Make Every Day A Sun Day - Winter 2022

Sunraysia can help you glow and make every day a Sun Day, but there's always more you can do. This winter, we've highlighted four things you can do to support your mental health specifically.

Find Ways To Relax

When trying to make every day a sun day, always look for ways to help yourself relax. Whether it’s a simple five-minute pause or a longer break, relaxation is one of the most important elements of a sun day. However, the most important thing that people often fail to remember is that relaxation can take a multitude of different forms. For some people, relaxation can be quite physically demanding (exercise is a prime example), while for others, relaxation can be very gentle (lying down is perfect). Some people love listening to loud music, while others shut the world off entirely. The point is that you need to find what works for you and give yourself that time to truly settle down and relax; your body will thank you for it. And remember, Sunraysia 100% natural juices are never out of place when taking a relaxation break.

Take A Break If You Need One

To make every day a sun day, you need to make time for yourself. No matter what is going on or the amount of work left to be done, you should always take a break if you need one. Mental health is just as important as physical health, and taking a break is never the wrong thing to do for either. Taking a break doesn’t need to be a particular long exercise either; for some people, a quick five-minute break from whatever they’re doing can be just what is needed, while for others, they need to take a longer break. The important thing is to know what your body needs. That’s the biggest part of making every day a sun day: knowing what works for you to give you exactly what you need. And of course, taking that break with a glass of refreshing Sunraysia 100% fruit juice doesn’t hurt.

Do Something Enjoyable

When you need to relax and take a break, making sure that you do something enjoyable is key. For some people, they need to schedule these breaks, allowing them to do the thing they enjoy the most (a nice hot bath in the middle of winter is pretty great). Planning some of your time away from duties can really help to set yourself up for success and to make every day a sun day. Whether it’s a relaxing bath, reading a great book, doing a little baking, or just taking time out for yourself, making sure that you enjoy the time spent is a sure-fire way to make every day a sun day, particularly when paired with Sunraysia 100% natural fruit juices.

Give Yourself Tech-Free Time

For us, there’s nothing better than disconnecting from computers and screens and having a bit of tech-free time. While no doubt there are some people that just want to set themselves up in front of their phone or TV and watch trashy reality shows, for most of us, the ability to disconnect from the outside world and get lost in a good book (or just lost in your bedsheets) is a critical aspect of relaxation and making every day a sun day. Even if it’s just the last hour before going to sleep, turn off the screen, the notifications and the internet and give yourself some quality you-time. With some Sunraysia 100% natural fruit juice as well, if you like.

Make Every Day A Sun Day - Autumn 2021

Of course, Sunraysia can help you glow and to make every day a Sun Day. But what else can you do to improve your health and well-being? Below are a series of tips that we feel can really make a difference to your life.

Social Exercise

It doesn’t need to be much, and it doesn’t need to be too serious, but getting out and exercising with other people really can help you glow! Whether it’s a simple walk up the street, a visit to the gym or just kicking the football around, exercising together is a fantastic way for everyone to feel great.

Self-Reflection

A big part of personal wellness is self-reflection. All too often, people don’t look inwards to the reality of how they are feeling. Some of the most important parts of self-reflection include rewarding yourself for good work, being kind but honest in your self-judgement and having realistic expectations; without this, people often end up in poorer situations and don’t glow!

Eating Healthy

Drinking Sunraysia fruit juice is a key part of your health and wellness routine, but it should always be coupled with a balanced diet, ensuring that your calorie intake is appropriate for your situation. Always drink plenty of water too, avoid toxins and artificial ingredients as much as possible.

Mental Fitness

Exercise and diet are both important to wellness, but mental fitness can be a make or break. You should always try to stimulate your brain through a variety of different activities, not just sitting and watching TV. Sudoku, board games, reading and conversation can all help to keep you sharp and glowing.

Work Smart, Not Hard

Especially with more of us working at home, small habits that we once took for granted in the office have fallen by the wayside. Take plenty of breaks from your desk and your computer screen and listen to your body for any signs of physical or mental fatigue to ensure you take breaks accordingly.

