MonaVie - Recipe For Life
Sunday, February 24th, 2008![]()
Recently, I had the opportunity to meet with
Marlene Snyder, a gregarious and kind-hearted independent representative from MonaVie - a superb, nutritional whole food beverage company.
After welcoming me into her home, she poured me a cordial glass of this delicious drink - formulated from a proprietary blend of 19 health-giving fruits from around the world. The main component of this vibrant, full-bodied beverage is the acai berry (pronounced AH-SCI-EE), found only in the Amazon Rain Forest of South America.
Purported to possessing 10 times the antioxidants of grapes and twice the antioxidants of blueberries, these Brazilian beauties are said to have the most nutritional value of any fruit on the planet. The other wonderfully fruity components of this blend are Acerola, Apricot, Aronia Berry, Banana, Bilberry, Blueberry, Camu Camu, Cranberry, Kiwi Fruit, Lychee, Nashi Pear, Pear, Passion Fruit, Pomegranate, Prunes, Purple Grapes, Wolfberry, and White Grapes.
Marlene shared some compelling information about her personal experiences with this transforming elixir while I sipped and listened. She also mentioned the potential business opportunity that was available. I found her presentation of the product to be low key, friendly and informative, and rich with the kind of personal accounts that invites me to want to learn more. After our meeting she graciously sent me on my way with a full bottle to test out for the week.
I drank the suggested one ounce of juice twice a day for the week, and I must say I felt a marked elevation in my energy. I also noticed a reduction of the lovely symptoms of heart burn I had been experiencing on a nightly basis. (I found that most interesting of all.) I shared some with my mother as well and she is a diabetic. She liked the taste but was concerned about drinking the juice. Doctors always tell her as a person with diabetes, she should stay away from juices. Always one to want to educate herself about what she puts in her body, she began by looking at the back label. Only 3 grams of sugar per serving. She was shocked, and especially with all of those different fruits. She decided she would investigate this acai berry further.
Whether you are interested in continuing your good health or reclaiming it, this product is something you might seriously want to look into.
Give Marlene a call or email her if that works better for you.
She will kindly answer all of your questions. (310) 991-2529, marlenesnyder4@yahoo.com

SPREAD LOVE
Wednesday, February 13th, 2008Make it a personal mission - not just today on the Hallmark day of love - everyday and towards everybody!
See how it changes your life, when you consciously act from a loving place. Begin to see how it can change the world. The ripple is huge…
Remind yourself - when someone cut’s you off in traffic, when someone rolls into your parking space that you have been waiting for, when the clerk at the store is rude, or makes a mistake and gives you the wrong change, when someone disagrees with your way of thinking…you know those times, you’ve got the picture … and frankly only YOU have the power to change the course at that point in time - only you have the power to alter your reactions to situations that might usually make you an irate lunatic, but from here on in - your going to think about first….take a deep breath, and act with love….
Maybe that person who cut you off has a sick child in the car that needs to go to the hospital, maybe the grocery clerk just got into a fight with their boyfriend, and it really has nothing to do with you - maybe the person who just stole your parking space just lost their job and needs to stop driving and park for awhile to prevent an accident.
If we remember to think first and then react, and then react with love in our hearts and with all the empathy we can muster, well, then it turns out to be a win win situation, and it just doesn’t get better than that. It is a constant challenge for all of us, but it get easier, and it becomes a habit.
So next time when your driving in your car and you see someone on the street, silently wish them peace and love. When you see that mother in the store yelling at her crying child with exasperation - wish her patience, peace, and love, maybe ask her if you can be of any assistance instead of passing judgement. We have all had momentary lapses of reason, and we all have behaved poorly countless times throughout our lives. (God, that is when we do our best learning!) When we react to those occasions with love and understanding, towards ourselves as well as others, it can make more difference then we may ever know.
So this is my mission - it doesn’t always happen perfectly, but I keep trying because I believe in the ripple.
The power of love is truly the greatest power of all, and we all possess the capacity to use it daily and constantly.
And a little certainly goes a long way…
