Summer Cleansing


A dirty, compacted colon may be the culprit of these health issues. A clean, properly functioning colon, however, is the gateway to vibrant health. The natural-health advocates I mentioned above have taught and proven to their patients that miraculous healing occurs with thorough colon cleansing.

So without further ado, here are a few tips to help you with your summer cleanse—along with some proven Young Living products that will help you transform your health this season.

Tip 1: Enjoy plenty of raw fruits and veggies, fresh juice, sprouted legumes and beans, lots of garlic, olive oil, and add more cayenne to your diet. The more alive a food is, the more prana (life force) it has and the more vibrant and alive you will feel when you consume it. Refrain from eating all animal products, processed and refined foods, sugar, salt, alcohol, coffee, over-the-counter drugs, recreational drugs, and fried foods. Canned and processed food is dead!

Slique Fitness Tip: Flexibility


Stretching is an often overlooked—but crucial—part of any workout routine. It can help you avoid injuries like pulled muscles and help decrease the soreness that follows intense exercise by improving muscle circulation. Stretching before and after you work out will have a positive impact on the effectiveness of your fitness routine.*
  • Hamstrings—With your feet shoulder-width apart, bend down at the waist and reach for your toes. You should feel some resistance behind your knees. Hold this stretch for 10 seconds at a time.
  • Quadriceps—Supporting your weight against something solid, bend your right knee and bring your right foot behind you. Reach back and grab your foot with your right hand. You should feel some resistance in the front of your thigh. Repeat with your left leg. Hold this stretch for 10 seconds at a time.

Melissa


Uplifting and delicate, Melissa officinalis is also called lemon balm because of the lemony smell of its leaves. It is a costly essential oil because of the large volume of plants needed to produce small quantities of oil. Beware of inexpensive offerings of melissa, since it is often adulterated with lemongrass and citronella. Melissa create a calm and relaxed feeling. It is often used to support digestion and may benefit the skin. True therapeutic-grade Melissa is highly effective and greatly valued.

Put your Best Skin Forward this Summer!

Summer is upon us and we all want our skin to look great, whether out in the sun having fun or relaxing at a favorite hang-out. Here are some helpful skincare tips to help you make the most of your activities this summer:

1. Exfoliate to Radiate
It’s so very important to exfoliate your skin. Your body sheds skin cells at an amazing rate every minute of every day. If you don’t get rid of them, they just remain in place, giving your skin a dull, dry appearance. And no matter how much lotion you use, you’re never going to have radiant skin if you don’t exfoliate. So grab a body scrub and hit the shower! Gently rub your exfoliator (Young Living’s Satin Mint) in circular movements on your entire body from the shoulders down (you’ll want a facial exfoliator for your face and neck) and rinse clean. Continue to do this 2-3 times a week for year-round beautiful skin.
