Guest Blog from Aandi, Chicago Demo Team


Here's a guest blog post and introduction from one of our Bliss operatives in Chicago, Illinois... :)



The Extended Bliss Family Keeps on Growing and Glowing!

Hi, I’m Aandi and I demo Coconut Bliss in Chicago; I am also a kombucha brewer with a budding new business and new baby daughter. Her name is Ariana Anahata (Anahata is the name of the heart chakra). My beautiful fiancĂ©e Angela and I welcomed her into the world on January 3rd, 2010. She is perfect and got a great start in life by us giving conscious consideration to our diet and health before her birth.

Recently, she got a little infection in one of her eyes. My first approach to fix her up - regular warm saline wash and application of coconut oil for its excellent natural germ fighting properties. It worked great, of course. Angela was worried about stretch marks during pregnancy so we started early - applying coconut oil to her belly religiously. Conclusion, no stretch marks! This stuff really works great for everything! After I shave, coconut oil. Toast in the morning, coconut oil! Stir-fry coconut oil! Nature's sports drink - fresh coconut water! I am probably preaching to the choir here. I could just go on and on about the benefits of coconut everything.

I’m also crazy about kombucha, also. Every day when I wake up, kombucha. Last thing before I go to sleep, kombucha. That is why I started a kombucha brewery here in Chicago; it’s called the Living Well Brewery. I also work with green restaurants, and have my own mobile (raw organic) juice bar with wheatgrass and various drink options that I occasionally set up for private events. I am in training to be a juice bar manager at a new green Greek restaurant. I am working with Midwest organic farms to promote local sales in Chicago. My goal is to change the way people feel about food. I am hoping that humanity will get to the point where our gifts of knowledge and wisdom from the generations of past will be shared freely with those of the generations to come and there will be abundance and bliss for all.

P.S. Coconut Bliss is the healthiest ice cream you can buy in my opinion. Vanilla is my favorite.

Thank you for reading!
Much bliss to all!

  2. Ah, yes, the power of the coconut! I have always been adamant in advising my readers that the best way to avoid stretchmarks is through the religious application of pure coconut oil the moment you find out that you are pregnant.

    I do get a lot of questions, though, if coconut oil will work as well if you apply it only after giving birth and stretch marks have already appeared. I am still not sure how to answer them since I never had stretch marks even after 3 pregnancies. I see to it that I have a full jar of coconut oil by my bedside and I never miss an application at night no matter how tired I am.

    So what do you think? Can coconut oil help in eliminating stretch marks as well as it prevents it?

  4. Hi,
    Which works for you better: kombucha or coconut water? I haven't tried kombucha yet...it comes from a mushroom, right?...bit bizarre for me...

  5. A healthy lifestyle is a great lifestyle. I'm glad people are still taking the initiative of finding healthy drinks like wheatgrass and barley juices.

    Organic and natural is the way to go.

  6. It is heartening to see people like you embracing sensible lifestyle choices by making an effort to eat well and live well. America has a chronic disease crisis that is threatening to bring America to its knees. Wall-e is a great movie that depicts the most likely future we are living into if we continue living the way we are living. People like you are making a big difference to the health of the community. Keep up the good work!

  14. Really, new flavor of coco ice cream vince?

    That's cool. I think coco-milk is added to make the ice cream a lot creamy and more flavorful. Can't wait to taste them.

  16. One can get rid of a new Stretch Mark quickly with a regular massaging routine with extra virgin coconut oil; however the older ones require a great amount of exfoliation and lubrication. Once the rough and dead skin is removed, Stretch Marks do start to fade away.
