A New Logo, from 99designs

December 17, 2015 By Angie 2 Comments

Real Food, Radiant Health, (R)evolutionary Lifestyle

Exciting news! Paleomantic has an inspired new logo, and I hope you love it as much as I do. The logo is an original and fun twist on the Paleolithic shield-and-sword, and captures the essence of the Paleo Diet and Lifestyle.

The ripe fruit represents the abundance of nature, and the spoon is full of the goodness and health which nature provides. The leaves are vibrant and bursting with vitality. The last curl on the vine is heart, connecting with the ‘romantic’ and joyful aspect of the blog’s name. With it’s pink/purple exterior and it’s golden yellow flesh, the fruit could be a passion-fruit, or a grape from the vineyards which surround us here in the Veneto.

The design is by Adhitya H.Putri, from 99designs.com. Adhitya’s design name is Aditto Chan – click on the links to see her portfolio. I feel  blessed that Adhitya found my brief and intuitively knew what I was asking for. Her design leapt out with it’s freshness and when we started collaborating, I felt that I’d found a design angel, flown down from heaven to help me.

Paleomantic. Real Food, Radiant Health, (R)evoutionary Lifestyle

I’d designed the old logo myself, last summer, but as Paleomantic started to take form and it’s light started to shine, I became frustrated with the look. I love the font, Paris, which I’d found and purchased from myfonts.com. I chose it because it conveyed the familiar feeling of the handwritten blackboard at your favorite cafè. I designed the logo with the Paleo niche in mind – the Paleolithic spear and shield are instantly recognisable and relevant. But I was finding that the all-caps of Paris were too static, and the logo itself, too masculine. It wasn’t representing myself, Paleomantic’s readers, or the energy of the blog. I went back to myfonts.com, and hunted and trialed until I found a complementary font. Mulberry provided movement, a sense of playfulness and femininity, and yet still had that lovely handwritten feel. And that’s where I stopped. I’d reached my limit. I needed the help of a professional.

Those of you outside of the Blogosphere may not know of Problogger. It’s a blog by the Australian entrepeneur, Darren Rouse, and he and his team provide advice for bloggers. I receive so much inspiration, motivation and knowledge from Problogger, and if Darren Rouse recommends something, then, as far as I’m concerned, it’s worth a shot. He’d raved about 99designs.com and so, following his advice, I headed over.

Oh! So much fun! 99designs is a network of designers from around the world. You write the brief for whatever design work you are needing  – a logo, a cd cover, a t-shirt, packaging, car-wraps, website design, full branding. Whatever you need, they have it covered.

You nominate how much you are willing to pay: bronze, silver, gold or platinum.

And then you launch your contest. Designers from around the world compete to win your prize. As the entries roll in, you give ratings from 1 to 5 stars, and communicate with the designers. They make tweaks and adjustments, until such time as you choose the finalists, and then finally the winner.


Paleomantic. Real Food, Radiant Health, (R)evolutionary Lifestyle

The whole process from go to woah was brilliant! I loved Adhitya’s design the moment I saw it, and over three or four days we played around with the details. I chose the winning design well before the contest was due to end.

If you run a contest, but you’re not satisfied with the design, you’re not charged. And if you have chosen to guarantee the prize, in order to attract more designers, and you’re still not satisfied, then the prize money is divided amongst the finalists. It’s a great system.

It’s also affordable. I reached out and researched some fabulous designers, but their services were beyond my budget. With 99designs, I was able to nominate my price, and this made my project achievable.

I found a great designer, who I hope to work with again. I have a gorgeous new logo, which is truly representative of my blog. I didn’t break the bank. I lived an international design experience from the comfort of my kitchen. And I totally, thoroughly enjoyed the whole process.

I’ve signed up for the 99design affiliate program, because I think it’s great – an innovative and exciting company that is helping designers around the world to get their work out there, as well as providing a fantastic, efficient service for those of us who need the touch of a professional.

If you or your friends have any design work that needs to be done, then I can fully recommend 99designs. Let them know that you’ve been recommended by me, and we’ll both receive a bonus! You receive a free $99 upgrade on your first design contest, and I’ll earn $50 for the referral. Nice, huh? Just click on this link or the ad box in the sidebar to take advantage of this win-win affiliation.


What do you think about the new look logo for Paleomantic? Do let me know! And if you have any questions about 99 designs, don’t hesitate to ask.

Best Wishes, Good Health

🔸Primal Health Coach
🔸 Steering Women away from Physical Meltdown and towards a Quality Life
🔸 Nutrition, Inflammation, Yoga & Meditation

F* Off Inflammation. Forever. Many of us will tell F* Off Inflammation. Forever. Many of us will tell you this: you’ve got to get to the point where you’re angry - with yourself, with your body, with the pain, with all the health professionals who can’t tell you what’s going on, with that long list of side effects that comes with your anti inflammatories & painkillers.

