There are soooo many busy ladeez in search of this type of workshop!

Here's the DISCLAIMER--
(I know they are some weird ones below, but I just gotta say it or we'll get some weird ones in the bunch & will throw off everybody's experience!)

This workshop is perfect for you if:

-You are open to new things, ideas, flavors etc.

-If you love the kitchen and fabulous foods that are both tasty and nutritious( or open to learning)

-if you are sick of the No-NO-NO  approach to diet, health and detox  & you are looking for a healthy, natural and sustainable way of engaging in foods

-if you really want to know what's going on out there in health foods stores, ie.. what to buy, how to choose, what you are being sold( and some of it being sold as "healthy")

-You are closed to new ideas

-If you are very stuck on ways foods have to be &have to taste

-If you do not enjoy a whole plethora of different tastes and textures

-If you are a whiner, complainer, debbie downer, or energy sucker or attention getter

If you are very regimented with the way you eat now and "already" have an idea of what you think is good for you

if you are overly obsessed with calories, fat grams etc... ( a little obsessing is ok, but if its how you rule your world, probably not going to be into my class/philosophies)

-if you are easily offended by some f-bombs dropped once in a while or the use of words like friggin, sh*t,crap etc... 

Do know that I LOVE working with people, connecting and sharing foods & ideas. I've got a unique style & approach, usually say things wildly over the top yet usually true etc...all in which makes it way more fun!

I like the atmosphere to be fun, light, and allow for people to be fully immersed, engaged & get a lot of the experience.

So some people are just not the right fit & thats ok!
The ones who do show up, love it and usually, and in most cases, if you're working with me for awhile, your life transforms on some level and usually many levels.

Are you ready to truly feel fabulous?

Dreamy, Creamy Vitality-NEW smoothie recipe!

I've been blending away the last few weeks and I think I have nailed it!

the perfect recipe using Samis Superfoods Vitality mix.

I am just in LOVE with it right now.

I think you will too!

I've had a few clients over to taste test and the

response was:

"DELISH" 

"FABULOUS"

"I'm so excited to have a new smoothie"

"How could someone not buy this when they taste this smoothie"(gotta love this girl!!)

Here's the deal-(sounds like its a lot to do below but its super easy once you get everything lined up)

NOTE:I'm given you the super specific instructions!

-2 cups Fresh Almond Mylk( yes, I know its a drag but it sooooooooo good for you)

NOTE-If you're not sure how to do it, it goes like this,

1 cup raw almonds ( soaked overnight ) in 3 cups water, blend on high, strain with nut bag or cheese cloth

Investing in a good nut bag will make it much easier , the one I use is from VIVAPURA, check it out here.

I make large batches of the fresh mylk at a time so I have a few days worth

If you'd like to "cheat", I mean, make it easier but not as nutritious on yourself use:

2 cups rice milk, hemp milk, almond milk, So Delicious coconut milk or any of the other store bought brands, remember these are pasteurized so they have very little nutritional value.

-2 cup water or fresh coconut water from the inside of a thai coconut

(again, not the store bought coconut water)

-1/2 cup chia seed gel

 (ok, here's how this baby works, take 1 cup chia place in 4 cups purified water, let soak in glass jar overnight, it will turn into a gel like substance, store this gel in fridge and use scoops of the end product daily in all types of smoothies, puddings, etc....) This process of soaking really makes a difference in how effective the chia works.  It makes it a hella' lot more bio-available, does not bloat the belly, and blends easier making drinks more "creamy"

NOTE- if you don't know, chias amazing for Omega 3, calcium, antioxidants, fiber and is like a natural colon cleanser... so perfect for daily cleaning, no need to go on a "detox" just "BE"cleansing your system daily by using chia=:)

-3 Heaping TB of vitality from Sami's Superfoods

-1/2 frozen banana(yes, take the peels off b/f freezing) or 1/3 bag of you fave frozen/fresh berries

-2 TB of UDOS 3-6-9 oil( by FLORA @ whole foods) or 2 TB coconut oil(my fave is Vivapura)

You also can use one of each as they work more effective together in terms of effectiveness of the Omegas

GOOD RAW FATS are the KEY to health, vitality, longevity & yes, weight loss!

They need to be super high quality, unrefined, & plant based-preferably in glass in a dark bottle.

More info on good fats coming soon but just as a little teaser....

I'm sure you are hearing how "good" fish oils are, right, well, get this 2 TB of UDOS is equivalent to 17 fish oil caps!

thats some super good dose of omegas gettin' in plus its pure!

-Heaping scoop of cinnamon- to taste
I like to load up as it is sooooo good for you!

Real cinnamon helps to regulate blood sugar levels and balance the natural sugars that are in your drink plus it is a super dose of naturally-occurring antioxidants

( be sure to buy ORGANIC cinnamon as commercial spices are laden with yucky stuff!)

Place all in a blender and whip till creamy and dreamy!

