#86 Hydrate with an Infusion of Health!

Feels good because when I make my own "infusions" I know they are healthy!

It is hot out!  Thus, it is especially important to keep hydrated.  Instead of grabbing for a juice, water, or pop, how about grabbing your infuser water bottle?  That's right, this bottle has a built in infuser so you can fill the chamber with all natural flavourful delights.  A few of our favourite water infusing ingredients are: sliced strawberries, cut up orange, and mint leaves.

The bottle we have is made by Tundra. They are easy to clean, and easy to use.

#14 Suffuse Your Space with Citrus & Spice

Here is a little trick that I learned long ago. It combines the visual pleasantry of bright, cheerful colours with spicy, sweet, and citrus olfactory sensations. It definitely adds a bit of a zip and zest to your surroundings.

Aromatherapists have long used this combination to stimulate energy levels while creating a calming foundation to soothe frayed nerves.

Pick up some citrus fruit - a combination of colours is always nice - limes, oranges, and lemons will do.

Next on hand you will have some cloves ready, but before poking them into the fruit you may wish to map out with a pencil the pattern of holes. Arrange the clove studded fruit in a favourite bowl and enjoy!
