Do You Need a New Face?

It’s Spring? Everything is renewing. How about you?
What is your plan to renew and revitalize? Are you looking for a new face? A new outlook? A new view on the world at large?

How about taking a few minutes right now to visualize what your new outlook could be?
What is the one thing that has been nagging at you?
Now imagine that the nagging item no longer exists.
How does that feel?
What can you do now? What is no longer in your way?


Feels amazing, doesn’t it?
Now go, start Spring, with your new face.

Looking for What's Next

We never seem to stop where we are to look around.  We are always looking for what’s next. And sometimes, what’s next may not be good for us.  So how about today, just once, we stop...and look at what we have and be grateful for where we are.  That we are here.  In one piece.   Living.  Breathing.  Here.

Get Rid of Cravings

Have you heard of EFT?  Emotional Freedom Therapy?
I have always been the type of person to allow myself to experience what comes my way and see if it works.  Guess what?  It did!
My friend Frances Soda practices EFT.  Her technique is holistic and energetic and certainly free-ing (if that is a word!).  I worked with Frances on my cravings for particular sweets....discovered the why's behind the cravings and cleared the energy blockages from my system with her help.  No more cravings!

Not only that, Frances taught me how to work on those cravings or other situations in the future.

This is Frances's next workshop - will you be open and attend??

Nutrition Journal

Working towards healthy eating habits is not an easy task with all of the fast-food, processed food and simple, quick cooking dinners that are on the market.  One of the best ways to understand what you are eating so that you can eliminate some of that unhealthy quick-grab food is to actually spend a few minutes each day writing down what you have eaten.

You will be amazed at what goes in your mouth.

Go one step further, and write down why you ate it:

• were you hungry?
• was it meal time?
• were you bored?
• were you trying to stay awake?
• were you thirsty and decided to eat instead?
• were you just driving by and had a 'craving'?

All 6 situations need to be understood by you, especially the last 4.  What you eat can be dictated by why you are eating.  Take some time to investigate for yourself and then take a few steps to give yourself some healthy alternatives.  Here are a few:

1. have unsalted nuts available for a quick snack
2. buy organic produce
3. wash and cut produce as soon as you return from the store so that it is ready to eat
4. eliminate junk food and salty snacks from your cupboards
5. eat a fruit instead of drinking fruit juice
6. have your drinks with ice - more refreshing and you can crunch the ice to satisfy both thirst and the feeling that you need to eat something
7. keep driving by and think of the money you will be saving instead of spending it on a craving
8. eat breakfast! everyday
9. drink green tea
10. eat cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cabbage, kale etc - their high fibre keeps you full longer

What I Learned About the B Vitamins

 

There are a list of B Vitamins, each with their own properties and influence on our system.  A complete set of B vitamins is called a 'Complex'.  You will find this at any grocery store with a pharmacy or any local pharmacy...even on-line.

All the B vitamins included in the Complex are:
Vitamin B1, Vitamin B2, Vitamin B3, Vitamin B5, Vitamin B6, Vitamin B9, Vitamin B12 and the vitamins Biotin, Choline and Inositol.


Here are a few things that the B Complex Vitamins can do for you:

1. Helps body produce energy:  B1 converts the carbohydrates we eat into glucose, the other B vitamins work to convert glucose in energy.
2. Regulates and stabilized nervous system:  B vitamins help with the correct functioning of the adrenal glands and the production of some hormones and nerve-regulating substances.
3. Helps with digestion:  B vitamins breakdown fats, proteins and carbohydrates
4. Helps maintain healthy skin and hair: B Vitamins work to promote cellular reproduction
