Week 9 #2020 Getting more Fruity

Image
Hi There I hope you are much more hydrated!  On your journey we are going to talk and think about a lot of concepts that doesn't get mentioned when we normally talk about health.Remember health is a state of being, thus everything in that "being". We are also multifaceted beings so we need to look at the whole picture. That being said, there are some fundamental things we need to do to become more healthy. Drinking more water was one of them and Sleep,which will be our focus this week, is the other.  We need sleep.... It is fundamental in our growth and being alive!!!!!  Because Sleep is such an IMPORTANT part and I believe in today's society we do not sleep enough. I am leaving you with a  TED Talk . I love this one, I've watched it like a lot and I learn each and every time! Please watch the Talk and let me know what you think. WEEK 8 of #2020 How did it go? Did you get in more water? Do you struggle to sleep? Is it hard to fall asleep, to shut down?  Ho

Week 9 #2020 Let's get Fruity

Hi There Let's get fruity. Yes, adding them to our diet!! Fruits are a great way to keep our blood sugar under control. Only one or many. Be creative on how you add them. This is something that I struggle with. I get bored. Yes, an Apple a day, keeps the doctor away! Buuuuut... It is boring. I get tired of them. Also I travel a lot throughout the day, so I want and need something (like an apple😒) that is easy to eat and can be done on the go...and quick. This makes it hard. I try to get in as much fruit as possible, but not enough. The other thing that gets in my way is when I buy them in bulk they do not stay fresh and I cannot eat them all in 2 days!! Some are expensive and I do not want to go shopping every second day!!   To combat this I have started to make fruit smoothies. They work. I still buy bulk but I freeze half of them for my smoothies and eat the rest as snacks through the day. By day 3 or 4 I make a fruit salad for a meal of for us as a dessert! I try to keep it

Week 7 #2020 H2O...

Hi There This week I want us to drink more water. Read again... Not force yourself to drink more water, just to drink more water. Follow this link to get a rough idea on how much water you should be taking in.P. S. it is just a rough estimate. Try to get to or just close to your results. If that sounds to hard how about starting with one cup a day and increase that by one cup a day for this week. Focus on the process of how you are going to reach this goal, not just to drink more water. This way we incorporate it into our lives, it becomes a "normal" for us. Remember we are changing how we see things.  This is how I do it. I really need to at least drink one cup a day. Also I love coffee...Which dehydrates the body ...Not Hydrate... So I motivate myself. For every 2 cups of water I get to enjoy a coffee guild free. I have realised that my drinking habits are just that,HABITS. Sometimes I am not in the mood for coffee but I work with a cup next to me. So I started to chan

Week 6 #2020 Identifying our Habits - Good or Bad

Image
Hi There Now that we are aware of how we focus. How we process the act of deciding what our focus is. Let us focus on our  habits. Not just the bad ones like we always do. No, we are going to identify good and bad habits. Make a list of these habits. Remember this is for you. NO ONE ELSE. I want you to choose ONE. And I am going to challenge you to focus on one GOOD habit. Just because we do not usually focus on our good habits. This week try to reinforce the good habit. Each week add another to focus on. Then start adding NEW GOOD habits.     This week.  WEEK 6 of #2020 Were you just focusing on your bad habits? Why? Are you going to accept my challenge and focus on a good one? Reinforce it? What was the ratio of good vs. bad habits?  Next week (Week 7 of #2020) we are going to talk about.... H2O.
