Osmosis at Home: Balance your Chakra's with Color


Obtaining spiritual balance can feel like a full time job. It takes commitment and hard work to tap into yourself and provide your spirit with what it needs to flourish. Our Chakras, which represents different parts of our being, can be quite powerful when all are aligned. That is why we have designed some tips on gaining balance through color to keep your spirit happy.


Root Chakra (1): Your root chakra is located near your pelvic floor. This chakra connects you to the earth providing grounded roots in your life. To feel more grounded, place pops of red and onyx around your living room and outdoor patio. Place stones like Onyx, Ruby, and Red Jasper around things from the earth like houseplants, flowers, or outdoor rugs.


Sacral Chakra (2): Located near your reproductive organs, the Sacral Chakra connects us to our compassion, sexuality, and joy. To bring balance to this Chakra, place a vase, decorative bowl, or gem stone with orange hues in your bedroom or bathroom. Tigers eye and Fire Opal are great stones to utilize for balance of your second chakra.

Solar Plexus Chakra (3): This chakra is your energy source. Associated with the fire element, your solar plexus provides confidence, cheery disposition, and self love. Decorate your space with plenty of yellow, topaz, and light orange. Citrine, Topaz, and Moonstone are great gems to add to your bathroom so they are the first thing you see upon waking up to start your day. 


Heart Chakra: (4): Our heart chakra is just as it sounds, connecting us to our outside relationships and love. A weak heart chakra can contribute to rocky relationships fueled by jealousy and anger. To gain balance and clarity to your heart chakra, surround yourself with soft pinks and greens. Rose Quartz is the perfect stone to carry with you at all times to keep your heart in line.


Throat Chakra (5): Our throat chakra give us our voice. This is our communication center which feeds off of shades of blue for balance and clarity. Blue Lace Agate and Turquoise are great colors to keep in your office or near your work space for a better sense of vocal balance.


Third Eye Chakra (6): This is our center, representing our intuition, senses, and vision of the world. A balanced third eye can provide deep insight into our lives and the lives of others. Surround yourself with shades of indigo and stones of Lapis Lazuli all around your home to feel connected to your intuition and spirit.



Crown Chakra (7): located at the base of your head, our crown chakra provides mental clarity and balance of the nerves. Amethyst is the perfect gem to sleep next to in order to quiet the mind and sooth your nervous system. Sleeping on light purple sheets wouldn't hurt either.



Take advantage of these colors to better balance your spirit. Check out our makeup to match some of these chakra shades with your looks! Now go find some gems and stones, take a deep breath, and release yourself to your chakra needs.

Wellness: Gain Energy the Natural Way


Have you ever tried having a conversation with someone BEFORE your morning cup of coffee? It never turns out too well does it? Energy seems to be a luxury now-a-days. It's tough to feel awake and ready to take on the day after a long day of work and binge watching Netflix at night. While we are all about that morning cup of coffee, continuing to indulge throughout the day can really throw a wrench in your circadian rhythm causing you to have sleep disruptions and feel groggy upon waking instead of feeling well rested and ready to go. Osmosis knows it's not easy to say no to the mid afternoon caffeine trip, but we do have 5 easy solutions for you to gain energy in a more natural way.

* Sleep! Getting the right amount of sleep is not only vital to having sustained energy throughout the day, it's vital to your overall health and wellness. Relax Harmonized Water helps promote sounder sleep and helps reduce stress. It's so hard to turn off our minds at night. Try taking five pumps of Relax 30 minutes before you want to hit the hay, then meditate for 20 minutes. Focus on breathing. In through your nose and out through your mouth. Tell each body part to rest, starting with your feet. Once you get to your head, focus on clearing your mind and give yourself permission to put your daily stressors away for the night.

* Wake up and WORK OUT! Working out in the morning has been proven to kick-start energy and sustain it throughout the day. Try yoga, cardio, or a fun barre class to get your heart, body, and spirit moving. Check out our tips for your pre-workout fuel here.

* Energize Me Harmonized Water. Once you hit that mid morning slump (around 11 AM), take 5 pumps of Energize Me. This frequency targets the body's natural energy sources, giving you a non-jittery bolt of "Let's do this!" Energize Me can be taken throughout the day (and before your workout) to better provide you with non-caffeinated energy.

*Rejuvenate Mind and Body Harmonized Water: The perfect addition to your lunch time routine! Rejuvenate helps tired muscles and organs (like your brain). These frequencies target mental sharpness, focus and serotonin (the hormone that helps us feel happy)! This is the perfect pick-me-up before you attack the second half of your day.

