5 Day Nutritive Cleanse

Hello and Happy New Year!

I trust you all had a wonderful holiday season with family and loved ones. We had a lovely holiday with family in Perth including the celebration of our little brother's wedding, so we are feeling refreshed and blessed to start a new year.

I have had lots of fun writing declarations for the new year and praying into our future and now it is time to implement some of these things. This year my declaration in regards to health is "I Choose to be healthy and vibrant, partaking of the good gifts of nature to nourish and heal my body, soul and spirit. I am healthy, fit and strong."

So to start afresh, I am beginning the year with Young Living's 5 day Nutritive Cleanse which I did about 6 months ago. In my studies so far as a naturopath, I have learned a lot about nutrition, fasting and cleansing, and there is no doubt in my mind that we should ALL regularly fast or cleanse - especially with the modern onslaught of chemicals, toxins and processed foods.

Even Jesus says in the book of Matthew "When you fast..." Not IF you fast. So fasting and cleansing should be a part of our lives. Not only does it help you to reset your body and release toxins, it also enhances your spiritual connection which is always fun :)

So what does the cleanse involve?

The 5-Day Nutritive Cleanse™ facilitates gentle and effective cleansing to improve overall health and well-being.* A minimum of four, easy cleanses a year with our 5-Day Nutritive Cleanse and continued nutritional maintenance will help balance the extremes of the modern diet.
This nutritive cleanse includes the following: Ningxia Red, an energizing, replenishing, whole wolfberry nutrient infusion (1500 ml ); Balance Complete, a super-food-based, daily, superfood energizer and nutritive cleanse (26.4 oz.); Digest + cleanse, which soothes gastrointestinal discomfort and supports healthy digestion* ( 30 softgels ).
Note: The 5 - Day Nutritive Cleanse is a starting place. More intense and targeted nutrients may be required for your particular situation.

The first few days of any fast/cleanse are usually the most unpleasant, but by day 3, most people feel amazing and full of energy. If you fast/cleanse regularly, you will probably feel great by day 2. This cleanse is simple to do as everything is provided for you as listed above.

I highly recommend Young Living's cleanse as the cleansing shake and softgels are completely organic, natural and infused with essential oils. Also, the ningxia red (made from what we know as goji berries) is completely organic and has 5 x the antioxidants as blueberries! So as you cleanse, you are giving your body incredible nutrients to heal and release toxins.

If you are interested in joining me and beginning the year with a cleanse, then please message me with your phone number or email and I can call or email you more details. It takes about 1 week for your cleanse kit to arrive, so make sure you get in touch asap to get it on its way.

Happy New Year
I bless you with Health and Wellness

No More Timeout - A Place of Remembrance

As I have become aware of WHO I AM and how that impacts HOW I BEHAVE, I had a lightbulb moment that I wanted to share with you. My idea involved an upgrade to the concept of timeout. My children are currently 7, 5 and 3 and sometimes we use timeout, but not so much these days as they seem to not need it thankfully!

My idea was to change timeout, to a place of remembrance. It may look the same as a timeout spot, but the concept is vastly different as I see from a new perspective.

My idea involves a chair, which is not a seat of punishment, but rather a royal seat to remind them they are a child of God.

Children (and adults) are NOT sent there because they are ‘naughty’ but rather to remember WHO THEY ARE!

Statements like, I AM KIND, I AM LOVING, I AM HELPFUL, I MAKE GOOD CHOICES, I AM FRIENDLY, I AM FORGIVING surround the place of remembrance and REMIND us WHO we ARE (pictures may be helpful for young children).

Children do not need to be told they are naughty. They must be reminded of who they truly are. We are created in God’s image. We are not naughty. We are not ‘ratbags’. We must choose our words carefully.

Do you behave your best when people remind you of your worst behaviour? I surely don’t. I behave the best when I am loved, accepted and I remember who I am according to my loving Daddy.

As parents, let’s choose to speak LIFE over our children. Let us remind them daily WHO they are and shower them with love. When they forget who they are and behave in a way that is not OK, send them to the place of remembrance where they can be reminded of WHO God made them to be.

Feel free to use this idea and modify it to suit your family.

Let’s move from punishment to empowerment in the way we raise our children.

Blessings

From Striving to Soaring

I am loving the journey and the study that I have chosen for this season of my life and it is massively impacting WHO I AM as well as HOW I LIVE. My latest thoughts have been about BEing rather than DOing. As a Christian, I have been brought up to DO the right things, SAY the right things and THINK the right things. And for the most part, I have lived like this by disciplining and controlling myself and it has been OK.

