Be proactive, not reactive. Do not sit helplessly waiting for bad news.
At a time when emotions run high, remember to remain calm. Above all, minimize your fears by maximizing your innate potential, and boost your own immune system.
The holistic community and its healthcare leadership is recommending the following protocols, and our team at Nadona International, supports this guidance, and offers you several products to aid in your defense and amplify lifestyle strategies.
Focus on healthy emotions: love, compassion, joy, empathy and listening/loving/caring of one another
Meditate and stress management to reduce inflammation in the body
Connect with nature
Eat healthy nutritious foods, free of pesticides and antibiotics
Temporarily put aside close hugs, kissing and shaking hands of acquittances, opt for a “fist bump”
Wash hands thoroughly and avoid the excessive touching of your face/mucous membranes
Carry anti-microbial products with you, and place sprays, gels, oils, wipes throughout your home and car
Your body is an amazing vehicle of divine perfection. It has its own spiritual DNA that is always working for you and within you; to breathe you, to beat your heart. Why not take these important steps and meet it halfway?
The Skrinjaric Estate burned down to the ground during the many sieges of 1995 that occurred in Pokupsko, Croatia. Miraculously, when all of the homestead’s numerous edifices, stables, barns and storage units were destroyed, the only building that remained fully intact was the main house, and the original home of my maternal great, great, great grandparents.
Their house was constructed from full sized oak planks, with small windows fitted over 150 years ago. This home survived centuries, including a long history of three major wars, and many tales of life secreted within its walls. Stories of my family’s joyous and darker moments were kept alive and brought to life through its inhabitants. Vila Dora is a gatekeeper of antiquity, a monument unto itself, standing proudly upon a hilltop, appearing beautiful in every season whether she is boasting flowers, vegetable gardens, fruit and walnut trees, or blanketed in a wintery snow!
In recent years, our latest resident, my Uncle, has taken it upon himself to secure the heart of this homestead. He has maintained its charm, but heightened it with modern necessities in all the bathrooms and kitchen. One of the stunning features that needs little enhancement, is the beautiful terrace overlooking the valley, and the rolling hills surrounding it. This is the favored place for all visitors, a space to celebrate life cycle events, or to just simply share the love of friends and family.
Vila Dora represents and captures the essence of country living at its best. For any guest who ventures in for a long while, or merely a few days to relax and soak it all in, rest assured you will be nurtured and nourished by the delicious authentic country cooking and generous spirit of her hosts Bozo and Nena.
I have had the amazing experience to meet the artist and gourmand, who created an exquisite and unique product, Golden Olive Oil. An infusion of 24K gold flakes floating in carefully selected high quality extra virgin olive oil, hand-filled, and packaged for royalty.
Each step in this process is strictly controlled to ensure perfection. All items used in assemblage are handmade by experienced Croatian craftsman, many whom continue to nurture their traditional family trades which stretches back to 1861.
The faceted bottle features a handmade gilded top, and is positioned inside a luxuriously crafted black lacquered wooden box with a piano polish. For safe keeping, it is protected by a small lock and enrobed in a velvet pouch. Yes, there is more… a mirror is affixed on the underside of the box lid, and can be engraved with a customized message, logo or crest. Not to worry, if any of the oil should roll down the side of the neck when pouring, just use the ultra soft serving glove provided for a better grip, and to keep one’s hands clean.
A final touch, inside each box is a booklet that tells the story of the Golden Olive Oil, the best way to enjoy it, and recipes for beautifully prepared meals. Yes, we all want to buy this, it is an artful conversation piece that is delicious as well. We thought of everything, if you can’t afford this version, or we run out due to its limited quantities, there are smaller sizes available; something for everyone!
If you are considering buying something for the person who has everything, to say “you are unique, like this gift”, or to spread some “really special” corporate cheer, please call us early, and place your orders by 8.31.2020.
At Nadona International, we want you to experience our Luxury Products Grown and Created with Intention. Enjoy!
The Dalmatian coast stretches for 3,600 glimmering miles in the most southern region of the Croatian Riviera. Its 1100 beautiful islands are replete with olive gardens and vineyards, each one distinctive, each one imparting its own scent and taste. At Mon Ami, you shall discover all of these offerings in one of the regions finest restaurants.
When you dine at a locale that is appealing to the eye, and inspires your taste buds, when you know what is being served is derived from authentic sources like the Adriatic Sea, a family olive orchard, a locally sourced vegetable garden or vineyard, then can you fully allow yourself to indulge in a unique experience.
This is Mon Ami, recognized by world renown Michelin, for its authenticity and superb cuisine. One of my favorite restaurants, where they have not only masterfully recreated the flavors of the sea, but also feature some of the most exclusive local specialties. Mon Ami has artfully merged flavor and presentation, elevating the senses of each guest, and with that, one of the many authentic tastes of Croatia.
This is a unique and unforgettable experience, sure to remain with you forever; on your pallet and in your heart!