We’re Going Crazy Over These New All-Natural Fruit Juice Pouches

By Kate Myers

If you’re already feeling school lunchbox fatigue, find out why we’re loving these healthy and delicious fruit juice pouches…your kids will love them too!

School hasn’t even gone back yet but we can already feel the school lunchbox fatigue setting in. You know that moment where you are standing at the kitchen bench with absolutely no clue what to pack for the next day? Even though it feels like you have a million different options in the fridge?! We’ve all been there. Every mum wants to ensure their kids have a healthy and delicious lunch but not many of us have the time to whip up new creations on a daily basis. Especially if we’re not even sure they’ll eat them! If you’re already dreading the return of school lunches,  try our quick and easy suggestions to brighten up your kids’ lunchboxes – no effort required!

Mix It Up

Who said lunchboxes had to be boring? If you find your kids are bringing home the same snacks every day, chances are they are probably trying to tell you something! Fruit juice pouches can be a great way to bring variety to a lunchbox but many come in just a couple of standard flavours that are hard to get excited about. Thankfully, the NEW Sunraysia Pouch Juices come in an incredible range of innovative flavours, with six delicious combinations to choose from. Not only are they healthy, but your little ones will love opening their lunchbox each day to discover which one is inside!

Choose Natural

Fruit juice pouches are super convenient but we’ve always been a little bit wary about the potential for hidden nasties. While convenience is great, we want to make sure it doesn’t come at the expense of our children’s health. The NEW Sunraysia Pouches are 100% Natural, contain one serve of fruit per pouch, and have no added sugars or preservatives. We just love products that are not only delicious and easy, but healthy too! A great choice for the fussy eaters in your family who just won’t budge when it comes to fruit.

Perfect Fit

So many snacks have the potential to be great lunchbox additions, but unfortunately, their packaging lets them down. The NEW Sunraysia Pouch Juices have been revamped with lunchboxes in mind, able to fit easily into most compartments thanks to their flexible foil construction. Not only are they perfect for a healthy school snack in a hurry, but their portability means that they are ideal for beach trips, park playdates, and family road trips. Busy mums on the go will find themselves reaching for them too!

Enjoy Versatility

When choosing a lunchbox snack, we are always looking for options that are adaptable and can also be enjoyed on weekends and holidays year-round. The NEW Sunraysia Pouch Juices are fun, healthy, and versatile, suitable not only for school-aged children but from babies teething on the frozen bar to grandparents having an afternoon refreshment. They can be enjoyed cool or frozen for a summer lunchbox treat, and are also the perfect companion for after school activities such as sports training. Be sure you have enough for the whole team though!

With the return to school just around the corner, being prepared is the best way to take the stress out of planning lunchboxes. Stock your fridge with plenty of healthy options, choose a lunchbox that will keep your child’s food fresh, and have the NEW Sunraysia Pouch Juices chilled or frozen ready to add a little extra fun!

Try the NEW Sunraysia Pouch Juices from the 26th of January at your local Woolworths store.

These Healthy Fruit Juice Slushy Pouches Are The Coolest Drinks This Summer

By Kate Myers

We’ve found the perfect healthy slushy snack that will keep the whole family cool…no matter how you plan to spend your summer!

With summer well and truly underway, keeping your little ones cool has once again become a top priority. Whether it’s days at the beach, playdates with friends, or just a quiet afternoon at home, choosing healthy and refreshing snacks that your kids will enjoy can be a real challenge. It might be tempting to reach for the icy poles but what if you could get all the deliciousness of a frozen treat without any of the nasties? Thanks to the NEW Sunraysia Pouches you can!

Make A Slushy

The humble slushy has been a kid-approved summer drink for as long as we can remember, but the traditional varieties are so often loaded with sugar. Not to mention the flavours haven’t changed since we were kids! Thankfully, the six delicious flavour combinations of the NEW Sunraysia Pouches will take your slushy making to the next level. Think mouthwatering Apple & Mango, sweet Apple & Strawberry, and zingy Tropical just to name a few. To make your kids a healthy and refreshing drink at home, simply place a few of their favourite flavours in the freezer, wait until frozen, allow to melt slightly, break up into a slushy consistency, and watch them (and all their friends) come running!

