How I Stay Healthy

So much is on the news lately about the Corona Virus, and although I don’t like the thought of panicking people and creating a low-vibration state…I find myself washing my hands more often, keeping my immune system strong, and keeping my environment clean. 
When I was a full-time yoga and pilates instructor in Los Angeles, I used to go to my clients homes to give them their private sessions on their home equipment. It was always frustrating to me when they would cancel (especially if it was last minute!), because I was counting on that income. So, I recommended products that would keep my clients strong and healthy so they would not cancel their sessions. Everybody wins. 
Today I will give you some of my health secrets so you stay strong, healthy, and immune to this virus.

My first recommendation is an immune supplement called the Wellness Formula. It works great! Some of my clients use it daily (they take 1 tablet only), and some will take it only if they start to feel like they are catching something. This little formula will skyrocket your immunity and you will avoid getting sick.
In the event you are already sick, take the Wellness Formula and you will feel better right away (it will take about 40 minutes to absorb), and will also shorten the time it will take your body to recover. The dosage depends on if you prefer the tablets or the capsules, and if you are taking the “maintenance” dose, or the “I’m coming down with something” dose.
The Wellness Formula does not have B-vitamins or Niacin, so you do not have to worry about any undesired effects such as the Niacin flush. You can find it at Whole Foods, Sprouts, or Amazon.

If you are suffering from some kind of inflammation, probably caused by a sluggish liver or digestive system, I have something for you! You will love Turmeric & Bromelain by Natural Factors. I have recommended this to clients who suffer from allergies and they love it. If you are sensitive, do not take on an empty stomach. Bromelain is the enzyme found in pineapple, and it can cause some irritation in an empty stomach. 
It is a wonderful digestive aid and an anti-inflammatory. 

Do you have sore muscles or joints? You exert yourself and it takes you forever to recover?
Try this Ayurvedic massage oil that works like magic. It is called Mahanarayan Oil and you can rub it on your sore muscles and joints after your bath or shower. It absorbs very well and works fast. I order it from Banyan Botanicals, and I think that Amazon also carries it. 

Do you have a lot of pets around the house? Or your family members come home coughing and sneezing?
You may need to use an oil diffuser to kill any airborne bacteria and pathogens. The  essential oil to use in your diffuser should be Thieves Oil. Legend has it that in France, during the time of the Great Plague, there was a team of robbers who would enter the houses of the deceased and rob them of their possessions. How is it that they would not get sick? Apparently they used this oil concoction to spray into the air to kill any remaining sickness. 
However this particular essential oil concoction was created, it works! It will help you breathe better and kill any airborne bacteria. You can find a great version of this oil on the Young Living website, and there are also various version of this oil available for purchase on Amazon.

Lastly, it is also important to keep a health balance of bacteria in your digestive tract. I don’t think it is necessary to take a very high dose of probiotic capsules, as you want to encourage your own body to keep producing your own native gut bacteria.  However, I do drink (and enjoy) a healthy dose of Goat Kefir.
Dairy is not my friend and will slow down my digestive system. But goat kefir tastes delicious and my body loves it!

Of course, it is also super important that you give yourself plenty of time to rest, and eat well.
