You + 2

You + 2

Them + 2

It can not get easier than that. That is all it takes to be on your way to earning a 6-7 digit income with Isagenix. My husband and I were users of the products for over three years before we looked into the business side of this caring; no compromise; cutting edge; world leader in cellular replenishing nutritional cleansing, youthful aging company. We knew the products worked - that was a no-brainer and we wanted to get our products for free. What do you need to do that? Enrol in Isagenix, then you enrol 2 people then you help those 2 people enrol 2 people. Just keep doing that.

Begin your journey to financial freedom. What's nice about financial freedom? You then have the ability to help others who are not in the same situation.

CULTURE MATTERS

A welcoming climate, humorous corporate staff members, culturally diverse, high fives and hugs left and right, philanthropic endeavors, environmentally conscious actions, and an energy that can not be beat. A beautiful culture is what I have seen over and over again from this amazing company of which I am blessed to be a part.

For three years my husband and I were users of this company's products - with tremendous satisfaction and results. It was not until April of 2011 that we took a look at the business side. Better late than never but wow did we miss out on three years of awesomeness!! 

Zentangle

Have been slightly addicted to Pinterest these days - between the interesting ideas to use in my classroom come fall to the great fitness tips, art, and clothing...and of course the food ideas! One art idea that keeps popping up under the PIN of education is that of Zentangle - a really fun art activity for any age. For my 7 and 5 year old daughters, I divided a large paper into sections and we went at it. It was great for creativity and spending some time together. It is not done, we've been back and forth to it throughout the day and will continue with it throughout the week. My sister had a great idea for this, she said to use fabric and fabric markers then edge it and voila: homemade throw. Here's the piece we began today:

HYDRATE

It's summer in Canada - bring on the heat!  As an elementary school teacher, I am home for the summer with our kids (7 and 5 yrs. old) and if we are not outside keeping busy the bickering between them is enough to drive me mad. Can anyone relate to that?! Throughout the day, our kids drink water - a lot of water, and when they want something different we don't reach for sugar packed energy drinks, but instead they drink Energenix (called Want More Energy in the US).

My dad is in his 60's, still plays hockey and in recent years has taken up tennis. He was an avid pop drinker - three to four a day was the norm for him. Just over a year ago my mom began using Isagenix and he was "stealing" a lot of the shakes, but more so the Energenix. It is rare now to find him drinking pop, instead he has one to two Energenix drinks a day.

I run two to three times a week. These runs get done in the morning when the humidity is a bit less than it is later in the day, then sip on Energenix (orange is my family's favourite) in the afternoon. This doesn't replace my water intake - I also drink at least 2 L of water. Keeping full Nalgene bottles in fridge helps ensure we all get the hydration our bodies' need.

CAMPING

This week we went camping to help kick off summer vacation. Awenda Provincial Park in Ontario, Canada is a great family car camping site. The sites are spacious and the beaches at Georgian Bay have an area that is calm and shallow for quite a distance.

A few years ago my husband purchased a small hotel (or large tent) for half price and that is what we used. A great tent for anyone camping with kids - each of our two daughters had their own "room" and therefore a bit of space from one another when needed! We also hung our Hennessy Hammock Tent giving the kids another place to "hang out." Set a a tarp over one picnic table for cooking and a screen cover over another for eating and that about set us up!

The tent has four "rooms." The kids each had a side wing and we had the middle. The front was like a "foyer."

Camp all set up

As we always do, Isagenix food was brought with us. IsaLean shakes make for the perfect breakfast - we brought along a shaker bottle and individual IsaLean packages and that was all we needed for a protein packed breakfast. Hey, we needed something to balance the Smore's!

PROTEIN SOURCE

It is important to know the source of protein in what you eat. The protein in great tasting (seriously) IsaLean and IsaLean Pro shakes is the best sourced in the world. It comes from grass fed, pasture raised, milked only in season, cheerful cows. That means your body gets the best nutrition possible from a protein shake. Is that important? You betcha!

FUEL THE BODY

I can't say it enough - Isagenix for athletes!! The science behind this all natural nutritional cleanse is solid. The protein in the IsaLean shakes is the best in the world and the Cleanse For Life allows the body to use this awesome nutrition. There is a money back guarantee with Isagenix systems so there should be no fear in giving Isagenix a try! Feed your body!

