I Don't Make This Stuff Up.

I have a wonderful doctor that I've been going to for a loooong time and he once said to me "if it doesn't hurt and may help, let's do it."  That has always stuck with me so it is in that context I present to you.

The Ultimate Antioxidant - Grounding With Mother Earth baby! Can you dig it?

Recent research has shown that your immune system functions optimally when your body has an adequate supply of electrons, which are easily and naturally obtained by barefoot contact with the Earth. Electrons from the Earth have antioxidant effects that can protect your body from inflammation and its many well documented health consequences.

The Earth maintains a negative electrical potential on its surface (not to be confused with direct or alternating currents present in our homes and environment!) . When you walk, sit, or lay down on the earth's surface, the electrons are conducted to your body, bringing it to the same electrical potential as the earth.  Living in direct contact with the earth grounds your body, inducing favorable physiological and electrophysiological changes that promote optimum health.

So the Earth is a natural source of electrons which are essential for proper functioning of our immune systems, circulation, and may actually be the most effective, essential, least expensive and easiest to attain antioxidant.

Are you being served?

By yourself that is.  Change and transition can be difficult yet necessary for growth and the key that keeps us moving forward.  I believe it was Einstein who said "insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."  He was a pretty smart guy.

What makes change and transition difficult is the fact that we have to call on a drive within us to push through discomfort, letting go of familiar habits and strategies that no longer serve us. Many times these routines have been with us for so long that we feel lost or out of balance without them.

The good news is that human beings have an innate ability to adapt to change.  We only need to embrace that part of ourselves  and in the words of Nike "Just do it!"  Whatever it is, however inconvenient it is, just do it. Start with small changes and see how it feels.   Start eating breakfast, spend more time shopping for food and preparing your meals, make time to exercise, change your exercise routine. Start with asking the question, why am I still doing the same old routine when it no longer works for me?

And most importantly keep pushing through the discomfort and know that discomfort is usually a sign of the next big breakthrough. You can do it!
