Help for Your Health

I am blogging later than normal today because I woke up later and had my early morning interrupted by things I usually do later in the morning. I finished all of the grocery shopping and am really excited about the lunch I am making today! After several weeks of digestive trouble, I have successfully restored myself! Hooray! Aaaaaaaaand in the interest of not only using the things I have learned, but most importantly to honor my body, I am instituting new habits related to food consumption. For example, drinking a liter of water before consuming food, starting with fruit, resting on my left side after eating to stimulate digestion, and also allowing food to digest completely before throwing more down the hole.

I have not been bloated since I started this, it has only been 36 hours, but I already feel better. My belly is happy and it doesn't feel like I have a family of ferrets in my intestines. :)

There are so many little things we can do to show some love to our gut, in addition to the ones I listed above, you could take up to a tbs of coconut oil, consume pre- and probiotics, eat fermented foods, drink plenty of water, rest adequately, don't eat when you are angry or sad, chew your food 20-50 times, eat slowly, eat living foods, bless your food, feel gratitude for being able to eat. Feel happy.

Enjoy gifting your belly with your new habits, and the increase in energy it brings!
