oh yeah, and thanks for this great article on beets and apples---doing both, particularly the beets which of course clean out the gnarley bits coursing through the blood. And of course, I am referring to that nasty chemo drug which has the stamina of a bull-ox in staying around. Not if I have anything to say about it. love the ayurvedic posts.
hey Barbara, i was just listening to a podcast from the good Dr. Northrup on astrology---not even sure how that works but it came through you I am guessing. great stuff, right? Until some crazed out christians took over the web and start quoting from the bible---doesn't work for me, that kind of intolerance, so I left them a sharp note on the pillaged website. I guess I am a fighter type w/ words although I have no idea which 'node' I am from, as it were. .......
SECOND TIME IN LESS than a month, i have had to go after those types, the first was on martin shaw's site "House of Beasts and Vines". He is a devotee of the wild Christ, yet a so-called christian had the gall to say his words on the Christ 'put a craw in his throat'---what a nutcase. I have always wondered why if Yeshua is the god of love and peace, then why are all his followers causing such vitriol and unkindness? Begs an answer-are they scared? According to psychologists, people tend to flail when they are frightened and proceed to act out their fear by attacking others. I suspect Christ was a great therapist and would often invite many to the table to discuss the differences [ see the Apocrypha: The Gospel of Thomas]. From my observation anyway.
I saw that comment on Christiane's post. Or should I say litany of comments. I just ignore them.I think Christiane's answer was that the three wise men were astrologers. :)
others also said the same--but it's like they were deaf and i think do not get it that to usurp someone else's website is ethically wrong. and you know what ? I also have been a fan of northrup for centuries so thought well this time i can defend her....so i did. get their own substack if hey want to proselytize---i won't be there but maybe they can get together and bore themselves silly.
my only regret is that i had to 'usurp' your blog to let you know that i did get that 'forward' of christiane's email on astrology. oh well.....and just so you know that book is still forth-coming--it's been a dizzy end-to-summer-chaos around this neck-o-the-woods, but i do keep my promises, albeit a wee late.....later, gator. smile croc-dile.......
Oh my goodness, the book could come years later and I wouldn't even notice the delay. Vata.... :) I haven't forgotten about your gift with paid subscription. I'm working on them now.
When you say that you got Christiane's email forwarded to you via me, I'm confused. I only shared it on Notes. I wonder if there's something in my Settings that is doing that. I don't like adding more email to my subscribers. Can you please lmk if you got an actual email? Thx, Jeanne! xo
Thank you for reposting. If off to pull some beetroot from the garden right now! This is very helpful information☺ I will also be enjoying some very welcome sun shortly. My Apple tree looks so dreadful this year I hope my neighbour takes pitty and throws some of their lovely juicy apples my way hehe. Hope you are on the mend x
I have been sending all the greens that go to seed to feed their chickens and in return I got blueberries and blueberry jam so it is a tall ask! However I have just had an offer of cooking apples while at a lemonade stall in my street so perhaps universe heard my plea. Happy days x ☺
Thank you Barbara, interestingly I have lately gravitated to an apple a day!
But, if only there had been excess heat to clear up this summer - alas most of the time it has been overcast! I don't feel like I have taken in all the sun I need to prepare me for winter....
Always there is a mysterious force at work. Just this morning I was reading the benefits of eating apples....and when I read the last one, I thought of you. You probably knew this but I thought it cool and right in your wheelhouse. Had to share. This info is from Farmhouse Teas. Go forward, Barbara! LOL
Here are some other interesting apple health facts!
1)Apple skins contain quercetin, a type of plant pigment flavonoid that helps boost your immune system and reduce inflammation.
2)High fiber in apples helps regulate cholesterol levels by binding to cholesterol in the digestive system and aiding its elimination from the body.
3)Apples aid digestion and cleanse heat by providing a good source of dietary fiber, which promotes healthy bowel movements and helps remove toxins from the body.
4)Pectin, found in apples, supports gut health by acting as a prebiotic, nourishing beneficial gut bacteria and promoting a healthy balance of microorganisms in the digestive system.
5)Apples help manage weight due to their high fiber content, which promotes feelings of fullness and helps control appetite, leading to reduced calorie intake.
6)Fresh local fruits (and veggies) that are unwashed contain seasonal probiotics that help our guts adjust to each different season.
Thank you for sharing!! I am sorry I don't know your name. That's great information and I really appreciate you taking the time to post it here. I especially love #6 and wish people would realize this more. 🍎🍎🍎 💚

You're so welcome, Jeanne! Glad you're loving Ayurveda as much as I do. :) I love beets, too! xoxo

I feel the same way, Clair. In fact, I'm going to go out and sit in the sun right now! And yay for an apple a day! xoxo
Mercury is a stinker, indeed! I’m glad you were able to get this one back up.
OMG, Amanda! I was laughing so hard and grateful that I even know what MR is! Thanks for reading/commenting! 💚💚💚
