Our Deepest Fear!

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.

It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous?

Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God.

Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.

We are born to make manifest the Glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone, and as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.

As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

What is Amalaki? What is Zrii? And is the Chopra Ctr really endorsing it?

What is Amalaki?
Amalaki or (Embica Officinalis) is a small green fruit that grows at the base of the Pristine Himalayan mountain range in northern India. Due to its numerous healing properties and its ability to nourish and balance the body, amalaki is often referred to as the “Great Rejuvenator” or “Fruit of Immortality”. Amalaki is also described as a potent anti-inflammatory, elixir for the skin and hair, digestive aid, and metabolic enhancer. There are hundreds of scientific studies over the last 50 years that substantiate amalaki’s role in improving many health issues.

In Ayurveda, (translated from Sanskrit to mean “Science of Life”) a 5000 year old medical practice from India, amalaki is described as the single most significant botanical for stimulating cellular rejuvenation, immune function and increased vitality.

What is Zrii?
Zrii is a densely nutritional and delicious liquid beverage that offers not only the benefits of amalaki but 6 additional supporting actives that help to ‘potentize’ the amalaki. These other ingredients are also widely recognized for their own healing properties. They include:

Turmeric (root) shown to improve digestion, circulation, and reduce inflammation.

Tulsi (leaf) also shown to improve digestion and intestinal health.

Schizandra (fruit) enhances mental function and memory

Jujube (fruit) serves as a mild rejuvenative, and calms the nerves

Haritaki (fruit) nourishes tissues and serves as a mild-detoxifier.

Ginger (root) improves absorption, digestion, and assimilation

It took over 60 formulations from a world class formulation team of award-winning Western medical doctors, world-renown Ayurvedic physicians and PhDs in chemistry and modern nutrition to not only develop a category creating product in Zrii, but one that also offers a wholly unique and exciting flavor that “enlivens the tongue”, a hallmark of Ayurveda’s use of food for healing.

Why is the Chopra Center’s endorsement so important?
The Chopra Center for Wellbeing is a world-renowned health and wellness center, known for its integration of the timeless wisdom of Ayurveda and the best of modern healing systems. In fact Zrii was created only after Bill Farley CEO met with the Chopra Center for Wellbeing, co-founded by Dr. Deepak Chopra and Dr. David Simon, in September 2006 and learned about Amalaki from them.

The Chopra Center for Wellbeing has been in operation for 15 years, and has never endorsed a third party product. That is until now! That endorsement now sits proudly on each bottle of Zrii!

The credibility that the Chopra Center’s endorsement brings to the product, the company and the opportunity is relatively unheard of in the network marketing industry. That is why Zrii is captivating network marketers, entrepreneurs, and the average person across the globe who wants to make a great income full time or part time from home.

Zrii is creating the perfect storm for success. The integrity and leadership of Bill Farley, branding (which looks like a 5 yr old company), the 1st ever endorsement by the Chopra Center for Wellbeing, a unique compensation plan that insures that everyone makes money and a product that tastes great and offers numerous health benefits!

If you’ve ever thought about joining a network marketing company, now is the time! And that company is Zrii!

The Chopra Center for Wellbeing!

Fulfilling a lifelong dream of creating a center which focuses on enhancing health and nourishing the human spirit, Deepak Chopra, M.D. and David Simon M.D. opened The Chopra Center for Wellbeing in 1996 in San Diego. Located in the midst of the world famous La Costa Resort & Spa, the Chopra Center is a nurturing and judgment‐free environment where visitors from around the world can find balance and healing.

Founded in the traditions of ancient wisdom, modern science, and daily well being, the Chopra Center is internationally recognized as the premier authority on integrating western medicine with complementary healing arts of the East.

Bringing together the talented professionals in the conventional, complementary, and alternative medicine fields, The Chopra Center has created an environment that embodies the essence of healing. Under Dr. Simon's direction, they provide medical consultations, therapeutic body treatments, workshops, meditation instruction, hospital program development, and corporate training courses. The emphasis at the Center is on providing guidance to help individuals promote their own longevity, human potential and success, while increasing personal balance, happiness, and fulfillment.