Well, over the past few years I have been learning about the importance of knowing WHO I am and that BEing must come before DOing. And just in the past few months, this revelation has grown in me deeper and wider and higher thanks to Sharnael Wolverton my essential oil Hero, Robert Stevens an author and speaker, my amazing leaders Mat & Renee Lansdowne and Andy & Dianna Piggot and so many more people and resources!

I received a prophetic song last month which says,

“I choose to soar, soar like an eagle. I quit all striving, flapping like a seagull.”

Not only was this funny, but profound. I had been watching a hawk that day and it was circling higher and higher for over a minute without any flapping. I was inspired. I wanted what that hawk had. I wanted to soar with grace and ease!

Now I am sure you all want to soar rather than flap. Everyone would rather choose grace and ease rather than striving right? Well what is the key? It is WHO YOU ARE! A seagull can TRY all day to soar without flapping, but it is not built to soar like an eagle. If you want to soar, you must choose to be an eagle. If your desire is to soar, and go to new heights and improve your health and live life more abundantly, then take heart, this is ALL possible when you CHOOSE to know WHO you are and WHOSE you are.

You are created in the image of GOD! You are creative. You are powerful. You are chosen. You are loved. You are blessed. You can choose to soar. You can choose to live with grace and ease. You can choose fun and joy everyday. That is who you are called to be and when you know that this is WHO YOU ARE, then you WILL SOAR with grace and ease!

I bless you with COURAGE to AWAKEN to who you are today.

You are an EAGLE.

The Kingdom is at Hand

I love how when Jesus walked the earth, He talked in parables. I love how He told stories and used pictures and this is often how He still speaks to me. The past few years have been filled with loads of fun revelation for me as I journey to understand God’s kingdom, and what that looks like.

In conversation with God one day, He showed me what it looks like for the kingdom to be at hand. To illustrate this, He showed me an iPad in my hand and He explained all the details to me.

Firstly, an iPad is an awesome piece of technology with such potential. That is us. That is all mankind. We are wonderfully and intelligently made. There is plenty that can be done without an internet connection, but we all know, an internet connection drastically improves its potential. And so it is with US and God. I’m talking about the 3G connection. A living active two way communication with the 3Gs. Father, Son and Holy Spirit! This connection unlocks incredible features on your iPad and creates unlimited possibilities. All the apps can come alive with this connection.

There are SO many different apps just as there are so many different abilities for us as people. The Gmail feature speaks to me of our communication with God. God’s google is available to us as an endless supply of knowledge and revelation. There is access to healing, prophecy, creativity, favour, freedom, love, joy, peace, forgiveness, reconciliation and SO MUCH MORE!

Just as with your iPad, you must first download an app and get familiar with how to use it. The more you use it, the easier it becomes. It is the same with us and the kingdom. The more you ‘access’ the kingdom apps at hand and use them, the more familiar they become and those aspects of the kingdom in your life grow.

The key to remember is your 3G connection. If you are having trouble accessing the kingdom right now, then check your connection. Don’t ditch all the apps and put down the technology because you can’t seem to access them. Work on fixing the connection first and the rest will follow. Focus your attention on the 3G connection, and the unlimited kingdom flows from that place.

The kingdom IS at hand. In fact, it is in YOUR hand. It is within YOU. Jesus ascended so that we could have the Holy Spirit live IN US and release the Kingdom from within.  So if you need access to the kingdom right now, have a go and make sure your 3G connection is strong and try out the apps you have been given. The world needs you to access the kingdom within. Go for it!

Now take a look at your hands right now and declare with me, “The Kingdom is at Hand!”.

A Healing Crisis -getting worse before you get better

When I first started using essential oils for health and healing in our home, I did not understand what a healing crisis was and I was sometimes confused by my body’s response to what I was using. From further experience and study, I have been able to learn what a healing crisis is and why it is a good thing.

Below is a definition:

“A healing crisis, or healing reaction, is a temporary worsening of symptoms that occurs when the body is going through the process of healing itself through the elimination of toxins. It occurs when the body “retraces” old injuries, wounds, infections or other imbalances from its past.”

Since having this understanding, I have realised that a ‘healing crisis’ can occur for all types healing whether it is physical, emotional or spiritual and the more people are INFROMED about WHY they are responding a certain way to a natural therapy, the more we can embrace the healing journey.