Couple options-

-if you desire it a tad more sweet place a couple drops of vanilla creme stevia

-if you feel it needs a little bit more of a "punch" add a pinch of a platinum salt like sun fire salt

-if you'd like it more creamy, add a few TB of tocotrienols( raw vitamin E powder)

-if you need it more nutrient dense, feel free to add in green powder, spirilina, hemp seeds, a handful of gojis any other singe superfoods to create your own designer smoothie!

The above is just a foundation and you can add, edit, delete, play around with the create one that's perfect for you!

Let me know when you've tried it or created your own rendition. Leave a comment below. Would love to hear what you are doing at home!

P.S.If you need Sami's or you need more of it, its on SALE through Aug 31st. 10% off the retail of $45.

You can call or email me( lisa@lisapersico.com) to place an order.

P.P.S.I will be at the Andersonville Galleria doing a tasting with this recipe above if you'd like to come check it out.  Clark/ Foster August 6th 5pm-8pm

Come get a "taste" of the NEW inner beauty boutique!

 

Very Exciting NEWS!

My products are now available at the Andersonville Galleria!

One of my incredible colleagues and clients was so inspired by health & wellness in relationship to natural beauty from my lifestyle workshop a few years ago, she created "if a goddess wore make-up"! Long-time make-up artist for weddings and special events for over 20 years, Sheila Hansen switched her focus to natural, green, and healthier options for both skin/body care & make-up! 

After a year of success at the Galleria with the the 'goddess" boutique, she came up with a  brilliant idea to place some of my elite products in her space that focus on inner beauty and compliment what she's doing! 

Alas, a lightbulb went off  for me and it was a synergy meant to happen. All this time, I have been talking about vitamin C, MSM, silica, antioxidants, mineralization, greens, superfoods and how all this affects your health, cleansing & your body but plays a major role in both your beauty and longevity! 

So we've teamed up and now I have a home for some of my amazing picks that enhance your flow and your glow from the inside out!  

Please welcome, Lisa Persico's INNER beauty boutique.

To check out the new space and some of my new featured products, I'll be doing a tasting on July 1st from 5pm to 7pm at the Andersonville Galleria( see invite above for more info)! Some of you have heard through the grapevine that I am carrying the NEW vitality( a new version of bliss). I am pleased to announce it is in and will be sampled on thursday!

Hope to see you there!

Detox Your World-Spring Jumpstart!

Great news!

As many of you know, I have been working for awhile on putting together a group cleanse/detox! Originally, it was going to be for the new year but it just did not feel right... something about the new year hype, false promises and failed resolutions had me not wanting to be a part of that marketing overload!

And then February came along, but with super-duper cold temps and snow, it did not seem like the best time to roll out and now...low and behold Spring is right around the corner!

Its so close I can almost taste it!

So here it is, finally!

A Spring Jumpstart, Kick-Off, Renewal!

Its time to DETOX your world!

Back by popular demand, I am bringing back the Ejuva(one of the deepest herbal systems used for cleansing, if you are unfamiliar see www.ejuva.com). You asked , you receive!

Since I've moved to hosting my "Lifestyle" classes, many of you have missed that twice a year or once a year deep cleansing that works miracles on the physical level but indeed does go beyond that and allows for restoring and balancing more of a spiritual, mental and emotional transformation as well!

If you are looking to jumpstart the spring season then join us for this 28 day transformational detox of your world!

This cleanse is for newbies and advanced. You can always go deeper with the ejuva being the nature of how it is developed! The ejuva is one of the easiest , most effective cleanses and can be done at various levels based on where your needs are. This is not meant to be intense, turn your life upside down and get you sick type of cleanse, it is a slow, gentle process that you can manage based on how you feel & what's happening with your body! Ejuva is also one of the highest end products on the market today, known as the "Cadillac of cleanses", it is the most pure, most potent and most powerful I've seen to date without being habit forming, gripping or full of inorganic materials.

Clean out the internal cob webs and dust yourself off for feeling really great plus:

-Reduced cravings, bloating , gas
-Improved digestion
-Weight management
-Increased energy
-Better mindset and mood
-Overall more positive outlook on life
& more!

I will walk you through every step of the way.
This is an exclusive opportunity as I will be working with you the whole month personally!
Spaces are limited as the groups are kept small.
Now is your chance to be supported & motivated to get through the 28 day transformation!

I do consider myself a modern day woman looking for real life solutions and really, a girls gotta eat!! I love sharing my secrets of how I went from smoking, drinking,popping pills and basically starving myself without a nutrient in my body for years TO eating decadent, rich foods from all over the world that have cleansed me, rebuilt me, recharged me and re-energized me and still do everyday!

Now, my goal is to TELL and SHOW a whole bunch of people about it-- how I did it, why I did it, & what I really do eat!

We all got eat , right?

And we are all "trying" to eat healthy, right?

I hope you'll join me to learn some of my "quickies" at this exclusive event.

This is nutrition at its finest with high quality ingredients, loads of veggies packed into every dish & amazing superfoods to incorporate into your day.

Don't settle for boring health food especially if its from a can, bag, or box.

This is fresh, pure and real.

Some dishes are plant-based raw & some are cooked vegetarian/vegan.
