Feeling a bit tired lately....

Ever wonder why you keep getting stomach aches? Why are you so sluggish lately? Why are you forgetting things? Why do you have no mental and physical strength?

Maybe you should check your diet. Maybe it's time to do inventory on the things you allow to enter your body. Our mind is affected by what we eat and drink. Our bodies need good nutrients in order to function. Your eating habits could be affecting the way you feel and think.

Try replacing one unhealthy food (meats, starch, sweets, etc.) with a healthy one (fruits, nuts, vegetables, whole grain, etc.) and see if you feel any difference in the way your body functions. If you like how your body is feeling try replacing two, then three. Try drinking more water and less sugar drinks and coffee. Trust me your body will thank you :)

Unclogg your stomach. Unclogg your brain :)



Self-Control.....

One of strongest temptations that human beings have to meet is upon the point of appetite. Don't let your appetite control you. You control your appetite.

Stay away from those foods and restaurants that may temp you to make unhealthy choices. Create cravings for healthier foods by visiting new restaurants that have a healthier menu option.

Create a shopping list when going to the store to avoid picking up items you don't need. Stay out of the isles in the food store that will temp you to pick up something that may not be the best choice for you.

Controling our appetite is important, but it can also be hard at first. Your mind is programed to choose the unhealthy items and now you must reprogram it to choose that which is healthy. Your taste buds have also been programed to like these items and they too must be reprogramed. They say it takes 21 days to form a new habit. So try making healthier choices for 21 days and see how much easier it will be when it's time to choose the healthier choice. Consider having a check in buddy that will help you whenyour having those cravings. 

It will be all worth it in the end. And trust me your body will thank you for it :)

Habits.....

Habits once formed are hard to overcome. Make smart choices. Healthy habits. One step at a time :)

Stimulants......

Spice food, cakes, pastries, rich gravies, highly seasoned food irritate the stomach causing cravings for stronger stimulants. Try eliminating or cutting down on one or more of the above for 10 days and then try it for 20 days. Your body will thank you for it :)

Strengthen your stomach.....

Food either weakens or strengthens the organs of the stomach. Why not strengthen it :)

Take care of your temple.......

The greatest cause of human suffering is ignorance on the subject of how to treat our own bodies.
