The Cleansing Retreat, Aug 30th - Sept 1st, was a huge success. Thank you to all who attended! Everyone had a fabulous time eating Certified Organic food donated by Forstbauer Natural Food Farm and the Klippinstein Farm. A big THANK YOU to them both for enriching our weekend. Participants were happy to experience an increase in energy, flatter stomach's and an overall positive time with cleansing. Two of us even went on a trail run early one morning, and we still had lots of energy through out the day! The beauty of the Polarity Purifying Cleanse, is it builds your body while cleansing it safely. Another participant found some soreness in her arm disappeared by the end of the weekend. We did Polarity Yoga and Zenergy Exercises daily to assist in the healing process and train our bodies to have a balanced supportive posture. It was great!

Special Announcement:

I am honoured to announce I was selected to be a co-author to a book coming out this December called, Expert Women Who Speak, Speak Out! Vol. 2. There were twelve authors selected through out Canada to participate. We are all Professional Speakers sharing our areas of expertise. Some of the other authors include Olympic athletes, and well recognized experts in their fields. It is an exciting project to be a part of. Watch for the launch of the book this winter!

Health-E Tip: Maximize Your Nutrition
The change of the seasons is the best time of the year to cleanse. Some of the principles we worked with during the cleansing weekend are fabulous habits to have in every day living. They maximize the amount of nutrients you absorb from the foods you eat and eliminate waste.

Here are six of the principles we digested during the weekend retreat:

1. Chew your food completely before you swallow it. Digestion begins in the mouth. Saliva is created when food is chewed. It begins to break the food down for absorption of nutrients.
2. Fully swallow your food and clean your palate before putting more food in your mouth. This practice allows your body time to enjoy the process of breaking down the food. Imagine how hard the body works when food is rushed down as opposed to if it had a moment to ingest the food between each bite.
3. Eat slowly and breathe. Again allow your body time to nourish itself and indulge in the experience of feeding itself.
4. Savour and taste the richness of your food. Notice what you notice as the foods you eat touch your tongue and the nutrition is absorbed from it.
5. Consciously notice your body is like a sponge absorbing all the nutrition from your food.
6. Avoid drinking with your meals. It dilutes your stomach acid that assists in breaking down your food; therefore, your body is working harder than it has to.

Workplace Wellness Tip: Get the Most from Your Lunch!

Be committed to eating a healthy lunch. Include as many vegetables as possible with your meal. Salads, soups, sandwiches (with vegetables), and stirfries are usually endowed with vegetables.

A healthy lunch will:
1. Give you the energy you need to get through the afternoon.
2. Keep you focussed and on task
3. Make you feel good about yourself
4. Help you be more alert
5. Assist you in being the weight you desire to be
6. Give you the energy you want at the end of the day for other activities outside of work
7. Keep you healthy
8. Build your immune system
9. Give you healthy things to talk about
10. Encourage others to eat healthy too. You will be leading by example!

Yummy Recipe: Melt in Your Mouth Swiss Chard

You need:

  • 1 bunch of swiss chard
  • 1-2 cloves of garlic
  • 1 drizzle of olive oil
  • Sea salt

What to do:

  • Chop swiss chard into slices and steam it until cooked. 15 minutes or so is good, depending on how well you like it done.
  • Grate, or press garlic while the swiss chard is steaming.
  • Place the steamed swiss chard on a platter or plate. Sprinkle it with fresh garlic. Follow it up with a drizzle of extra virgin cold pressed olive oil.

Presto, voila, Melt in your mouth Swiss Chard! This is one of my favorite snacks to munch on while I am working at my desk. Sometimes I skip the garlic, too. Either way is delicious!