Zrii! What's in it!

Amalaki

Amalaki is the keystone of Zrii's formulation because it is the botanical for cellular rejuvenation. But we are not the first to see its benefits. For centuries, this small fruit, which grows in the fertile soil at the base of the Himalayas, has often been considered the most effective source for, among other things, promoting cellular rejuvenation, enhancing immune function, and increasing vitality.

More recently, many of these miraculous benefits have been explained, as scientists and nutritionists around the world have documented its properties and unique makeup. However, we still use only the purest, whole-food source of Amalaki found anywhere in the world, grown where it originated, fed by the cleanest air and water on the planet. Furthermore, the fruit is wildcrafted, a harvesting technique where the Amalaki is taken from trees as they are found in nature, hand-picked according to ancient techniques.



Ginger

For more than 2,500 years, Ginger has been used to treat ailments and please the pallet. Today the edible portion of the perennial plant is used worldwide in a variety of ways. In France they use it to flavor a liqueur and the United Kingdom produces a ginger flavored wine. In the Middle East, ginger powder is used as a spice for coffee and in the West, we use Ginger to satisfy our sweet tooth in gingerbread, ginger ale, ginger snaps—even ginger candy.

Generally Ginger is used to improve digestion, absorption and assimilation. In addition, Ginger has been used frequently for dyspepsia and colic, to ease pain from arthritis, has blood thinning and cholesterol lowering properties that can help treat heart disease, and can be an effective treatment for nausea. Gingerols have shown evidence of aiding the movement of the gastrointestinal tract and have antibacterial, sedative, antipyretic, and analgesic properties.

Turmeric

Native to tropical South Asia, Turmeric—often misspelled as Tumeric—thrives in temperatures between 20 and 30 degree Celsius with plenty of rain. After a process of boiling and then drying Turmeric in hot ovens, rhizomes are extracted from it, ground into a powder and used as a spice and dye. Curcumin, its active ingredient, has a peppery flavor and smells similar to mustard. Turmeric is used in many food products and can usually be found in curry powders.

Turmeric has demonstrated ability to compliment circulation and digestion. In India, it is used as an antiseptic to treat burns and cuts and Ayurvedic doctors value Turmeric for its fluoride. The United States National Institutes of Health is conducting four clinical trials to determine if curcumin is an effective treatment for pancreatic cancer, Alzheimer's and colorectal cancer. Curcumin has been used for thousands of years as a safe anti-inflammatory and may be an effective treatment for psoriasis. Finally, Turmeric has demonstrated some ability to help slow down the spread of some cancers.

Tulsi

Tulsi, also spelled Tulasi and referred to as Holy Basil, is an aromatic plant and, beyond its many culinary purposes, has particular spiritual relevance as well. Some Hindus consider a household incomplete without a Tulsi plant and still others provide structural spaces within the home especially for their Tulsi. In other spiritual practices, Tulsi is used to make necklaces.

Medicinally, Tulsi has been known to enhance digestion and intestinal health. The plant's extracts are also used in remedies for colds, headaches, stomach ailments, inflammation, heart disease, and malaria. Recent studies suggest that Tulsi may be effective as a painkiller and may help reduce glucose and cholesterol levels. It also has antioxidant properties.

Schizandra

Schizandra is a famous tonic historically consumed by Chinese royalty and by Daoist masters. Schizandra is renowned as a beauty tonic and is considered to be a youth preserving herb. It is also said to be a powerful tonic to the brain and is believed in China to improve memory. For the body, it is known to improve overall strength.

Schizandra may also help mental function and memory. It is used in many tonic formulations as an astringent, while in traditional Chinese medicine it is used to resist infections, increase skin health, and combat insomnia, coughing, and thirst. Modern Chinese research suggests that Schizandra has a protective effect and may help people with chronic illness.

