Dig Deep to your soul

 So, I know all the things that I need to do everyday to be the best I can be.  And if I do them I know I will get the results that I want.  BUT, that isn't always the case in daily life.   We get setbacks that just hit us smack in the face.  The setbacks throw us off.  We feel like we are right back where we started before we were all "gun ho" on tacking life and taking control of our happiness.  Here's how I see how to get over the setbacks that will keep happening in life no matter how good you think you got it.  

1. Dig dip into your silence and pull out some courage to move on.  It's beyond hard and beyond ourselves sometimes but you have to.  Otherwise you will get sucked into the vortex of self defeating conversation.  You are your thoughts good and bad.  So try and make the good out way the bad.  That is survival tactics 101.

2. Be positive about what you already have today.  Instead of counting all of what you want.  Why not just be happy that you have what you have and you have to "work"to get what you want. Make sure that what you are hungering for will have a positive affect on another persons life.  A contribution to your fellow man.  That is what we are on this earth to do. We sometimes get lost in ourselves that we forget the purpose of our daily efforts.

3. Find three things that you feel you have improved on with yourself that help you be a better friend, role model, teacher or whatever it is in your world that makes you a contributing figure in your current life.


4. Dig Deep to your soul for the voice of reason and love for yourself.  Once you start showing your self some respect others will show you even more.

Fix those tired eyes ASAP!

  Cucumbers are a multiple tasking eye fix for healthy, younger looking eyes that lack of circulation and liver fatigue is what makes our eyes puffy and tired looking.
 Cucumbers have tons of potassium, which moves water deposits away from the eye area.

Eat a cucumber a day and see the bags go away!

Teas that are in Geri G. Products

White and green teas come from the same tea plant, Camellia Sinensis and both are in all of Geri G.® skin/cosmetic products. 
 Why?  Because it's important that whatever you are putting on your skin is doing something positive for your skin.  Otherwise why use it!!  I like White tea because it is more rare.  It can only be hand picked during a few days of early spring and is extremely fragile.  Green tea is partially fermented. First it's steamed, fired and then rolled.  

 White and green teas are not overly processed, they retain most of their antioxidant properties.  However since white tea is less processed, it retains a higher amount of antioxidant properties, compared to green and the combination of the two is what makes a perfect balance of nutrition for the skin in my formulas. 
 These antioxidants are found to have many health promoting properties and when it comes to the skin green and white tea are very soothing and can be supportive to supplying the skin with much needed topical antioxidant defenses e specially from the sun!

Baby it's cold outside


Wow!! It's -8 in Chicago right now and I am counting down the hours till I return to my California.  But a part of me feels bad leaving my clients behind and wishing I could take them all with me to Los Angeles.  What I noticed on this last visit to my Illinois office was how the lack of sun really is so disrupting to ones skin and overall happiness.  Lack of sunshine makes the skin dull, makes your mood blue and makes everything just seem gray.  No one feels motivated to do anything and when it's so cold you almost feel paralyzed from going out and doing normal day to day errands and social events.  It's just too cold and miserable to be out.


So what to do when the cold and the winter blues hit??  LED light therapy and some form of exercise.  The combination of the two will stimulate good mood feelings and release those darn endorphins that we need to get us out of the winter blues and funky mood.  I recommend getting the exercise done first thing in the morning before you leave the house. Get some good VH1 morning tunes playing on the TV for something to watch and make the time pass away.  
 
Try a little ginseng or Rhodiola to help with natural energy booster.  Relora helps with stress and mood enhancer without over stimulating your nervous system.

New You, New Me, New Geri G.®!

New You, New Me, New Geri G.®!  This year is the break out year for all of us.  If you haven't seen or signed up for my Look Young, Live Lean, Be Healthy Now workshop on February 9th in Glen Ellyn, IL.  What is stopping you?  Well, of course if you are in another state I can understand but if not then you should be there!!  Don't worry all my west coast clients and followers I am expanding my workshops to be in both offices and other states through out 2014 and beyond.


In 2014 I want to give you the knowledge and know how to make a true physical and mental change in your body.  Sometimes the hardest thing to admit to yourself and to change about yourself if admitting that you are not following through on your dreams and lacking commitment on following through once you decide to do something. 

At my workshops I will give you skills and actions to help you see your commitment through.   I blow out the myths you see on all the daytime talk shows and magazines that are giving you miss-information and causing you to get stuck and frustrated about how to achieve health, beauty and emotional wellness.

Don't wait one more minute of your life by waiting or saying you know you need to make a change.  Just do it and your first step is to come on February 9th and learn what you need to do to make simple and manageable changes to your life for a younger, leaner and healthier you in 2014!!

 Here is my first tip that will make a change just by doing the following every day:


Aloe Vera Juice with 4 Geri G.® Green meal Caps - It refreshes, cleanses and reboots your internal system for starting the day off with PH alkaline nutrition from the Green Meal Caps.  Wait 15-30 min. before eating anything else.


Aloe Vera is my drug of choice from nature.  I use it in all my formulations and love it in its purest of form.  Learn to have Aloe in your life and you will be on your way to a healthier skin and body from the inside out.

DON'T FORGET!

DIY TIPS for Perfecting the Skin

You want beautiful, young, healthy looking skin?  Of course you do-who wouldn't!  Well, her are my easy tips that anyone and EVERYONE should be doing for that gorgeous "wow! you are looking amazing" skin!!!

One word, ALKALINE.  The body when it is looking and feeling it best is when it is alkaline.  How do you become alkaline and stay alkaline?  By eating alkaline rich foods and avoiding foods and substances that are acidic in nature.  Do this and you will love the way you look and feel that it will keep you motivated to stay on the right path forever.

For the fast and easy track of becoming alkaline try my GREEN MEAL CAPS- 2 servings a day (4 caps) before meals.  I created them specifically to answer my clients desire for me to make being healthy and beautiful esker to stick with and incorporate into any busy lifestyle. 

Alkaline Foods:
Wheatgrass, Alfalfa, Spirulina, Cracked Cell Chlorella- all found in Geri G.® Green Meal Caps!!  
Fastest way to inner and outer beautiful, 
healthy looking SKIN!!


Leafy Greens- Kale, Spinach, lettuces, Collard Greens, Mustard greens, Turnip Greens, Cabbage, Endive

Sprouts of any kind!!

Flax, Chia: high in Omega's (anti-inflammatory)

Lemons, Grapefruit and Limes: are acidic but when ingested have an alkaline affect in the body.  Always recommend having a twist of any of these with vodka or sake to help balance the acid effects of the alcohol.

Lentils and Peas!

Oil- cured olives

Stevia: It's what I sweeten the Essential Mel with and enjoy in my Almond Milk foam everyday!!

The biggest culprit that makes most people acidic is animal products.  They are highly acidic and rob your body of youth.  You are what you eat.  Eat something that is dead and you will look like what you eat.
