Calluses & Dry Skin be Gone!

What is a Callus??
Well, in simple terms it is hardened skin. It is usually found on the foot but also can be found on the hand where a blister once was.
So we know they are not pretty along with infamous cracked, dry skin. 
Nothing more unsightly than walking around in sandles and your feet look and feel like the dryest desert, right?? Or what about wanting that foot rub and you sorry about the risk of cutting the massagers hands because your feet are so rough!

I know extreme right!!!! But I know I'm not that far off. Hehe ☺
How can we soothe and heal those areas and bring softness, circulation and life back?
First, I suggest a full bath in aromatic bath salts.  Bath salts soften the skin and help pull out impurities in the body.
If you can't enjoy a bath do a foot soak in warm water for at least 15-20 mins.
Second, pull out the trusty lava stone. Ie. Pumice stone and rub across rough areas while skin is still soft.  You can do this while in the bath or after.  The Lava Stone gently removes the rough dry skin and leaves you feeling soft and smooth.
Third step, after all dry skin and calluses have been gently removed apply Allure Skin & Hair Creme by Zoetic Essentials to all areas. The holistic blend of butters (incl shea & cocoa) and oils (incl coconut, apricot, black castor) and essential oils add healing and therapeutic properties.  Your skin will love you for the treatment.
Do this a couple time per week and I am sure you'll see results in no time..
And at the same time you are using holistic Zoetic Essential products and removing toxins from your body.
Sounds like a win win to me.
Give it a try

Alis Turkey Delight - Simple Crock pot Recipes

Time is always so important to us all.
That's why I think the crock pot is one of  the best inventions ever. It teaches us to SLOW DOWN and Cook Slow....
SO.... here is another crock pot recipe for you that incorporates slow cooked Turkey with raw veggies....
Start with raw rinsed turkey drumsticks.
Use a full sized crock pot to ensure the full turkey drumstick fits and will be covered with water.
Fill the crock pot 3/4 way full with water
Add celtic salt, cinnamon and anise seeds
Cook fully on high for 4 hours
if you cook on low it may take 6 hours
(Note* you will know the turkey legs are fully cooked when you pick up the bone and the meat just falls off ) (Yum!!!)

How to Assemble a great meal with the slow cooked Turkey
2-4oz turkey
Lightly drizzle with a light sauce (home made barbecue or a red tomato sauce OR anything you want) :)
add raw chopped vegetable salad:
    tomatoes
    cucumbers
    hungarian peppers
    jalapenos
    green onion
    hemp oil
  
add a side of roughly chopped mixed greens (arugula, kale, spinach)
Top with a sliced Apricot or any fruit (pear, apple, mango, peach, necatrine, plum etc...)
and a squeeze of fresh lime juice
This adds a natural sweet flavor to off set the vegetable medley.

*Tip - use dried fruit as another option (go for freeze dried fruits because they contain no extra sugar or oils)

Walla!!! done...
Now tell me how it tastes..
