A New Year... and a New You!

Happy 2011 Everybody!
I wanted to take a minute to encourage you to take better care of yourself this year.  Most people say they will, but few actually do.  So I thought I would share with you some simple ways to take better care of yourself (in no particular order... just brainstorming here).

  • Drink more water!  And, by the way, water means water.  The "water" in juice, soda, tea, coffee, etc... does not count!  Check out http://www.watercure.com/
  • Be Active.  Walk more.  Play more.  Take the stairs more.  Be outside more.
  • Sleep.  At least 7-8 hours per night for most of you.
  • Decrease coffee and alcohol, and replace with water!  Stimulants & Depressants (coffee & alcohol) should definitely be reduced.
  • Exercise.  Cardio (walking, running, swimming, etc..) 3-5 days per week for 20-45 minutes per day.
  • Exercise.  Strength Training (weights, pilates, push-ups, sit-ups, etc..) 3-5 days per week for 20-45 minutes per day.
  • Chiropractic Care!  We keep your spine in alignment and keep your nervous system working better.  When your nerves are happier, your body is happier.  This will help keep you healthier!
  • Be Social!  Hang out with friends and family and have fun!
  • Don't eat fast food!  Fast Food Is Not Food!
Just a quick note, and I hope it is helpful.  Please contact me if I can be of service to you, your friends, or your family!
