About Pressed Juices:
Our juice is organic and fresh cold pressed in small batches using the grind and press method...  often used by the healing institutes...known as the best.
It is never heated or pasteurized, contains the living enzymes of the fruits and vegetables, and helps to maintain an alkaline ph.
There is very little oxidation with this method so the juice stays very fresh for up to 4 days!  Also there is significantly higher nutrient content due to the 2,000 psi press.
There is no foam or pulp so it tastes amazing!  We offer both fresh-cold and fresh-frozen juice blends. We quick-freeze the fresh raw juice to lock in the nutrition and maintain freshness.  Just defrost as needed (1-2 days in the fridge or a couple hours at room temp).

A Highly Nutritious, Delicious, and QUICK Cheesy Cream of Broccoli Soup


A Highly Nutritious and Delicious, and QUICK Cheesy Cream of Broccoli Soup

Broccoli is high in vitamin C, as well as dietary fiber; it also contains multiple nutrients with potent anti-cancer properties, such as diindolylmethane and small amounts of selenium.[7] A single serving provides more than 30 mg of Vitamin C and a half-cup provides 52 mg of Vitamin C 

Steaming broccoli for 3–4 minutes is recommended to maximize potential anti-cancer compounds, Boiling reduces the levels of suspected anti-carcinogenic compounds in broccoli, with losses of 20 – 30% after five minutes, 40 – 50% after ten minutes, and 77% after thirty minutes. Broccoli has the highest levels of carotenoids in the brassica family.[15] It is particularly rich in lutein and also provides a modest amount of beta-carotene.[15]
A high intake of broccoli has been found to reduce the risk of aggressive prostate cancer.[16]  Broccoli consumption has also been shown to be beneficial in the prevention of heart disease

This recipe is infused with wonderful tasting *Quantum Nutrition Nutritional Flakes & *Quantum Nutrition air-dried Pink Salt, you will also get a full complex of B vitamins and trace minerals.  The olive oil and avocado getting you good fats.
*Available for purchase at Body & Mind Coe-Dynamics, Inc.  http://www.coe-dynamics.com/whole-health-nutrition/purchase-products/

Recipe
 
Single Serving (1 cup)1/2 cup lightly steamed broccoli (no more than 3 minutes)
1/2 of a small avocado
1/4 tsp *Quantum Nutrition air-dried Pink Salt 
1 - 2 Tbs *Quantum Nutrition Nutritional Flakes
1 tsp minced onion or dehydrated onion
1 Tbs. Extra Virgin cold pressed olive oil
1/4 cup filtered water (depend upon preference of consistency)

Place all ingredients in a glass jar or blender container and blend to preference of consistency.  You can eat as is at room temperature, or if already in a glass jar, place the jar in a pan with water and lightly warn the water in the pan to slowly warm the soup (this prevents you from cooking out all the wonderful nutrients). Pair this with some homemade cultured sauerkraut (see former posts for this recipe) as this will help with the digestion of the broccoli and help enhance the uptake of nutrients in your digestive tract.

Physical body Imbalances can literally be a pain!


Pilates - Physical body Imbalances can literally be a pain!

One of the many wonderful attributes about Pilates is that it will find and correct imbalances of muscle joint use of the body. This can take place either before injury(s) set in (a preventative mechanism) or if it is after injury has set-in then Pilates becomes a wonderful post-rehabilitative program to get you back to where you want to be. Imbalances can come through many ways: habits of daily living activities, injuries, surgeries, eye sight and hearing being less efficient in one side etc etc..

I'm writing this not only as a tenured Pilates teacher and working with many bodies and abilities but also more importantly from personal experience.

Over the past 8 years I endured some significant injuries both of which created a lot of strain, scar tissue and significantly inhibited the use of my left side starting from my pelvis down to the foot (today I chalk them up to learning experiences and better to be able to connect to my clients). This automatically sent me to the extra use of my right side while the mending and healing process of my tissues: muscles, ligaments, neuromuscular taken place over the various years.. of which I owe much gratitude to all my amazing body workers (chiropractic, fascia release therapy, rolfing, physical therapy acupuncutre, and *Quantum Nutrition Deltanol (an all natural anti-inflammatory) (see attachment).
As the inflammation dissipated, Pilates truly showed me where my weaknesses were lying (Left side Transverse Abdominal and Adductors, Quadriceps and right side Multifidi) and where I was overusing muscles to support the weakness, (Right Gluteus Medius, right Quadratus Lumborum) to name a few in technicality.
Not only did this awareness allow me to use Pilates to rehabilitate weaker muscles and decrease use of over dominating muscles but Pilates also gave me an on-going exercise tool in of itself and I took what I could feel from Pilates into continuing my other exercise regimes (volleyball, swimming, walking, running) all of which are very important to my life of Whole Health & Wellness.

TIPS
If you are experiencing some of the same imbalances, here are some tips to strengthen and reduce over dominance. (from a left weakness, right dominance perspective)
1. To begin to relieve your right dominance, make a mental note what side you stand on with your weight if it is in your right, then make a habit shifting to your left
2. If your left side is weaker, less developed pay attention to
a. are you make a full contact with the ball of the foot to the ground when you are walking (or are you leaning to your pinky side or rolling the foot out)
b. strengthen the left hamstring and inner thigh (do a few extra repetitions)
c. make sure your left and right legs are getting even mobilization in the hip sockets
d. strengthen the co-contraction of the left Transverse Abdominal (low belly) or right side Multifidi (postural spinal muscles): Lie on your stomach and place your left hand or a folded hand towel under the left hip, focus on the left gluteus, hamstring and inner thigh to hover the left leg off the floor WITHOUT collapsing the low belly to the floor or to one side.
