If you are going through the conscious awareness transition a great place to start is with your basic body care. These products help elevate yourself into conscious care. 

First you will want to re think your perfume. Most conventional perfumes are made with toxic chemicals that disrupt our endocrine system. Your skin is the largest organ of the body so wouldn't you want to be very careful as to what you place upon it? I say yes, and this is how. I use essential oils. Not only do they smell amazing but there are many benefits beyond the aroma. Lavender is what I consider the main essential oil. It already covers the perfect perfume prescription and it is great to put on your skin for bug bites to stop itching, sun burns to stop burning and for inhaling to calm your nerves.

You will want to get a natural tooth paste without fluoride. Fluoride is found in most toothpastes (as well as in our water) for what dentist use as preventive tooth decay and an enamel builder. It's actually a neurotoxin.  I use Natures Gate Toothpaste in peppermint.

Deodorant and breast cancer. The aluminum in regular deodorant could be a contributor in breast cancer. Not all natural deodorants are created equal. Most of them still leave you feeling smelly. You may have tried a natural deodorant and it didn't work and came to the conclusion that all natural deodorants don't work. I would have agreed with you until I found the Aubrey High C roll on. The vitamin C actually eats the sweat smell bacteria. There is no perfume smell, just a neutral non smell. It actually works! It's the only deodorant I use and recommend.

How I stay Healthy and Get Life High!
In Three Simple Steps

1. Protein Powder: Take meal supplements like Raw Meal, drink fresh juice and eat raw foods like salads.
2. Passion Projects: Create art, dance, sing. Do those projects that make you happy!
3. Positive Music: Listen to uplifting spiritual music life Air1

In this video I describe ways of how I stay healthy in being what I like to call LIFE HIGH! When you are authentically healthy, emotionally and physically you can reach a state of being where you feel really energized. People may even think you are on something. They conclude that in order for someone to be as happy and energetic as you are, that one must be high. But what they don't realize is that you can be high while not on drugs.

When you are living in your purpose and carrying out your divine life purpose within your creativity and when you have a truly healthy body, you are in alignment on earth. Then it's easier to handle life. Easier to be healthy and happy. A lot of this is the food you eat, what you are creating in life, and what media you are feeding yourself, what music you are listening too. For the media is the messages you constantly hear, believe and subscribe to. I choose to listen to positive music, create my art and eat healthy foods and supplements.

I like the meal supplement from Garden of Life Raw Meal.

Emerald Figueroa joins me in teaching you how to be a health conscious beauty by creating your own V8 juice. We used a Vitamix blender to blend up the following, tomato, celery, cucumber, carrot, lemon, beat, spinach, and basil.
Try it out yourself but remember to cut up the pieces well before tossing into the blender if you are using a regular blender. 
InJoy!

Add the Vitamix to Your Kitchen

I'll take it! 

​An excerpt from the video transcript.
"Hello and welcome to the first episode conscious beauty tips and today we have a DIY. I'm here with my friend and Emerald. We are going to be doing a V8 juice today. Now I'm use to juicing with a juicer. But today we are going to be juicing in a blender please show me how we can do that today.
Absolutely well one of the first things that most people don't really know about blending and juicing, I was always told by a a woman who was really well in the industry well known in the industry. She said when you are healthy blend and when you're not well or need extra nutrients you juice.What we have to work with, we have tomatoes which is a nice base and then we have celery and we have carrots, purple carrots. This is the way carrots its use to be but we have hybridized for the yellow carrots so in my yard and we have purple carat and we also have fresh basil its a great touch it's not something that's absolutely necessary for the recipe. Beats switch give the drink a beautiful rich red color."
