These days much is written and said about ways to maintain health, and there is a bewildering variety of products, diet, and exercise programs all claiming to be the key to vibrant good health. At our clinic, we have seen that maintaining and increasing health is actually simple, easy, and enjoyable. Our emphasis is always to support the instinctive healing energy of the body with natural methods.
Four easy steps to a healthier body:
1. Begin adding fresh, organically grown fruits and vegetables to your diet. Use cooking methods like steaming, baking, and broiling to preserve nutrients. Drink fresh juices, particularly in the morning. They are powerful in their ability to detoxify and nourish the organs and blood. Watermelon, apple, carrot and celery all make excellent juices for detoxification.
2. Begin a walking exercise program. Start slowly, 10 to 15 minutes per day, and try to walk in a place which is nurturing to you. As you walk, allow your mind to follow the movement and breathing of your body, and enjoy it! If you do other types of exercise, let your mind participate in the activity, following the movement and breathing as above. Movement which you body enjoys fully is much more beneficial then movement which is uncomfortable and straining. Whatever you do, make sure your whole body participates in every movement.
3. Spend more time with friends whose company makes you feel uplifted and positive. Allow yourself more quiet time, avoiding TV, newspapers and magazines for at least one day per week. Spend a day outside instead of on the Internet. Nurture yourself, and let your body get adequate rest and sleep.
4. Breema Bodywork! Getting regular Breema treatments is profoundly beneficial for the maintenance of health and the prevention of illness.
Breema nourishes and feeds the body’s vitality so that it is able to handle the stresses life brings without becoming ill. With cold and flu season upon us, this is the best time to begin!