Keep Lunchboxes Cool

With the new school year about to start, figuring out how to keep lunches fresh in the heat of a school bag is a dilemma mums face each and every summer. Is there anything worse than a warm ham sandwich? Or a runny yoghurt? Keeping lunches cool is not only important for taste but also for health. The NEW Sunraysia Pouches are a delicious lunchbox snack, but when frozen, they double as a super convenient ice brick that will keep lunches fresh and chilled. We also love that they come in a convenient and durable 200ml pouch that won’t split or break so you can avoid any messy food disasters.

Make Simple Swaps

If your kids just love a chilled treat in the evenings, making your own icy poles at home can be an easy way to ensure they are getting all the nutrients they need without spoiling any of the fun. The NEW Sunraysia Pouches contain one serve of fruit per pouch, have no added sugars or preservatives, and are 100% natural so you can be assured you are giving them the best. Simply choose a selection of pouches, empty the contents into an icy pole mould, freeze overnight, and you’ll have a summer dessert that everyone from toddlers to grandparents can enjoy.

Get Moving

Finding snacks that can keep up with a busy family schedule is so important. For long road trips, after school sports training, or warm beach days, you want to make sure you have healthy and delicious treats that will give your kids energy to enjoy each and every minute. It doesn’t hurt if they are also mum-friendly! The NEW Sunraysia Pouches are the perfect companion for whatever activity you have planned thanks to their portable packaging, range of flavours, and many serving options. We think it’s a great idea to always keep a frozen batch on hand ready to pop in the cooler bag and take with you. They keep the kids excited about snack time and are also an easy way to help fussy eaters get their daily fruit in!

Whatever way you choose to serve them, the NEW Sunraysia Pouches will quickly become a firm family favourite! We love that they can be eaten as they are, but especially enjoy the option to serve them as a slushy, particularly on hot summer afternoons. Your kids will love them too!

The New Sunraysia Pouches will be available from January 26th at your local Woolworths store.

Five Top Reasons You Should Drink Prune Juice

October 20, 2020

20 Comments

Pregnancy can change your body in ways you never imagined, but adding Sunraysia’s Prune Juice to your diet could make all the difference.

Pregnancy can be a wonderful time, but it can also change your body in ways you could never have imagined. Tiredness, low mood, and uncomfortable digestive changes all go with the territory. Thankfully, there are some simple ways to improve your overall wellbeing. Prune juice is a great addition to any diet, but particularly throughout pregnancy, and Sunraysia’s Prune Juice provides all the benefits without any sneaky nasties.

A favourite with the health-conscious among us, Sunraysia’s Prune Juice is a proactive way to improve your sense of wellbeing and feel great from the inside out!

Promotes Healthy Digestion

Constipation is unpleasant at the best of times, but for mums-to-be, it can be particularly challenging. Expectant mums need 25mg-35mg of fibre each day but this can be difficult when you can barely stomach a piece of dry toast! Sunraysia’s Prune Juice is a great source of fibre that will keep your digestive system moving, with prunes acting as a mild, natural laxative. It can also reduce the risk of developing haemorrhoids as a result of chronic constipation. We’re constantly told how important your gut is to your overall sense of wellbeing, so keeping regular is an absolute must!

Packed With Vitamins And Minerals

Sunraysia’s Prune Juice makes it easy to up your intake of important vitamins and minerals, particularly during and after pregnancy. The naturally occurring nutrients in the juice, including potassium, which is crucial for normal nervous system function, and iron, which keeps oxygen moving around your body, ensure you are reaching your daily intake requirements. Iron contributes to normal energy function and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, necessary for normal neurological development in the foetus, for the healthy development of your baby. There’s also plenty of essential nutrients and antioxidants packed into the juice as well which are essential for fighting infection and staying healthy.

