The first stop on our journey today is in the foothills of Southern Alberta, Canada. Home of the 100% Raw Forever Bee Creamed Clover Honey.

Did you know that Raw Honey does not spike your insulin levels like sugar does? Honey can be used as a substitute in your coffee, tea, yoghurt, cooking and baking! You will get to benefit from all the healthy honey nutrients and save yourself (and your family) from those sugar-crashes!

Part of our wellness Journey is choosing ingredients that are beneficial for our bodies. Raw honey is an absolutely fantastic health booster.
- It is packed with antioxidants
- It has anti-fungal and antibacterial properties
- Helps with coughs and sore throats
- Soothes and heals the digestive system
- Helps to heal cuts and burns (for pets too!)

JOURNEY INTO WELLNESS

Having 5 kids and 2 grandkids, we use our raw creamed honey all the time in our home to promote health and wellbeing. One of my favourite ways to use it is to relieve sore throats and coughs.
A cup of hot water
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon raw, unfiltered honey

The reason we use raw and unfiltered honey is because of all the natural antioxidants and antibacterial compounds found in the honey. We also love the fact that it is "creamed" so that it will never go hard and will never crystallize

GIVEAWAY!!!

We are giving away a 500g jar of our Raw, Ceamed Clover Honey.

Peace Of Mind is a comfort feeling for me. Trusting that the systems I have in place will help me achieve the things I want in life. Having my favourite products delivered right to my door when I need them is exactly what I need.

We always receive so many emails from folks saying, Oh my goodness I forgot to order honey. I'm out. Or, it would be great if I can just get the same order every month. We are so thrilled to offer this service to you!

We have grown a selection of bundles, our favourites right now are the Basics Bundle and the Preferred Bundle. We love these two because they include a 3kg of our Creamed Clover Honey and the Flavoured Honey of the Month! You can choose to have these arrive every month, every other month, twice a year, whatever works best for your family.

2. You will always receive the gift of the month, no matter when your order is processed. (Otherwise you have to wait for the gift offer to be live)
3. Earn Honey Money rewards automatically with every order. Redeem them for extra goodies to come along with your next subscription delivery.

JOURNEY INTO WELLNESS

Time is one of our most valuable assets. By having extra time we get to spend more time with our kids, pursue our passions and hobbies and spend more time on our physical and emotional well-being. By finding even small ways in your life to save time or to be more efficient, we can create more time.
1. Pick one day of the week to do your meal preps and prepare in large quantities for the whole week.
2. Set only a block of time for social media, emails and online activities - it is easy to get carried away by scrolling and we lose much time that way.
3. Make cleaning a family activity once per week and block it off for a certain amount of time. Everyone works hard for an hour and the house will be clean and everyone can go do something fun together :)

GIVEAWAY!!!
This month we are giving away a one month $60 Subscription Bundle :) We will deliver/ship it to you including your FREE Gift-with-Purchase. How fun is that.

ENTER TO WIN!!!
Which time-saving tips do you have that you can share with the rest of us? Helpful apps, quick tips and tricks around the house, meal prep? We would love to talk to you about this.

We are obsessed with the warm spicy aromas of fall. First our Apple Pie Honey, and now our newest Beeswax & Honey Soap: Warm Spice Soap.

This beautifully handcrafted soap made by our friends Justin and Judith from Bubbles & Balms is delightfully scented with natural cinnamon, orange, clove, beeswax, and honey! This bar lathers beautifully and moisturizes your skin while it is gentle enough to use on the most sensitive skin. All ingredients are natural and sustainably harvested. Use as a body bar, face soap, shampoo bar, or hand soap!

JOURNEY INTO WELLNESS

Making a few small changes in how we do everyday things around the house can have a huge impact on our wellness journey. We can create healthy substitutes for our bodies and the environment all at once :)
1. Replace your soap, shampoo, and other bath products with ones that are not wrapped up in plastics and do not contain any environmentally harmful packaging. By making that small change you will keep a huge amount of plastics out of the landfills by the end of a year.
2. Switch to all natural products. Our skin is our largest organ and absorbs a lot of things we put on it. Make sure the products you use on your skin is non-toxic, and chemical free, made with love and clean ingredients that is healthy for your whole body.

