The Power of Setting Your Intention

We carry the power within us to create our bliss. We often underestimate how much our own thoughts can dictate how we progress on our path. Since I have been on my journey I've had the pleasure if studying and reading the works of great spiritual guides. I first heard of the concept of setting your intention from Dr. Wayne Dyer. He speaks a lot about choosing who we want to be and how we want to feel by using affirmations. Speak kindly to yourself. We have tendency to abuse ourselves mentally. As easy at is to tell yourself, I'm a loser, I'm a bad person, I'm a failure, switch that language in your head. I'm an amazing person, I'm a kind person, I will be successful, I have the power within me to change the world. Speak your Truth to yourself and I promise you, you will see a change in your life. You have the power within you to create your destiny. That's why we are here. The Universe wants you to be successful and achieve your souls goals. If you are true to your path, you will know it. Your light will shine through, you will glow, things will be easier because you are walking the right way. Everyday I set my intention for myself. It can be anything, small or large that you want to accomplish for the day. Today I will not overeat. Today I will say one kind thing to everyone I come in contact with. You will be amazed how something so simple can change the course of your entire day! Speak kindly to yourselves and love yourselves. Peace & Balance.

The Wonderful World of Wheatgrass!

As I continue (or begin) my journey of holistic health and wellness, I keep making amazing discoveries of the gifts nature has given us. The ultimate favorite on my list is wheatgrass. I discovered wheatgrass about a year ago and since then i have been obsessed with this miracle plant! Wheatgrass is easily accessible, affordable, and I love finding new and delicious ways to get it down. the most common form to find wheatgrass in is liquid, it's usually juiced. Super trendy spots that are health and exercise conscious sometimes have wheatgrass shots for sale,since it is considered a Superfood. However, when I first began my research on wheatgrass I wanted to get my hands on some ASAP! Unfortunately it wasn't that easy. I found a few roadblocks in the Philly area. I couldn't find anywhere that sold wheatgrass plants, or even sold it juiced for that matter. After visiting a local co-op Weaver's Way, http://weaversway.coop/, I finally discovered the powdered version. It is made by a brand called Amazing Grass,the drink powder is USDA organic, gluten free,vegan, and raw.
I don't even know where to begin with the numerous benefits of this green wonder. Injesting helps to detoxify and cleanse your body. It increases and sustains energy naturally. A much better alternative than caffine riddled products. Mix the powder in with a homemade smoothie to give an energetic start to your day. It is also super high in alkalinity and helps to balance your body's Ph level. It stengthens your immune systems and the insoluble fiber cleanses your digestive tract and promotes regularity. For some a whatgrass shot can bbe difficult to take, I love the grassyness of it but others find it hard to get it dowm. It is simple to find ways to mix it into a great tasting drink!
The antioxidants found in wheatgrass help to repair damaged cells, it is a source of beta carotene, folic acid and vitamin C.
Basically, it's amazing and you should go out and find some today!
If you are in the Philadelphia area check out, The Wheatgrass Grower, http://www.wheatgrassgrower.com/aboutus.html. I try to support locally as much as I can and this woman's story and spirit had me sold from the beginning. Her life has been completely changed from this simple plant.

Be spiritually and physically nourished.
