Are you tired of looking in the mirror and not liking what you see?Are you tired of too much weight, too little energy, and too many aches and pains?Are you tired of yet another weight loss program that gives too many promises and too little substance, once again proving that diets just don’t work?Are you long on frustration and short on hope?Are you ready to transform you, your body, your health and your life–forever?You, too, can transform your body to one which you are proud of. You too can lose that extra weight, recharge your energy battery, move better, and feel better than you have in years.You, too, can regain hope and feel good about yourself and your life–for the rest of your life.How do I know that? Because I am traveling on this very same journey with you. I was raised with the same foods that you were raised with. I love many of the same foods that you love. I have just learned along the way to retrain my thinking, my taste buds, and my priorities, and I pick and choose carefully what I put into my body.I constantly ask myself this question: Does this food serve me with health and life-giving nutrition or does this food compromise my health and, ultimately, my life–the quality and the length of it?Try asking yourself this question the next time you eat something: “Does this food nourish me or does it deplete me?”If you are confused and just don’t know, then take the time to read the books and listen to the tapes that will help you discover which foods provide the best nutrition for maximum, lifelong health and fitness.The bottom line for me is: I choose health and fitness. I choose life, not premature disability, disease, and early death.What do you choose for yourself? Premature disability, disease, and early death, or a long life filled with mobility, activity, energy, joy, and purpose?Most of us are very attached to our old ways of eating and living. And we like the foods that we eat.But I assure you, because I myself have experienced it, that if you follow the basic principles for the best nutrition for human health, you will gifted with great rewards far beyond what you can even imagine. Not only will your body transform closer to your ideal weight, fitness, and health, you will gain better mental clarity and emotional stability. You will be better connected in to who you are as a person and why you are on this planet.Eating the most life-supporting foods, fresh whole fruits and vegetables, is not just about the food; eating correctly opens our awareness and catalyzes the uncovering and the discovering of our inner cores and how we can impact the world around us.Although some may never suspect, there is amazing power in all that fruit and green-leafy vegetable salad that you choose to eat and the power is there for the taking.All you need to do is wash, open your mouth, bite down, and chew.
Women’s Travel Tips – Packing Light
When it comes to travelling these days, the less time you can spend in line at the airport, the better. Every time you fly, your goal is to get in and out as fast as possible, with as little hassle as possible. The key is to pack light. Here are some simple travel tips to make that happen.If at all possible, the best way to travel is just with a carry-on, so you don’t have to waste all that time wading through a sea of all that checked luggage rolling around on the conveyor belt. If you have to check luggage, you still want to keep it light, and keep it to one bag only.You may be scoffing right now, but it is all entirely possible. Here’s how you do it.1. Start with a great suitcase. Something durable. Something colorful. Something with wheels and a retractable handle. Something that has lots of organized compartments and front pouches for important things you may need to access.2. Know what you need to bring, and what you need to leave behind. Make a list. Pack your suitcase the week before your vacation, and then return to it the next day with a critical eye, and take out every single thing you absolutely don’t need. No “what-ifs” allowed.3. Stick to a color palette for your clothes. Start with a neutral color that you can mix and match with lots of things, such as beige or black or cream. Then, add in color in your accessories. The goal is to make sure every single thing you pack, goes with everything else.4. Be sensible with your shoes. They take up a lot of space, and it just doesn’t make sense to bring six different pairs for different outfits. Wear your comfortable walking shoes on the plane, pack your sandals and one (yes, I said one) nice pair of shoes for going out. Throw in folding slippers for the hotel, and flip-flops for the beach, and you’ll still have lots of room for everything else.5. Pack a few scarves or light shawls, and some funky necklaces and bracelets and you can turn any dress into three or four entirely different outfits.6. Invest in a good Toiletry Kit, so you’re not bringing giant bottles of product, but just the amount you need. This will also help you get that carry-on through security if you make sure your toiletry kit is compliant with flight regulations. Most of them even come with a hook, so you can hang it on the back of the bathroom door when you’re at your hotel.7. Don’t pack books, buy a Kindle reader and leave your stack of vacation paperbacks at home.8. Don’t forget you can buy things you may need when you arrive, such as toothpaste, shampoo or sunscreen. No need to bring it from home.9. Last, but not least, invest in one of those incredible little folding nylon suitcases that are wallet sized to start, but fold out into a full sized suitcase. While it’s important to pack sensibly at the beginning of your vacation, you will need room to pack all your souvenirs for the trip home.
