If you're not happy, here's why!

'Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anybody else expects of you'

-Our experience of reality has very little to do with reality itself and has everything to do with our interpretation of our circumstances through the controlling forces of your BELIEFS- in simple terms; the rules we have about what has to happen in order for us to feel good.

-The truth is that nothing has to happen in order for you to feel good. You can decide to feel good this very moment!

- As long as we structure our lives in a way where our happiness is dependent on something we cannot control, then we will experience pain.

-We can decide to enjoy your day no matter what happened. Decide that no matter what happens, we'll find a way to enjoy it

-If you adopted and consistently applied this rule to your own life, it would change virtually EVERYTHING you experience.
To adopt this rule is to raise your standards. It means you will hold yourself to a higher standard of enjoying yourself despite the conditions of the moment.
It means that you've committed to being intelligent enough, flexible enough, and creative enough to direct your focus and evaluations in a way that allows you to experience the true richness of life!

We all have days where we over-indulged, made poor choices or simply had fun throwing caution to the wind on a holiday/ festive season etc  Some may have more serious problems like eating disorders or binge eating or drinking.  The effects of poor dietary and lifestyle choices get to us.

Every moment is a moment to start anew, every meal is an chance to make a healthy choice !  Remember, don't ever put yourself down or feel guilty or entertain negative thoughts ! You are beautiful so let's all love ourselves and our bodies !!!  1. Mindset  Snap out of the depressive, lethargic mindset NOW! Yes, now! You CHOOSE your thoughts so start choosing good and positive thoughts. Instead of ' I feel so fat'  ' I have no self control'  'Why do I always overeat?'  To  ' it's ok, today's a new day and I'm gon

changing habits

Habits are a big deal because they inform everything we do, including the ways we define ourselves. Being healthy is not an accident , a stroke of luck or by magic. IT IS A HABIT . it is a habit that will shape our bodies that we were born with, a habit that will support the genetic makeup we got from our parents. So, if we want to give ourselves a fighting chance to survive and thrive despite our bad backs, asthma, eczema, dodgy knees, we must develop habits that keep our systems operating at maximum. Charles Duhigg, in his book, The Power of Habit, says: habits are the way our brains perform familiar activities unconsciously, so we can save energy for other tasks. when you consciously choose to do something repeatedly, it becomes a habit. Habits are so natural to our brain that we don't even realize when we've lost control of the conscious decision making part of the equation. So, if you want to change the way you fee, you want to become healthier, you must unpack you

Determine Your Dental Destiny

Dental health( and health in general) is determined by what we are willing to do for ourselves. It is our responsibility as individuals. Daily food and lifestyle choices we make have a direct effect on the health of our teeth. SUGAR - when people eat too many processed foods, especially sugar and flour products, they wreck havoc on the body. Insulin levels spike, cortisol levels increase and the flow of the parotid gland hormone changes, resulting in cavities. Eating too much processed sugar and flour products upset the entire hormone system, setting you up for tooth decay and gum disease and makes your entire body overly acidic- an environment which allows harmful bacteria and fungi to thrive. Eating too much sugar ( even in the form of hybridised fruit) causes the body to bring heavy minerals from the bones to the blood to buffer the hybrid sugar. Each one of us possesses the genetic potential to be healthy.  In order to restore this potential, we must return to obeying natur
