Here it comes… Christmas. The holidays.

I call it ‘the silly season’. And for good reason. This 2-3 period every year is a time filled with over-indulgence, over-spending and over-committing to parties and events.

What that means is that even more discipline is required in order for you to continue to reach your health goals.

Here are a 7 strategies to help you make it just a little bit easier this holiday season.

There’s really no question about it – we live in a toxic world.

The fact is, we are born into a toxic environment. Studies have confirmed that over 200 chemicals are found in the umbilical blood of a newborn infant and radiation spills even thousands of miles away affect the food supply close to home.

We could debate the details and severity of environmental pollution, the effects on human health and the best solution to detoxify our lives but the one piece that goes completely overlooked is the body’s ability to adapt.

You see, living things, including human beings, are amazing. The human body is a self healing, self organizing, self regulating system. The hallmark of all living organisms is their ability to adapt to their environment, survive and thrive.

It’s not as simple as toxin A causes problem B. There are thousands of people who have smoked for years and did not develop cancer. This doesn’t mean the chemicals associated were not toxic; it means that person was able to adapt to the level of toxicity introduced into their body.

What can we do instead of just focusing on removing toxins? 

What does every parent want for their child?

Good news… a handful of studies have given us some insight:

• To have a positive attitude
• To be responsible
• To be capable
• To be successful
• To have good friends
• To have manners
• To be a good person

Yet, as important as each of these are, there were 3 aspirations that stood out as the most important qualities every parent wanted for their children…

There is nothing more frustrating than when you wake up in the middle of the night for NO APPARENT REASON!

…and then your mind starts working overtime, and you can’t fall back asleep…

Sound familiar?