GIVEAWAY!
We are giving away a bar of our Warm Spice Honey and Beeswax Soap to a lucky winner. Enter to win by letting us know about 1 small change you would like to make toward a healthier self-care routine :)

It's important to stretch and take care of our muscles at every level. It's about time we pamper those hands! Most of us use our hands a lot, in repetitive motions. It can cause all kinds of pains and irriations. Using a nice lotion and some massage techniques is a great way to take care of our most used tools in life!

Have you ever tried the snap test? This is a great way to see if the lotion you are using is being absorbed by your skin or if you're just coating yourself in the lotion. Grab the closest jar of Body Butter to you and do a snap test experiment with us!
The Snap Test:
After applying your Body Butter or lotion, try snapping your fingers.
If you can snap your fingers clearly with no slipping around there's a good chance the product is working well for you!

We know that the Emergency Room team at the Foothills South Center Campus loved our body butter on their hands when their hands were all dried out from frequent washing and sanitizing.
Does your team work with their hands?

Giveaway!!
1. Do you know someone who works with their hands? Tag your friend to let them know you care.
2. Tell us how your Snap Test Experiment went in the comment below!
3. If your friend comments back and either one of your names gets drawn, you will both win a Forever Bee Body Butter.

Were you thinking it might be hard to think of only one person who has been a little hard on their hands this year? Maybe you'd like to put together some gift baskets for a few people? We can do custom gifts for your staff, clients, loved ones, weddings and more! Reach out to us if you want to know more!

Winterizing our hives involves many steps in order to ensure the wellbeing of our bees.

In this video you will see how we make sure our beehives are covered in nice warm, insulating blankets, they have to have sufficient airflow to make sure they don't suffocate, they need to have at least two entrances to their hive and their hive needs to be tilted slightly forward to that no water or moisture builds up inside the hive over the winter.

Did you know.....?

Bees do not hibernate for the winter. They stay active and on nice days they will even leave the hive to start cleaning it out, look around for water, etc. Also, an interesting fact is that all the female bees (worker bees) kick out all the males (drones). So in the winter there are only females left in the hive. In all fairness, the males do not help in any way with any of the work. The only job that the males have is to impregnate the queen. They do not have any other purpose in the hive.

If you have any questions about our bees, Matt is here live to answer your questions and to share loads more information with you about our bees. Please feel free to spend a few minutes and visit with Matt :)

If you have tried any of our flavoured honey, you know we pride ourselves on using one organically farmed ingredient as well as our Raw Creamed Clover Honey... But did you know each of those amazing and delicious flavours also have health benefits?

This delicious, naturally dark golden brown Licorice Honey is the dream unique flavour for any Licorice lover! Made with organically farmed Egyptian Anise Seed, our Licorice Honey is one of the most rare licorice-flavoured products that is completely GLUTEN FREE! This allows all of you living a gluten-free life to once again enjoy a loved childhood flavour!

JOURNEY INTO WELLNESS

One way to focus on wellness is to be aware of the different types of foods you eat and how they affect you. Do you notice that whenever your have some cheese or milk in your coffee, your tummy is suddenly bloated? Do you notice that you have pain somewhere in your body when you eat meat or grains or seeds? It is so important to be aware of what we put in our bodies instead of just focussing on managing symptoms.

A gluten free diet is popular among people with grain allergies. Eating a low gluten diet has so many more benefits!
- ease digestive symptoms,
- reduce chronic inflammation
- boost energy
- promote weight loss.

Anise Seeds & Honey together is a very nutritious combination. Beneficial for your gut health, and mental health. Anise has been known to help with bacterial infections and even reduce symptoms of blood sugar imbalances! Plus the two raw natural ingredients have a complex and bold flavour, though it is beyond better than those sugar packed licorice candies!

GIVEAWAY:
We are giving away a 250 ml jar of Licorice Honey to a lucky winner!

