Is your child anxious about going back to school? It can be nerve-wracking for a child to go into a new school or new grade.

See what mum Ann has to say on Faithful-to- Nature: “My 12-year- old son started using Omega Up about 6 months ago. He is quite an anxious child and it has helped him through the 2nd and 3rd terms of his Grade 7 year, with a marked improvement in his results. We’ll definitely continue using the Omega Up capsules into the future.” You can order online at Faithful-to- Nature. And if mum or dad are going through stressful times, it’s fantastic for them too!

It’s not just our physical bodies that sometimes need supplement support. Our mental health can benefit from supplementation too. Important brain nutrients are Vitamin B12 (a deficiency can contribute to depression and affects 25% of the population) Vitamin D (Vitamin D receptors appear in a wide variety of brain tissue suggesting vitamin D has an important role to play in your brain) and Omega-3 fats – important for mental clarity, focus and have been show to improve serious mental disorders such as depression, schizophrenia, psychosis and bipolar disorder. Most people are deficient in all 3. Rosie S, of Port Elizabeth says: “I am so impressed with OMEGA-UP™. I was experiencing mild depression and started using OMEGA-UP After just a few weeks I was feeling on top of the world! However I was sceptical it was the effects of using EPA until I ran out and the emotional heaviness returned. I started taking OMEGA-UP again and in no time I started noticing the difference in my feelings of well being and general happiness. I am now completely convinced of the importance of OMEGA-UP’s 7:1 EPA to DHA ratio!” #TakeTheOtherOption 30 Aug 2018 A HAPPY TUMMY MEANS A HAPPY YOU 27 Jul 2018 HELP!

Tip #3 Have a laugh!
We all love to laugh! That’s because laughing produces positive physiological (body) effects such as reducing muscle tension, increasing the flow of oxygen to the blood, exercising the heart, and producing endorphins (naturally produced body chemicals that decrease pain and increase a sense of well-being and euphoria). Research shows that those who have the ability to see the funny side of life are more cheerful and have a higher self-esteem. They’re also more likely to create supportive social relationships (these positive relationships that help us deal with stressful situations). So go see a favourite stand-up comedian, download a funny movie, read a laugh-out-loud book. Give yourself the best possible chance to find something funny, better still share it with others and you can’t help but feel better! #TakeTheOtherOption 30 Aug 2018 A HAPPY TUMMY MEANS A HAPPY YOU 27 Jul 2018 HELP!

All that crazy, festive activity of parties, shopping for gifts and meal-planning can feel more stressful than work and have you wondering what’s happened to being on holiday!So make actual appointments in your diary or online calendar that are really just meetings between you and your favourite place in the garden, you and every episode of Stranger Things, or you and whatever else helps you feel relaxed and at peace with yourself. Then stick to them in the same way you would stick to appointments with other people.It’s a way of honouring your own commitments to yourself. #TakeTheOtherOption 30 Aug 2018 A HAPPY TUMMY MEANS A HAPPY YOU 27 Jul 2018 HELP!

Sure it’s a time when you have more freedom and flexibility to accept invitations to gatherings and parties, but sometimes it can all feel a bit much, when what you really need is some down-time. So here’s the answer to that feeling of suddenly dreading a party you were looking forward to a month ago. Instead of responding to every invitation with an absolute ‘yes, be whole-heartedly enthusiastic about your hope to go. Give yourself some breathing space by saying, ‘I really hope to make it,’ or ‘I’m going to do my best to be there.’ And leave it at that. #TakeTheOtherOption 30 Aug 2018 A HAPPY TUMMY MEANS A HAPPY YOU 27 Jul 2018 HELP!
