Greens on the go!


Hi everyone! I am still in Nosara, Costa Rica. My parents left yesterday morning, and my Heartrise Children's Yoga Teacher Training begins this evening. The energy has shifted from vacation to work, as I will be assisting on this training. However, as Tamika and Carolyn so accurately described, it is the type of work that literally 'gives you goosebumps'. I am very grateful to be a part of this!



So, as I've posted, Costa Rica is full of healthy food, such as tropical fruits, but the only thing that's somewhat lacking is the quantity of GREENS! When I'm back home, I'm chigging wheatgrass or green juices throughout the day. I still have amazing energy and clarity when I'm here, but greens are a very important piece of the nutrition puzzle. The only greens readily available here in Nosara are spinach and lettuce. I actually visited an organic farmer's market yesterday morning (every Saturday AM here in Nosara), and they had mustard greens. I bought all of them, of course. Mustard greens are extremely bitter though, but I was just so happy to see something green and leafy (don't mind me). Anyway... if you are ever nervous about not getting your 'fill' of greens while travelling ANYWHERE, I strongly encourage you to experiment with Vitamineral Green (http://http//www.healthforce.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=garden_flypage.tpl&product_id=6&category_id=1&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=65).



It is a 100% Truganic (beyond oragnic) powder which is 100% synthetic free. It supports blood sugar, detoxification, the immune system, liver, kidneys, blood, bones, colon, regularity, circulation, and longevity. It contains ingredients from nature, such as broccoli juice, kale juice, parsley juice, ginger root, chickweed, spiruline, chlorella, enzymes, and probiotics. Sound appetizing? Well, it TASTES good too! I usually put it in a smoothie or a coconut water. If all you have is water, I suggest adding some stevia. I feel on top of the world after I drink it. Maybe it's in my head. Why don't you try it and let me know? You can order it online or you can find it at Live Live on 10th Street in Manhattan.






CHEERS!