Jujube

Jujube is a small tree or shrub with thorny braches, green, shiny leaves and edible fruit that, when mature, resembles a date (which led to the nickname Chinese Date). Jujube fruit has been cultivated for over 4,000 years and can grow in a wide range of temperatures—although hot summers are required to successfully produce fruit.

Jujube is known to calm nerves. By grounding the fruit to a powder, small amounts can be used to promptly reduce the effects of stress and purify the blood. In addition, the compound called Ziziphin found in Jujube leaves can suppress the sweet taste in humans and Jujube fruit helps sooth the throat.

Haritaki

All seven types of Haritaki fruit have their own unique look, flavor and benefits as well as anthraquinone-like (laxative) chemicals, tannins and astringents. Haritaki fruit is part of triphala, the three-fruit formula in Ayurveda. It is generally administered in triphala form rather than by itself to draw upon its tonic effects.

Haritaki has been shown to nourish tissues, particularly the heart, liver, and kidney. It is used to treat diseases of the eye (both internally and externally). In addition, Haritaki, by blocking the ability to utilize sugars, may help to eliminate bacteria and have cholesterol-lowering qualities.

What does it cost & how do I get started!

There are many options to join Zrii! Most of our team joined Zrii by purchasing the $255 pack. This pack includes 4/25oz bottles for our personal use, plus 30/3oz sample bottles to distribute and use as marketing tools. Others in our group joined by purchasing either the 4/25oz bottles ($120) or the 30/3oz sample bottles ($135).

Either way, along with purchasing a one time starter kit for $49.95, you are ready to get started. The only difference in these two options is the percentages you will receive over the course of the 90 day start up bonus.

You must have a personal sales volume of 240PV to qualify for the 40/30/20 percent fast start bonus. A 120PV qualifies you for the 30/20/10 fast start bonus. Since either the 4 pk or Frig packs equals 120PV you can mix and match to qualify for the 240PV and receive the higher fast start pay out.

The 255 pk is the only pack where you could sign up just 3 people (who purchased at this same level) and you would cover the cost of your product the first month. The $255 pk plus start up kit would totals $304.95. Since you would make a 40% start up bonus on your 3 you would receive a check for $306.00. The second month (at the 30% level) you would receive $229.50 (which almost pays for your product). The 3rd month you’d receive $153, which covers half of your cost! Plus, of course you’d still be signing up more people and on each of these new people this same scenario applies.

So what happens when the percentages decrease, say from 40 to 30 percent? It doesn’t go back to the company! Actually, what happens is 5% goes to your sponsor and the other 5% percent goes to their sponsor. The same thing happens when you go from 30% to 20% …5% goes up two more levels. You can see how this can benefit you as your business grows!

The Fast Start Bonus is paid weekly! When you sign someone up, you are quickly making income without delay!

Plus there are a total of 7 ways to earn income! Take a look here!

Why Zrii and Why Now!

Bill’s business acumen and interest has led him to closely study the nutrition business in recent years. He has observed a clear trend towards super foods and plants as a source of balanced nutrition, and an explosive trend towards beverages as a palatable and popular method of delivery.



Recently, Bill and the Chopra Center were discussing the great foods and herbs of the world. Bill asked if any super foods had yet to be truly discovered on a global scale. Was there a fruit with a compelling, unique nutritional story that could help millions of people improve their health? The Chopra Center began to describe the AMALAKI FRUIT to Bill.

Amalaki, known in India as amla, is the central fruit in ayurveda. It is widely regarded as one of the world’s most powerful rejuvenating foods, and has been revered above all other foods for over 5,000 years in traditional ayurvedic medicine. Its nutritive qualities are well chronicled in many ancient medical journals and hundreds of modern studies alike. Its benefits are heralded in countless testimonials by those who eat the fruit in India today. The Chopra Center taught Bill that amalaki is a powerful superfood, loaded with pythonutrients that are necessary to rejuvenate and restore vitality.

