When it comes to daily health, New Chapter believes Nature got it right the first time – nourishment, protection and health that come from whole food — not from the synthetic vitamins, minerals and chemical herbal isolates you’ll find in conventional supplements and multivitamins.
And ladies they even take care of our men Every Man® multivitamins.
While these are a little on the pricey side ($27.89+) its an investment in your health that’s well worth it.
2) Fitness – Yoga Exercise: Salutation to the Sun
The following are its twelve key positions:
1) Prayer: Standing with your feet and legs together, the core stretched and relaxed. Inhale deeply and exhale putting both palms in front of the chest.
2) Lifted arms posture: Inhale and raise the arms stretched. Bend the upper body backwards, keeping the neck relaxed and pushing the hips forward while keeping your legs stretched.
3) Hands and feet position: Exhale and bend forward keeping your back completely straight, with the head between your arms until fingers touch the ground. Contract the abdomen to exhale all the air, while looking at the belly button.
4) Extended Step Position: inhale and stretch your right leg backwards, putting both the knee and the forefoot on the floor, with arms well stretched, flat hands on the floor aligned with the front foot (left), bending the left leg by means of pressing the thigh against the stomach and chest. At the end of the movement the weight of the body rests on two hands, left foot and right knee.
5) Mountain Posture: Straighten the right leg and put the two legs together, with flat hands on the floor and keeping your arms stretched. Lift the hips and lower your head in order to form a reversed V.
6) Chaturanga: Exhale and flex the arms slowly, keeping the elbows very close to your ribs. First, put the knees on the floor, then the chest at the end of the position, only the tip of the feet, the knees, the chest, the hands will touch the ground. The hips and abdomen will be slightly raised from the ground.
7) Cobra Position: Inhale and raise the body from the waist stretching the arms which should still be bending very close to the sides, with the hands pressing the floor and aligned with the shoulders, keep your buttocks contracted and your shoulders downwards.
*Repeat
8. Mountain Posture.
9. Extended Step Position.
10. Repeat Hands and feet position.
11. Arms stretched position.
12. Exhale and slowly return to standing position. Lower the arms beside the body and join the palms of the hands (as per number 1).
3) Wellness – Pond’s Wet Cleansing Towelettes
I’ve enjoyed sampling this product for the past 30 days and will be purchasing a pack at my next visit to Shoppers as its certainly replaced my make up remover and cotton pad method!
POND’S Wet Cleansing Towelettes, are the No. 1 brand of wet cleansing clothes, containing Triple Tea Antioxidant Complex, Vitamin E and Chamomile which gently remove make-up and even waterproof mascara.
These luxuriously quilted cloths with a unique diamond texture, pleasant smell and foaming bubbles allow for a deep clean without leaving any residue behind. They are pre-moistened so no water needed!
Conveniently packaged with 30 towelettes in each resealable pack, make these ideal for travel and perfect for removing make up pre-workout!
4) News – 6 Week Pre Holiday Session – a few spaces left

A little encouragement to live by in November:
Visualize your goals. Make a plan for achieving them and set yourself a deadline. Then, with supreme confidence, determination and disregard for obstacles and other people’s criticisms, carry out your plan!

Hi Eva,
Great little newsletter, thanks for tagging me on it! New Chapter is awesome, it has probiotics in it so more vitamins are absorbed. I used it for a long time. Now I am using Greens Plus Multi. Serious full coverage including Chlorophyll and aminos. Make sure you get the flavored one unless you like the taste of Green!
Thanks for being so inspiring. You are such a strong and powerful woman.
