A NEW YEAR
Sometimes after all that shopping, eating, visiting, traveling, staying up late during the holidays, we need a bit of discipline to get things back to normal. We find ourselves not digesting quite as well, a bit sluggish and not sleeping quite as soundly. Let's slow down the pace. Your poor body had been working so hard to digest and process all this food, empty calories, sugar, gravy, wine etc. that it has become imbalanced and possibly constipated. Try a small cleanse. Getting back to your daily routine of eating your vegetables and fruits to add fibre will get things moving again.
Get your engines started and try some exercise. Exercise is one way of helping the colon function better and also one of the best sleep aids around. Does this mean you need to get up in the middle of the night and run around the block? Not at all. The point is that if you’ve taken a brisk walk or gotten some other kind of exercise during the day, you’ll sleep better and wake up more refreshed. When we are depressed we tend to want to stop moving. When we are anxious we tend to think and move unproductively. If you can’t sit still or can’t sleep, try some exercise, but not too close to bedtime, it will only rev up your engine. This may sound awfully simple, but sometimes it’s all we need… to get moving (not just the bowels but the whole body), to get moving. To read about Living in the Moment click here

EVERY MOMENT IS A GIFT
Yesterday has gone by; Tomorrow or Today is not promised. Every Moment of your life is the Gift. Living in the moment brings you a sense of respect or reverence for all of life’s blessings. Sometimes it is easy to take things for granted. On the way to work I often look at the birds, trees, and people walking on the sidewalk, rather than thinking what I will accomplish today. By doing this little exercise it helps me stay conscious rather than move unconsciously through the day and maybe through life. When you live in the moment, you don’t put off enjoying your life. How many people do you know don’t use special towels, dishes, clothes, – saving the good stuff for another day. Use your good stuff....NOW.... AND ENJOY IT.

AUTOINTOXICATION
Let Your Food Be Your Medicine and Your Medicine be Your Food. Autointoxication is the pollution of our bodies from within. Every cell both takes in nutrients and discharges wastes. If waste products are not eliminated, they accumulate and prevent cells from receiving the nourishment they need. The best diet in the world and the best food supplements cannot help cells that are polluted to death in their own waste matters. Toxicity causes cell malfunction and eventually disease. There are two important steps to every sound nutritional program: Detoxify and Rebuild The first and most important step in detoxifying is to STOP POLLUTING. Coffee, tea, tobacco smoke, drugs, artificial colorings, preservatives artificial flavorings, agricultural chemicals all contribute to toxic overload without providing any nourishment whatsoever. Alcohol, refined flours, refined sugars, soft drinks and adulterated fats also contribute to toxic overload. These are empty calorie foods that contribute no essential nutrients but require the body to work hard just to deal with them. Even healthy foods can create a toxic burden if we eat too much of them – more than our bodies can digest, absorb, assimilate and excrete. Foods to which a person is allergic or intolerant do even more toxicity, since the body cannot metabolize them properly. The first and most important step to detoxification is to stop putting toxins into the body. Consume only healthy food (preferably organic) and only in amounts that satisfy genuine hunger.