Bill engaged a world‐class formulation team of doctors and nutrition experts who created the product that is now taking the world by storm. Thanks to the wisdom of the Chopra Center and nutrition experts, and the vision and vast financial resources of Bill Farley, people in all cultures can now benefit from the amalaki fruit and a host of other nutritious companion fruits and herbs.
The world now has Zrii.

Founded by celebrity CEO Bill Farley, and wholeheartedly endorsed by the world famous Chopra Center, Zrii has become an overnight sensation.

Finally Everything You Need To Succeed!

Finally a Network Marketing Company with Everything you need to succeed!
A CEO that has had 9 prior successful businesses/The 1st ever third party endorsement by the Chopra Center for Wellbeing/A compensation plan that offers a very significant 90 day fast bonus that pays weekly/with the long-term residual portion of the plan paid monthly up to nine levels of dynamically compressed product sales

The Company is called Zrii!
Zrii was founded by Bill Farley, past CEO of 9 other successful brands. Brands like, BVD, Dingo, Dan Post Boots, Gitano, Acme, Luchesse, Farley Inc., and the billion dollar brand, Fruit of the Loom. He is also part owner of The Chicago White Sox’s.

Endorsed by the Chopra Center for Wellbeing:
For the first time the Chopra Center for Wellbeing founded by Dr. Deepak Chopra and Dr. David Simon has wholeheartedly endorsed a product. That product is Zrii! The Chopra Center endorsement sits proudly on every bottle and Dr. Deepak Chopra & Dr. David Simon are on Zrii’s promotional DVD.

The comp plan that pays new & seasoned networkers alike:
With Zrii’s generous 90 day fast start bonus paying weekly, no sponsoring requirements to advance up the ranks, a guaranteed 50% payout with no breakage and no hoops to jump through and 7 ways to earn income there is no wonder compensation experts are calling this plan the best in the industry.

There is nothing like it! A category creating product!
Zrii is not just a juice but an intricate formulation that took a team of western and eastern doctors and scientist over 90 formulations to create. Although the central ingredient is the Amalaki fruit (the most revered fruit in Ayurvedic Medicine) 6 other supporting actives were added that hold widely recognized healing properties of their own to ‘potentize’ the Amalaki. This allows Zrii to work on all "doshas" to balance and heal the body.

A unique flavor profile! It tastes great!
In Ayurveda, foods are classified into six tastes: Sweet, sour, salty, bitter, pungent, and astringent. Ayurvedic healers recommend that you include all of these six tastes at each main meal you eat. Each taste has a balancing ability. It is in including some of each of these tastes that we minimize cravings, balance the appetite and have ease of digestion. You will find all of these taste profiles in Zrii. Five are in Amalaki alone. You might think it impossible to utilize all of these components and still produce a tasty product, but quite the contrary. Zrii has a delicious taste! I was asked once to explain the taste, I likened it to the taste of raspberry or pressing ones lips to a red rose.

So What Does Zrii Mean Anyway?

Zrii is a powerful Sanskrit word that means “light, luster, splendor, beauty, good fortune, prosperity, and wealth”. Zrii also refers to a Hindu goddess of wealth and auspiciousness. According to the Charaka Samhita, widely considered one of the oldest and most sacred texts in all of ayurveda, amalaki and this Goddess are intertwined. Translated directly from the original Sanskrit in the Charaka Samhita, we read:

“One can live for as many thousands of years with youth regained, depending on how many amalaki fruits he takes through this process. By taking these fruits to the full of his capacity, he becomes brilliant, like the gods. Of their own accord, Sri (Zrii), the Goddess of auspiciousness, the vedas (knowledge) and vak (excellent speech) attend on him in their godly forms.”

Zrii. A unique name and a billion dollar brand in the making!

Amalaki! The Great Rejuvenator!

