Let’s talk about our brain and how we can support a healthy brain. Our brain is responsible for everything that happens in our body. It controls all of our mental and physical functions. It is a supercomputer!  Keeping our brain healthy is so important. Some of the things that are bad for brain health are:  stress of course, there’s that troublesome word again!  Using toxic chemicals, do whatever you can to lower your exposure to toxic chemicals. Lack of sleep is also not good for your brain, sleep reenergizes our cells. Artificial sweeteners are very detrimental to your brain, here is a great article on aspartame https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2011/11/06/aspartame-most-dangerous-substance-added-to-food.aspx   I love reading the articles on this site!  
Now on to the healthy things for your brain!  What you eat of course can either help or hinder a healthy brain. Good whole fruits and veggies, quality fats such as those from avocados, nuts and seeds and fish. And getting plenty of water every day.
Young Living has some great supplements that are good for your brain.
1.Omegagize which is your omega 3’s.2. Mindwise is full of healthy ingredients for brain health. https://www.youngliving.com/en_US/products/mindwise3.Super B’s. B vitamins are important for brain health. B12 is involved in the function and development of the brain, nerve cells, the myelin sheaths that protect nerves, and blood cells. It is sometimes taken to treat memory loss, poor concentration, and Alzheimer’s disease and to boost your mood or energy levels. 4.Ningxia Red is a power house of superfoods!  
The top four essential oils for brain health are
1.Frankincense 2.Brain Power3.Cedarwood4.SandalwoodApply these to the base of your skull, on your temples and on the top of your head. Also place a drop in your hand, rub together and inhale. Try this for a few weeks and see if you notice a difference in memory!  A few others to consider are all the Citrus oils, Vetiver, Clarity, and Northern Lights Black Spruce. Geneyus is a blend like brain power formulated especially for kids to help them focus!

Meet Anna McElligott

 
Once upon a time our lives were so much harder.  We had no options for helping ourselves with everyday bumps, bruises and overall issues that every family with children encounter.  When my children were small I knew deep down that I didn’t like using all the things I was told I needed on hand for all the things children got when small.  I had no idea there were so many different viruses and weird illnesses out there until I had kids!

Fast forward several years to when my kids were getting older and one suffered greatly with allergies.   I knew in my heart there had to be a better way!  As I was talking to my niece about this she told me about a product she had discovered that helped her immensely, and this product was all natural!!!

I waited an entire year before I decided to jump in and give it a try, this particular spring was really getting to my child with allergies and I hated feeding her OTC allergy meds.   I took the plunge and ordered the products she suggested and was so happy with how much they helped my daughter, no more allergy meds for us!!!

Our lives are so much better now and in my research I have discovered so many more ways to use the products she suggested.  Now when we have the sniffles or someone gets a bump or one of them is stressing over a problem I have a way to help them naturally!  I am so happy and we are so much healthier as a result!!!
