Anti-Aging Energy!

Do you feel like you’re slowing down as you get older? Are you noticing that you maybe don’t remember things as readily? Or maybe it’s that slower rise when you’ve been sitting a while. Well, that’s because our NAD levels decline as we age. NAD or nicotinemide adenine dinucleotide is...

New Developments in Healthy Aging!

This is a truly exciting development in anti-aging! As a Registered Massage Therapist, I regularly hear patients talk about their aches, pains, and ailments, assuming they have to accept them as a normal part of aging. But, that is simply not true. There are many things we can do to...

A Natural Way to Rehydrate and Support Muscle Recovery

I thought maybe my new workout program was too easy. My online workout buddies were super sore but, I wasn't feeling anything the day after a workout. Then, I realized it must be the Niyama After Practice Replenish and Repair I've been drinking recently. Niyama After Practice Replenish Pineapple Coconut...

A Sanitizer that Nourishes and Moisturizes 😄

I work in healthcare, so I am washing my hands and using hand sanitizers MULTIPLE times per day! We've been through several different types of hand sanitizers in the clinic this year. Some thick, some watery, some that left my hands sticky, and some that smelled very bad 🙁 The...

Excellent Quality Ethical Cacao ❤️

Who doesn't love chocolate?!? Not all chocolate is made the same though. Cacao and Cocoa both come from cacao beans. With cocoa, the beans are roasted at high temperatures, destroying some of the nutrients. Then, typically, preservatives and additives are included, to cut the natural bitterness. Cacao is minimally processed,...

The First Natural Toothpaste I'm Enjoying! 🤩

I've tried a few natural toothpastes, but until now, haven't been able to get used to the taste or mouth feel of them. And, to be honest, I didn't feel like my teeth were as clean as with traditional toothpastes. Then, I was introduced to Bentodent Earthly Natural Toothpaste, with...

So many uses, so many benefits 💜

Bonnieheath Estate considers permaculture the foundation of their farm, constantly developing synergistic systems for sustainability. They grow their lavender with lots of love and without chemicals, right here in Ontario. All the lavender is grown, hand-harvested, distilled, and bottled on site. I'm thinking this is why their lavender oil and...
