Reflections on 2010

This is the time every year when we reflect on the "best of" lists of the year. Reflecting on how we were, what we accomplished, where we traveled, who we lost and gained. The balance sheet of life, one year at a time...

Carb Craving

These days of celebrationg, eating, drinking and making merry leave us craving carbs. Complex carbohydrates are not so bad, but unfortunately, what we crave is simple sugars- pure and unadulterated, the sweeter the better! Live it up, but make sure to balance the craving with proteins, and drink enough pure water, otherwise dizziness, nausea, headaches, bloating, even muscle aches will be the result... not to mention weight gain or high blood pressure and diabetes.
The next step would naturally be the resolution to cut the carbs out for a more healthful lifestyle altogether!

Christmas Traditions

Christmas Traditions are not set in stone. Everyone has different traditions, culturally, spiritually and materially. Sometimes it is very comforting to repeat what your family of origin has always done, sometimes it is refreshing to strike out on your own, either as an individual or a family and make new traditions, or just do different things each year. New traditions can be added, old ones can be either be kept and continued or discontinued if they are not serving anyone's highest good. Of course, these can always be brought back and resurrected at a future time, if desired. I reflected on our traditions and realized they are being upgraded every year, due to changes in the family, interests and even due to weather, economy, etc.
It is empowering to know that flexibility always keeps treasured times, such as this one in our lives special and especially sacred. Flexibility is strength, and builds overall Health~ Physical, Mental, Emotional and Spiritual!

Anxiety & Relaxation

This is a very anxiety producing time of year. Almost everyone cannot wait for Christmas, or cannot wait for this season just to be over! Relaxation is the key to resolving anxiety. It also relieves many other afflictions, as well. The ways to relax are many, and each person has thier favorites! I love deep breathing- mainly because I don't breathe properly during busy days- most of us don't...

Holiday Blues

Holiday Blues, so sad, so true... Please, PLEASE watch your friends and family for any loved ones who exhibit any signs or symptoms of the Holiday Blues- sadness, depression, lackluster personality, moodines, sleepiness, irritability, avoidance, extreme social anxiety, etc. This sad affliction comes at this time of year due to the cold weather, out of school or off work. Even the thought of being alone during the holidays is more than some can bear. Or the opposite- the thought of being with others is overwhelming. Even vitamin deficiencies, such as Vitamin D can cause such extreme depression, especially in the winter. Be on the alert, be aware and possibly save a life!
