Health, happiness, Happy new year to all of you. Why did I say this to you in this order? Stop, for a moment, think about these awesome things and thoughts.
Health-if you are not and do not possess the most awesome health that you can possibly have then happiness and a happy new year will not be very likely. Learn to include raw foods in your daily diets, include a raw vegetable or raw fruit at all meals. Now how can I do that? Start by juicing your raw vegetables and adding raw fruits and greens to them and storing them in a glass container for a quick pick-me-up and those awesome nutrients to heal, build and repair your cells. Another suggestion is to fix raw vegetables and raw fruits as a snack for our busy schedules, if you look they also have prepared ones in your local grocery stores.
Try this idea: Raw Apple Salad-
5 or 6 Golden Delicious apples (peeled and diced)
1/2 fresh pineapple (peeled, cored, and diced)
1/2 cup dates (pitted and chopped)
1 cup pecans (coarsely chopped)
1 teaspoon cinnamon (or to taste)
Mix all ingredients together, cover, and place in refrigerator for 30 minutes to allow flavors to blend. Mix again before serving. ENJOY!
Happiness is found within ourselves. Yes it is. Look and sit quietly and be grateful for all those things, family, health and the fresh air that you enjoy on a daily basis. Gratitude is the number one thing to keep us going. Mediate, take time every day for at least 15 minutes of quality time alone. Yes, it may mean getting up 15 minutes earlier, staying up after all is quiet at night or 15 minutes less time shopping, but it truly is worth it for you to stop and consider your thoughts. Keep them positive, do positive affirmations, Bible reading or whatever you choose and you will find that you are happier and healthier.
Happy new year will truly be that when you take care of your body, find time to do family activities, exercise a few minutes daily, even if it’s parking a few spaces further away from the restaurant, shopping center, church or running the stairs instead of taking an elevator.
Be healthy, Be happy and have a truly happy new year. Feel the energy of taking care of yourself. Feel the amazing energy of starting a new year. Be all that you can be. Be joy.
