is to
Honor Your Health With Love 
Here are some ways to actively love yourself:
~ LIFESTYLE ~
1). Begin your day with love, not technology.
Before getting out of bed,
remind yourself of your value.
Put one hand on your stomach
(your center of confidence)
and the other on your heart
(your center of love).
Breathe in love and breathe out love.
2). Take time to mediate and journal.
Spend time focusing inward daily.
Begin with 5 minutes of meditation and
5 minutes of journaling each morning.
Gradually increase this time.
3). Talk yourself happy.
Use affirmations to train your mind
to become more positive.
When you catch yourself criticizing, stop
and replace that thought with
a positive and loving message instead.
4). Do what honors and respects you.
Don't participate in activities that bring you down. Don't allow toxic people in your life.
Be open to love, but be discerning
on who and what you allow into your life.
5). Be patient with yourself.
Let go of fear.
Let go of worrying about the judgments of others. Trust in yourself, relax and allow for change.
Remember that loving yourself is a choice.
~ FOOD ~1). Boost your veggie intake.
Vegetables are filled with nourishing
vitamins and minerals that
provide strength and support to our body.
Plant foods have an uplifting energy which allows us to feel lighter, and be open and loving.
Include lots of dark leafy green varieties
in your salads and smoothies.
2). Drink more water.
In addition to adding hydration to keep us
from feeling grumpy and lethargic,
water is very cleansing.
Cleansing our organs is both physically
and spiritually beneficial.
3). Focus less on calories and more on quality.
Quality food means whole foods that come from nature (sunshine, Vitamin D, nutrient-dense soil).
Calories are restrictive and not always the best guide to long-term health.
To quote Michael Pollan,
"If it came from a plant, eat it;
if it was made in a plant, don't."
