Wake Up Call!!

Do you know what is in your morning cereal? How about the milk that you pour over your cereal? What is the lotion really doing that makes your fine lines disappear when you use it? Are you drinking water everyday or are you drinking watered down dosages of BPA & chemicals?

Is what you are doing everyday assisting you in establishing or maintaining a healthy body weight? If you are having troubles keeping your weight at a healthy level, have you considered what is really in the foods and drinks that you thought were "fairly healthy"?

It may seem scary and you may decide to not even look, but is YOUR LIFE important to YOU? You were born into your body to live a vital, healthy, and prospering life. You only have one body. Is taking care of your one and only body important to you?

Wake up and realize what it is that you are really eating, drinking, breathing, putting on your skin and then believing and listening to... Remember that you cannot believe every label, TV commercial, or advertisement. "Natural" does not necessarily mean it is good for you!

This is a time of easy access to free information, along with great data banks of scientific findings, and an ever increasing amount of knowledge regarding your endocrine system. You have no excuse to not go and find the information regarding the foods, drinks, and things you put into your environment.

The more and more I learn about how our endocrine system works, the more and more I value my CHOICE to put healthy, restoring and rebalancing foods into my system. Along with my choice of what to ingest, I strongly consider what it is that I want to put into my living environment.

Be empowered to "choice" rather than frustrated and depressed by what "damage" you may feel you have already done. Your body is alive and constantly renewing, replenishing, and rebalancing itself. Knowledge is a bouncing off place to great personal physical, mental, and spiritual health. With new found knowledge, embrace the vast variety of options and then find the ones that suit you best.

I also highly encourage you to check out Jillian Michaels' Master Your Metabolism. It is a great book that discusses how to remove anti-nutrients and toxins from your lifestyle, how to restore natural whole foods into your diet, and then rebalance your hormones by sleeping, dealing with stress, and exercising in ways that will manage them best.

You can find her book at http://www.jillianmichaels.com/ or on http://www.amazon.com/ or even at your local library.

Remember this is a learning experience for all of us! Don't forget to have FUN!!!!
