Merry Christmas + Happy Eating Tips on Xmas Day

MERRY CHRISTMAS + happy eating tips! It’s that time of year again – when many of us freak out at the abundant supply of festive food that is often on our “forbidden/bad/diet says no” lists. http://susieandmedays.com/html/ Personally I don’t struggle with festive food like I used to in the throws of my Eating Disorder days. I simply know what I’m eating by preparing many foods myself with whole, natural and nutrient dense freshness. If I can’t really tell what’s in the food on the serving plates I don’t eat it. I always make sure that I continue to get up and

How to Create Life Balance and Fulfil Your Needs

WELLNESS TIP – Life Balance Life Balance is an interesting term many use when they suddenly become aware that they don’t have any! This usually comes about the more stressed, overwhelmed, exhausted and/or frustrated you increasingly feel. Creating life balance isn’t about controlling life – obligations, commitments, challenges and bumps in the road can easily disrupt your plans and unbalance your life every day! The trick is in recognising where your needs aren’t being met and attending to them as a daily act of self-love. The focus then becomes on YOU and not what happens to you. Here’s a list identified by

How to Create a Wellness Vision

How to Create a Wellness Vision

best rated online payday loans What is Your Wellness Vision? A wellness vision is a visualisation in your own mind of how you’d like your life to be. Visualisation is a powerful tool in opening up possibilities to the subconscious mind and saying: Here, this is what I want! Help me make it happen!

How to Let Go to be Happy, Healthy and Free

Are you afraid of change? Sometimes we hold on to unhealthy habits, memories or relationships for fear of loneliness, resentment and uncertainty. We remain stuck in limiting beliefs and self-sabotaging behaviours. Our happiness, health and feelings are severely compromised when we remain closed and negative to life’s possibilities. mjedwards.ca/dev/me/ In these moments of internal pain, we never ask ourselves these two important questions: Is what I’m holding onto what I really, truly want? Ideally what would I rather take hold of to feel happy, healthy and free? For many years I held onto words: hurtful, horrible, hateful words that people had said to me

Even so, she said that she “didn’t feel she was good enough, that she’s very hard on herself, although she knows she shouldn’t be – knows she shouldn’t do that.” Here’s how our conversation went: I asked if when she worked, was she doing the best work that she was capable of. She replied, “Yes, I try to do my best”. To clarify, I asked – “So even though you know you are doing the best job you can do in

When you look in the mirror, are you seeing yourself as you ARE or how you FEAR? To be a confident, self-assured and secure woman in today’s society, we’re challenged to escape the media bombardment we face at every turn: glossy magazine pages of digitally beautified models, reality TV shows with people looking anything but real, print media and radio marketing convincing you of the latest fad diet that you really need to try… Even on a good day one phrase, one word, one look can be all it takes to dent the hard won self-confidence of the woman in
