MZD Podcast – Ep 94   Welcome to the Mountain! Well how are you feeling today? Are you the picture of health you always dreamed you would be? Today we're going to talk about cultivating one of the most important aspects of your being – Your Health. Our bodies are tied into our entire being and affect not only the way we feel, but our mind and the way we see the world and interact with everyone around us… that is, our relationships. Have you ever been “hangry”? Then you know what I mean! You're not necessarily mad at the world or angry at the people around you. You're just hungry with low blood sugar and it's affecting your mood at that very moment. For Pete's sake, (everyone else's around you), eat something! Not only are our minds and emotions and relationships affected by our health, but our spiritual well-being is as well. You see, we cannot divide ourselves into fragments of being – saying things like, “Well, we are Spiritual beings, so the Spirit is the only thing that matters!” or, “The Mind is the most important thing, because without thought, there is no being”, or, “No, only the body matters because when the body dies, you die”. The truth is, we are all of those things, Body, Mind and Spirit, and the well-being of each affects the other. Alternative medicine advocate Deepak Chopra tells us in his book, Ageless Body, Timeless Mind,   “The biochemistry of the body is a product of awareness. Beliefs, thoughts, and emotions create the chemical reactions that uphold life in every cell. An aging cell is the end product of awareness that has forgotten how to remain new.”   But how do we remain new? It's a question posed daily, coming at us from every angle through ads and promotions offering anti-aging products, promising that if you buy this or try that, you will look younger, feel better, be sexier, and on and on. Books and magazines and TV show and movies glorify youth and beauty, jumping to the superficial rewards of taking care of yourself; things like glamour and popularity, sex-appeal and even fame, while apparently ignoring the underlying importance of health, well-being and longevity. So back to the question. How do we “remain new”? This is a very deep and involved subject that has been studied and written about in many articles, books and journals filled with hundreds of thousands of pages of research, tests and observations, breaking down the biology of the human body and how it ages, and what it needs for optimum health and performance. I know this is going to sound obvious or over-simplified, but in a nutshell, the answer is simply to live a healthy life. Our bodies were created to regenerate billions of new cells daily, and have been doing it since the day we were born. We know how to, we have simply forgotten that the way to cultivate health is to simply live by health principles. And don't lie to yourself, you KNOW how to do it. Let's dumb it down into seven simple steps: Simply put, get plenty of sleep, eat healthfully, drink plenty of water, abstain from unhealthy ingredients and activities, and exercise regularly. And the two we are primarily here for today, Daily Meditation with Time Spent in Nature. More specifically, here's a quick bullet-point checklist with a few pointers: Sleep – 7 to 8 hours a night. Keep in mind that the hours before midnight are typically the most productive in healing and body repair. Ad avoid erratic sleep times and hours.   Diet – Make it your aim to be a Nutritarian. This means you eat for nutrition, not just flavor, or what seems healthier than just “the bad stuff”. Stay away from processed foods. A quick list of the good stuff might include Greens – Broccoli, Kale, Spinach, Bok Choy and other leafy greens. Fruits like bananas, oranges and lemons pineapple and grapefruit. Berries, like blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries and cherries. Eat Onions, Mushrooms, Beans and Seeds like Pumpkin Seeds, Sunflower Seeds, Flax Seeds and Chia Seeds. Daily portions of each of these categories are known sources of full nutrition for a healthy body. And don't forget healthy fats like avocados and nuts, especially walnuts, almonds and pecans. While I really enjoy eggs for breakfast, I replace cow's milk with almond milk and non-fat, plain yogurt with berries or bananas and cinnamon. Other favorites include oatmeal and quinoa. And remember yogurt is a great source of healthy bacteria important for gut health. Now I'm no doctor or health expert, and this is not a comprehensive list, but it's a great place to start the next time you're at the grocery store. By the way, don't forget your vitamins and minerals and things like ginger, turmeric and fish oil. A great book Melissa and I would recommend is Eat Smarter by Stevenson Shawn, where he teaches how to use the power of food to reboot your metabolism, upgrade your brain and transform your life. A wonderful place to start in educating yourself in nutritional health. Another favorite of ours is the website Simple Green Smoothies with Jen Hansard, offering plant-based recipes and ideas for delicious smoothies. Yum!   Drink plenty of water. 64 ounces, or 8 tall glasses a day is recommended. First thing in the morning when I wake up, I like to bath my inner body with a tall glass of water, chased by another half cup of water filled with 3 or 4 splashes of Organic, Raw, Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar. The kind with the “Mother” included which contains strands of proteins, enzymes, and friendly bacteria.  It may take a bit getting used to the taste, but it's a great way to lower your blood sugar in the morning, setting the tone for developing a hunger for only healthy foods at the start of the day.   Stay away from things you know are bad for you – tobacco, drugs, excessive alcohol, sugar and processed foods, AND destructive, negative thoughts and behaviors.   Simply put 10,000 steps per day, along with get-your-heart-pumping cardio 3 to 5 times per week. So much more can be said about this but I think you know what this means. Move! By the way, Green Exercise, that is, exercise outdoors is all the better if you can do it. More on this in upcoming episodes.   Meditate daily. This will help you maintain a positive, healthy outlook on life, which influences and affects your entire being dramatically.   And finally, Get Outdoors in Nature, breathe fresh air, walk in beautiful, natural surroundings and fill your heart with the sights, sounds and full-sensory experience if Nature. It has been scientifically proven to: Significantly reduce your stress levels Lower your blood pressure Improves cognitive functioning Control your thoughts and behaviors Improve your relationships Increase your confidence Boost your health in a plethora of ways including, Elevate your mood, happiness & outlook on life So there you have it. All you need to know about how to cultivate health, given in under ten minutes! Remember, if you want to have the energy that it takes to create momentum and change in your life, there is nothing more important, (or irreplaceable) than your health and well-being. Let's revisit Chopra's statement, “The biochemistry of the body is a product of awareness. Beliefs, thoughts, and emotions create the chemical reactions that uphold life in every cell. An aging cell is the end product of awareness that has forgotten how to remain new.” We set up our body by living with healthy principles, and then we help it remember how to remain new through awareness and meditation. So if you're ready, let's begin cultivating health today by integrating our body into the entire experience through today's meditation.

