My son, Jasper felt a little rushed and put on the spot a few weeks ago in our webinar presentation and I promised him he would have the chance to create a video about stress for you. In this week’s video Jasper gives you three tips on how to use herbs for stress and a tip or two on managing stress in day-to-day life.

Stress negatively affects digestion, slowing motility which encourages the growth of unhealthy digestive bacteria.  Stress can also actually come from digestion, either from poor absorption or an imbalance including digestive permeability.  Jasper’s ideas in this video can be very helpful while dealing with the root causes of stress.

Did you ever wonder whether your cleanse is worth it if your family members are not cleansing with you? After the cleanse no doubt your appetite, preferences and outlook on life are different. What does that mean for real life? Will it be easy to get pulled back into less-than-great food choices when everyone else is eating differently than you?

What about bacterial and parasite cleanses… Whenever you do a cleanse it does affect digestive bacteria and usually in a fantastic way. Laure was wondering if it was worth doing a cleanse without close family because of course as families share a home and food we naturally tend to share a microbiome with the ones we love. Would you like to know if it is really worth it?

Bear in mind I am very strongly against children going on any sort of cleanse at all.