ENTER TO WIN:
1) Like this Licorice Honey Post in our Facebook Event
2) Comment with special things you notice or pay attention to in your diet. Or do you have questions/answers for anyone here?
3) Share a recipe you know uses honey (would it be good with Licorice Honey?)
4) Tag one (1) friend you think would LOVE Licorice Honey

Whether you use Licorice Honey for it's health benefits or its flavour, we know it is incredibly versatile and is delicious in endless different forms!

MORE NEW CREATIONS!

We just LOVE this Cinnamon Orange Clove blend, so much that we had Bubbles and Balms whip us up a batch of Bath Bombs!

These moisturizing bath bombs have a long-lasting fizz, rinse easily as the tub drains, and don't include any micas, gluten, microplastics, glitters, dyes, sulfates, parabens, or fragrances. They are an easy-to-love fit for the dry & sensitive skin in your home!

JOURNEY INTO WELLNESS

How do you get started in the day? Do you use something like coffee, tea or matcha to keep your energy up? Have you ever tired Bee Pollen in the morning?

Between 40-60% protein in every granule, Bee Pollen is packed full of so many nutrients to help naturally boost your energy and save yourself from that mid morning crash that comes from caffeine!

This is the only protein source that bees have since they do not eat other bugs. Bees are fed bee pollen in the form of bee bread during their first week of life. Without bee pollen the hive will die because the babies will not be able to grow. Bee Pollen also contains over 90 other vitamins and minerals and all your amino acids required by the body. This is a super important part of a bees diet and that is why only the strongest hives get harvested for pollen and only for about 3 weeks out of the year.

Bee Pollen is not only healthy for bees but also for humans. It is great for:
- A substantial energy boost
- Relieves symptoms of seasonal allergies and asthma
- A boost to your digestive system with the help of naturally occurring enzymes
- A host of over 90 vitamins and minerals that are readily available and easily absorbed
- It improves the intestinal flora and has a natural antibiotic effect in the body that boosts the immune system
- It restores hormonal balance and helps to eliminate cravings and fight addictions
- Cardiovascular health in terms of lowering cholesterol, improving circulation and strengthening blood vessels
- Helps with the side-effect of chemo and radiation when going through Cancer treatments.

*Note that if you are allergic to bee stings, it is not recommended that you consume Bee Pollen!* However, if you have Seasonal Allergies we highly recommend that you try Bee Pollen :)

GIVEAWAY!!!!
We would love to give away a 175g jar of Bee Pollen to a lucky winner.

Do you know why we love our Beeswax Candles so much?
We love our pure Beeswax Candles because they are just that.. PURE! These light golden Candles are 100% natural and and made by our team with filtered and melted Forever Bee Beeswax. Once the wax has been melted down, it is then poured into molds, like our beautiful Ball Candle in this picture!
Pure Beeswax Candles do not drip, are smokeless and clean the air while burning.

Natural products are our passion! Truly Pure Beeswax will fill your home with the aroma of Raw Honey, sweet, subtle, and comforting. Imagine taking the evening off, relaxing with a great book on the couch, wrapped in a comfy blankie by the light of beautiful soft-glowing candles. Happiness is.... :)

JOURNEY INTO WELLNESS
Peace of mind is such an important part of wellbeing. Obtaining this peace of mind can sometimes be challenging whether because of upset, a busy lifestyle, struggles or neglect.

1. Find a time every day to quiet your mind and just be - light a Beeswax Candle and stare into the flame to help you focus
2. Make time daily to connect with nature - walk barefoot outside, watch the birds, breathe the fresh air. Grounding will create peace
3. When you feel upset, take the time to reflect on your feelings. Take responsibility for it and see where it is coming from. Be kind to yourself and work through those feelings gently. Next time they will not seem so overwhelming

GIVEAWAY!!!!
We are giving away one of our favourite limited time Beeswax Candles, our Fern Pillar Candle. Let us know how you create peace in your life. If you have not yet done so, how can you imagine implementing peace in your life?
