The mere fact that we have an American Institute of Stress is an indication of just how serious this problem is, and we must combat stress head-on!! Please visit the site (link above) and read more about what it is, what causes it and what you can do to minimize stress in your life. I know even I'm guilty of oftentimes putting too much on my plate and that's my own fault. We must remember to "seize the day" and pause to reflect on what is truly important in our un-ending list of things to do.
Please remember to enjoy your day, and those lovely people you encounter in your day, and most of all, smile and enjoy yourself!!

Dr. Andrew Weil
"Andrew Weil, M.D., has devoted the past thirty years to developing, practicing, and teaching others about the principles of integrative medicine. Dr. Weil combines a Harvard education and a lifetime of practicing natural and preventive medicine to provide a unique approach to health care which encompasses body, mind, and spirit." It's no wonder why I admire him so much!! To read more about this extraordinary doctor, please visit his website.
I do not typically blog on Tuesdays, but when I saw a video featuring Dr. Weil this morning, I had to share it with you because he solidifies the Trinity Fitness philosophy for eating and living well.
Dr. Weil says in this video:
~ Consume lots of fruits and vegetables
~ Buy fresh whole grain bread in your grocery bakery
~ Make sure you consume plenty of Omega 3 fatty acids, which can be obtained by eating fish (salmon, mainly)
~ Add spices to flavor your food (parsley, basil, thyme, garlic, ginger and turmeric). Simply because you're eating healthy doesn't mean you have to sacrifice taste. Ginger and turmeric are the main spices he mentions. They both have anti-inflammatory properties, and turmeric has anti-cancer properties. (Click on the words ginger and turmeric to read more about them - you'll be amazed!).
Dr. Weil says if you make healthier choices, such as the ones he mentions, within 6 - 8 weeks you'll notice a difference in the way you feel, and you may even get the added benefit of losing weight. You can't go wrong!!
Trinity Fitness encourages you to make better selections at the grocery store. It's easy to buy the pre-packaged, preservative saturated foods, but you owe it to yourself, your family and your health to bring home more naturally grown foods.