Growing up, what were your family’s eating habits? Fruits and vegetables? Canned spaghetti and doughnuts? At our house, once in a while we’d have pizza, and maybe once a year for a crazy treat we could pick out a sugary cereal -- Booberry was my fav. But for the most part, we were a junk food-free house.Fast forward quite a few years, and now when I go home to visit, it’s like I’m entering Candy Land. Brownies, cookies, pies staring me in the face. Even though I don’t have much of a sweet tooth, I find these treats hard to resist, and I usually don’t, which is why my clothes felt a little too close for comfort after my last visit.So, I decided to try the Fresh Start: 21-Day Cleanse created by Simple Green Smoothies co-founder Jen Hansard. This was exactly the reset my body needed. I lost weight, gained a ton of energy, and my mind felt clearer. As we begin a new year, I thought you might be interested in a fresh start, as well, so I invited Jen onto the Part of Something Greater podcast to talk about how to improve your quality of life through clean eating. I also talk about what the Stoics think about eating well to improve your character, mind, body, and spirit.I liked Jen's cleanse so much that I became an affiliate partner for her. This means that if you purchase her Fresh Start plan through my link, I could get a small commission at no extra cost to you. This is a great way to support the podcast. Of course, I only recommend products and services I love.Visit sarahmikutel.com to get in touch about how we can work one-on-one together to help you achieve more peace, happiness, and positive transformation in your life.Looking for a guide to help you discover your Enneagram personality type?

Remember that every single green drink you create is an investment in your quality of life — now and always. ~Kris Carr, Crazy Sexy Juice It is no secret that I LOVE smoothies! Here is the deal. I do not love to cook by nature. I have figured out how to find joy in the kitchen because I love to feel good, and I discovered that what I eat can make me feel great or pretty bad. The think about smoothies is they are a fast and yummy way to get my fruits and veggies, super foods, and hydration. I use smoothies to start the day off well, during the 3pm slump instead of coffee or a cookie, and before going out. Because the food is blended, I feel it differently, and it is so much easier to digest! Smoothies are a great tool for a family trying to live a healthy and vibrant life. I want to make sure you have the resources you need to make this change in your life. In order to make this a lifestyle change, my suggestion is just to focus on this one thing for a week. Commit to a smoothie lifestyle, plan for it, prep for it, and have fun fitting smoothies into you days in different ways. At the end of a week, you will have some new smoothie practices, and hopefully feel great! Here are some things you might consider: Look up some great recipes. There are recipes in the FREE SMOOTHIE PLANNING PACKET, and our friends at Simple Green Smoothies have some great ideas. Designate a day of the week where smoothies will be the family snack. Designate a day of the week where you will send a smoothie to school. Create your own morning green smoothie practice. Build your pantry with smoothie ingredients. Build your freezer with smoothie ingredients. Find a friend and swop smoothies throughout the week. Accountability is a great thing when trying to create a new habit! Buy straws, to-go cups, ball jars or thermoses to make drinking smoothies more portable or fun. Find a protein powder you love. Remember to make sure it is whole food vs. isolated protein. I love Juice Plus Complete. Get a high-speed blender. Here is a link for a refurbished 5200 with free shipping… which is what I recommend. Don’t have the funds for a high-speed blender? Create a Vitamix plan. Can you set money aside each month? Is there someone (or a group of people) who always get you gifts you don’t use… can they help? Come share what you create and ask Qs on Instagram! Use the hashtag #plansimplemeals so we can see you, or just come join the smoothie conversation wherever you see a smoothie image! Here are the links I shared in this episode… Join me in Faster Way to Fat Loss with Amanda Tress. You can sign up here or shoot me an email with questions. Get your Vitamix here.

