Transform Your New Year with Our Special Tradition

Season’s greetings!

Amidst the holiday cheer, I’m excited to share with you a personal tradition that Dean-the-dream and I have implemented since 2018. It’s different from the usual festive fun, but trust me, the rewards are immense! We’ve been kickstarting each year with a special detox – a tradition that’s not just another holiday activity, but a true game-changer for our health.

This isn’t about quick detox drinks or intense fasts. We’re talking about a detox that truly respects and rejuvenates your body, and that’s important because not all detox methods are equally beneficial.

The truth is we’re all being exposed to historic levels of new toxins. (As if our air, water, food, pharma, and products aren’t already clogging up our organs of elimination.)

Yes, our bodies have miraculous systems of detoxification – but they’re overwhelmed! This is exactly why Dean and I chose to start our detox tradition, and why it might just be the perfect time for you to also join this journey towards rejuvenation.

My colleague Robyn Openshaw, the GreenSmoothieGirl, has studied human detoxification for 29 years for 10,000 hours (more time than she spent studying for her advanced degrees combined), including the time she spent studying with holistic doctors and professionals around the world.

Her GreenSmoothieGirl Detox has influenced over 19,000 lives, over the past 11 years, including mine!

Robyn believes that all her time and work is paying off, because, in 2024, EVERYONE needs to do a dedicated, science-based detoxification program more than ever! Everyone she talks to seems to be stressed, lacking energy, and dealing with health challenges.

She wants to help as many people as possible. Your first step is to watch her Detox Secrets Video Series.

She’s distilled all her knowledge, giving people a chance to learn the EASY way. And she’s opening it to my community — for FREE! — for this month only. Join today to discover the truth about detoxification.

Because what you learn could lead to unbelievable results (for you and for the people you care about).

Like dropping weight where you need to? Yes, participants see this, but also much, much more–where weight loss is just a byproduct of truly cleaning up your temple. She sent me a bunch of testimonials, and I’m blown away!

“I feel great. I have lost not only 12.5 pounds —

but fat, too. My love handles/muffin top are gone.

I feel like this program has benefited all aspects of my life.”

— Chantel H., Idaho Falls, Idaho

One thing is for sure:

The body wasn’t meant to deal with the level of highly processed foods and harmful chemicals it’s exposed to these days.

Yes, the body was meant to protect you. But the crazy-high levels of stuff your body must deal with daily is just too much.

Toxins — and the leftovers from unhealthy choices — build up in the body.

And then, they deplete your IMMUNE system. And it all just gets worse from there.

I learned a ton from Robyn’s videos. And I want you to discover these Detox Secrets.

Here’s what you can expect:

  • The 7 types of toxicity — and how to eliminate them, for good
  • Why detoxing (the right way) could finally give you the permanent weight loss you’re seeking
  • The 8 most detoxifying foods — and the 11 most toxic foods (some of these might surprise you)
  • Why detoxing the right way is about MORE than the physical results you’ll experience

>> Join Robyn’s Detox Secrets Video Series. Because it’s only open for my community until the end of the month!

I’m cheering you on!

P.S. Robyn runs her GreenSmoothieGirl Detox online with a group of thousands every January. Here are just a few of the hundreds of glowing testimonials people send her about her science-based Detox program:

“I have done other ‘cleanses,’ but this is by far the best. Thank you, Robyn, for putting in the time, effort, and love to research the ‘best of the best’ programs and put together a useful, DOABLE detox/cleanse for us ‘average’ people, and continually being a source of inspiration, education and, above all, support!” — Karen H., Las Vegas, Nevada

“I absolutely loved the GSG detox program! It was well thought out, comprehensive, informative, and practical. I would highly recommend participating in the full-support option because the additional videos, pre-recorded talks with experts, and the live Q&A calls were invaluable to my success.” — Holly V., Gig Harbor, Washington

Pumpkin Pie Energy Balls

/0 Comments/in /by

For a little shot of energy today, I’m sharing one of my favorite treats!
And since it’s Autumn in the USA, I’m adding in some ‘fall’ flavor!

Energy BallsPumpkin Pie Energy Balls

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • A drizzle of pure maple syrup
  • 1 Tablespoon pumpkin spice
  • Handful of raisins OR mini chocolate chips (or both!)

Instructions:
Mix well together. Cover the bowl and place in fridge for about an hour.
Remove and roll your mixture into balls. (If they feel too sticky, add in a little more oats).
Try not to eat too many at once (heh, heh) and store them in the fridge in an air tight container.

But wait, here’s the fun part…OPTIONS, lots of options!
Swap out the peanut butter for almond, cashew, or any type of nut butter (natural is always best)
In place of the chocolate chips use carob chips
You can also use gluten-free rolled oats
Dried cranberries instead of raisins
Throw in some pumpkins seeds or chopped walnuts or pecans
I often add unsweetened coconut flakes in mine-or roll the balls in it.
You can swap out the maple syrup for honey (if you’re not vegan)
Add in chia, flax, or hemp seeds.
Add in extra cinnamon or nutmeg to your liking
Add in cocoa powder or cacao

With all these options, every time I make these they come out differently depending on what ingredients I have on hand.

This weekend might be a fun time to make up a
batch with your own choice of ingredients.
Have fun with it!

And did you know? Pumpkin is rich in Vitamin A (anti aging!) and is full of antioxidants. It’s also rich in riboflavin, plus it has lots of folate, which is critical to our immune systems.

This beautiful orange veggie (gourde? squash?) also has vitamin C, beta carotene, and it’s packed with fiber, very low in calories, and contains no cholesterol.

Wow, now that will raise your vibe!

Simple Breathing Exercise

Simple Breathing Exercise

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hey…got a minute?
For today’s Energy Shot I invite you to try this simple breathing exercise
4-7-8 breathing.

And seriously, I timed myself and it only took me 55 seconds
to do the whole thing!

We all know the benefits of deep breathing…

for our body:
deep breathing calms anxiety
it releases stress
it slows the heartbeat
it lowers blood pressure
it helps keep the immune system strong

for our mind:
deep breathing connects mind and heart
it brings us back to center
it helps us feel grounded
it quiets our mind
it allows us to disengage from distracting thoughts
it brings clarity and calm

So I hope you’ll take a minute and try this out:

Sitting down with your back straight
place one hand on your belly
and the other on your chest

Your belly should push your hand out when you inhale
and your belly should go in as you exhale.
This is a healthy way to breathe as it is from the diaphragm,
the way a baby’s belly naturally expands as he/she inhales.

Place the tip of your tongue on your upper palate,
on the ridge right behind your two front teeth, and
try to keep it there throughout this exercise.

Next exhale with an open mouth to let all the air out.

Now you’re all set up and ready to begin.

The next part is easy, it goes like this:
inhale quietly through your nose for a count of four
hold the breath for a count of seven
and exhale strongly to the count of eight making a
whooshing sound, and pushing out as much air as
possible for the last 3-4 counts. Pursing your lips helps,
because remember you are still holding the tip of tongue
on roof of your mouth.

Repeat three more times for a total of four breath cycles.

Dr. Andrew Weil (renown holistic health expert)
who prescribes this for his clients says to do this at least
twice a day, but never more than four breath cycles at a time.

He says doing this consistently over time can
Lower heart rate and blood pressure
Improve digestion
Eliminate insomnia
Relieve anxiety
and calls it a “natural tranquilizer for the nervous system”

WOW!
It’s simple, quick & easy to do, and can make powerful changes.

Don’t you just love how our bodies respond to simple, natural
methods so effortlessly?
