Ready For Christmas

Five Minute Fudge Wreath

Prep Time: 5 minutes

A super easy delicious fudge that has become a holiday tradition!

Ingredients:

• 1- 12 ounce bag semisweet chocolate morsels (12 ounces)
• 9 ounces peanut butter morsels (3/4 of a 12 ounce bag)
• 1- 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk *SAVE the empty can!
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 8 ounces chopped nuts of choice (optional)
• Candied red and green cherries, for garnish (optional)

Directions:

1. Place a heavy pot on the stove and pre-heat it over low heat. Add chocolate and peanut butter morsels and milk stir until morsels are melted and milk is combined. *Save the empty condensed milk can.
2. Stir in the vanilla and remove the fudge from heat. If adding nuts stir in immediately.
3. Line round cake pan with plastic wrap and lightly coat with cooking spray. Cover the empty condensed milk can with plastic wrap and place in center of cake pan.
4. Spoon fudge into pan around can, making sure to center the can if it drifts.
5. The fudge will set up almost immediately. Garnish can only be added in the first minute or two that the fudge is in the pan, so work quickly. Decorate your wreath with “holly” made from cut candied red and green cherries. Sometimes I sprinkle with red and/or green sprinkles as well.
6. Chill covered in the refrigerator. Remove the can from the center, remove fudge from pan, discard plastic wrap and place on decorative plate, and cover.

Variations: Use mint or butterscotch morsels in place of peanut butter for other flavors.

Combat Mold with Essential oils

In addition to removing the source of mold in your home, it is helpful to diffuse essential oils (which accesses the same olfactory neuronal pathway as mold) to clean the air and balance the body.  This is also helpful for mitigating mold outside of the home, like in schools or the workplace.   The following blends are some of my favorites for mitigating mold and fungus.

Mold is known to contribute to inflammatory health conditions, including learning disabilities, gastrointestinal disturbances, heart problems, Cancer, Lyme Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Fibromyalgia, problems with thyroid regulation (both excess and deficiency), and several autoimmune diseases.

Mold is a bit of a silent killer, hiding in homes, office buildings, hotel room and schools, causing many of us to feel awful, often without really knowing why.

 

In fact, as many as 30% of us may have a genetic susceptibility to bio toxins like mold, where the immune system fails to recognize the mold as a toxin and cannot flag the toxins or make anti-bodies necessary to clear the mold from the body. This allows the toxins to build up in the body unchecked with symptoms that build with each exposure.

 

It’s interesting that the olfactory system, the neural pathway for the sense of smell, directly communicates with your brain via your olfactory neurons. This can be a good thing in the case of essential oils, or pose a health challenge in the case of toxins that you might inhale or smell, like mold.

 

Don’t despair, because just as toxins like mold can cross directly into your brain through the olfactory neurons, so can essential oils.
Essential Oils are a great tool to use to help negate the negative effects of mold by cleaning the mold, cleaning the air and supporting the body’s organs of detoxification.

Trouble Sleeping ?

If you have any difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or not feeling well rested after sleep, you sleep rhythms may be out of balance and you might benefit from resetting your sleep-wake cycle, known as the Circadian Rhythm.

 

 

What are Circadian Rhythms?

 

Circadian rhythms can influence sleep-wake cycles, hormone release, body temperature and other important bodily functions. They have been linked to various sleep disorders, such as insomnia. Abnormal circadian rhythms have also been associated with obesity, diabetes, depression, bipolar disorder and seasonal affective disorder.

 

An imbalance in the circadian rhythm can present with indicators such as:

• Inability to fall asleep
• Inability to stay asleep
• Difficulty waking up in the morning
• Not feeling well after sleep
• Not recovering from physical activity
• Drop of energy between 4 and 7
• Headache only in day parts

 

Stress can throw off our Circadian Rhythms

 

Stress can throw off our sleep and vice versa.  Poor sleep patterns can cause greater stress.  That’s because the sleep hormone melatonin and the stress hormone cortisol have an antagonistic relationship. 

 

Our cortisol rhythms are supposed to be highest in the morning and then wane as the day wears on.  When people are active at night and slow in the morning, the cortisol patterns are reversed.   Elevated cortisol levels at night actually turn off melatonin production.  Similarly, if melatonin is elevated then cortisol is depressed.  So, when the body does not release enough  melatonin, cortisol levels stay high through the night contributing to adrenal fatigue  and blood sugar dysregulation.

 

To help improve sleep and reduce excess stress on the adrenal glands, consider resetting the circadian rhythm and balancing the pineal gland with the Circadian Rhythm blend before bed.