The inspiring story behind Simple Green Smoothies started on a playground, with two mothers watching their kids play together. At the time, Jen Hansard and Jadah Sellner were both first-time mothers, and they shared a desire to get back into the workforce. But they decided they were going to do it on their own terms and by following their passions. In 2007, they officially made the jump from being playdate partners to professional collaborators when they began working together on a parenting blog. Not long after they were working on more projects together, with Simple Green Smoothies being one of them. What initially started off as a side-hustle turned into a full-fledged business, getting some serious traction after they discovered Instagram in 2012. Through a mixture of follower challenges, influencer marketing, and a whole ton of heart, they started building a multimillion-dollar business. Their key tactic? Focusing on community, first and foremost. “We listen to our community, we poll them all the time asking, 'What do you want from us?' 'What do you need?' 'What’s your biggest struggle right now?'," Hansard says. “Find ways to really nurture that tribe and get to know them, just like you would in a real romantic relationship, so that you can serve them to the best of your ability," Sellner says. From being stay-at-home mothers working multiple jobs in order to keep their families afloat, to being the co-founders of a multimillion-dollar business with thousands of customers, the story of Simple Green Smoothies is a must-listen for any entrepreneur. In this week's episode you will learn: Why it's all about building a community first How to reach out to influencers to help promote your product What social media platform you should use and how to figure out what works for you How to generate new leads by providing a free experience Why you need to focus on one core message when you're just starting out & so much more!

I thought about titling this episode "How To Be A Total F*cking QUEEN" because that is what Jadah Sellner is. This conversation was an all time favorite, I even rearranged the podcast schedule to bump it up because I didn't want you to have to wait to hear it.

http://www.slowyourhome.com/34 Sometimes I’ll have a conversation with a guest that leaves me feeling like I’ve spent an hour chatting with a friend, and today’s episode with Jen Hansard - one half of the dynamic Simple Green Smoothies duo - is one of them. Jen and I talk about the massive success of Simple Green Smoothies and the brand new book (out today!) but we also talk about the health crises that started it all. Like a lot of us, Jen was addicted to coffee and getting by on a diet high in processed food. Her energy was flagging and she found herself and family constantly sick. It wasn’t until she was forced to make big changes to her family’s diet that she really recognised the impact our food has on our health and well being. The Simple Green Smoothies movement grew from there and now the girls are rockstars of wellness. But we also talk about balance and being realistic in the changes we make, why there's always room for Pizza Fridays, the importance of community and Jen’s favourite smoothie recipe. I also share my non-recipe for a go-to breakfast smoothie that looks disgusting but tastes amazing. (And now I’m hungry.)

Jadah Sellner and Jen Hansard are the founders of Simple Green Smoothies, a quest-driven company that has grown into a massive global community in an astonishingly short amount of time.They're also the co-authors the new book Simple Green Smoothies: 100+ Tasty Recipes to Lose Weight, Gain Energy, and Feel Great in Your Body.Just a few years ago, though, they were two young moms, struggling mightily to get by, on every level.Money was tight, they both "had" to work to help support their families. Jadah was acting in educational plays for schools and Jen was doing design work. But it just wasn't enough.Neither found any sense of deeper purpose or sustainable income in what they were doing, so they began to hatch a plan to work together to create a community for moms.They spent every extra minute trying to build an education website and community, but it just wasn't working. At the same time, Jadah was trying to figure out how to reclaim her health, but as a young mom, she wanted something fast and easy to start. So, she began making one simple green smoothie a day.That one act changed her health and her life, fueling the loss of more than 25 pounds and giving her tons of energy. And, it became the trigger for a much bigger change. Wanting to share this simple solution with other moms, Jen and Jadah created an instagram account, named it Simple Green Smoothies, and began to create smoothie recipes and share them. The account exploded. People loved their images, detailed recipes and generosity. As I write this, 382,000 people follow the account.Over the next few years, Jen and Jadah parlayed that one instagram account into a massively popular Simple Green Smoothies website, a global community that has now seen hundreds of thousands of people go through their 30-day challenge and now a new book.They've also built a powerhouse business fueled by health and love and become successful enough to become the main financial supporters of their families. Most important, they love working together, they love what they do and they have a fierce commitment to building their company and community from a place of love.We dive into their inspiring journey together in today's episode.

Welcome back to the Food Blogger Pro podcast! This week, Bjork interviews the cofounder of Simple Green Smoothies, Jadah Sellner, about building a successful online business without blogging. Wait a minute here. We're Food Blogger Pro. What is this "business without blogging" stuff all about? Well, our main goal here at FBP is to help people create a business at the intersection of food and the web. While blogging is a common, even well-defined, path to that, we also realize it's possible to build a business doing less blogging and more of everything else. Take, for example, Jadah Sellner and Jen Hansard, the cofounders of Simple Green Smoothies. They tried blogging at first, but found success when the started to focus on one specific idea and sharing that idea freely on Instagram. They now run a successful business (with a website and an occasionally-updated blog) and have a massive tribe of followers who love their microblogged content on social media. In this truly awesome interview, Jadah shares: How Simple Green Smoothies came to be The first failed business attempts that led to Simple Green Smoothies Why inner confidence is so important when you're building your business The resources that inspired Jadah when she had yet to find success Why you should tease your products before the launch How to find the products that will be successful Why you shouldn't take people out of their dance club (say whaat?!) How many people you should be talking to in your blog posts Why you need to be flexible as an entrepreneur
