You need a sustainable solution to keep the weight off.
Losing weight is about adopting healthy habits.

you have a lifestyle problem.

Do you need a tribe to keep you focused on healthy, lifetime changes?

What Is R3? R3 stands for Reset, Reintroduce, and Real Life. 
It’s a six-week program designed to help anyone reset their metabolism, establish proper hunger patterns, break food addictions, and shift from fat-storing mode into fat-burning mode while enjoying real food for the rest of their lives. And all this is done without counting calories, weighing food, or eliminating entire food groups. 

R3 has a Yes List and a No List of foods to eat or avoid. These simple lists are followed strictly during the first two weeks of the program. During subsequent weeks, participants learn how and when to add foods from the No List back into their diet in healthy ways that won’t sabotage their weight loss goals.

It’s BBQ Season

It’s hot and sizzling…time for BBQ! So, what’s a BBQ without the best beef you can get?
I have been buying this amazing beef for more than a year now and haven’t been disappointed.

If you try this brand, you will never go back to store bought beef.

Trust me! It’s that good!

Welcome Allergy Season

Everyone loves saving money! Well, most people do. So, in the interest of saving money and staying healthy, I thought I’d pass on the savings tip!
Personally, I believe allergy sufferers (like me) deserve cost-effective treatment options. Which is why I buy from the Online Wellness Store.
When it comes to healthier and more cost-effective allergy solutions, this is one pharmaceutical grade solution for me and my family’s health care needs.

SOME “SECRET” TIPS FOR YOUNGER LOOKING SKIN!

hayseedscreative's avatar by Leave a comment

I’ve been in the Wellness Industry for almost 20 years, but before that, I was in the Beauty Industry for 16 years. Believe it or not, the two industries are incredibly related! When you take the steps to living a healthy life every day, the results show on your skin.

Many women have the goal to look as young as they can for as long as they can, and while I always maintain that feeling and looking younger starts from the inside, we still need to take care of our skin on the outside. So many people want quick, easy answers to looking younger. Unfortunately, there is no “secret” or simple trick. But here are some simple steps to follow that can help you have younger looking skin!

AM Routine

  1. Cleanse. I use a Vitamin C Cleanser because that vitamin C and Citric Acid help with age spots, discoloration and dull skin (something that happens as we age.
  2.  Tone. Toning is critical because all cleansers (even a bar of soap) changes your PH balance. Toners bring your skin back to its ph balance. I use one that I can spray on so it’s super easy and refreshing.
  3. Serum. Serums can do a variety of things: refine skin texture, reduce fine lines and boost moisture levels to plump aging skin. Personally I rotate a variety of serums to counteract the aging process.
  4. Moisturize. Don’t take this step for granted. Again, I rotate these but my favorite has prebiotics and probiotics to help to help fight free radicals that cause damage.
  5. Eye serum. The area around our eyes is very delicate. One of my favorite eye serums has Bakuchiol as one of the ingredients. Bakuchiol has been scientifically researched to significantly improve collagen production.
  6. Sunscreen. Sunscreen should be a SEPARATE STEP from skincare and kept out of your moisturizers and foundations. When manufacturers add sunscreen to those products, they have to remove certain ingredients that we NEED because these ingredients, when combined, cancel each other out.

PM Routine
Your PM routine is CRITICAL because that’s when your skin repairs itself. First, do NOT sleep in your makeup!.

  1. Cleanse. A foaming cleanser is a great product to use at night because the emollients will help to cut through the extra oil and makeup from the day!
  2. Tone. Toning is critical because all cleansers (even a bar of soap) changes your PH balance. Toners bring your skin back to its ph balance. I recommend using one that can be sprayed on so it’s super easy and refreshing.
  3. Serum. As stated before, serums can do refine skin texture, reduce fine lines and boost moisture levels to plump aging skin. It’s often a good idea to rotate a variety of serums to counteract the aging process.
  4. Moisturize. I can’t say enough about moisturizing your skin! It is fundamental. I recommend using a heavier moisturizer at night since the skin is at rest and can benefit from the extra attention.
  5. Eye cream. Since the skin around the eyes is probably the thinnest skin on the body. It’s often a good idea to use an eye serum followed by a heavier eye cream at night. 

Consistency is key in all things, and skin care is no different. But shop carefully. Department store brands charge so much more because of expensive packaging, advertising and endorsements. Those add-ons do not make your products work any better!

