Recharging Through Summer: with The Correct Fluid Intake!
As
the weather heats up this Summer, exercising and eating
well can help maintain your energy levels and keep you
looking and feeling great, as long as you're well hydrated.
Get moving With the sun out, Summer is a great time
to recharge and get motivated to exercise more. You
may find it easier to get your 30 minutes of activity
daily, or even turn 30 minutes into 60 minutes with
a few longer sessions. Try some great Summer activities
like swimming, aqua aerobics, tennis, walking or bike
riding.
Top up your fluids When it's hot outside or you spend
time in air conditioning or exercising, the body loses
more fluid than usual. Staying hydrated makes it easier
for your body to maintain energy levels and maintain
your body temperature. Even mild dehydration can cause
serious side effects, such as headache, tiredness and
light headedness, and dry, flushed skin1.
What to drink and how much Fluids from your favourite
drinks such as water, juice, cordials, milk, soft drink,
tea and coffee all count toward your daily requirements,
though water should make up the majority of your total
fluid intake for the day.
When you're in the sun or exercising it's important
to keep your fluids up even if you're not thirsty. Aim
for 2.1 Litres a day for women and 2.6 Litres a day
for men 2, more if you're spending a lot of time in
hot weather or if exercising. Carrying a water bottle
with you will help you reach your fluid needs easily.
Fresh tastes
Summer is a great time for fresh, light meals and refreshing
drinks. Try adding crushed or shaved ice to turn your
favourite drinks into Summer slushies, or use the natural
goodness of Summer fruits like berries, apricots, nectarines,
peaches and plums, lychees, grapes, mango, pineapple
and passionfruit blended with spring water and plenty
of ice for fresh, fruity smoothies.

Happy
Ears, Ear Candles:Cleaner, Quicker!
Made of unbleached cotton, 100% Beeswax & infused with
Propolis.
Ear candles are an ancient, universal form of therapy
used by nations all around the globe, from China to
Italy, its origin is unknown.
In ancient times cone shaped instruments made from pottery
clay were used. The cones had a double helix carved
inside to create a downward spiral energy flow of the
smoke and heated air. Now due to health regulations
we have to use disposable candles.
Happy Ears ear candles are cone shaped. The spiral of
the cone causes the smoke & propoli vapours to be pulled
down into the ear canal. This causes the ear canal to
warm up and the wax to soften. As it heats up, the candle
burning creates a vacuum in the ear canal. The vacuum
draws out the wax and any waste material from the ear
canal into the base of the candle, where it collects
on the filter. For ear candles to work effectively you
must create a seal around the base of the candle & the
ear canal opening. Both ears should be treated, one
after the other.
It is a painless, harmless and totally relaxing experience.
If it weren't for the crackling and hissing sounds,
due to the burning of the waste deposits you would never
know anything was happening to your ear. When it's all
over you may want to unroll the remaining candle to
look at the 'gory' wax that has collected on the filter.
Happy Ears ear candles have a band around them indicating
when to extinguish the flame. Our ear candles also come
with a disc to reflect the heat away & simple instructions
to guide you.

Cellular Memory Release, Mudage & Valley Vistas:
with www.stressbusters.com.au!
Valley
Vistas was created 8 years ago by Mary Groves with naturally
happy stress management in mind. Those were the days
when 'Stress' was not acknowledged as the root of most
illness, as it is today. The retreat was designed as
your affordable alternative; for those who were not
inclined or could not afford the time required to attend
regular health retreats. Today this boutique still offers,
bed and breakfast accommodation, fabulous views, and
is a great hideaway to relax and unwind with home-style
food and pampering therapies.
The premium therapies offered at the retreat are firstly
the Mudage. The best way to explain Mudage is
sheer bliss! As Paula says, we use only the finest,
silkiest Dead Sea mud to paint your body from head to
toe. Following this is a 20min detox and a hot towel
exfoliation, before the most sensational, pampering
moisturizing massage and facial by two most attentive
therapists. What's your idea of Bliss? .
Mary explains her signature therapy is C M R or Cellular
Memory Release- 'Because we are having such wonderful
and positive results with the CMR, I have decided to
concentrate entirely on providing that and Mudage as
future therapies. Clients of all ages and stages, from
all walks of life are empowered when the energetic blockages,
memories or considerations are removed, allowing them
a more enjoyable, thus healthy way of life. Major life
changes are possible. .
This gentle process is the ultimate relaxation and meditation.
Everyone's experience is different, but generally people
experience a deep alpha state and the feeling of floating.
Some have euphoric and others quite visible physical
releases. This is a process that can be used successfully
prior to your stressed condition taking control of your
life. When people come to me stressed and confused,
I naturally suggest C.M.R'.

The
Most Important Organ: with Back to Balance Colonics!
THE
MOST IMPORTANT ORGAN
One
day. The body organs got together and decided to have
a board meeting. Here's what went on behind closed doors.
There was intense discussion to determine WHO WAS
THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF THE BODY.
The BRAIN was the first to speak."Without me,
nothing would be accomplished."
Then the HEART spoke up, "without me pumping
blood to your brain, you could not function'"
The Arms Laughed. "You're both wrong. Without
me to put food in the mouth, nothing would work"
The STOMACH said. "Without me. Your food would
not digest"
The LUNG bellowed back, "Without me you could
not breathe."
The EYES blinked,."Without me, you could not
see."
The KIDNEYS snorted," Without me, you could not
detoxify and eliminate"
Then the COLON meekly spoke up." I am important.
You need to eliminate all of the garbage from your systems"
Everyone laughed and made fun of him. "How can you be
as important as we are? You're just a smelly old sewer"
The poor COLON- his feelings were hurt! He turned
away and thought, "I'll show them"' HE SHUT DOWN!!!!
Then he sat back and watched what happened.
The BRAIN was stupefied.
The HEART'S beat was weak and irregular.
The ARMS were weak and couldn't move.
The LUNGS- gave in to shallow breathing.
The EYES became clouded.
The KIDNEYS quit.
The COLON looked around and decided it was
time to call another meeting. It wasn't too lively this
time, but everyone was in total agreement. THE
COLON WAS THE MOST IMPORTANT ORGAN!!!

A
woman goes into an antique shop and says to the owner,
"when I was in here last week I saw a big mug with a
flat head that holds a lot of beer. I'd like to buy
it." "Sorry," replied the owner, but I can't sell you
that." "Why not asked the customer?" "Because that's
my husband."

For
a Good Cause: Why Support The World Society for the
Protection of Animals?
For a world where animal welfare matters, and animal
cruelty ends. For 25 years, WSPA has aimed to promote
the concept of animal welfare in regions of the world
where there are few, if any, measures to protect animals.
Politically, we have campaigned to convince governments
and key decision makers to change practices and introduce
new laws to protect or improve the welfare of animals.
With
generous donations from our supporters, WSPA has helped
indigenous people set up new animal welfare groups,
enabling the local community to have key involvement
in the improvement of animals‘ lives. Understanding
that human ignorance is a major factor in the continuation
of animal cruelty, WSPA‘s education programmes facilitate
a change in people’s attitudes towards animals, and
their plight, for the better. Our rescue teams provide
direct help to animals that have been abandoned, neglected
or caught up in natural or man-made disasters all over
the globe.
