to get healthy the right way.  My husband and I started learning about nutrition (diet related and environmental related). Our human bodies are incredible and can heal themselves if you give them what they need.  We now have four beautiful children and a life far beyond what we could have dreamed.

I have had several struggles but day by day I see my life enhance for the better.  Had I waited to see ......there would be no kids, no job at home, no safari, who knows if I would still be alive. What is your wait and see?  Waiting to get the perfect job, have kids, make the money you always dreamed about, buying a house, spending time with the family, going on the trip of a lifetime, working for yourself..A great life is out there waiting for you to just take it.....
Don't wait and see.....Take it.  Always Dream BIG

My husband and I stay at home and work part time to create an income that far exceeds what we ever thought. We are excited about the future and are always looking to help others find physical help as well as financial security.

Guilty Mom - Choices

Do you love your children? How much?  Have you ever had anyone ask you that,  most of us havent.....people don't ask because we observe and most of the time you can tell right?  We get a lot of "How do you do it" or "You certainly must be busy!" ect.  My mom always told me "the choices you make today will affect you for the rest of your life so choose wisely." Even with this wise advise I still sometimes get caught up in the "now" moment....guilty again.
I went grocery shopping after a very long day (Jason was in the ER for 6 hours, sat in the waiting room with all 4 kids) and as I am walking through I am trying to make the right choices.....fruits, vegetables, grains, ect.....trying to hurry as I have 4 hungry children biting at my ankles.  Not the perfect time to go grocery shopping but when is?  We get through that production get back in the van as I am driving passed the fast food section the kids start begging for me to stop .....my brain is fighting  back and forth I started thinking "you want your kids to make the right choices and giving them McDonalds is not a good one....but it would be so easy....I have had such a long day.....it will take me 25 min to make a meal.....I don't want to hear them scream" on and on have you ever experienced this?  I have caved in to this several times. But I keep seeing in my mind the 11 y.o. McDonalds hamburger that has never molded and looks like it was bought today....I dont want anything that would last that long outside going in to my childs body.  Here is a picture of that:

11 year old McDonalds Hamburger with Bun

Here again we are being used as experiments. We dont know exactly where that hamburger comes from, what is in it, what it made out of, and so forth.. but yet we are putting it in our bodies.  Look at it 11 years old....would you eat it?  Course not. But why would we allow our children too? Yuckkk !!! I drove on by and the kids started to whine.  I just told them if they did not whine I would make them a shake when we got home.  They stopped.  Our shakes consist of Shaklee Instant soy/Cinch, Shaklee Meal Shake, Shaklee Physique, organic yogurt, organic milk, fruit, and some homemade whipped cream (once in a blue moon).  I let them put the ingredients in the blender they love it!  We normal have some form of protein at least once a day but sometimes we need a treat and this is easy, economical and the right choice!  Helps keep their blood sugars level and gives them energy (not that they need more but...).  I had picked up some ice cream and that wasnt even asked for that is when I know it good.  That was our supper super easy!!!!!  After the day we had it was  blessing.
