Are you getting the
quality nutrition your body needs?
It's what provides us with energy every day. And when we don’t give our body the nutrition it needs, we feel it. It’s in the way we lack motivation. It’s in the way we get stuck in ruts, dragging ourselves to work, to lunch, back to work, and back home...
You don’t need to hire a nutritionist, though. You don’t need to live at the gym, either. In fact, all you really need is about 3 minutes a day… and Organifi will do the rest.
Morning, Noon, And Night… Organifi Superfoods Have Your Nutritional Needs Covered.
ORGANIFI GREEN JUICE
Start the day with a refreshing glass of 11 perfect detoxing
superfoods. Moringa, chlorella, ashwagandha, wheatgrass, coconut
water, and a whole lot more to get energy levels up, cortisol
levels down, and your day started off right.
ORGANIFI RED JUICE
Boost metabolism and energy with a delicious ruby-red fruit punch.
All the best berries and super-fruits for a youthful glow, and real

kick of power. Great for those afternoon slumps!

something sweet, nostalgic, and relaxing? Our Gold tea is made with
turmeric, ginger, lemon balm, reishi, and more. Calming… soothing…
for a great night’s sleep. Wake up feeling refreshed and ready to
go!

This is
your year of self-discovery, a journey to create a life filled with
grace, meaning, zest, peace, and joy. With warmth and wisdom from a
lifetime of spiritual seeking, inspirational force Agapi
Stassinopoulos guides you through fifty-two weeks of letting go of
what doesn’t work for you and finding what does. You’ll cultivate
the building blocks of self-care (meditation, health, making time
for yourself) and confront the common roadblocks we all face, like
pouring your energy into other people or living in denial. You’ll
explore your “conflict” areas, such as relationships, money,
self-esteem, anxiety, and your childhood. And you’ll learn to trust
your creativity, keep your heart open, and connect to the bigger
spirit that lives inside you.
Keep this book by your bedside. It is your loving companion. Be creative and have fun with it. Use it as a tool to unlock your goodness, and wake up to the joy of you!

Power Quotes From The Show
Moving From Unworthiness to Worthiness
Your Soul's Calling
"The reason why I have so much compassion now for anybody who says, 'I don't feel like I know my place in the world. I don't feel like I belong. I feel like a stranger in a strange land.' So, I tell them, 'My darling, let me tell you how that is the case for most of us. If you really think that people get up in the morning and feel like they belong in this world, there are very rare cases of that and God bless them if they feel that way. 99% of people walk around feeling amiss, feeling like they're not enough, and feeling the human condition. For me, my awareness was basically my soul had a calling to be here and to find itself without the man, the children, or a successful career. My soul had a calling to find it in the universality of its immense love and then my heart opened up." - Agapi Stassinopoulos
Exploring Our Divine Intelligence
"We have 37.2 trillion cells give or take that are giving us life in this moment. So, the fact that we all have Divine Intelligence and that we are more than our personalities, egos, or unique selves. When we go deep inside of ourselves in a meditative state, we can see that we are the ocean of love and mercy. We are the divine, the spirit, and the soul. And you do have a personality, a history, and your inner child but that all becomes part of your human experience. So, how you get to own that is to know that you are worthy of the love of the Divine that is your cells and the worthiness of that takes courage." - Agapi Stassinopoulos
