Top Ten Series: Improving Your Health Right Now

 

Would you like to improve your health? Better your life? Be who you

are suppose to be? We sometimes stray from these very simple facts

that can make our lives the most fulfilled. Consider these ideas:

 

 

1. Visit your Alternative healthcare practitioner at least once a

month.

 

 

Alternative health care practices are some of the most comprehensive

medical systems in the world today. Many of these methods look at the

entire individual on a functional systemic basis that integrates all

components of our mental, visceral and emotional bodies. See your

local practitioner for preventative and maintaining good health as

well.

 

2. Eat Nutritionally Sound Food.

 

 

A balanced diet with the appropriate amounts of protein,

carbohydrates, fats and water is essential for sustaining a well

fueled body which will allow you to do everything in your life to

it's greatest potential.

 

3. Exercise and Move Your Body.

 

 

Movement has been shown to ease depression, increase flexibility,

keep muscles toned and help us to gain better balance. Movement also

increases endorphins. The " happy " chemical in our brain that allows

us to think clearer, function optimally and feel great!

 

4. Get " good " sleep.

 

 

Everybody is different with the amount of sleep they need. The one

thing that is most important is not necessarily the quantity of sleep

but the quality we get. A sound night's sleep allows our entire body

to regenerate, replenish and rebound back into a day that is full of

life and energy.

 

5. Welcome the Power of Nature.

 

 

" Going back to our roots " can also mean becoming in touch again with

nature. The power of the sea, sun, trees and plants have an energy

they are willing to share with us. All we have to do is pay

attention!

 

6. Learn to Love!

 

 

Take the time to pay attention, appreciate and love the one you're

with. Be them friends, family or your partner, learn to love

unconditionally and without expectation.

 

7. Strengthen your Support.

 

 

Your family and your friends are the ones who are there for you when

you need them the most. Take the time to listen to them, share

stories, show appreciation for what they do for you and what they do

for people around them. Tell them. Let them know you. Learn to love

them for who they are, not what you want them to be.

 

8. Stay Spiritual.

 

 

Giving thanks to the Universe/Ultimate Power/Godhead is powerful.

Religion is a bridge to spirituality. You don't have to go to a

church or synagogue in order to be spiritual. Spirit is everywhere.

Spirit is energy and it is in all things. The best part is being

aware of it.

 

9. Keep Growing and Laughing

 

 

Keeping the brain stimulated is one of the best ways we can fight off

the signs of aging. Stay curious, creative and learn something new

about the world. It is essential to keep maintaining a playful spirit

and to keep the mind sharp! Find laughter throughout the day. See

things on the lighter side of life. I promise, it will bring great

joy.

 

10. Honor Who You Are.

 

 

You are the most powerful, successful and happiest. You deserve all

that you desire and should honor all that you are. Find the complete

and satisfied soul inside yourself. You are without a doubt, an

amazing person. Take time to honor that.
