Hi Guys!

I wanted to share my preferred dessert that I love to make all year round.

PS:

(Studies have suggested that increasing consumption of plant foods like sweet potatoes decreases the risk of obesity, heart disease, and promotes a healthy complexion)

 

 

Sweet Potato Casserole

 

  • 5 large sweet potatoes
  • 1 can of coconut milk
  • 2 Tbsp. coconut oil
  • 2 Tbsp. maple syrup
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • juice of half an orange

Toping:

  • 2 cups chopped raw pecans
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 3 Tbsp maple syrup
  • 3 tbsp melted coconut oil
Preheat oven to 350
Add sweet potato chunks to water. Boil until fork tender–about 10 minutes.
Drain potatoes, then dump them back in the large pot with all the other ingredients. Using a hand mixer, blend until potatoes reach desired consistency and flavor.
In a small bowl, combine all topping ingredients until pecans are well coated.

Electrotherapy

The external addition of micro-current will increase the production of protein synthesis, oxygenation, ion exchange, absorption of nutrients, and helps with the elimination of waste products. Electrical treatments offer ways to address the issues that go with any skin condition to help clients maintain not only a youthful appearance, but also a good skin health.

Incorporating these treatments into your skincare will give you dramatic anti-aging benefits.

Time for a new adventure

I just wanted to share with you that I recently started a new position with a new spa. I have been so busy training & learning a German skincare line (https://us.babor.com). The spa is inside the infamous Beverly Hilton, I’ve never worked at a hotel before so this is all brand new to me. I am adjusting & adapting, it’s all very exciting. At the spa I was working at before they only had women clientele, & here it is open to men & women! They also offer much more services such as microdermabrasion, NuFace, model age masks, etc. I cant wait to show you guys all the new things that I’m learning.FullSizeRender-41 IMG_4993 IMG_4988
