As we approach 2012, I would like to dedicate this Newsletter to all the women that have followed my Newsletters and tried hard to make changes that will affect their health and well being for years to come.
We have written that understanding the issues that cause sickness are in most instances, ours to control. Keeping our stress levels manageable, respecting the issues of inflammation and ph that become the root causes of disease are the keys to maintaining your health. Allowing ourselves to get in touch with our inner self and listen to the voices that give us warning signs of being out of balance. Remember if we don’t listen to the small voices, the scream is not far behind and that leads to disease.
#1 Before we make ridiculous New Year’s Resolutions, let’s keep focus on making yourself #1, on your long list of things to do. If that is the ONE New Year’s Resolution that you make, your entire circle of family, friends will prosper.
#2 Learn the word NO! In my experience, women like to please everyone and saying NO is out of character. If we all learn this one wonderful word, our stress level will come down tremendously and we will not be over committed.
#3 Value food, let food be your medicine. Read labels, skip processed foods, white sugar, and white flour, limit caffeine and revisit gluten sensitivities. Keep your blood sugar balanced and watch the quantity of food you consume. Get your weight stable and help prevent metabolic syndrome. Keep your life in balance!
#4 In two thousand and twelve (2012), partner with an Integrative Women’s Health Provider to create a healthy lifestyle, balance your hormones, take a look at your thyroid, create a nutrition program that works for you, rid your body of toxins both physically and emotionally.
#5 Forget the “gym” resolution. We know they fail after the first 2-3 months with endless waste of dollars and frustration. Instead work with a trainer to help motivate and keep your physical conditioning and weight program interesting and inspiring.
#6 Keep life in balance, learn to meditate, five minutes of meditation will lower your cortisol levels, create rest and allow stressors to melt away.
#7 Change the stories you tell yourself every minute of every day. Misery begets misery and happiness begets happiness, choose happiness at any price.
Here is to the Best Year Ever for You and your Families!
To Your Continued Good Health!
