How to Get a Good Start On Your Journey To Health and Wellness
·
Time to
start speaking well of yourself. -I have found when I spend part of my day
affirming all the positive things in my life, positive things about myself, and
positive things that I expect about my future, I begin to feel better. Stop
letting yourself feed into speaking negatively about ANYTHING. Change your words to reflect love, healing,
wellness and optimism. It is amazing how it will change you life for the better
and impact you journey to wellness in a positive way.

Dry Brush.
Buy a good stiff body brush and dry brush every few days. Start at your toes
and brush upward toward the heart with long sweeping movements. Dry brushing is
believed to get your lymphatic system going. I actually really enjoy dry
brushing. It makes me feel alive and my skin is always softer afterward.
·
Check
your levels - Have a full physical and have your Doctor check your Vitamin
D levels and your vitamin G level. It is important to make sure that you have
good levels of vitamin D especially D3. Vitamin D3 helps your immune system and
Vitamin D in general is a must for bone density health. Vitamin B and more specifically Vitamin B12
is very important in terms of reducing the impact that stress has on your body.
·
Get a Juicer
and Blender - I love my juicer and blender. Since I have started drinking
green smoothies and drinks I am much more energized and my overall strength has
increased. One of my favorites is to blend spinach, berries, almond milk, flaxseed,
and mild. It is an awesome way to start the day and really delicious!
·
Minimize
Your Meat and Dairy - There has been plenty of evidence of what meat and
dairy can do to your over all wellness. There are so many hormones and additives
in dairy product that it does impede you ability to approach total wellness. If you just
feel you need to have meat in your diet eat only the highest quality - organic,
grass-fed, and free range.
·
Surround
Yourself With Like Minds - It is so important
when making a lifestyle change and beginning that journey to wellness that you surround
yourself with like minds. I have bet so many people in the online community
that have been invaluable when it comes to support and inspiration as I began
my journey to wellness. People from all
over the world have encouraged me and provided me with wonderful resources to
aide my journey.
·
More Raw
Fruits and Vegetables - You can never have enough raw fruits and veggies in
your diet. They radiate with energy, and
when you go a few days eating raw, you will see what I am talking about! Raw
food is full of valuable enzymes we must have to approach total wellness
·
Spend
Quiet Time - Getting centered spiritually and getting more in tune with
your body is so important when beginning your journey to wellness. Your body is
truly in tune with your mind and spirit. If anything is off, then you area not
totally well. Spend quiet time in the beginning of your day or perhaps at the
end of your day in prayer, reading scripture, or meditating on an affirmation
or quote that will bring you peace and enlightenment.
·
Just Move
- It is obvious why movement is important to approaching wellness. But,
what I want to emphasize that any movement is better than none at all. If it
has been a long time since you have exercised, start out simple. Perhaps
walking up the stairs at work instead of taking the elevator, maybe walking as
part of your lunch break rather than sitting through the whole break, or
incorporating a brisk walk in the evening after dinner. The main goal is to
start moving. Your body will love it and it will move you that much more
quickly down the road to total wellness for your mind, body and spirit.
