Rejuvenated Life By a She

Welcome to the fifteenth post on Rejuvenated Life by a She. It’s hard to believe it’s been fifteen weeks since that very first post. Time does fly when one is having fun. From scribbling to posting to repackaging and selling raw honey…………..it still feels surreal.  Today’s post is dedicated to the memory of my dear doctor, Dr. Amole. He was not just my doctor but a friend and brother. He listened to me as long as I spoke and gave me tissue when I needed to wipe away tears. Thank you for encouraging me to fight HBP and assuring me I could do it. I will miss you for a very long time. Vagus is a Latin word that means wandering. Today’s post is on the Vagus Nerve. Trust me, I’m not here to confuse you but inform you that your gut is directly connected to your brain, so watch what you eat. This wandering nerve is one of the longest and most important nerves, and it does get around. It stretches from the base of the brain all the way down the spinal cord and reaches key organs like the he...

Hello and how are you on this good day? Today’s post is what I’ll like to term “buy now and pay later”. 😏Before you wonder what the means, I’ll explain. It’s a term I learnt from a dear friend’s mum and what it simply means is that, there are things that we buy because they gratify our immediate desires but in the long run, cause pain. Our feet are the foundation of our everyday lives. Every good foundation must have the appropriate support. The health of our feet has a profound effect on our entire body and quality of life.

Investing in good shoes can help you to feel your best and prevent injuries , thereby beneficial to health. For the sake of your overall health, always choose shoes that are supportive and comfortable. Without realising it, wrong shoes can significantly reduce your quality of life.

You are all welcome to today’s post. I encourage you to live well, one day at a time and form healthy habits rather than restrictions; for there is no diet that can beat healthy eating. So stay on the healthy lifestyle lane. “ A simple cup of tea is far from a simple matter ” Mary Lou Heiss. Tea! It is the second most consumed drink in the world, with water in the first position. All teas, Black, Green, Oolong , White and Pu’erh come from the same plant known as Camellia Sinensis. All other drinks we may know as tea are actually ’tisane’ or more widely termed herbal tea. Tisane is any flower, fruit or herb that can be steeped in water and ingested. Every tea contains essential oils (provides the aromas and flavours), polyphenols (provides the health benefits) and caffeine (the energy boost). What differentiates one tea from another is the way the leaves are processed. As all teas come from the same plant with the same basic composition, the benefits are similar. Even though there are d...
