LIVE IN BALANCE

For most of us the Fall is a time of ch, ch, ch, ch, changes! School starts, new schedules begin, the weather gets cooler and we get to wear our fall clothes! I love this time of year. It feels cozy, like a warm hug. I hope you're enjoying it, too.

On the downside, it's also a time when colds increase and we may feel more stressed then over the summer months and even gain a few pounds... Well, I'm here to help with all of that! Read my latest blog post HERE to see how. I am available for 30 minute health coaching consultations to talk to you about your health & wellness needs. Schedule now, to learn what you can do to combat stress and feel better in your body. SCHEDULE HERE. This offer is available to the first 7 people to sign up!

What else can you do to support your health during this time of change? Essential oils to the rescue! Make sure you have all that you need for back to school. See visual below. And, if you haven't tried essential oils, yet and wondering what all the hype is about, call me and we'll chat about how you can use essential oils to manage your stress and boost your immunity.

This program is great for earning free oils but you must remember to go in and edit your order monthly before the ship date or it will send you what you had last month!

In order cancel your order completely for the month, you must call doTERRA at 1-800-411-8151. We want to make sure you use your points before you cancel so you don't lose them!

Serves 3-4

1 tablespoon coconut oil

2 cloves garlic, chopped

4 carrots, chopped

1 large yellow onion, chopped

2 stalks celery, chopped

4 cups water

1 green apple, peeled and chopped

2 tablespoons miso

Dash of cinnamon

SAUTE VEGETABLES. In a large pot, add oil. Once oil is warmed, add garlic, onions, carrots and celery and sauté until soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.

SIMMER UNTIL SOFTENED. Add water, apple, a dash of cinnamon, and bring to a boil. Lower heat and let simmer for 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat.

BLEND THE SOUP. Pour soup into a blender and blend until smooth.

MIX IN THE MISO. Add ½ cup pureed soup back into the pot and add the miso. Mix until the miso is dissolved. Add the remaining soup back into the pot and simmer for 2 or 3 minutes (miso should not be boiled because it will kill the beneficial bacteria). Remove from heat and serve.

Every year we have a family vacation with all the grandparents. It is the highlight of the year! This year we all rented a house on West Grand Traverse Bay. Here we are celebrating my dad's birthday with a Lobster dinner on our back porch. We all delight in sitting down together and sharing meals. We all work together planning, preparing and cleaning up the meals as well as minding the kids. It's a little taste of communal living and I love it! This weekend my mom, who is a whiz in the kitchen is coming over and we're going to prepare a bunch of meals to freeze to make meal preparation during the week a breeze! My mom and dad are in the bottom right corner.
