Happy Lunar New Year! In 2021, we ring in the Year of the Ox, one of 12 animals in the Chinese zodiac. The Ox is also the second animal in the Zodiac. According to one myth, the Jade Emperor said the order would be decided by the order in which they arrived to his party. The Ox was about to be the first to arrive, but Rat tricked Ox into giving him a ride. Then, just as they arrived, Rat jumped down and landed ahead of Ox. Thus, Ox became the second animal.... In Chinese culture, the Ox is a valued animal. Oxen are honest and earnest. They are low key and never look for praise of to be the centre of attention. Those born in the Year of the Ox are said to be a natural leader who is bright, patient, and cheerful. You are an Ox if you’re born in: 1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009 or this year.

Take a minute to read this article to see the great things Katie has to say about our community! Katie is so honoured to have been chosen for this opportunity

Let Your Food Be Your Medicine During Cold and Flu Season ~ by Julie Daniluk, RHN, NNCP TURMERIC Curcuma long is also a member of the Zingiberacae family. It is a deeply warming spice that contains powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Turmeric improves circulation by reducing elevated blood levels of fibrinogen. Fibrinogen is a plasma protein that plays a key role in the process of blood clotting. Elevated levels of this protein are a major risk factor for h...eart attack and stroke. Turmeric has been shown to reverse elevated blood levels of fibrinogen safely without side effects. Curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric, works by stimulating the liver and gallbladder to do the essential work of bile production. Curcumin can also reduce symptoms of bloating and gas in people suffering from indigestion. Turmeric is a root that looks a lot like ginger, but it is quite difficult to grind. If you buy your turmeric already ground, make sure you buy small quantities of good quality powder, and use it up before you buy more. CARDAMOM Cardamoms are the small dried fruits of the perennial herb, Elettaria cardamomum, known as the Queen of Spices. This fruit has a pleasant aroma and a warm, slightly sweet and pungent taste. Cardamom is helps reduce symptoms of gastrointestinal disorders such as constipation and diarrhea. Studies show that it can also have a positive effect on blood pressure - a 3 gram serving has been shown to significantly decrease diastolic pressure, without side effects. Cardamom has also been shown to have a strong antimicrobial activity against the microorganisms that cause dental cavities and bad breath. Ground cardamom can be found at the grocery store but it typically has less flavour than the whole seeds. You only need a little to give your recipes a sweet, aromatic vanilla undertone.

New candle alert!!! We received more of the amazing @ebonyandivorycandleco to add to our shelves. Just in time for Valentine’s Day

Let Your Food Be Your Medicine During Cold and Flu Season ~ by Julie Daniluk, RHN, NNCP CINNAMON Also known as Ceylon or true cinnamon, cinnamomum verum is a small evergreen tree belonging to the family Lauraceae. It yields a warming spice that helps to reduce dampness (phlegm) in the body by increasing circulation. It is antiseptic and and an excellent digestive tonic. ... Cinnamon is best when freshly ground so try to buy whole cinnamon sticks and grind them as you need them with a fine grater or a sturdy price grinder. You can also add whole sticks ti soups and stews , where it can simmer before serving. GINGER Zingiber officinale is a member of the Zingiberacae family, which improves circulation to all parts if the body. This ‘hot’ and fragrant root has been used for centuries to soothe an upset stomach. A few slices of raw ginger root steeped in boiling water can help soothe a cough or sore throat. It can also ward off feelings of nausea and vomiting during pregnancy. And it can boost the immune systems of mother and baby in the process. Choosing ginger as an alternative to anti-inflammatory drugs gives the liver a break from working overtime as it clears these drugs from the system. Chop up a little fresh ginger root and add it to your stir fry, or grate some into your chai tea. It is so versatile you can even add it to your bath!
