Eating for Better Health and Vitality

 

You are what you eat, as the saying goes. I have been reading up a lot on nutrition. I've always been interested in healthy living. I was a personal trainer and fitness instructor for over ten years, and I knew nutrition was an important piece of physical fitness.  My concern has lately been around hormones and specifically how they are related to perimenopause and menopause. And I've seemed to open up a proverbial can of worms. I have decided to make this week's topic on my blogs and podcasts and videos on healthy eating and its relation to EVERYTHING!! The way we look and our skin, body composition, and how we feel in our vitality, energy, and even psychological areas such as anxiety or depression, are all directly related to what we eat. I've been following David Avocado Wolf for the past year or so but just recently has really intrigued me, and I've dived deep into learning more about his teachings on nutrition. I've also decided to make a lifestyle change and make my diet consist of predominantly plant-based foods. I've also decided to cut out the commercial wheat, sugar, and other harmful chemicals. This will include what I put into my body and what I put on my body. I've been using aluminum-free deodorants for a while now but have decided to go makeup-free as well. Now I know there are some natural makeups out there, but I really don't have the time or money to invest in that right now. My focus is going to be on eating healthier. So in the meantime, I will not be applying the chemicals that I have now in my makeup, lol. And when I feel comfortable with my diet, then I can do some research on the makeup.

So I'm hoping that you will follow along with me this week on my journey and some information that I can share with you guys in what I'm learning and my experience with my new lifestyle. I would explain to you all the benefits of plant-based and all that goes with it, but I don't feel I have enough information to teach others just yet. If you are interested, I highly recommend you looking up David Avocado Wolf. He has books, online courses, products, etc. He has over 20 years of experience, a Master's degree in nutrition, and passionate about what he teaches.

Wasting Time With Micro Timewasters

I t's   funny how we  notice when we waste time on a large scale. We notice that we spend an hour on social media or watch TV for three hours. However, these aren’t the only ways we waste time. We waste time in dozens of ways each day. Many of these time wasters aren’t always obvious, but the time can really add up over the course of a day, a week, or a decade. Your time is your most valuable commodity. Think about it, you can always make more money, but you can never make more time. We all have the same 24 hours a day.

What could you do that really matters to you? Guard your time from the micro timewasters with these strategies: 1. Always have a phone charger with you. How many times a week do you need a phone charger and have to go into the other room to fetch it? Have multiple chargers and keep th...