You get angry & you start researching & you discover all these people who have had the same issues & who - amazingly - have resolved them or contained them or reversed them through diet & lifestyle choices. That is, through eliminating inflammatory foods &  behaviors & substituting them with nutritious foods & healing practices.

Lo & behold, they say. It works... & it’s simple.

🙋🏻‍♀️If you’re fed up, pissed off, can’t deal with it any more - reach out, get in touch. If digestion, inflammation, chronic pain & anxiety are your issues, then I know where  you’re at. I’m a Primal Health Coach, the ancestral health model put me back on track, & helping women avoid unnecessary suffering & get their groove back makes me happy. Which is an understatement.

3 Seed Paleo Bread. Save this post - the recipe is 3 Seed Paleo Bread. Save this post - the recipe is up on the home page of my website at the moment. Later, find it under “Recipes”.

🥑🥚We love this for toast on the weekend, with a boiled egg and slices of avocado..
🍞When I bake a loaf, I slice it, wrap it and put it in the freezer.

💪 This is important. Because Paleo breads, pancakes, cakes, cookies & muffins should never be a substitute for your old way of eating. They should be an occasional treat. Most of your calories, most of the time, should be filled with nutrition & low carb. Paleo baked goods then become a delightful deviation - but not the norm.

Enjoy this recipe & when you bake it & make it, tag me! It’s what I used to make the croutons for the Caesar Salad a few posts back.

“I can’t keep going on like this.” I can’t “I can’t keep going on like this.” I can’t tell you how good it is for me to hear someone say this when they call me for health coaching. Because I know where they’re at: I’ve been there. And because I know that their situation is about to get a whole lot better.

Within a very short time they’re going to feel lighter - not just physically, but mentally, emotionally. They’re going to feel nurtured - not just because their body is going to receive deep nutrition, but also because they’re going to feel supported as they make significant changes. They’re going to feel energized as their metabolism shifts gear. They’re going to feel incredible as pain and issues that they’ve been living with for eons melt away.

When a woman calls me saying, “I’m not living. I’m ready to do what it takes”, I can’t wait to start.

If this is sounding like you - you’ve had enough & you’re ready to take the bill by the horns, get in touch. Let’s get coaching, let’s get your health back, quickly, naturally, forever.

I just made a Reel! First time, thus not a very go I just made a Reel! First time, thus not a very good one. Like everything: you’ve got to practice.

In my first year of healing (2014-15) I did a Reset 4 times. Food is complicated. It’s so obviously not so much about nutrition as it is about addiction, emotions, habits. About how we identify ourselves and how we define happiness, togetherness, family, ritual, reward.

Takes a long time to reprogram all that. But you keep practicing. It gets easier. And then at some point the new way of doing things becomes natural, normal, the new you.

For me, it’s worth it - to not be dependent on pharmaceuticals & painkillers. To not be paying health professionals of all kinds every week. To be managing my situation through food & lifestyle choices. To feel strong.

If you need help setting up a new Heath practice & sticking to it until you get there - get in touch. I was at the point where I said, “I’ve got nothing to lose.” If you’re at that point, I can tell you - nothing to lose, and a lot to gain. 🙋🏻‍♀️❤️

Caesar Salad! How good is it? Boiled egg, anchovie Caesar Salad! How good is it? Boiled egg, anchovies, shards of aged parmigiano, bacon cubes and croutons fried in the bacon fat. Perfectly, wonderfully balanced.

I made my 3-Seed Paleo loaf the day before so it was ready for the croutons. And we don’t have cos lettuce here so I used Belgium Endive. It was great. One of those dishes that when you make it, you think, why don’t I make this more often?

I adapted the recipe from Stephanie Alexander’s “The Cook’s Companion”.

This is how I made the dressing:

🥄 1 teaspoon salt
🥄 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
🥄 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
🥄 1 teaspoon lemon juice
🥄 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
🥄 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 egg

1. Mix all ingredients together in a screw top jar. Shake well and set aside.

Fabulous. Try it!

All dietary fats have received a lot of bad press All dietary fats have received a lot of bad press over the last 70 years... but they're making a comeback. The good ones, that is. The evil ones should be abolished for life. Do you know the different families?

	🍳	Saturated fats are an excellent source of fat, especially for cooking
	🥑	Monounsaturated fats are a great source of fat
	🥐	Polyunsaturated fats are difficult
	🍟	Trans fats, or “partially hydrogenated fats”, are poison...

🥑🥥 Healthy fats are super satisfying. They taste good and, together with complete, quality protein, they provide the feeling of satiety. With the right amount of fat in our meals we feel full for a long time, which means we’re less likely to go hunting for unhealthy snacks.

💎 If you want to read more about the fat families and what foods contain them, the post is up on the home page of my website now. Jump to my bio, click through & scroll down. Or, it’s here:
