Foods that are particularly energygiving are extremely easy to digest, have a low toxic residue and are high in nutrients. 1. Fresh juices/green Smoothies.

Dead processed, sugar foods or foods we can t digest well = taking our energy. Foods that are particularly energygiving are extremely easy to digest, have a low toxic residue and are high in nutrients. 1. Fresh juices/green Smoothies. My favourite website for raw food ideas and delicious energy-giving smoothies and juices is 2. Sprouts/Micro Greens. Each sprout or micro green shoot contains all the nutrients that the plant needs to reach maturity. I find sprouting a bit of a hassle so my preference is growing Micro Greens. You can buy seedling trays for about $2.20. Simply 3/4 fill with organic potting mix or compost or dirt.. Cover with a generous sprinkle of sprouting seeds. (My kids like Sunflower sprouts. The guinea pigs love oat grass. I enjoy the sophisticated flavor of horseradish sprouts.) Cover the seeds with more soil etc. Water daily and harvest when two or more leaves appear. See Green Harvest Sprouting & Micro Green guide. 3. Fresh, raw salads. Live, seasonal vegetables and fruit are wonderful. 4. Special energy foods and supplements School Children Term 4 always seems to be busy and tiring especially for little children. Volcamin 200ml by Cellogic is an easy to take tonic full of minerals and energy to help growing bodies get a boost. A lovely mandarin and chamomile bath for tired and cranky children does wonders. Mandarin Oil 6 drops Chamomile 6 drops Epsom/Celtic Salt 1 cup If they are run-down add a cup of oats (contained in muslin cloth) to the bath as well. Teenagers & Students Lemon oil for accuracy and mental activity. Brahmi/Bacopa (tablets/tea/or a couple of fresh leaves) gives the brain energy. Very calming to the body and enlivening to the mind. Popular for exams. Rosemary oil is another great exam herb. Bruise the fresh leaves or add the very economical essential oil to the bath. Fantastic for complete physical and mental exhaustion. Rosemary gives the brain energy and relieves tired eyes. Adults Besides good food, the body needs adequate rest and relaxation plus regular movement to produce energy. On a purely physical level our libido (sex drive) is a good indicator of our energy levels. Our bodies need to wind down to be able to wind up. Good blood flow and general fitness also helps. Korean Ginseng (tea, tables or tincture) is a personal favourite when one needs to stay awake doing paperwork or hot dates. This is not meant to be used continuously only on special occasions. Withania Ashwanda (tablets/ tincture is fantastic when taken continuously this is the Super Woman/Man herb! Withania helps prevent and treat adrenal fatigue or the effects of chronic stress. It gives enduring energy and the ability to cope with whatever life brings. (It is safe taken when pregnant & breastfeeding.)

It contains gluten but is easily digested. High in protein and immune boosting properties. Made from local traditional grown spelt. Carefully milled and kneaded. This is beautiful pasta from an ancient grain. Janella Purcell Serves 4 Oh how sweet it is. A quick pasta is something we all love, especially when it tastes like this. Try the noodles or pasta I've suggested, and best to eat this dinner early, then go for a walk. Ingredients 1 pkt spelt fusulli 2 tbls olive oil 2 spring onion, chopped finely 2 garlic cloves, crushed 1-2 tsp chilli flakes (up or down up to you) 1 bunch broccolini, blanched 1/2 cup smoked trout 1 tbls lemon rind, grated 1 tbls capers Sea salt & cracked pepper 1 cup of mint and parsley, chopped finely Lemon juice and olive oil to finish Method Saute the spring onion in the olive oil then add the garlic and chilli flakes. Stir for a minute. Meanwhile put a pot of water on the boil. Place you trimmed broccolini in the water and blanch for about 30 seconds, keeping it green. Refresh it under cold water to stop it coking. Set aside. Now place the pasta in the water and cook until al dente. Meanwhile, flake the trout into the pan with the lemon rind and capers Sir to combine. Toss in the pasta and broccolini then finish with lots of parsley, mint, and seasoning. Drizzle with lemon juice and extra olive oil. Happiness is an attitude. We either make ourselves miserable, or happy and strong. The amount of work is the same. ~ Francesa Reigler