The ‘temporary worsening of symptoms’ is the hard part for most people, and sometimes, we give up on something because we feel ‘it is not working’. But that could not be further from the truth. Eliminating physical toxins as well as toxic thoughts and emotions can sometimes be painful…but the truth is, they are better out than in!

Many mainstream medicines “supress” our symptoms and do not involve a healing crisis, as nothing is being released, rather the pain or symptom is being switched off without removing the problem. Even mainstream culture has encouraged us to “supress” our emotions and “get over it”. But I want to suggest that this just leaves toxins within that will one day surface.

So if you are experiencing pain, physically or emotionally, your body or heart is trying to get your attention. When you start the journey to heal naturally, you may experience a healing crisis, but take heart. Do not stop. As my pastor says, “If God is revealing it, He is healing it”. KNOW that the healing crisis is only temporary and it is GOOD NEWS that hidden and stored toxins are being released which will lead to REAL HEALING and REAL FREEDOM.

 

My prayer is that you fully embrace the healing journey and find courage to endure the tough times to be fully healed. As Psalm 30:5 says, “Weeping may last for the night, but there is a song of joy in the morning”.

Much Love,

Raneeta

Essential Oils and Amplification

I woke up from a dream last month declaring over a microphone that, “Essential Oils amplify the body’s innate ability to heal itself”.

You see, God has been teaching me about magnification and amplification. It started off in my car with my iPhone playing music. I put the phone in the little compartment that it usually sits in, but this time I was playing music and the sound bounced back at me and was much louder. When I took the phone out, it was quieter, and when I put it back in (speaker inside) the sound was amplified.

Now some of you may be laughing at me, because you already know this, but for me, it began a week of revelation and understanding on amplification and magnification…including my dream. In my dream, I was in a parade and was meant to be singing and playing the guitar, but the microphone was not working. Since the microphone was not working, no one could hear me, but in my dream, all of a sudden, the microphone started working and I spoke these words to a crowd…“Essential Oils amplify the body’s innate ability to heal itself”. The crowd cheered and clapped, and I woke up.

I have been pondering on these thoughts and this dream, and I know this will help some people understand essential oils a little better. God designed you to be healthy. He designed your body to want to regulate itself and remain balanced. It’s called Homeostasis… and your body is constantly working to keep balanced from your blood sugar and blood pressure, to your fluid levels and temperature. So you were designed for healing. Your body is incredible at healing…but often, we don’t give it what it needs in order to heal, which leads to dis-ease in our bodies.

Simply put, essential oils enhance the inbuilt healing capacity within us. Pure essential oils are the lifeblood of a plant and carry the signature and aroma of that plant, along with its incredible healing properties. They work so well in our bodies because they are 100% natural, and our body knows how to work with natural things. Using essential oils for wellness is so wonderful because you are amplifying your body’s innate ability to heal, rather than working against your body.

I wholeheartedly recommend using essential oils everyday to support your health and amplify the healing taking place in your life. God created the plants, and He said, “It is good”. So work with what you know is good, and you will get good results.

If you want to know more about essential oils for your specific journey, let me know, because I would love to help you out with a wonderful natural solution.

Love, Raneeta

P.S Check out this cool invention someone made that relates to my little discovery! Have your own little experiment by putting your phone in a cup when you are playing music and experience 'amplification'

 

 

Dealing with Crap

I love revelations I receive while gardening. There is just so much to learn and apply to life in a garden. Well, I don’t love dealing with ‘crap’ in the garden, but you can’t really avoid it since it is so good for the soil. I’m no expert in gardening by any means, but I know that compost, including animal poop is great for the garden and from time to time, I find myself shovelling horse and chicken poop. Eeewwww... (photo just to gross you all out)

So here is the ‘light bulb’ moment I received while shovelling poop. It is not what life throws at us that determines how we grow, it is how we deal with the crap that is vital. If we don’t deal with the crap we face in life, and let it linger, we attract all sorts of unwanted attention including flies! Flies can then breed and multiply, causing a bigger mess than we started with and a stench!

Unforgiveness, bitterness, hurt, regrets, disappointment, condemnation, shame, jealousy... these things happen. And if we have the courage and the wisdom to process these feelings and emotions, they can be the crap that fuels our growth!! Crap that is dealt with has the potential to cause accelerated growth.

So whatever you are facing, know that this too can be a blessing. Take courage. You are a powerful person. You can process this and let it cause growth in your life rather than attract negativity.

Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

I pray the garden of your life will flourish as you choose to process what life throws at you with grace and ease!
