Nutrition: The foods we eat are what determine the
ultimate strength and health of our body's cells, and those cells are what make up
our body. The more fresh, raw (live), foods that we put into our body, the healthier
the cells and so the healthier our body. Those cells make up all tissues, which
compose the organs as well as making up the immune system, lymphatic system, blood,
bones, nerves, and every other body component. If we put the wrong kind of
substances into our bodies, it will eventually cause the cells to degenerate, which
will lead to an overall degeneration of our total health - which ultimately means
disease and death.
Exercise: Exercise is vital for our
bodies to get adequate oxygenation to the cells, as well as helping to provide a way
of getting toxins out of the cells. It assists the immune system, by assisting the
lymphatic system to move the lymphatic fluid around the body. Exercise also
strengthens the muscles to enable us to more readily perform daily
functions.
Water: Without water, our bodies would not be
able to function. There is more and more a link between dehydration and the many
aches, pains and diseases with which we suffer. Ex: ulcers, arthritis, headaches,
asthma, allergies and many others.
Sunlight: Sunlight
assists the body in converting Vitamin D. It also brightens our day and improves our
mental health.
Detoxification: As you eliminate the bad
things and replace them with good things, your body will begin to cleanse itself of
all manner of toxic substances. It is important to assist the body in this
cleansing. We believe that by helping the body with skin brushing, colonics, detox
foot spa, far infrared sauna, and other natural detoxification means, your body may
begin to show rejuvenating signs even quicker!
Fresh Air:
The body can live for many days without food, very few days without water, but only
about 4 minutes without oxygen. Fresh, unpolluted air is what we need everyday. This
will insure our body having access to the oxygen necessary in sufficient amounts to
nourish our cells. If we could exercise each day outside in the fresh air and
sunshine it would be to our great benefit.
Rest: So many
of us are sleep deprived. Adequate rest is necessary for the body to reach its
optimal health. The body does its best healing while it is asleep. The body can then
concentrate on healing without having to expend the energy on keeping you awake! The
best rest is before midnight, 9 or 9:30 is the best time to retire for the
night.
Trust in God: Without trust in God, we are lost.
It makes no difference what our health is, we have no future and no hope. Spending
time everyday with God, will build our relationship with Him, and we will build that
trust, and will have hope for the future and the present regardless of the
circumstances we face.
Attitude of Gratitude: Be thankful
in all things. No matter how bad you may think you have it, there are others who are
worse off than you. Sit down and write out at least 10 things to be thankful for
each day, and you will see your anxiety and depression go right out the
door.
Benevolent Spirit: Give willingly to someone who
can never hope to return the gift. Do it without expecting anything, not even a
thank you in return. Attach no strings to your gift, but do it out of genuine love,
concern, or compassion for someone else. You will be surprised at the blessings you
will receive from giving unselfishly to those less fortunate than
yourself.
