Vitamin C Chlorophyll alkalizing cocktail: celery, ginger, mandarin oranges & cilantro. Alkalizing your body, or maintaining a proper PH level in your blood is a huge factor in preventing illness. An overly acidic system is the best host to all kinds of unwelcome diseases. Mandarin oranges are highly alkaline, as is ginger & celery. Any dark green leafy plant is alkaline & full of chlorophyll, helping restore a healthy PH balance.
I cut up 6 organic celery sticks (celery is particularly gnarly when grown conventionally), 5 mandarin oranges, 2-3 tbsp fresh cilantro & a small chunk of fresh ginger. Add water & blend! This can be a really pulpy one, so if you don't want to be chewing on it, filtering out the pulp is the best way to go! Enjoy! Your body will love you for it! # plant-based # clean eating

Making a strong tea bath of arnica and helichrysum flowers to pour over my head where I banged it pretty hard yesterday and it's pretty achy and swollen. After simmering the flowers in water until the color is a deep gold, I will strain out the flowers, and then scoop a bit out and pour over the area affected throughout the day. Another good option is soaking a small towel or dishrag in it and laying it over or wrrapping it around affected area. I've found arnica & lavender to be very effective for contusions (bruises to areas including the brain = concussion). Helichrysum oil is also amazing but this will be a first using the dried flowers ( and my are they dry and crunchy, no wonder the EO is so expensive, I don't know how you can extract oil from this, lol).

Today's alkaline infusion: H2O infused with ginger, fresh sage & dried mint leaves. This is so great for hot days! Especially in this 100+ degree desert dry heat, whoa! It's important to stay hydrated or you will start to feel like you're losing your mind, for real! Keeping a pH balance in your body that veers towards the alkaline is important, as a system that is very acidic can be a very greedy host to all kinds of ailments. Some things that make your PH more alkaline: green leafy veggies and plants (sage, mint, pine, rosemary, oregano, nettles, alfalfa, kale, spinach), lemon & lime juice, cayenne & ginger. I love adding sprigs of fresh edible plants in my water and letting it infuse a little bit before I drink it. I'll leave it in a mason jar and keep filling it (refrigerate while infusing or when not drinking) until it's no longer fresh... Sometimes up to 3 days depending on what's in it. Great way to stay hydrated, boost immunity and keep your body more alkaline. 🌿🌱

Plants of the Peruvian Amazon Series #1. Savila, commonly known as Aloe. This plant is sold by the 'leaf' and the leaves, of you're not familiar are these long beautiful & heavy succulent leaves full of aloe vera gel. You cut or crack open the tough skin and the goopy stuff inside is a treasure of beneficial plant medicine. Many here scoop out the gel and put it in the blender with sweet fruits (since its taste is VERY bitter) to make a juice and use it to treat stomach complaints from indigestion to constipation. It's cleansing & helps produce bowel movements, also soothes inflammation of intestines, stomach & any mucous membranes. It's used externally for burns, and any kind of skin irritation, and i used it today to condition my hair. While many hair conditioners say they contain aloe, there's nothing like the real thing. Best way to condition is to slice up the aloe gel into pieces and throw in the blender with water. Blend into a frothy frappe and pour it over your head. You don't need to rinse it out. If i had it i would add a teaspoon of coconut oil to it. As a deep conditioning treatment, id also add fresh avocado, banana & flax seed gel (the end result of boiling flax seeds in water).
