Fire Cider for Winter Cold Prevention and/or Relief.
Getting my mind right, is finding every way that I can to feel good and be as healthy all around as I can be.
I can’t afford to get sick. It will just ruin everything!
I try to make healthy eating choices, take my vitamins and I’m getting more and more exercise since my pain is getting under control. The more I move the better it gets. Sleep is still probably my worst thing. But I’m working on it.
So far, this year all my doctor's appointments have been super! I've eliminated preservatives, lowered my sugar intake and I go all natural when I can.
Physically I’m turning out to pretty healthy for 50! I’m kinda proud of that.
My seven-year client and friend, Darcy Stoddard of Hemp-EaZe™ is an herbalist. She shared this recipe with me. I hope you benefit from it too.
I’ll tell you more about Hemp-EaZe™ some other time but if you don’t wanna wait you can check it out here: http://hemp-eaze.com/
