Quinoa, pronounced ‘keen-wah’ is a seed which contains all eight essential amino acids, so it’s an excellent source of vegetable protein.
You can sprout quinoa, or cook it and use it like rice or cous cous.
In the winter I make a ‘warm salad’ which is a fresh salad with warm quinoa on top. Yum!
Cold water boosts your circulation, releases toxins and gives you a glorious sense of well-being! I’m not as brave as my mother who took a cold bath every morning for sixty odd years. So, I have my usual warm shower, then turn it to cold, and stay under a few seconds longer each day. Try it, you’ll step out feeling rejuvenated!
Caution: not recommended if you have a heart problem.
Try this easy way to break your craving for sweet things. When you find yourself drawn to the chocolate box, or the biscuit tin yet again, munch on a stick of celery instead, and watch your craving disappear.
I was brought up to dab a little honey on an infected cut; invariably the infection disappeared and the cut healed quickly. Later my mother used it to clear up a leg ulcer. Here’s what to do:
If you have a serious or persistent infection, please seek medical help.
If you’ve over-used your muscles – as I sometimes do, by digging out our compost heap, or climbing a mountain – there’s an easy way to avoid feeling sore the next day.
Run a bath – hot, but not too hot so the oil remains active. Before you get in, add 3-4 drops of marjoram oil. Relax in your bath for 10-15 minutes, enjoying the aroma. As all my family know, it works like a dream – your muscles will be fine in the morning!
Whenever you feel you need to boost your immune system, try this refreshing drink which is bursting with vitamin C and many other nutrients.
Simply blend a whole peeled orange with a desert spoon of goji berries. Yum!
