Guyabano-Dalandan mix for my sick kids

It's been three days since my kids JD and JM suffers from severe cough and colds. We are having sleepless and a lot of boohoo nights as well. 

BIG Sigghhhh... I'm so worried for them because they're not getting a good sleep. And I can't tolerate it anymore. 

To solve the issue, I grabbed 10 leaves of guyabano, boil it and wait until the temperature gets warmish. I added 2 squeezed of dark green oranges citrus.

Viola! They had a sweet tasty and natural citrus juice. Ooops! Consult your doctor before you try  this at home.

The effect: JD and JM were able to sleep soundly the night they drank guyabano-dalandan juice. Sever cough and colds almost gone now. Thanks be to God! 

Why guyabano-dalandan?

Guyabano leaves are believed to have tranquilizing and sedative properties.

Boiling the leaves and drinking may help induce sleep. (click source here) And based from my own experience, truly boiled guyabano leaves made me feel sleepy that time when I drunk 1 to 2 glasses day. The effect lasted for 2 days. That's why I opt to offer this drink to my sleepless kids.

Dalandan is part of the citrus family. citrus fruits are high in vitamin C, and are good sources of folate and potassium. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant and protects the body from damaging free radicals (click source here). Of course we need a lot of vitamin C in times of severe cough and colds.

That's all to share today...

Have a nice day!!!

Swing by HUMAN HEART NATURE Store

I heard and read a lot of good things about Human Heart Nature. Seriously, I got curious what's with HHN all about so, I visited their website. I was amazed and fell in-love with almost all of their NATURAL beauty and  products (loud and clear: NATURAL / NO HARMFUL CHEMICALS!!!)

My mind was drooling hard that time, because I really wanted to avail the membership right after I've learned about HHN. Luckily, I found someone to sponsor my membership fee at HHN (Ate Hazel, my loving sis.inlaw. BIG THANKS to you!).

"Ha!" At the back of my mind, "see you real soon babe (HNN)" 

YES!  I did it. I personally went at HHN head office (Commonwealth QC), all by myself. Oh well, I was totally compulsive and thrilled to swing by HHN 's head office. Definitely, I loved the experience and it would be such a pleasure to come back.

I must say, HHN head office's concept store is good-natured, gracious and urbane indeed.

Oh look here! Below are some of the photos I took during my visit. (Just so you know: HHN gives a green light for those who want to take pictures inside the store. So cool!)

The store's big enough to cater huge number of customers.

Cozy area. I love it!

At the FREE COFFEE corner.

Play area for kids. 

Sorry, I had to post this. But the comfort room is to cozy. I can hang out here.

Yours truly!!! I love that PINK basket. Cute!

I was amazed and felt thankful that I finally found a beauty haven that is perfect for our budget. A practical yet natural way to pamper me and my family's skin.

My hand-picked products review later! Teeheee! I'm excited to share.
