Today’s Motivation - The ABC’s of Health & Wellness – Y is for You and Your Food

The ABC’s of Health & Wellness – Y is for You and Your Food

You and Your Food, The Best Medicine is a long standing thought of the great Thomas Edison. He said, ““The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest her or his patients in the care of the human frame, in a proper diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease.” Only now are we awakened to the wisdom of that statement. Holistic health grows both in popularity and results. Although difficult to quantify under the guise of scientific proof, that antidotal product are unmistakenly a success.

Your food is the most important component to your health and well being. Eat as close as you can to fresh, raw and natural, read your labels carefully, drink plenty of water and increase your daily activity.

“Take care of your body. It's the only place you have to live.”

Arrive at the grave safely
In a well preserved body,
But rather to skid in sideways,
Totally used up and worn out, shouting '..man,what a ride!

Today’s Motivation - The ABC’s of Health & Wellness – W is for Water, Walking, Weight and Wellness

The ABC’s of Health & Wellness – W is for Water, Walking, Weight and Wellness

We are 70% water. Drink half your weight in ounces of purified water every day! Dehydration causes hunger and over eating, adult acne, diarrhea, high blood pressure and on and on. Drink your water Every Day!

Walking is the easiest and cheapest way to get in your daily activity. A good pair of walking shoes and a mile path will increase your heart rate and keep your lymphatic system activated. It’s low impact and most everyone can find a place to
walk. My father used to belong to a group of mall walkers, every day they’d hit the mall at open and never shop.

Weight is an obvious indicator of wellness and it’s no secret that Western countries and challenged by increasing weight. Balance your proteins, carbohydrates and fats for your individual metabolism. You’ll turn your body into a fat burning machine. Do a whole body nutritional cleanse at least once a month to help release fat cells.

Your wellness is a jewel of many facets. It takes a combination of disciplines to improve one’s wellness and maintain it. Just as ease is the absence of disease, wellness is the absence of illness. Choose wellness.

Today’s Motivation - The ABC’s of Health & Wellness – V is for Vegetables

The ABC’s of Health & Wellness – V is for Vegetables

Eat your veggies. Eat 2 to 4 servings a day. Eat fresh, raw and natural. Eat your veggies. Why?

Mother Nature is a pretty smart gal. She put everything we need into plants that we can eat. The topsoil eco-system breaks down inorganic minerals into organic minerals so a plant can up-take them. We eat them and get the minerals and vitamins needed.

Eat your veggies.

The ABC’s of Health & Wellness – U is for Unlimited Power

You are a human dynamo capable of extraordinary measures. Your heart has been beating since before you entered this world. Your muscles have answered your every command. Your brain operates behind the scenes automatically and at the same time allows you to interact successfully in a physical realm. Your hair grows, your eyes focus, your stomach digests, your liver and kidneys filter, your blood circulates, your skin protects and your body, well it is just a marvel.

Your unlimited power, though, is free. You possess unlimited power within confines of your body provided you care for it as you would any piece of expensive machinery.

Today’s Motivation - The ABC’s of Health & Wellness – S is for Silence

The ABC’s of Health & Wellness – S is for Silence

Billboards, newspapers, radio and television, even our cell phones blast messages and advertising at us 24/7.  The Internet is in our pocket. The din of modern living is always with us, the sounds of a city, airplanes overhead, horns and whistles. The hectic world relentlessly pounds our 5 senses building unacknowledged stress.

Make time for 15 minutes of peaceful silence in your life everyday. You will be amazed at the affects of silence on reducing stress and reviving your spirit. Your health and well-being depend on proper balance.

“We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.”
~Mother Teresa

Anybody out there a wee bit stressed these days? You can certainly feel stressed mentally, but whether you can feel it or not our bodies hold tension, stress and anxiety within.

Relaxation is the release of tension and a return to equilibrium. Relaxation is a feeling of calm in body and mind. It is important to note that it is a learned technique which can be used in stressful situations and everyday life to reduce tension and increase control.
Relaxation will help you to:

Relaxation has no side effects, feels good and costs nothing.

Tips to promote relaxation
·    set aside a regular time to relax each day.
·    choose a quiet place.
·    wear loose, comfortable clothing and lie or sit in a comfortable position.
·    try not to practice relaxation techniques in bed, unless you intend going to sleep.
·    other thoughts may enter your mind - accept these thoughts and bring your concentration back to your breathing - do not be concerned or distracted.

Revive and relax, everyone needs it.

Today’s Motivation - The ABC’s of Health & Wellness – N is for Nutritional Cleansing

The ABC’s of Health & Wellness – N is for Nutritional Cleansing

Cleansing is an ancient process to rid the body of unwanted impurities. Today cleansing is linked to only the big filters in the body, the colon, kidneys and liver. It is also associated with spending your weekends in the bathroom. Doesn’t have to be that way.

Nutritional cleansing and replenishing involves your entire body at the cellular level and frees you from the constraints of the toilet.

With the excess of deadly, man-made toxins in the environment, cleansing is a necessity and nutritional cleansing is the safest, easiest and most reliable way to purify. By flooding the body with the nutrition it so sorely lacks, your body functions effortlessly as the miracle machine it was intended to be.

Nutritional cleansing increases energy and stamina, causes permanent weight loss and allows for a sound nights sleep.

Rest, relaxation, good sleep are all essential to bodily rejuvenation. In our overly stressed lives taking time for yourself provides your physical being time to renew. Taking time for yourself gives the spirit time to revive, refresh and restore.

The ABC’s of Health & Wellness – I is for Illness Prevention

Illness and disease are the opposite of wellness. It is a harmful deviation from the normal function of an organism. No one wants to be sick, but it does happen. The best medicine for your body is densely nutritious food just as Mother Nature intended.

When you’re well, life is all about what your want.
When you’re ill, life is all about getting well.

Today’s Motivation - The ABC’s of Health & Wellness – E is for Energy

The ABC’s of Health & Wellness – E is for Energy

Food is fuel and it affects our energy levels. Food energy is the amount of energy obtained from food that is available through cellular respiration. When the food providing fuel reacts with oxygen in the cells of living things energy is released.

Foods don’t actually contain the energy. Each gram of food can be associated with a particular amount of energy that is released in the body.

Interesting fact: about twenty percent of our energy is used for brain metabolism

Environmental toxins adversely affect energy levels.

When your energy level is high you feel your best.