A GREAT THING

An Isagenix cleanse removes toxins from the blood, kidney, lymphatic system and colon, then replenishes the body with the best nutrition. What does this mean for the body? More energy, lean muscle, less fat. That's a great thing! Clinically tested and backed and used by some of the best scientists and doctors in the world including, but not limited to Dr. John Anderson, Dr. Suk Cho, Dr. Michael Colgan. Money back guarantee.

GO GREEN

Isagenix Greens! The best Greens, hands down, I have EVER tasted. No word of a lie! People I know who try the Greens are always really surprised with the taste. Isagenix Greens contains a superior combination of quality, nutrient-rich plants in one convenient scoop, so you can complement the recommended 3-5 servings of vegetables every day. Drinking Isagenix Greens helps 

• Boost the body's ability to get rid of toxins
• Support a healthy immune system
• Give the body a natural source of calcium
• Enhance digestion
• With weight loss

My husband mixes Isagenix Greens in his shakes, I like them before or after a workout. Tastes so much better than it looks!

DO IT TOGETHER

How do you and your family stay active?

An active lifestyle can consist of so much: gardening, walking, rollerblading, kayaking, dancing, swimming, playing, building, cleaning, and the list can go on. One activity that helps keep me stay active is running. By no means am I an expert on running, it is just something I have always enjoyed on the side (my main activity when I was younger was competitive swimming). Over the past few years, I have run more: number of 5 km runs, a 10 km, and a few half-marathons with a third coming up in a few weeks.

Having two young daughters (ages 7 and 5) it is important to my husband and I that they see the importance of being active. We don't push it, but we do encourage it - that they get outside, play at the park, ride their bikes, fun kid stuff. They have indicated over the past year or so that they would like to run. Last year they both ran a 1 km and loved it. Today, our oldest 5 km at the Toronto Women's Run! The best part: my mom, daughter, and I ran it together. What a great experience.

ISAGENIX FOR KIDS?

Kids need healthy eating too! We all know they share food at school, sneak treats, buy sugar loaded drinks and snacks now and then, so its even more important to encourage they get what their body needs. Can kids use Isagenix? Certain products, yes!  http://www.isagenixhealth.net/blog/2011/08/20/yes-isagenix-can-help-kids-stay-slim/

Our own kids (ages 7 and 5) eat IsaLean Bars almost daily (one half eat), IsaLean Shakes (about a quarter of a shake), honey-almond FibreSnack Bars, and SlimCakes. They drink orange Energenix whenever they can.

HOW ISAGENIX FITS INTO MY RUNNING

Hot one out there today! I have a half marathon coming up in four weeks - that means a long run each Sunday. Today I ran 13.5 K (thank-you to those people who had on their sprinklers!). Before leaving for the run, I had a glass of water along with a Natural Accelerator . As soon as I returned home I had an ounce of Ionix Supreme .  Showered then had a vanilla IsaLean Shake along with my am Ageless Essentials with Product B .  Faster recovery means less injury, and that's what Isagenix does for my running regime.

MAKING FOOD FUN FOR KIDS

We are fortunate with our kids that they both are not afraid to try new foods and for the most part, like everything. They love IsaLean Bars, SlimCakes, and many of the other products. They also love a large variety of healthy foods, especially when arranged in a fun way!

These were at Halloween and are apple slices with almond butter and almonds (monster mouths)

FREE COACHING

Free coaching via email and/or phone for anyone wanted to try a nutritional cleanse using an Isagenix system. Over four years ago, my husband and I each did a 30-day cleanse with the goal of losing some weight - he lost just over 20 lbs, and I lost 17 lbs. of fat (not water or muscle). It was more than weight loss that we experienced though, we had a very noticeable increase in energy, were feeling healthier than we had ever felt, and our skin looked better. For those reasons, we have continued with Isagenix since the first 30-day, and truly can not imagine ever stopping its use.

We even brought Isagenix with us to Jamaica!

READY TO RIDE!

