Open Your Mind from GoodOnYa Deli

Today, I tried the “Open Your Mind” and I was actually pleasantly surprised by this drink. I’ve heard a few positive things and a few negative things about adding butter or coconut oil to your coffee and decided to test it out for myself. I think by blending both into the coffee with a hint of cinnamon and raw honey (these were optional on my part), GoodOnYa Deli was able to pull it off excellently!

Here’s some excerpts from their ordering page:

Organic, 100% Grass Fed Butter
Organic, Raw Coconut Oil

We blend that together with Dark, Rich, Organic Coffee.

The healthy fats shoot to your brain and give you energy and focus. They also balance out the caffeine.

The butter and oil together make turn it into a creamy latte drink you have to taste to experience.

Superfood Power Smoothie with Navitas Naturals

Last week I ordered a number of Navitas Naturals products and decided to experiment with a Superfood Smoothie. The following is what I was able to come up with and has become a favorite for us. Here it is in a nutshell:

In a blender add:

1 cup almond milk (we use Blue Diamond)
Blue Diamond Almond Breeze

2 cups warm drinking water (around 80 F is fine)

1 tsp Navitas Naturals Goji Powder
Navitas Naturals Goji Powder

1 tsp Navitas Naturals Camu Powder
Navitas Naturals Camu Powder

1 tsp Navitas Naturals Lucuma Powder
Navitas Naturals Lucuma Powder

1 tsp Navitas Naturals Acai Berry Powder
Navitas Naturals Acai Berry Powder

1 tsp Navitas Naturals Pomegranate Powder
Navitas Naturals Pomegranate Powder

2 heaping tsp Navitas Naturals Cacao Powder
Navitas Naturals Cacao Powder

contents of 1 capsule of Nature’s Way Elderberry
Nature's Way Elderberry

contents of 1 capsule of Nature’s Way Echinacea
Nature's Way Echinacea

1 eye dropper of Solgar Vitamin D3 (5000 IU)
Solgar Vitamin D3 (5000 IU)

2 eye droppers Omica Organic Liquid Stevia (with vanilla)
Omica Organic Liquid Stevia

1 tbsp (local) raw honey
Local raw honey

1 pinch of ground turmeric powder

Blend all ingredients for about 1 minute.

The reason why I use warm water for this is so that the honey would dissolve better (note that the raw honey should not go over 110 F or else you’ll kill the enzymes that make it so good for you). Well, it’s like drinking a hot chocolate that’s cooled off quite a bit. So, if that’s not your favorite way of drinking a chocolate smoothie, other alternatives that we’ve tried is to simply add a few ice cubes and then blending it again, which makes a tasty cold chocolate drink, or dissolving the honey in the warm water beforehand and then having it cool down in the fridge before making the smoothie.

 

 

Appetite for reduction? Here’s my favorite juice recipe!

How’s your Spring so far? Are you feeling energized, focused and full of life?
Or are you sluggish, run down and exhausted right now?
If it’s the latter, it might be time to try a seasonal cleanse to kickstart your energy, balance your mood and help you feel better.

My personal favorite seasonal cleansing regimen involves some simple (but really effective) strategies for rebooting your system. One of my favorite ways to cleanse is with organic, raw green juices. So I’m going to share with you my #1 favorite juice recipe…

This Glorious Green Juice is loaded with antioxidants, flavonoids and is fantastic for adrenal, liver and skin rejuvenation:

1 large bunch watercress
1/2 medium bunch curly parsley
2 cups sunflower sprouts
1 large green apple, sliced
3 medium apples, sliced
5-inch piece of ginger root, peeled
1 small lemon, peeled and quartered

Run everything through a juicer and serve fresh. This is one of my top go-to juices from my cleansing protocol, which also includes strategies such as:

  • How to reduce inflammation with natural foods
  • Why sauna therapy and dry skin brushing is good for lymph detox
  • How probiotics can balance your emotions and brain health
  • Why liquid nutrition and trace minerals are essential for rejuvenation

Along with 154 healthy vegan recipes, I have an easy-to-follow natural cleanse and detox program in my new Hay House book, Eaternity. When you pre-order before April 12th, I’ll include some awesome bonuses, including my new ebook “The Ultimate Morning Routine” and three exclusive tutorial videos not available to my YouTube subscribers.

How to Survive Growing up in Detroit

When people learn I’m from Detroit, they ask, “How’d you survive THAT?”
It’s a funny question, because I don’t think it’s any tougher growing up there than any other big city.
Sure, there’s sometimes rampant crime, environmental pollution, abandoned buildings, drugs, gangs and (gulp) really long, awful winters.
But you know something? There was a much greater threat to my health than all of those things combined…

It was what I chose to eat every single day.

With Detroit being world famous for it’s chili dogs (aka Coney Dogs), fried meaty delicacies of all kinds and more liquor stores per block than you can even imagine, it was a real challenge to eat healthy once I realized what I was doing to my body by eating so much processed food. It wasn’t exactly easy moving from a Standard America Diet to a whole food plant-based way of eating. But I learned some powerful ways to transition from wherever you’re at with your current diet toward a more sustainable, energized, mindful and vital way of living. And I know how to help you avoid some of the major pitfalls along the way.

That’s why I spent the last two-and-a-half years writing my new book, Eaternity. I wanted to create a powerful, user-friendly guide to help you optimize your health and wellness with fun, delicious recipes and functional benefits for a variety of foods. Whether you’re looking to eat for weight loss, a healthier heart, good sleep, better sex or strong bones – there are 14 chapters and nearly 400 pages of powerful, actionable content to empower you with conscious food choices that can strengthen and heal your entire being.

Right now, when you pre-order Eaternity online, you’ll enjoy a hearty discount off the cover price. Plus, I’ll share three exclusive bonus tutorial videos and my new ebook with you just for ordering. And here the real juice… you’ll be able to enter my $3,000 Grand Prize Giveaway with a plethora of amazing healthy living products, including a new blender, knife set and a variety of superfoods:

I know firsthand how difficult it can be to make changes in your lifestyle… because I’ve been there myself. I know the mental challenges, the incessant cravings and feelings of confusion. If I can survive (and thrive) growing up in a place like Detroit and find my way to a happier, healthier way of living… you can too!

Just know that you’re supported every step of the way and all the resources you need are out there. You’ve got this. I believe in you.

Much love and light always,

Jason