Central to this vast science is one unsuspecting, little green fruit, no bigger than a golf ball but containing a nutritional profile that places it in a class of its own. Amalaki (emblica officinalis) grows at the base of the pristine Himalayan mountain range in northern India. In its pantheon of thousands of fruits and herbs, Ayurveda describes amalaki as the single most important botanical for promoting cellular rejuvenation, immune function, and increased vitality.

Simply stated, amalaki has one of the richest and most documented legacies of any fruit known today. In fact, amalaki has been revered as the “Nurse”, the “Great Rejuvenator”, and the “Fruit of Immortality” for centuries, due to its numerous healing properties and its ability to nourish the body on all levels. This little fruit even has its own holiday in which families share a meal under the tree, while giving thanks for the strength and luster promoted by the fruit.

The science of “rejuvenation” refers to the ability of a fruit or herb to restore ones overall health, vitality, and radiance at a core level. As modern science begins to validate what ancients have known for centuries, amalaki has emerged as the world’s most rejuvenating superfoods.

Do You Want a Piece of This!

Zrii may be taking the world by storm, but there is plenty of room in the Zrii family for anyone with a desire to make a contribution to the world’s newest phenomenon. Could this be you? If you can answer “yes” to any of the following questions, that answer is yes!

Any yeses? If so, we need to meet!

Ancient Healing Art Becoming More Popular!

Dr. Mercola is a very respected doctor who has one of the most popular natural health websites on the internet. This article comes from his October 18th newsletter. Direct link to this article click here!

Ayurveda is an ancient holistic system of medicine and natural healing from India, and is the oldest known form of healthcare in the world.

We can find historical evidence of Ayurveda in the ancient books of wisdom known as the Vedas, written over 6,000 years ago, of which only a small portion is available to us from that time.¹

Tibetan medicine and traditional Chinese medicine both have their roots in Ayurveda. Early Greek medicine also embraced many concepts originally described in the classical Ayurvedic medical texts. Ayurveda has been used and practiced throughout the subcontinent, Indonesia and many other countries in the surrounding region for thousands of years, although it was often suppressed during various occupations in those areas.

Recently the western world, particularly Europe and the United States, has become increasingly fascinated with and interested in Ayurvedic medicine.

The Science of Life

The world Ayurveda roughly translates as “The Science of Life.” It is merger of two Sanskrit words: ‘Ayu’ (the root of ayur & ayus ) which means ‘life,’ and ‘Veda’ which means a combination of ‘science, knowledge and wisdom.’

According to Ayurveda, first noted by the ancient Ayurvedic scholar Charaka: human life is the combination of mind, body, senses and soul.

Ayurveda sees that the senses and the mind work in conjunction with one another and greatly influence our physiology.

Ayurveda is not just a medical system. It sees human beings as an integral part of nature. It believes that human beings should live in harmony with nature just as the animals and plants do, and utilize the laws of nature to create health and balance within. It adheres to this focus in guiding human beings to maintain health by using the inherent principles of nature to bring an individual back into equilibrium with his or her true self.

The ancient texts reveal that Ayurveda was also originally used as a regime to remove obstacles on one’s path to Self-Realization. At some point the medical aspects began to take priority over the spiritual forms of healing.

Today, these spiritual aspects of Ayurveda have taken a back seat to the medical focus. As Ayurveda becomes more commercially viable, the spiritual aspects may continue to lose ground. Yet there are a growing number of practitioners who employ these spiritual therapies and find better results than limiting their approach only to the medical, physical realm.

Understanding Ayurveda

Ayurvedic wisdom offers life-enhancing practices as well as herbal medicinal preparations for the health and well being of the whole human being: body, mind, and soul. It is much more than just a system to treat symptoms or physical illness.

Ayurveda describes three fundamental energies that govern our health and well being, and are seen both in our internal and external environments. Called ‘doshas’ these three energies are known as:

• Vata (Air/Wind)
• Pitta (Fire/Sun)
• Kapha (Earth & Water)

Ayurveda sees these primary forces in a unique combination in every individual, and as relating to the characteristics of our mind and body. Every individual has a unique proportion of these three forces that shapes our nature.

