Let’s all stay healthy and enjoy this wonderful season, here are some tips and tricks to help you with your goal. Today I will touch on each topic. Be sure to follow me for more blogs with details on how to implement each topic.
This time of year many people become ill, they even call it a season but really viruses are everywhere, we are in daily contact with them all year long. Your immune system is always working to keep you healthy and strong. Unfortunately it can become overworked and this can result in you being less than your best or even illness for you.
Several things can contribute to weakening your immune system: stress, overeating, undernutrition, lack of exercise and lack of sleep are just a few. It can be helpful to identify the cause so implementing the solution will become fun and easy. Take stock of your current routine and figure out where you need to start, as we are all on a unique journey.
Stress
Stress is a part of life and without it we would not have any motivation to do anything, it is when it is out of control that it takes a toll on our bodies. If we support our bodies, they will take care of us. The following topics can all contribute to unneeded stress.
Water
We need to stay properly hydrated for our body to function at its best, review your daily intake. Is it more coffee and energy drinks or is water the top of the list as it should be? One half of an ounce for every pound of body weight is a good goal. One hundred and eighty pounds? You want ninety ounces of water each day.
Overeating
There are so many opportunities to over eat this time of year, if your body does not have enough time to digest your intake, your system will become backed up and you will use energy to digest this excess food that should be boosting your immune system.
Choose to fast for twelve hours each day and reduce snacking throughout the day. Aim for three meals in a twelve hour period.
Undernutrition
Even if you make wise choices about what you consume, today's food often lacks the nutrition of years past. Pesticides and other chemicals have contributed to a lack of microbiome in our soil which creates a lower nutrition content in the food. Choose organic food whenever possible and high quality supplements may be needed to keep your body in top form.
Lack of exercise
Our bodies were created to move, movement keeps the muscles, ligaments and joints healthy and strong. Be honest with yourself about your activity level and increase it slowly, allowing your body to adapt to small changes .
Lack of quality sleep
Lying in bed for eight hours is not the same as a good night's sleep, our bodies do the majority of repair while we are sleeping, so you want this to be a priority for your wellness. What time do you go to bed, how many times do you wake up?
Your body is amazing and was designed to keep you healthy and strong. If you treat it well it will serve you well for many years. Be sure to follow me for helpful details on how to accomplish your wellness goals.
Today I am happily, living a life I previously only dreamt about....
There was a time in my life when I was depressed and despondent, I remember laying in bed begging God to help me. That prayer was answered through essential oils. I had a bottle of Joy oil that was recommended for depression and since I did not appreciate the aroma, I started using it on my feet where it was far enough away for me not to smell it. After about a week I was able to use it on my heart, which is the ideal place for this oil. Often when we do not like the aroma of a specific oil it is because our body really needs the constituents of that oil and our body rejects it because we are so lacking in them. This was definitely the case for me, as I continued to use the oil it lifted frequency and my emotions so that I was able to find good in other things in life and I continued to build upon that.
I started to focus on a couple of verses from the bible.
"No one can serve two masters, either you will hate the one and love the other or you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.
Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothes?"
I was raised to believe that this meant if you serve God you must lack money, but now let's look at these two verses through the eyes of the law of vibration, which was created by God, this law tells us that what we focus on we attract. When we worry and fret about not having enough we attract more lack. This is why the God of creation is telling us to focus on him and not on the things we need.
When we focus on the one who is Love, we raise our frequency. Love is the highest frequency and putting our attention on love raises ours and attracts more love and abundance. You cannot have abundance and lack at the same time, which one would you prefer?
Today I am happily living a life I previously only dreamt about and it is my desire to help others who are struggling. I wish you a day of all the blessings you desire.
