Chasing goals, mental strength & mindfulness

Today's Podcast:

Listen to today's podcast here.

On today’s episode we discuss how we are keeping our mindset for growth, improvement and success while our priorities shift to being good parents.

If you have gone from being a hard working, driven, independant person to someone with the same goals, values and drive but also children to nurture and provide for you know how difficult this can be.

In our episode today we share what is working for us, what balance really means now and how we prioritize work and play.

Topics discussed:

- finding "balance" between work and home life.

- setting priorities when you are trying to "do it all"

- practicing foresight

- using mindfulness to acheive your goals

Astragalus or Ecchinacea? - Noble by Nature

Since we now have our own Astragalus supplement (found here) we often are asked about why we choose this over Ecchinacea for immune support sometimes. Here are the details:

Astragalus stimulates T cell and macrophage production to provide a broad immune boost while at the same time being supportive to the adrenal glands (ie. helps with stress responses and to prevent people from getting run down). It is commonly used to support immune systems that are objectively depleted or for those at risk of poor immunity.

Echinacea has been shown in clinical trials to shorten the duration of acute upper respiratory tract infections (colds and flus). Its mechanism is likely as an immunomodulator through NK and macrophage activation (ie. making the immune system more efficient for a short period of time). It is commonly used at the onset of a cold.

If you have questions about any supplement please let us know. These types of comparison posts can be so valuable to share.

We hope you have a great weekend and enjoy listening to our podcast.
