July 28, 2021
1. Balance the nervous system: thoughts, stress, emotion, joy, gratefulness
2. Cut the processed, sugary, fake foods. Remove sugars, artificial sweeteners, heavily starchy foods, gluten and wheat (if you suspect they are causing issues for you)and the foods with a long list of ingredients that you cannot pronounce!
3. Chew your food. SLOW DOWN while eating. Think about the nutritional content of the foods you are ingesting regularly.
4. Hydration. Drink half your bodyweight in ounce of water each day.
5. Superfoods! Pre and probiotic foods such as garlic, onions, avocados, green leafy vegetables, tempeh, sauerkraut, miso and kimchi.
6. Sunshine! Try to get 15 minutes of sunshine daily.
7. Movement. Exercise, take a walk, stretch, incorporate more movement into your workday! We were built to MOVE.
