Flextasy Lite Functional flexibility exercises
were designed to help improve the flexibility of anyone at any age.
Flextasy lite exercises are the Alphabet of Movement. The Flextasy Lite
Movements, are functional, gentle explorations through your structure, loosening,
lengthening, and massaging your muscles, flushing out and fluffing up
the cartilage in and around your joints, decompressing and allowing
those joints to realign themselves as the tension throughout the whole
musculature is lessened.
Flextasy lite is Blue Dunn's follow up to his popular Flextasy Functional flexibility system. Flextasy lite was designed for people who are especially stiff and need a lighter version of Flextasy.
The Flextasy Lite DVD comes with three DVDs and, for a limited time only, includes a bonus DVD of Blue's power moves and self maintenance tools instructions.

Olive Leaf extract: Nature's antibiotic
I like to take Olive leaf as a maintenance supplement year round, but I don't always remember to take it. I will definitely take it when cold and flu season rolls around to give my immune system an extra boost of protection. A maintenance dose of 2 capsules per day is fine, but I sometimes take up to 6 if I am starting to feel sick or I've been around someone who has a cold or the flu.
Olive leaf has many other other benefits besides viral and bacterial protection.
What The Original Olive Leaf Extract May Offer You:
- Viral, Bacterial & Fungal protection
- Helps boost your immune system
- Lower cholesterol & triglycerides naturally
- Increase the oxygen to your brain
- Lower blood pressure
- Achieve a more sound sleep
- Improve energy levels
- Highest strength OLE in the U.S. 20%+
One of my favorite concoctions is a garlic tea when I do have a cold. Honey helps fight infections, garlic is an effective decongestant, and lemon helps alkalize your body. Viruses and bacteria thrive in an acidic environment.
Garlic Tea Recipe In a saucepan, pour 3 cups of water and 3 cloves of garlic (cut in half) and bring to boil. Once it starts boiling turn off the heat and add 1/2 cup of honey and 1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice. Strain. Sip 1/2 cup of warm tea, three times a day. You can refrigerate what you don't use and use the next day.
Why use a Far Infrared sauna
An infrared sauna is easy to set up, two people can set it up in about an hour. An infrared sauna doesn't isn't expensive to run, it will probably only add a few extra dollars to your electricity bill.
An infrared sauna is easy and comfortable to use. With a comfortable operating temperature of anywhere between 100 F to 140F, you can breathe comfortably in the sauna without feeling claustrophobic as can sometime happen in a steam room or traditional rock sauna where the room temperature is over 180F.
There are different sizes available from a 1 person sauna to a large 5 person sauna. Some people like to do yoga or stretching exercises in their infrared sauna. The infrared sauna will help you perform your yoga moves more easily since your tissues will be warmed up and your stretch will hold longer. You can also just go into the sauna and read or listen to music, many saunas come equipped with radio/cd player or DVD player.
There is a timer in the infrared sauna so you can set your time to the ideal time of 40 minutes. The sauna heats up relatively quickly, in about 20 to 40 mins depending on the starting room temperature and the temperature you are truing to reach. The best way to use an infrared sauna is to go in a bit before it reaches the set temperature you desire. For example, if you desire a temperature of 130F, go in at 115, you will get a better sweat and you will maximize the benefits of the infrared heaters since the heaters cycle on and off once they reach their set temperature.

MSM powder/Organic sulfur: Help for arthritis
MSM powder or organic sulfur is a great supplement for arthritis pain. When you are at the right dose, you can feel the effect of the MSM powder relatively quickly. Most people with joint pain find that a dose of 1 to 2 tablespoons or 9 to 18 grams of MSM powder can effectively manage their arthritis pain.
MSM in the powder form is the preferable way to take MSM. MSM capsules can be more expensive and tend to contain fillers or binders that can degrade the quality of the product. You still need to be wary of the MSM that is sold on the market, make sure it is made in the USA and contains no fillers or binders or flow agents. Many of the big manufacturers will use flow agents to help the MSM flow through their machines more easily when they are repackaging.
It is best to start with one teaspoon of MSM and work your way up until you find the relief you need. Some people fine 1 teaspoon is enough other find they feel better after 3 tablespoons. MSM is not toxic to the body. MSM powder has an unpleasant taste and most people find that mixing it with apple juice helps mask the taste. Although, I mix it in just enough water to drink it down quickly, kind of like a shot.
MSM powder has many benefits. Here are just a few:

Sulfur can be found in many foods we eat such as onions, garlic, cabbage and broccoli, but we don't usually get enough in our diet, especially when our system is compromised and we need more of it. If your body is in pain or in need of extra assistance, add MSM powder to your diet

Infrared sauna and detoxification
An infrared sauna can be an easy and quick way to rid your body of toxins. Everyday we are exposed to chemicals and pollution through the air we breath and the products we use. We are also exposed to unhealthy toxins in the foods we eat. Detoxifying our bodies with the use of an Infrared Sauna can help rid ourselves of harmful toxins that accumulate in our bodies everyday.
Allow yourself 30 to 40 minutes in the infrared sauna. Make sure to drink plenty of water before, during, and after your session. Make sure you don't have any creams on your body that will block your pores. If you have a hard time sweating that can mean that you have a lot of toxic build up in your body. Try a hot shower before your sauna session to induce sweating. Once you finish your session, replenish your body with electrolytes. Drink coconut water or replenish your body with a mineral supplement.
Using the infrared sauna at least once a week will help your body get back on track. Check the ingredients of your laundry detergent, shampoos and soaps. Oftentimes, these products contain harmful synthetics that are absorbed into the skin and can cause us harm in the long term. Try to buy organic fruits and vegetables; especially produce that is know to be sprayed with pesticides: celery, apples, cucumbers, grapes, hot peppers, imported nectarines, peaches, potatoes, strawberries, spinach, sweet bell peppers, kale/collard greens, summer squash, cherry tomatoes. Drink purified water, some of the best water you can drink is alkaline water. A water ionizer can both remove harmful contaminants in your water and ionize your water raising the PH so that it is more alkaline. An acidic body can have many detrimental effect to the body, raising the PH of your body will help boost your body's immune system.