These doshas also have the characteristic of being: movement (Vata), transformation (Pitta) and structure (Kapha). We are all made up of unique proportions of Vata, Pitta and Kapha. The ratios of the doshas vary in each individual. Because of this, Ayurveda sees each person as a special mixture that accounts for our diversity.

Ayurveda gives us a model to look at each individual as a unique makeup of the three doshas (and sub-doshas), and thereby design treatment protocols that specifically address a person’s health challenges.

Herbs are often recommended to supplement the nutritional requirements on a regular basis to build and maintain a healthy physiology. As some of the Ayurvedic herbs are now recognized to be the most potent and powerful adaptogens on the planet -- and since stress is now known to be a significant factor in over 80 percent of all illnesses -- these herbs are essential in any health program designed to promote and maintain a healthy human body.

When any of the doshas become aggravated, thereby upsetting the natural harmony for the individual, Ayurveda suggests specific lifestyle and nutritional guidelines as well as specific medicinal herbs to assist the individual in reducing and rebalancing the dosha that has become excessive or out of balance.

Ayurveda goes into great detail to describe the medicinal attributes of many herbs and their correct usage to compliment and hasten the healing process, and to strengthen the body’s organs and systems.

Ayurvedic Herbs: Controversy Over Pharma Attempts at Patents²

Growing awareness in the west of the efficacy of Ayurvedic herbs and formulations has led to controversy and battles with the western pharmaceutical companies trying to patent these herbs.³

Only recently discovered in the west, Ayurvedic herbs such as Neem, Ashwagandha, Tulsi, Shatavari, Turmeric, Amalaki and Brahmi as well as traditional preparations such as Triphala and Trikatu have long been known to have significant medicinal value without adverse side effects.

Several pharmaceutical companies and academic institutions in the west have come into conflict with Indian academic institutions and traditional Ayurvedic practitioners over the intellectual property rights of herbal products researched by the western agencies.

The Ayurvedic practitioners have known about the efficacy of such products for centuries, and so contend that they carry precedence with regards to patent rights on such products.

Free Trade Industrial Agriculture Rules Threaten the World’s Farmers

Per the World Trade Organization Trade Related Intellectual Property Rights Agreement:⁴

“Indian farmers, traditional practitioners, and traders will lose their market share in local, national and global markets. For example, recently the U.S. government granted a patent for the anti-diabetic properties of karela, jamun, and brinjal to two non-resident Indians, Onkar S.Tomer and Kripanath Borah, and their colleague Peter Gloniski. Yet the use of these substances for control of diabetes is everyday knowledge and practice in India. Their medical use is documented in authoritative treatises such as Wealth of India, the Compendium of Indian Medicinal Plants and the Treatise on Indian Medicinal Plants.

If there were only one or two cases of such false claims to invention on the basis of biopiracy, they could be called an error. However, biopiracy is an epidemic.

Neem, haldi, pepper, harar, bahera, amla, mustard, basmati, ginger, castor, jaramla, amaltas and new karela and jamun have all been patented. The problem is not, as was made out to be in the case of turmeric, an error made by a patent clerk. The problem is deep and systemic. And it calls for a systemic change, not case-by-case challenges. The potential costs of biopiracy to the Third World poor are very high since two-thirds of the people in the South depend on free access to biodiversity for their livelihoods and needs. Seventy percent of seed in India is saved or shared farmers’ seed; 70 percent of healing is based on indigenous medicine using local plants.”

Obtaining Potent, Efficacious, Organic (Heavy-Metal Free) Ayurvedic Herbs

It has been mostly individual practitioners who procure, grow, dry and prepare these herbs and preparations in an effective, potent manner, whereas commercially available Ayurvedic products have been of substandard quality.

It is only recently that a few companies have started producing high quality organic Ayurvedic herbal products, most notably, ORGANIC INDIA Pvt. Ltd. Headquartered in Lucknow, UP. North India.