*Stretch. Halfway through your day, take a 10 minute break to go someplace relaxing and quiet to realign the body and mind. Stretch from head to toe and give your muscles a quick shake-out to wake them up from being at a desk. Practice deep breathing while you stretch to ensure your brain is getting a good dose of oxygen.

You CAN get through the day without that second cup of coffee or soda. Practice these five steps and start seeing boundless energy results within two weeks!

Wellness Wednesday: Pre-Workout Fuel!




It is officially that time of year... Pre-swimsuit season! The gym memberships are primed, you've completed your Spring Detox and you are ready to take the next step to a healthy, strong, swimsuit-ready body! What ever workout you are about to embark on (or already do consistently) it is extremely important to make sure you give your body the proper fuel before you start. Pre-workout fuel is all about the carbs and sugar (natural sugar that is). We love prepping our workout with Energize Me Harmonized Water. It's the perfect start to hydrating and prepping your body for some work. Once we have taken our Energize Me we like to start with something simple like whole wheat toast with sliced bananas and cinnamon. The carbs from the toast will provide consistent energy throughout your workout, while the banana will keep your potassium levels balanced (we lose potassium when we sweat) and cinnamon, of course helps rev up your metabolism.  Another great and tasty recipe we love is an overnight oats smoothie.

The night before your workout combine:

1/2 cup gluten free oats
3/4 cup milk, water, or dairy-free milk (like almond or coconut)
1/2 Banana
8-10 whole pecans
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 tablespoon pure maple syrup

Place all ingredients in a blender or sealed container and pop in the fridge overnight.

Once you are ready to fuel up (1 -1/2 hours before your workout) blend the ingredients, eat from a bowl, or drink from a cup. This little pre-workout gem gives you plenty of fuel by gradually releasing sugar to your body for an extra kick of energy while the water content from the bananas will help keep your body hydrated.

After your pre-workout meal, take an Elevate. This will kick your metabolism to ready mode, provide sustained energy throughout your workout, AND help improve muscle tone and function. Elevate also keeps your brain sharp, helping you stay focused during your workout.

Between Energize Me, Elevate, and a healthy pre-workout meal, you have a trifecta of awesome just waiting to help you obtain a healthy, strong body. Now put on your 'tennies' and hit the pavement!

Wellness Wednesday - Elevate Your Health



Unless you live under a rock, we are sure that all you've heard this week is "New Year, New You" "Time to join a gym" "Time to eat more veggies," so on and so forth. Yes, the new year is an opportunity for you to re-evaluate your lifestyle, choices, and goals, but resolutions can be a bit daunting and intimidating. We tend to make huge resolutions that fizzle within the first month of the year. We all want to lose weight, work out more, start a new career, become a better person, learn a new skill etc. and these are BIG goals that take time, strategy and commitment that won't accomplish themselves over night. Personal wellness is a goal we all strive for and there is no shortage of ways to achieve it. We want to help you on your wellness journey, so today marks the first post of our new blog column Wellness Wednesday. Each week we will provide you with tips and information to better your holistic lifestyle and all around health. This week we wanted to shine the spotlight on a perfect New Years "New You" conduit. Elevate.
Our Elevate supplement is the perfect tool to aid in your 2016 wellness goals. From weight loss to immune deficiencies and hormone health, this little gem of a pill helps boost your ATP and DNA repair abilities making your body a well oiled machine, capable of anything! Cat's Claw, Amino Acids, and B Vitamins boost your body's immunity and cell repair. Pyruvate and Ganoderma detox the body and aid in converting fat into energy. CoQ10 aids in protection against free radicals to better protect your body while you work towards your wellness goals. Elevate is the perfect addition to your daily health routine. Combined with clean eating and proper hydration, Elevate can help you loose weight, obtain more energy, AND most important, regulate better sleep! Elevate helps harmonize a number of different symptoms our bodies face in the way of hormonal and adrenal health. When your adrenal glands are balanced, your body can better regulate hormone production and snuff symptoms that come from adrenal fatigue and hormone imbalance thus aiding in a better metabolism, higher energy, and an end to brain fog.

We all know that every New Year brings a flurry of resolutions and goals. Most of them tend to be body focused. Elevate is a wonderful supplement to help you meet those goals. More important, Elevate will help you feel balance. When our hormones are in balance, the task of self improvement is more manageable.

The journey to wellness doesn't have to be a long hard path. It can be enjoyable, rewarding work. Elevate is a great place to start your wellness journey.