Gives You An Energy Boost

We all feel sluggish from time to time, but pregnancy can add an extra level of fatigue to the mix. If you’re avoiding caffeine, reaching for sugary treats can seem like the only way to combat the tiredness, but this can leave you feeling worse. Prune juice is a great alternative if you’re looking for a source of energy as it doesn’t cause a sudden spike in sugar levels and makes for a longer-lasting boost that will keep you going throughout the day. Sunraysia’s Prune Juice is natural and nutritious so you can have the best of both worlds.

Keeps The Good Stuff In

Sunraysia’s Prune Juice comes in a 100% recyclable glass bottle which keeps the good stuff in and the bad stuff out! It is also available in a range of convenient sizes, with a 250mL bottle perfect for mums on-the-go, and a larger 1L bottle for the whole family to enjoy. We especially love that, unlike a lot of other brands, Sunraysia’s Prune Juice has no added sugar, preservatives, artificial colours or flavours. How good is that!?

Family Friendly

While there are so many potential benefits of prune juice during pregnancy, the benefits aren’t just limited to mums-to-be. You may even find that your partner could benefit from prune juice from time to time! It can also be useful for children over the age of one, with a small amount of Sunraysia Prune Juice an effective and natural way to relieve constipation in consultation with your family healthcare provider.

Whether you’re thinking about having a baby, currently pregnant, or a busy mum on-the-go, Sunraysia’s Prune Juice is a no brainer if you’re looking for an easy way to add a little extra spring to your step.

Sunraysia’s Prune Juice is available from Woolworths, Coles and a range of independent supermarkets.

Keeping healthy during your pregnancy can be nutritious and delicious with Sunraysia’s Pear and Cranberry Juice.

There’s no denying the health benefits of cranberries. They are full of antioxidants and loaded with essential vitamins and minerals to keep you healthy and strong. Oh, and did we mention that they taste amazing! It’s hard to believe that cranberries could get any better, but add the incredible benefits and flavour of Australian pears and you’ve got Sunraysia’s Pear and Cranberry Juice.

Reduces Inflammation

The thought of getting a UTI is enough to make you shiver at the best of times but can be a particular concern when you are pregnant. They can happen to the best of us, so it’s important to be proactive in attempting to prevent them. Cranberries are naturally anti-bacterial and reduce the risk of infection reaching the bladder and urinary tract. Sunraysia’s Pear and Cranberry Juice is loaded with antioxidants that may contribute to urinary tract health and reduce inflammation.

Loaded With Vitamins And Minerals

Sunraysia’s Pear and Cranberry Juice does so much more than just quench your thirst. It’s loaded with a range of essential vitamins and minerals to keep you healthy from the inside out, which is especially important during pregnancy. The juice is a great source of Vitamin C which contributes to normal immune system function and fights infection. Plus pears are a known source of Vitamin K which promotes strong bones. We like the sound of that!

Perfect Packaging

We love recyclable packaging and we will take any opportunity to buy a quality plastic-free product! Sunraysia’s Pear and Cranberry Juice is available in a 100% recyclable premium glass bottle that will keep the goodness in and the nasties out. The 1L size is ideal for sharing with all the family and the glass bottle will ensure the juice is always perfectly chilled and ready to go.

Delicious Taste

While traditional cranberry juice can sometimes have a tart, bitter taste, the unique blend of Sunraysia’s Pear and Cranberry Juice has created a juice that has a sweet and delicious flavour without the need for added sugar. Though the benefits for mums-to-be are a bonus, the whole family will love the addition of the Australian pear’s sweetness and texture with the hint of original cranberry. It’s sure to be a breakfast favourite in no time!

Promotes Wellness

Pregnancy can leave you feeling run down and sluggish, but a little extra boost of nutrition can make all the difference. Sunraysia’s Pear and Cranberry Juice is one simple way for mums-to-be to add a healthy drink to their routine that provides a lasting source of energy, without the sugar spike of sweet treats or soft drinks. The juice may also assist with managing your special nutritional needs while pregnant, particularly if you’re juggling the chaos of modern mum life!

We love it when we don’t have to compromise on taste when looking for a nutritious, healthy juice. With summer just around the corner, Sunraysia’s Pear and Cranberry Juice is the refreshing drink of choice for all mums before, during or after pregnancy. That’s if your kids don’t finish it first!