A quick comparison

hayseedscreative's avatar by Leave a comment

Of laundry detergents.

First, let me mention the the only thing these two brands have in common is that they both wash the same number of loads.
96 loads — and that’s as far as it goes. The size difference is due to water. You’re paying for all the extra water in the package when you buy big name brands!

Not only that…

• The one on the left is powered with natural plant enzymes, is non-toxic and eco-friendly.

• The one on the right is filled with chemicals that can make you and your family sick.

• The one on the right costs 28 cents per load while the eco-friendly option is 19 cents per load! A difference of nine cents. Its may seem small potatoes, but just one load per week adds up. Besides, who really only does one load per week? My tiny package lasts me 11 months (I’m a one person plus chihuahua household) an average of two loads per week. An estimated savings of $187 on just detergent in 20 years. I think these products, detergent, fabric softener and brightener have helped my asthma over the years. With no formaldehyde or other harmful chemicals when compared to the brand-name laundry products I have been breathing easier for the past 20 years using Mela Power and companion products.

If you’ve thought about shopping for EcoSense solutions, but think that it somehow wouldn’t be worth it, or it would be too complicated, my advice is to just see for yourself!

I’m so confident… if you don’t love it, I’ll eat my socks!

It Matters

I have an interesting WHY IT MATTERS list I can send that may surprise you!

The Heat is on!

How safe and effective is your sunscreen?
Did you know that not all sunscreens are created equal?

Here’s why I only buy from the the Wellness Store:
It’s Made and Manufactured right here in the USA.

Why is a 𝗠𝗜𝗡𝗘𝗥𝗔𝗟 𝗦𝗨𝗡𝗦𝗖𝗥𝗘𝗘𝗡 good for you?
Mineral sunscreens don’t contain:
• harsh synthetic chemicals
• aren’t absorbed into your skin
• they’re safer for sensitive skin.

The American Academy of Dermatology recommends that people with sensitive or acne-prone skin opt for mineral sunscreens.

So, if you’re looking for a sunscreen that is all-natural and/or reef-safe, mineral is the way to go. I know mine is safe, is yours?

Magnesium and Anxiety

hayseedscreative's avatar by Leave a comment

The correlation between magnesium and anxiety is so strong that researchers can intentionally induce anxiety in lab animals by depriving them of magnesium. Cruel, I know….but it’s true.

Magnesium is critical for hundreds of metabolic functions, yet fewer than half of us get adequate magnesium from the food we eat and most choose a low absorbing form. 

Low levels of magnesium in the body can increase stress, and high levels of physical or mental stress can lower magnesium. So supplementing is critical.

When purchasing a magnesium supplement, look for:

  • Maximum Bioavailability (If it doesn’t say it, it doesn’t have it)
  • Added B6 for better absorption (read the label)

I love mine because it’s a powder instead of a capsule, so I just toss it in my lemonade! If you need help with trusted resources, let me know!

You Don’t Know Until You Know…

then you do better!

Twenty years ago I ditched toxic cleaners and household products. I had no idea how harmful they were until my toddler nephew came close to getting into the cabinet under the sink—you know, the one where you keep all of your cleaning products.

Even with safety latches in place and near constant supervision he came close to being seriously harmed or possibly worse.

Every day reputable studies are telling us how dangerous the ingredients in our cleaners and personal products are. What are you waiting for? I don’t care what company or products you switch to, I just want you to switch!

Check out this study that was forwarded to me today by a friend. Click Here

Spring into Summer Cleaning

hayseedscreative's avatar by Leave a comment

What a perfect time to make the switch and go green. Why? The proof is there. Studies by the EPA, CDC, NIH and especially the Lung Study. Here are some findings from that study:

  • Weekly use of national brand home cleaners are as damaging to lungs as smoking a pack of cigarettes a day for 20 years
  • Women are affected more than men
  • Cleaning at home is just as harmful as being an occupational cleaner, if not more so
  • Liquid cleaners are just as dangerous as sprays
  • Dangerous chemicals, including ammonia, bleach and quaternary disinfectant compounds appear to be primary culprits
  • Women who regularly use cleaning products have increased rates of asthma
  • Damage is cumulative over time

Unfortunately, some products are marketed as green when they really aren’t. And then products that you touch everyday, like your Dawn dish soap have FORMALDEHYDE in them. What touches your skin is absorbed by the skin!

This is one of the easiest steps to creating a healthy home! Let me help you!