Ayurveda Moving West

Clinical practice, research and education in Ayurvedic medicine remain the most authentic in India. However, attempts are being made by westerners to export the essence of Ayurveda to complement their own medical systems, where the pharmaceutical industry and allopathic medicine predominates.

As a result of regulations in medical practice in Europe and America, the most commonly practiced Ayurvedic treatments in the west are massage, dietary counseling and herbal advice.

The NAMA (National Ayurvedic Medical Association-USA) is one of several groups seeking to set standards for Ayurveda in the west.

There are 26 schools in the US and dozens in Europe which are teaching 500+ hour courses for proficiency at Ayurvedic Health Practitioners, certified but not licensed.

In the United States, the NIH NCCAM expends some of its $123 million budget on Ayurvedic medicine research. In addition, the National Institute of Ayurvedic Medicine, established by Dr. Scott Gerson, is an example of a research institute that has carried out research into Ayurvedic practices.

Dr. Gerson has published part of his work on the antifungal activities of certain Ayurvedic plants in medical journals. Other notable researchers on ayurveda in the West include Dr. Bala Manyam, the Maharishi Ayurveda group in Fairfield, Iowa, and Dr. Mano Venkatraman at the University of Washington, Seattle.

Ayurveda is a Recognized Medicine

Ayurvedic practitioners are regularly appointed as an “Honorary Ayurvedic Physician” to the President of India. Every year on the occasion of Dhanvantari Jayanti, a prestigious Dhanvantari Award is conferred on a famous personality of medicine, including a doctor of Ayurveda.

Ayurveda is a statutory, recognized medical system of health care like other medical systems existing in India. Ayurvedic medicines have to be approved, registered and licensed by the Central Council of Indian Medicine (CCIM), which governs and recommends policies for the research and development of the system.

In India, practitioners in Ayurveda undergo five and a half years of training, including one year of internship in select Ayurveda medical schools, where they earn the professional doctorate degree of Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery.

The 9 Unbreakable Laws of Network Marketing!

The principle of MOMENTUM: A train's momentum is the force. Continuous momentum speeds up your progress. It's a force of nature, applied to physics, and to this business. Once you have it going, it's easy to keep it going. Without it, could lead to negativity setting into your business.

A steady flow of it flushes through the procrastination and discouragement and gets our business moving!

"There is only one disease... that's congestion; there is only one cure... that's circulation." The same is true for our businesses. A disease called lethargy and inertia is created when it stews down. The only cure is ACTION! Consistent action leads to momentum!

Contacting 3 prospects a day starts momentum. Meeting with them personally helps sustain momentum. Communicating through phone calls each day will advance momentum.

The law of NUMBERS: if you want to build bigger and quicker...Increase the number of contacts each month. Make yourself “visible"...in an effective way. You can't build big if no one knows what you have to offer. You have to run an ad or do direct mail and be highly effective at your advertising to increase numbers. This is a "people's" business... helping and supporting them to reach their goals and building "win-win” relationships.

Create an action plan to double or triple your number of contacts through advertising or through direct mail.

How can I make myself visible in an effective way?

The law of APPRECIATION: attitudes of appreciation and depreciation. When in the mindset of appreciation... your life is increasing in value. When in the other... your life is decreasing in value. It's the secret key to accomplishing every goal in life and in business. "The deepest craving in human life...is to be appreciated."

The law of CAUSE and EFFECT: for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Figure what works and what doesn't. Keep taking action. Keep applying this law and your chances of success will always increase.

Find out what the most successful people are doing and duplicate those highly credible and ethical actions. Apply, use, and teach to them to your organization. Take lots and lots and lots and lots of action.

The DUPLICATION mind set leveraging by teaching. When you get an idea that works, duplicate it downline. One great idea can be multiplied hundreds or even thousands of times in a downline. It's the force of leveraging an idea through duplication.

