There are many times when feelings of shame, guilt or inadequacy make us feel as if we are not enough. In some cases, this may stem from someone telling you that you are not enough, but oftentimes, we tell ourselves that we are not enough. Sometimes this drives unhealthy (soothing) behaviors, so be encouraged to address these harsh results of false beliefs.

In this moment, recognize that you are enough. Affirm this statement by reciting it aloud, being present, journaling, or partaking in a healthy action that resonates most with you.

Does the phrase "I Deserve Love" resonate with you? By virtue of being ourselves, being human, our creation & our creator, we are deserving of love.

As we continue to make our way through the New Year, I’d bet a few of your intentions have yet to manifest. Procrastination is often to blame.

These beliefs often drive behaviors relative to health. Such deeply held beliefs about who we are, how we are, what we are capable of & the nature of life itself influence the way we perceive & address health challenges.

Good health is built from a series of individual choices we make on a daily basis. As we age, good health is something we think about more often, treasure deeply. We invest in our health rather than take it for granted.

Our nation’s healthcare system is in crisis because it costs an exorbitant amount to keep a person with a chronic disease alive and healthy. The number of people with chronic diseases has increased because our lifestyle choices can push our bodies out of balance. So it comes down to this: How might we choose to live healthier lives?

We’ve known for a long time that what we eat effects our health. We’ve also known that what we eat can change our gut flora (bacteria). This study attempts to discern whether the food we eat is correlated to changes in our gut flora and to how our immune system works.

Think of rock strata and the image it presents. This inspires us to look within ourselves to uncover what's inside. The layers of various rock types reflect our lives, beliefs, health, meaning and purpose; thus, describing the makeup of our outward being.

The New Year and the Spring are prime ’detoxing’ times as folks try to reset their health. Often folks opt for the intense ‘quick’ fix. Beware: Not all detoxes are healthy.

This video explores belief, disbelief and the CHOICE that YOU have! I encourage you to adjust your mindset, remembering that: YOU have a CHOICE... sometimes you just have to find it.

How we view our world, our framework, our perceptions and our mindset have a great impact on our health and happiness. Shifting how we see these things, by means of metaphors, can allow us to behave differently and achieve health.

The concept of "Morphing The Mind" describes several components:

- Suspending Our Beliefs & Exploring New Beliefs

- Looking At Life Through Different Metaphors

- Using Tools For Health

- Working With Functional Medicine To Get To The Root Cause Of Why We May Be Stuck

This metaphor presents a direct comparison to the concept and beauty of functional medicine. It reflects growth from a perspective of facing challenges, experiencing lean years & rich years, growing in small increments over time and sometimes growing rapidly. ]

Sugar activates the same pleasure centers in your brain that hard drugs like morphine and heroin do, and you get a dopamine rush from consuming it. No wonder it’s so hard to give up!

We often think that our lives are controlled by our genes. In some sense they are. In a larger sense, our lives are controlled by the interaction between our genes and our environment. These interactions determine how our genes will manifest themselves.

Stress, depression, and anxiety have been shown to increase susceptibility to viral syndromes. Now we can add loneliness and isolation to that list.

This study surveyed the participants who had not been diagnosed with COVID at an initial time and at one year. Of those people who reported having contracted COVID within that year, the researchers found that individuals who had reported increased stress, isolation, loneliness, anxiety, or depression had a greater likelihood of having COVID symptoms after the infection lasting at least one month.