For many years my husband has wanted a motorcycle, MUCH to my dismay. He finally got one - Honda CBR 250 so he can commute to work without spending a ton of money on fuel (at least that was the reason he gave for finally purchasing!). I told him I wanted nothing to do with it, didn't want to hear about it, blah, blah, blah. Well, when I saw it in the garage.....figured I might as will learn to drive it too! We just took, and passed, the M1 exit course/test at Georgian College in Barrie, ON. What a fabulous group of instructors, such patience and expertise.

Thank goodness for Isagenix this weekend. Being a little nervous, I didn't want a heavy breakfast or lunch. IsaLean Shake for breakfast, IsaLean Bar (Chocolate Cream Crisp is my choice) for lunch, with an apple and some almond in between, and some IsaDelights (dark choclate for me) mid afternoon, allowed me to be alert and ready to go for both 8.5 hr sessions Saturday and Sunday. I love my Isagenix!  And now the bike too ;)

Listening intently to instructions

Remembering (finally) to turn and look where I want to go

MOTIVATION

Motivation - not a hard thing to find, is it? Habit, a little more difficult! When it comes to health, it doesn't take long to turn motivation into habit because of the close to immediate results of increased energy, reduced cravings, and overall feeling of better health. You can do it; you just have to start!

SPRING CLEAN FOR YOUR BODY

Spring has sprung! For many that means cleaning out the garage, raking the lawns, giving the home a spring clean. How often do you think about cleaning your body - from the inside out? It doesn't matter what we put into our bodies if they are clogged and "dirty." Get the toxins out, out in the right stuff and feel the difference. For my husband, me, and many friends and family members of ours, we used the Isagenix system to cleanse and nourish and for us that meant a huge increase in energy, better sleep, significant weight loss, and a boost to our immune systems. No gimmick, cleansing the body is not a new idea, but with Isagenix it has never been easier.

POCKET MONEY

The weather has been so mild this winter. Hopefully you were able to hold off any illnesses that lingered around since they did not seem to freeze the "bugs" away. If you were using Isagenix, you may have noticed that even if those around you were ill with colds and flu, you most likely were healthy and still attending work (how do you get a sick day in that way?!!) :)

Isagenix helped me lose fat, gain energy, and boost my immunity as well as my bank account. Currently, enroll yourself, and two other people with a 30-day system each in the same week and you will receive a rebate (in the form of cash) of $200 USD. Two people not in the same week will give you a rebate of $150. Two people with a Pacesetter pack in the same week will give you a rebate of $420 USD; two not in the same week $260. A little pocket money for summer is always nice!

I would be more than happy to talk more about Isagenix with you! Leave me a comment or send me an email if you are interested in learning more :)

WONDERFUL SIDE EFFECT

More energy and better health are why my family and I use Isagenix. The side effect of weight loss through an all natural cleanse is just the bonus! Being able to wear a bikini (with confidence) while in Jamaica this March Break, after having two kids and being close to 40, for me is thanks to Isagenix!

If more energy, a great feeling of health, and/or weight loss are goals you have, feel free to email me (Jodi) at shakeit@usetheblender.com I am more than happy to share my Isagenix story with you!

WHAT'S IN A DAY?

Many people ask what a day of eating looks like for me after four years of using Isagenix.

Here is what today looks like for food; this is not far from what I have everyday (except that I don't often eat away from home):

Woke up, had a Natural Accelertor with a glass of water.  Immediately after, I worked out for an hour, then had 1 oz Ionix Supreme. Showered, then had an IsaLean shake (vanilla with some cinnamon) along with my Ageless Essentials with Product B.  I will have 2 Snacks for mid morning snack, then an IsaLean bar (Chocolate Cream Crisp is my family's favourite) for lunch. Will have an IsaDelight (dark chocolate is my preference by far!) mid afternoon along with orange Energenix mixed with IsaFruits.  For dinner, we are heading to a friend's house (will have my Ageless Essentials p.m.).  Before bed, I will have my IsaFlush with a glass of water.

There could be nothing more natural, easier, or delicious for my family and me. With a 100% money back guarantee, if you would like to give Isagenix a try, I strongly suggest you do! I can help get you started, just ask me about it!
