Stressful events happen to all of us. We all feel stress.
Nobody wants to.
And while we can’t possibly have 100% control over the events that happen in our life, we can manage how these events affect us.
I can’t guarantee that your boss won’t suddenly tell you that you’ve got to present in front of 500 people tomorrow, on a subject you don’t know about, and your promotion depends on it - BUT I can guide you on dramatically changing the way your body processes stress and deals with stress. This much is absolutely in your control.

This is a very simple recipe but it solves many problems! I am ALWAYS being asked whether milk is OK, which type of milk is best and whether the jury has finally come to a decision on soy!
The simple answer is this - make sure your milk is as pure, unrefined and dairy free as possible!
Making your own fresh, raw, almond milk ensures your milk is healthy and alkaline and not packed full of sugars, preservatives, hormones or any other nasties!
Raw Almond Milk
Ingredients:
1 cup almonds
3 cups water
1 vanilla bean, seeds scooped out

What a claim to make! But I make it with absolute conviction and certainty because I am getting emails every day from people on our Alkaline Diet Course who are finding their heartburn (and IBS, dry skin, weight problems, fatigue etc) clearing up within a week to ten days.
This is absolutely real. And it is just through dietary change. By simply applying the principles of the alkaline diet, acid reflux/heartburn is disappearing.
I have never experienced anything even close to heartburn since eating and living this way, but I had also never really examined the link between the alkaline diet and heartburn relief. It is really quite obvious.

Following on from last weeks blog post about the health benefits of chlorophyll, I thought it would be excellent to follow it up with one of my favourite juices - the Blood Builder.
This juice is absolutely packed full of chlorophyll and is incredibly highly alkaline.
Blood Builder Vegetable Juice
Serves 2
Ingredients:
1 cucumber
2 large handfuls spinach
Handful parsley
1 stick celery
Handful of kale
Preparation
Simply wash all of the ingredients thoroughly, roughly chop and juice! To give it more of a fruity, less veggie flavour squeeze fresh lime or lemon in at the end.

This is officially the newest, freshest alkaline diet recipe in the world. My girlfriend and I (well, mostly her) made it last night for our friends Mark and Nat and everyone agreed it was flippin’ delicious. They couldn’t believe it didn’t have cream or cheese in it!
What started out with the intention of being a reasonably healthy meal (we try not to force health on our friends!), ended up being a fully alkaline, raw pasta dish (apart from the pasta!) that left everyone feeling full and happy!
So here’s how it goes:
Creamy Zucchini Pasta
Serves 4

Sometimes nature does the most obvious things to help us out.
You know how there are certain things in life that just seem so obvious you think that can’t be true! Certain consequences, like removing red wine stains by tipping white wine onto them (I still can’t believe that works!), are in fact, everywhere. And chlorophyll gives us another one of them.
Knowing how important the health of our red blood cells are to our wellbeing, if we’re looking for something to ensure our red blood cells are clean, healthy and plentiful, wouldn’t we look for something that gives our body exactly the tools it needs to do this? Of course we would.

This recipe is one of my favourite, tastiest alkaline recipes: Almost Alkaline Fajitas! This is a recipe that is very representative of our approach to alkalising here at Energise. This is an almost perfect alkalising recipe. Almost perfect. We could have made it absolutely perfect, but then it wouldn’t be as enjoyable and I doubt I would ever make it again.
I truly believe that: there is more good in hitting 80% consistently than going hard, 100% for 3 days and then quitting. Life should still be about balance, fun and having a good time – not stressing, worrying and watching every single thing we eat, drink and do.
