Okay...going out on a limb here...I'm thinking that perhaps this is the last of the snow and ice we'll be seeing for the late winter of 2014 (wishful thinking for sure!).
So, it's time to get ready for more pleasant weather. Let's check the usual list that we make when thinking of warmer days:
1. Lose some weight
2. Exercise more
3. Sleep better/more
4. Eat healthier
Guess what?
ALL of these things are easily attainable with just a few simple adjustments. To lose some weight, just call the relationship with white flour and white sugar over in your life--these are culprits behind so many health woes. To exercise more, take a walk, dance around the room to music on the radio, or learn some basic yoga stretches. Every little bit helps. To sleep better and/or more, turn off the TV a hour before you go to bed. Same goes for the computer. The backlighting on color TVs and computer screens interfere with our natural supply of melatonin. To eat healthier, ditto on the part about calling it quits with the white sugar and white flour. That's an incredible start. Then start shopping more of the perimeter of the grocery store and less of the aisles.
Baby steps in all these areas will make you a healthier person. Once you attain better health, you'll find yourself wanting to take further steps to feel even better. You can do it!
