Everyone should know about the healing benefits of shilajit. Read on to learn why you probably need to add this amazing substance to your diet.

I first learned about the healing benefits of shilajit many years ago. Always being one who is excited to try out a new wellness product, I bought some. I tried it. And then, I never used it again. I am very rarely put off by the taste of foods, herbs, or supplements. I can eat anything. Except papaya. I cannot eat papaya. But that’s a whole other story…

Another thing that screams spring to me is artichokes. When artichokes start …

Tea itself can be so healthy. But, did you know that the way you drink it can magnify it’s healing powers?  Read below to learn why you should have a relaxing tea drinking ritual.

Tea lovers are a special breed. Many of us like things a certain way when we drink our tea. And, while this may seem persnickety to some people, I’m here to tell you that this is a good thing, not a bad thing.

If you are new to the increasingly popular tea scene, you may not yet have created your own tea ritual, but I’m urging you to do just that.  Don’t roll you eyes — a tea ritual doesn’t need to be “new age-y” or fancy or overly involved. It just needs to be something that’s relaxing to YOU.
