Thoughtful Thursday

      Happy Thursday. I can't believe that not only is it Fall but this is the last Thursday of the month. That means that next week will not only be October but there will be three months left in 2020. I know that most of us are ready for 2021 to come sooner than later with the way this year has been going. I've been busy trying to finish all these course. Yes, I'm still watching all the courses I bought. I think I bought like 15-20 that I bought between last December & now so I've finally made a dent in them. Plus, I officially started to learn a new language. I can understand what people are saying to me pretty well but actually speaking it is a different story. Other than that, just the usual of trying to find a job still, figuring out my health stuff little by little, & trying to get enough sleep. 

Anywho, here are some thoughts/quotes for today. I finally finishes Flawers so his next book is where many of the quotes from October are going to come from.

     

Going to try to post regularly again. I guess I have to post on social media too... Social media is still getting on my nerves still so we'll see if that happens sometime before September ends. Until next time, Peace & Blessings, all!!!

Fitness Tuesday: Herb Pharm Supplements

       Happy Tuesday!! I had to take off sometime because in all honesty, social media has been getting on my nerves lately. I think it's a variety of things causing the discontent with it. I have a love/hate relationship with the influencer & social media fields in general but, that's life. Anywho, for the last two years, I have been taking supplements outside of all the other medication that I take. I've tried a few different brands but found that Herb Pharm is one of the better ones for liquid herbal extracts. These are the few that I have been using on a regular basis:

Ginger

Ginger helps with your cardio health plus with increasing brain function. I sometimes put ginger in warm water with lemon in the morning. I like the liquid better because it does not leave a grainy texture from not dissolving like powder ginger. Their extract comes from the rhizome of Certified Organic plants. The ginger is harvested when fully mature, shade-dried, then extracted. They use sliced Ginger, as opposed to powdered, which helps it retain its pungent aroma. It is suggested to add 1 full squeeze of the dropper bulb to 2 oz. of water or juice, 2 to 5 times per day. Best taken between meals.

Relaxing Sleep

-Relaxing Sleep features valerian  along with passionflower prepared from the flowering herb, that consist of the leaf, flower & stem. They suggest that you add 1 full squeeze of the dropper bulb to 2 oz. of water or juice, 1 hour before bed and again at bedtime. May be taken up to 4 times per day for general relaxation.* Best taken between meals.

Milk Thistle

Milk thistle helps with improving your liver function. Their milk thistle comes from dried whole seeds. They use a double-extraction process which creates a more concentrated extract. It is then extracted in small batches with Certified Organic cane alcohol for potency. It is suggested to add 1 full squeeze of the dropper bulb to 2 oz. of water or juice, 2 to 4 times per day. Best taken between meals.

Ashwagandha

 Ashwagandha can help with endurance & in lowering blood sugar levels. The plant's root is harvested at the peak of readiness, & shade-dried to retain its full color & aroma, then is thoroughly extracted. The herb is revered in Ayurvedic traditions. It is suggested to add 1 full squeeze of the dropper bulb to 2 oz. of water or juice, 2 or 3 times per day. Best taken between meals.

Turmeric

Tumeric aids in alleviating swelling & inflammation. The whole Turmeric fingers or sliced rhizome is imported from its native regions. They mill whole or sliced rhizomes at the last moment before extraction. The herb has a long history in Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Herbalism.
It is suggested that you add 1 full squeeze of the dropper bulb to 2 oz. of water or juice, 2 to 5 times per day. Best taken between meals.

I actually have an essential oil & herbal book with different recipes. In the future, I may post a few of the recipes that I've tried from the book. If anyone else out there takes any herbal supplements from other companies, I would love to know about them & why you like them. Until next time, Peace & Blessings all.
