Healthy recipes are coming!!!

I’ve been working on a few new ’clean treats’. Just need to find the time to write the recipe (I’m an intuitive cook. I like to add a little of this and that until I like the flavour.) It takes a little time to actually convert my concoction into a recipe someone else can recreate. 😆 Wish me luck!

Here’s a sneak peak of a few of my favs!

🍌Choc coated frozen banana.
It’s just like healthy magnum ice cream. The chocolate snaps and cracks as you bite into it. Then you hit the creamy, sweet frozen banana. Omg!!! I have to hide these from the kids! 🤫

No recipe needed just freeze banana’s on a stick or cut into bite-sized pieces. Then, once frozen, coat in melted, slightly cooled, dark chocolate. Return to freezer. When firm, transfer to an airtight container and store in freezer until ready to eat.

Warning…they won’t last long!!!

🍒Chocolate Cherry Ripe Bars.
Not sure I’ve nailed this one yet but it’s pretty darn good for a first attempt! Just 4 ingredients (Coconut, Coconut Oil, Cherries and Dark Chocolate) and you have to most delicious, guilt-free treat! 🤤 Recipe coming soon!

Love using Pure Essential Oils to support my family’s health.

The kids have their own oil (Lavender, Lemon & Peppermint diluted with fractionated coconut oil) that they use for bites, stings, rashes, hay fever and headache’s. It works so well.

Miss 7 got stung by a wasp and a bee within days of each other. She came in screaming. We removed the sting, washed the area and applied the oil. The pain and swelling went down within minutes. We continued to apply the oil to the bite until the itching stopped.

So easy and safe for kids to use on their own. It’s been a lifesaver in our household.

We also use a ‘Flu/Immunity’ blend (Frankincense, Lemon, Oregano, On Guard, Tea Tea, diluted for kids) on the soles of their feet and their spine when they are starting to get sick or throughout the winter months. Honestly, I swear by this!!!

Handy to know if Strep throat ever comes our way, I’ll have some natural remedies to try. 🥰

Love my essential oils. Ditched my prescription asthma puffer and haven’t had an antihistamine, headache tablet or any medication (apart from Dr prescribed preganancy/post Caesarian meds) for 7 years!!!

Peppermint lives in my pocket and my kids have their roller ball blend (peppermint, lavender and lemon diluted with carrier oil) ready for any bites, stings or itchy spots. We also have a ‘flu bomb’ gel cap we make to replace cold and flu meds and my kids have the same in a diluted roller ball. We apply it to the soles of their feet and spine each night. Honestly, I would have been lost without this over winter.

Then, bring in your antibacterial oils and you can ditch the nasty chemical filled hand sanitiser and cleaning products for a more natural and safer alternative. It’s also heaps cheaper!

The possibilities are endless. I just wish our medical system encouraged this as a first step before prescribing synthetic medicine that may lead to other possible illnesses or side effects.

I guess, in a world that seems to be filled with toxins that harm our health, it just makes sense to me.

A recent publication outlines the successful implementation of an aromatherapy program in a pediatric hospital. Nurses used aromatherapy to manage symptoms like upset stomach, nausea and vomiting, nervousness, discomfort, fatigue, restlessness, mood, and sleep disturbances, with lavender and peppermint being the most frequently used essential oils. Lavender, peppermint, ginger, wild orange, vetiver, and bergamot were the oils selected for use in the hospital

My hope is that essential oils will be incorporated into more healthcare settings as both primary and adjunctive therapies.
