You see and hear the birds. Your senses get drawn into your surroundings as you experience the richness of the air, sounds, smells and sights. Wherever you are – city, town or country – you can give your day the serene beginning you need. You might choose to walk or ride your bike instead of driving your car. You may choose to deflate at the end of your day by moving your body outside or sitting quietly in your backyard or on your porch. Lunchtime is a perfect time to get a quick workout in or bring your lunch and sit outside to catch some Vitamin D rays. While over exposure of the sun is not good for you, 20 minutes of sunlight each day is beneficial for your physical and mental well being. You can create your own ways of exercising in nature: gardening, hiking on a trail, quiet meditation and yoga outside or play an outdoor game with your family and friends. Take advantage of the sunlight before winter takes hold of North America where the days get shorter and the sun gets lower. Moving your body outside is more peaceful and natural while making few demands on the environment. So, get going! Enjoy the outdoors and burn calories while putting your body into action! You don't have to spend every waking moment in the gym to benefit. Here are a few to consider while enjoying your summer. *Hit the dirt. Working in your veggie garden or doing yard work is surprisingly great exercise. *Scrub-a-dub-dub. Ditch the car wash and do it yourself. You will soak up some vitamin D, get physical activity and you will have more energy. *Cut a rug. Invite some pals over, turn on some tunes, and have a dance party. *Put up the net. Outdoor games are fun and a great way to move your body while enjoying time with family and friends - like volleyball and badminton.  Prepare your mind, body and kitchen and live the quality of life that YOU deserve.
First off – let’s not use the word diet ever again. "Die”t has the word die in it. Diet consists of some sort of deprivation that could lead to many health issues. Diets are unrealistic. They usually consist of unnatural eating patterns that CAN NOT be sustained. I like to refer to what people call diet as daily healthy nutrition. In other words, it is not something that you are on or off - it is the good choices that you make daily in order to fuel your body and mind. And they can be sustained - sometimes we just need a little guidance. To start, remember that diet simply means daily intake, nothing more. Life is all about choices. Life is about living. You have the power in your mind and body to make the right nutritional choices. Learning the basics of nutrition will assist you in these choices. And along the way, you will learn to eat to live – not live to eat. We must purge our kitchen from all unhealthy foods. Foods that make you feel sluggish, foods that cause inflammation, foods that cause havoc on your living organs, foods that will shorten your life. But, what are those foods? What are you putting into your body? Some of these foods are: white flour, white sugar, high fructose corn syrup and hydrogenated oil. Also: Man-made foods. Foods with preservatives. Foods that you don’t even know what the ingredients are. Together we will take the necessary steps to clean up your gut, nourish your body with healthy/tasty food and implement exercise that is 'do'able for YOU. Secondly, we must learn to eat proper portion sizes evenly THROUGH-OUT the day. You wouldn’t let your gas tank go on empty or the levels in your car to go low. That would cause your car to not work properly. Same as your body – feed your body right in order for it to perform properly. Basically, by following the Q2 method – it will guide you to a daily healthy nutritional lifestyle. Q2 = Quality and Quantity Quality: If it roams on the land, if it swims in the sea, if it grows on the earth or if you can pick it off the tree. Choose lean protein, healthy fats and complex carbohydrates. Omit or choose less frequently fatty proteins, unhealthy fats and simplex carbohydrates. Quantity: Watch your serving sizes. Read the labels and educate yourself. Stick close to single serving sizes at meal or snack time. One Serving = Vegetables, grains, cereal and pasta = ½ cup 1 piece of fruit 1 egg or 3 egg whites Yogurt, cottage cheese = ½ cup Nuts and seeds fit into the palm of your hand Meat, fish, poultry is the size of your palm or size of a deck of cards Lastly, hydrate. *Make water your choice of drink. Water flushes out your internal organs, aids in weight loss and balances metabolism. *Drink at least half of your body weight. (re: 150# = 75 oz.) *Limit coffee to one cup. *Omit soft drinks. (Regular has a lot of sugar and diet has chemicals) *Hot unsweetened tea provide antioxidants, aid in fighting viral and bacteria infections and a natural cleanser. *Lemon is also a natural cleanser. Add a slice of lemon to your water. You can also squeeze it on your salad and other foods. *Limes help burn fat. Use them in your beverages and meals.
