Child obesity is a major issue in today’s day in age. We have highly processed food, refined sugar in just about everything, and I really believe we can and should do more about it. Scary that this is the first time the younger generation is not expected to outlive their parents.

Scary that major dis-ease is now being found in children that not too long ago was only found in adults. When it comes down to it, the only place to look is at each one of us, each adult, each person individually that needs to take control of their health; not only their health but their children as well.

Show Notes:

* Setting an example with every action we take

* understanding yelling

* child obesity

* child diabetes

* life expectancy

* Silence is the same as siding with the majority

* adult dis-ease

* school lunches

* coca-cola truck

* Electronics and children

Links and Resources:

* Detoxify Yourself

* Vegan Detox

* Food like substances 

* Let them haters hate

* Boost your metabolism 

* A parenting yoga

* Toddler Health

Tonight on Exploring Mind and Body, I’m talking about Taking Control of Your Health. There will come a time in all of our lives when nothing else matters but our health. Unfortunately we spend much of our lives focused on ‘priorities’ that can become so insignificant in an instant.

I talk about prevention, food, exercise, nutrition and more than anything, my experience with understanding how precious life really is and how we should protect it with everything we have in every way we can.

Show Notes:

-I don’t always feel great

-so much emotional stress that wears you down

-affects your immune system

– thoughts and mind

– wrote this on my facebook page

-The incredible family we have

-flying in

-driving in

-too many people there

-Sad to see so many without any one

-Doris

– Diabetes

-our decisions create our destiny

Segment 1

I have to believe we’re in control of our own health

If not we’re powerless

We’re the victim

None of our choices matter

That’s the easy way out

Segment 2

-sometimes there are outside circumstances

– child illness

– do you exercise your heart and lungs on a regular basis

– do you put quality foods in your body that are healing

– do you fight dis-ease with every bite or are you contributing to it

-dis-ease is normal

-any time our body is not at ease we fight dis-ease

We put such a terrible connotation around disease of course we freak out and don’t give our bodies a chance to naturally heal

-we’re so scared we cram every medication we can find or are subscribed down our throats and hope for the best

Segment 3

-Our body was meant to be in strong, healthy, energized state

-we were meant to sleep well

-we were meant to slowly fall asleep as the sun down not with a screen in front of our face

– we were meant to slowly get up feeling rested, healed and rejuvenated

-not half away, jumping out of bed late to an alarm clock, blaring music or all the lights on in the house

– here’s what happens, we put ‘food like substances in our body’

-we’re filled with toxins

-we don’t sleep

-we’re stressed out

-meanwhile our body is in over drive trying to heal, fight dis-ease and work against just about everything we’re doing to it

Segment 4

-give your body a chance to heal with food

– it’s hard to believe how many people don’t eat

– we don’t eat breakfast

-we don’t put quality nutrients in our body

-we’re not able to lose weight because we don’t give our metabolism a chance to run

-because our body stores toxins

-and try sleeping on an empty stomach – eating late at night

 

Segment 5

Are you the one laughing in the corner

Are you turning your nose up at smoothies – family story

Are you the lunch room bully making fun of someone trying to make healthier choices

Heart attack, stroke, and other major dis-eases start many years before you’ll ever see them

-they’ve started right now in our loved ones

-the ones that choose not to make better choices

-the ones that choose to laugh at others

Segment 6

You have a chance to change, you can make better choices, you can heal your body before it’s too late

Our bodies are incredible beings, that can heal and rejuvenate, grow new cells and more.

Think about your loved ones, think about who will be sitting next to your bed, think about if you have someone that will never leave, not even after visiting hours are over, not even after not sleeping for days

Don’t be the victim of circumstance, take control of your health,

So many times in life we put ourselves last, we don’t believe we deserve to be better or live a better life, and more than anything we feel like we don’t have time for ourselves. This love yourself detox is to show you that you are worth it, that you deserve to be happy and healthy and that you do have time but more so, that you are able to make time for yourself.

This love detox is an absolute eye opener when it comes to the way you treat yourself. Truthfully we treat our one body, the only body we have like a waste dump. We walk around more stressed out that it’s hard for us to think straight, we snap at the littlest things because we’re worried about everything else; we rarely sleep because of stress, the toxins we put in our body and with what we surround ourselves with being noise and our environment.

It’s time take some time for yourself, it’s time to show yourself you can make time, you do have time and it’s time to help yourself understand you are worth it!

Testimonial

I have been making some small changes in my life and when I came across the Love Yourself Detox I thought it was a great opportunity for me to make myself a priority. The changes I made in the last 10 days were simple to do and some of the things I will continue to do. It was a great way to reconnect and center myself. This is a very gentle and easy process and I felt amazing when I was done. I highly recommend this detox, you deserve 10 days of self love!

Show Notes:

* You are worth it

* You do have time

* prepare everything first

* make yourself a priority

* why a 10 day love detox

* stop putting everyone else first

* we treat our bodies like we don’t even like ourselves

* we have one body

* we don’t know what’s like to be toxin free

* how will you team me to love myself

* daily exercises

Testimonial

It’s very easy for us to forget about ourselves. I’m an employee, a daughter, a sister, a friend, a babysitter…the list goes on. Sometimes I spend so much time focusing on the things I am to other people, I forget about myself. If this sounds familiar I encourage you to do the 10 Day Love Yourself Detox. It’s so easy and relaxing and affordable. The things required of the detox were things I already love to do, but rarely took the time for myself to do them. Take some time for yourself…love yourself.
