Health and Healing
We have been blessed with our miraculous bodies. We of course know the benefit of good nutrition, exercise, fresh air, sunshine, and water. But how about our minds, thoughts, and attitudes. Our we positive, expectant, hopeful, joyful, and grateful.
We need to replace the prevalent negativity in our society and world with the positive, hopeful world that we are truly blessed to live in on a daily basis. We need to remember that each day, each moment is a gift, a blessing that is to be cherished. The universe is a friendly omnipotent force when we are in harmony with that energy. When we respect Mother Earth and the universe beyond we can reap her blessings.
Turn the negative news off and replace it with a Mozart sonata, a Beethoven symphony, or Vivaldi concerto. What we feed our minds and hearts is more important than what we feed our bodies.
The violent shows, movies, sports, reality tv, negative news, video games need to be banished from our personal existence and replaced with uplifting experiences. A hike in the woods, a bike ride, a mountain trail, a swim, and physical activity that gets us moving and the blood flowing! All of these healthy alternatives that supercharge our health and well being.
We need to feed our bodies the good stuff and starve it of the bad stuff especially if our health is compromised.
Here is a good start:
- A wellness mindset and attitude. We must remember that with God all things are possible. Including our healing. Put your faith in this concept, Pray for health and well being. Expect and believe. And ask for God's help.
- No alcohol. Alcohol is a toxin and wreaks havoc on the body in excessive quantities.
- No fast food or junk food. Our bodies need good nutrition to get back in balance.
- Quiet. Meditation and prayer. Your mind and body need to get back in balance. Limit stress.
- Visualize and affirm your health and well being. Affirm I am healthy, I am strong, I am Love and so on. Every accomplishment begins with a thought and idea.
- Reconnect with Nature. Back to the sun, woods, mountains, and oceans. The wellspring of Life.
- Turn up the Faith. Turn down the fear. Our bodies have a wonderful ability to regenerate if we just allow it to happen. The Liver which is the body's cleansing organ has the ability to regrow even after being abused by alcohol. If we would just stop poisoning ourselves and self inflicting our health. Yes we can.
- The power of prayer. Ask for your healing, your recovery, your restoration, and ask your friends and love ones to join in the cause. With that power we can move mountains.
- We remain Grateful for all that shows up in our lives. Nature and our bodies tell us that we need to get back in balance. When balance is restored we are restored. Stay humble and grateful.
For those of you that are able and of course in consultation with your Dr.
FAST!
Fasting is the number one way to help your body renew, regenerate, and restore. The studies show how when we are in a fasting state and not laden down with our constant eating of empty calories and junk food, that the body will cleanse itself and begin releasing the wonderful hormones of testosterone, human growth hormone, and IGF. There are some fantastic YouTube videos documenting the benefits of Intermittent Fasting and I encourage you to investigate for yourself.
My experience has been that fasting for 16 hours and eating for 8 is a tremendous way to boost your health and well being and get back to your ideal body weight. We know that the U.S has become out of balance with our nutrition and we can reverse the obesity, heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and other self inflicted ailments like Alcoholism with better overall eating habits.
We don't need to give up all the wonderful foods we enjoy. But we do need to moderate.
Let us begin on the road to Wellness, to Abundance, to Vitality, to a long healthy life filled with joy, love and happiness.
To Your Health!
