Ok, so I'll admit it, I'm a half glass full kind of gal. I'm an optimistic, upbeat and happy person. I tend to be a positive thinker the majority of the time. That said, I do feel when we get into the habit of thinking in a more positive light, we nurture our holistic, or "whole-istic" being. That is, our entire self of mind, body and spirit.
When working on any inner personal issue in life, things just seem to go much easier when working within a positive attitude. You may notice that there is an ease and flow to your efforts ; it seems as if things were meant to be. Therefore, so be it.
When working with the body for well being, It is best to work toward balance. For those of us with Metabolic Syndrome it is all about balancing out the hormone Insulin. Lifestyle adjustments such as the right diet, which is usually a low carb, low fat, low glycemic regime is essential. Exercise is also very important as well as taking your vitamins and drinking plenty of water.
With the mind, well-being starts with having a positive attitude and flipping that attitude around to the good when things may not be going so well. It helps to work on hormonal balance too because an imbalance can throw the mind off and that, in turn, throws emotions off. Meditation is a great way to calm and quiet the mind and reduce stress. A plan to get rid of stress is so helpful in balancing Insulin levels.
The Spiritual realm of well-being involves prayer, meditation, in order to connect with what you deeply believe in. Your faith can take your far!
In conclusion, when attempting to lose weight, improving your health and living a great life, consider a holistic approach to improving self, your whole self! Work with your body, mind and spirit to reach those positive goals you have decided to attain. You will find the path to wellness is easier and the results amazing! Lynn
