I want to feel better.

Here is a simple approach to begin feeling better.

The thing to remember is that there is no magic pill for good, improved or better health. First make the personal commitment to yourself to help yourself. Before you go to bed at night, tell yourself that "Tomorrow is a new day and I will make better choices to improve my health." Then when you get up in the morning, reaffirm your commitment to yourself. Many of us make commitments to everyone else, but not to ourselves. It's time to make that personal commitment to ourselves. This is just showing yourself some genuine caring, concern and love.

Will it be easy? It can be if you start your day with a positive mental attitude, faith and a belief that you can commit to your own personal health improvement plan. The key is to just get started. It's your body and your life. No one can do for you what you can do for yourself. If you work towards doing this for a minimum of 30 days, you will absolutely feel the difference, and have a few new good habits to build on. And above all, you'll be proud of yourself.

If you slip up along the way, don't be discouraged, pick your self up, dust yourself off and start again. We all slip up in the mist of temptation.

HERE'S THE PLAN . . .

Start your day quietly with prayer/meditation. This is your personal time to connect with a higher power.
Eat breakfast. This is your power meal of the day. It kick starts your metabolism.
Drink at least (8) eight 8 oz glasses of water a day. Start with 1-2 glasses before you leave home in the morning for work and build up to 8 glasses before you go to bed that night.
Take Cod Liver oil and Flax Oil daily as directed. This is good for your heart.
Take a good all inclusive multivitamin daily with your meals. Take your vitamins with water.
Take probiotics daily. Take them first thing in the morning with water.
Do some form of exercise every day. Take a walk in the park, or just around the block. Instead of driving for short errands, walk. Start with what you can tolerate. Just start moving. If you have a 45 minute lunch break, include a 15 minute walk after lunch.
Have no less than 1 bowel elimination daily. Eliminating shortly after each meal is optimal. If you have difficulty with regular eliminations try the Natures Sunshine Bowel Cleanser.
Monitor your blood pressure. Know what your blood pressure is. Some places like Walgreen's and Wal-Mart have self monitoring blood pressure machines in their stores. Check yourself at least once a month. Keep a record and inform your primary health care provider when you go for a check up. After a third consecutively elevated blood pressure readings, discuss your findings with your doctor. He/she will want to verify your findings and start an appropriate protocol medication to manage your blood pressure.
Monitor your blood glucose (sugar) level. When getting your routine physical, request a blood glucose test done.
Ask your doctor to perform a cholesterol and kidney function tests.
