Jodie Cameron discovers five simple ways Organika can help you eat more seasonally, sleep more soundly, and boost your vital organs as we transition to the cooler months…
In Chinese Medicine, winter is defined by ‘yin’ or resting energy, and is a time of retreat, reflection and regeneration where we revive our self-care routines and nourish our bodies with warm goodness. From fuelling the body with hearty veggie-loaded soups and stews to immunity-boosting smoothies and açaí bowls packed full of antioxidants to replenish the body, mind and soul, Organika is your one-stop shop for all things wellness!
For us lucky sunshiners, our winters are relatively mild – blink and you’ll miss them – but that doesn’t mean we’re exempt from the occasional chilly morning or drafty day that can leave us fighting the seasonal nasties! From gut friendly go-to’s and natural supplements to a full range of ethical and sustainable certified organic wines, Noosa’s favourite healthy hub has you covered for those cosy nights in around the fire.
But don’t wait to feel rundown – head in store today and let Organika enhance your yin energy with a heart-healthy breakfast, organic coffee, and start stockpiling all those winter pantry staples to nourish yourself from head-to-toe and inside-out!
SIMPLE WAYS TO BOOST YOUR BODY THIS WINTER:
-
Nourish your insides with warm food: When the weather gets cold, our digestion tends to slow down, which means cooked foods are easier on the digestive system than raw foods. From hearty soups to flavourful curries and comforting kitchari, Organika’s Ready to Heat at home meals are meticulously curated to deliver a symphony of flavours and nutrients. Experience the convenience of homemade meals without compromising on quality or flavour – a wholesome option crafted with care and commitment to certified organic ingredients, all prepared in-house. Say goodbye to meal prep stress and hello to wholesome goodness, conveniently packaged and ready to satisfy your cravings in minutes!
-
Revitalise vital organs with a boost of berries: The kidneys are the primary organ associated with winter, and require a lot of rest in order to rejuvenate and consolidate energy to prepare for the growth, expansion and activity of spring – so a freezer full of Mt Wilder Berries can never go astray! Hand-picked at peak ripeness and flash-frozen to preserve their freshness, these organic wild-harvested berries are packed with nutrients. Blueberries, strawberries, raspberries and blackberries are all rich in antioxidants and bursting with flavour. Add to smoothies, stir into yoghurt, a steaming bowl of porridge or enjoy straight from the freezer. Kickstart your day with a delicious dose of berry goodness!
-
Boost antioxidants with a natural source of caffeine: A cold winter’s day calls for a warming drink from the Organika Café and at home. The Hummble range of cacao is infused with potent yet specific adaptogenic superfoods, Ayurvedic herbs, medicinal mushrooms and masala spices to bring a new form of energy and vitality to your day. Cacao is rich in antioxidants, particularly flavonoids, which help combat oxidative stress and reduce inflammation in the body. A natural source of caffeine, cacao contains compounds like theobromine and phenylethylamine, which can promote feelings of happiness and wellbeing by stimulating the release of endorphins in the brain. A no-brainer pantry essential this winter!
-
Gut immunity boosters: Elevate your winter wellness and keep your gut in-check with NU JMU Turmeric + Ginger Pepper Shots! With anti-inflammatory properties, each shot is a powerful blend of organic, locally sourced ingredients designed to invigorate your body, mind and soul. Enjoy the rich,
spicy blend of turmeric and ginger as a quick shot or mixed into your favourite beverage. Add to water, soda, coconut water, or juice, hot or cold, these shots are a versatile addition to your daily routine and an ideal energising pick-me-up or continuous immune and arthritis support. Also available in a convenient 6-pack. - Sleep boosters: Get a decent night’s sleep with Ancient Minerals Magnesium! Ranging from highly concentrated magnesium oil to bath salts and lotions for sensitive skin, magnesium is known to improve sleep, reduce muscle tension, lessen pain associated with migraine headaches, and address neurological disorders such as anxiety and depression. Dreamy winter days are on the horizon!