The dynamic law of SERVICE: the most important of all laws! Fill a need for the people in your marketplace. It's easy to forget... a recipe for failure. It costs 6 times more to find new customers than to service your present ones. You must be willing to do whatever it takes!

On a scale of 1-10 what is your willingness to help others? If it's low, you need to raise it by becoming more willing. Are you willing to: contact 3 people a day about your product line. Spend 1 hr. per day prospecting customers for distributors? Spend more time helping your downline succeed? Be of greater service to your customers?

The law of PLANNING and GOAL SETTING: 3% ever practice this seriously. Layout on paper clear concrete goals with a plan of action, and a date for accomplishing them.

What do you want to accomplish and when do you want to accomplish it? Keep the vision of your dream if you want to accomplish it. Review your goals daily. "If you're failing to plan, then you're planning to fail."

Single daily action plan...a set of actions taken consistently. (31 day plan) Your goals and plan of action may change.

The law of BELIEF: the common denominator behind all great accomplishments. To have extraordinary success... you need to have extraordinary belief! "Whether you believe you can, or whether you believe you can't, either way...you're right."

The law of FOLLOW-UP and FOLLOW-THROUGH: fortunes are in the follow-through. Endurance and persistence. If you ignore it you won't make it big in network marketing. Create the mentality to endure and learn to persist. These laws are really laws of universal success. Study them carefully, take action, and integrate them into your life and your business.

A Review of Zrii as a Home Based Business!

How to investigating a home based business!
When looking for a home based business it is important to investigate it thoroughly. Does the company have the leadership needed to help you succeed? What about the product? Is it something that offers value to those who purchase it? Is there a valid third party endorsement or other reason to believe that the product or service will hold the attention of the consumer long enough for them to take a serious look?

When I look for a home based business not only do I want to find a company that has the financial backing to deliver on its promises, but one that has a CEO & founder who leads with integrity. Mega-millionaire Bill Farley is known as a man of high moral principles, who has had multiple successful businesses to his credit. His mission is to make Zrii the next billion dollar brand. For this reason I knew I wanted to review this company.

Does the product or service deliver?
Of course there are many goods and services offered through in-home businesses model. However, more than any other time in history, folks are looking to the wellness industry for solutions for a healthy lifestyle. But if a product does not deliver, consumers won’t continue to purchase it. Not only does Zrii have a pleasing taste profile, (I likened it to the taste of raspberry or pressing ones lips to a red rose) but Amalaki, its main ingredient, is one of the most revered fruits used in the 5000 year old medical practice called Ayurveda.

Ayurveda, foods are classified into six tastes: Sweet, sour, salty, bitter, pungent, and astringent. Ayurvedic healers recommend that you include all of these six tastes at each main meal you eat. Each taste has a balancing ability. It is in including some of each of these tastes that we minimize cravings, balance the appetite and have ease of digestion. You will find all of these taste profiles in Zrii. Five are in Amalaki alone. This makes Zrii a unique category creating product.

What do others think of your product or service? Is there an endorsement?
A third party endorsement, although nice to have, often does not have a great deal of meaning. To be of value, the endorsement must come from an expert in the product or service who comes from a place of integrity or believability. If not, the endorsement means little to the consumer. Because the Chopra Center for Wellbeing was founded by experts in Ayrurvedic medicine, the endorsement clearly has meaning and value to the health conscious consumer. Giving the consumer a product of value often ensures repeat purchasing and retention, and which helps to grow a network marketing or home based business.

Does the compensation plan benefit everyone?
Compensation plans vary, but often because of their structure many plans are designed in such a way that much of the money goes back to the company, thus reducing the amount the business owner receives. This is not the case with Zrii’s plan. Zrii offers a guaranteed 50% payout. It also offers a generous 90 day fast start bonus paid weekly, no sponsoring requirements to advance up the ranks, and no hoops to jump through. Compensation experts are calling this plan the best in the industry and one that ensures retention because of the amount of money that business owners can make up front.

Do your own research, ask questions and find a company that is right for you!
