I Want To Eat Better, But . . .
Some foods are just easier to grab, ready to eat, than others. To increase vegetables in your diet, consider these faster options:
1. Salads--have a couple of types of greens ready to make quick salads.
2. Green Beans—Fresh French style can be sautéed in 2-3 minutes in some butter or olive oil, then season to taste.
3. Broiled veggies—Quarter a purple onion, slice some mushrooms and a red pepper, then stir in some olive oil. Broil for a couple minutes, till desired doneness, sprinkle with salt and enjoy.
4. Wash and cut some celery, so it’s ready when you need it.
5. Lacinato Kale—with a scissors, cut off the thick stem so that you have the green part only. This variety can be eaten like lettuce, but is even better if you cut it into ½ inch strips, sauté it in olive oil until wilted, then top with parmesan cheese.
6. Tomatoes (which are really a fruit)—divide a package of grape or cherry tomatoes into servings and store in single containers ready to go.

I Can Either Suffer Or Not

Raw Honey Mask From Anesta Dawkins
“You may have heard that honey is anti-bacterial. But it’s also used to speed the healing of wounds and minimize scarring. Honey contains powerful antioxidants, encourages healthy tissue growth and stimulates the immune system. It’s truly one of Nature’s wonders. A honey facial mask is a refreshing moisturizer. Just apply a little raw, organic honey to your face and wash it off with a gentle cleanser after 10 minutes. The honey feels sticky, which may seem strange at first. But the results are worth it. And honey doesn’t just moisturize. Many people claim it helps clear up stubborn acne. Considering the price of most acne products, I think it’s worth a try.”

Cheap & Green
Please don’t scent your house with toxic air fresheners. Toss some cinnamon sticks, orange or apple peel, cloves, etc in a pan with water and allow to simmer throughout the day. (Or bake some cookies—that works, too!)
Everyone Can Benefit From The Chi Machine
Katie W. shared her story:
“For the past four years I have been a diabetic, taking pills for my diabetes on a daily basis. Then I was introduced to The Chi Machine and The HotHouse...For years, I have been watching what I eat. My husband and I eat quite healthy and yet I never have been able to lose weight...The Chi Machine and The HotHouse have turned my life around. I have stopped taking my pills, lost a lot of weight and I feel more alive!...I have more energy than I have had in years.”
Are you interested in trying the Chi Machine for yourself? Give me a call. $429. (I am eligible to purchase one Chi Machine this month for only $370—call me if you want to buy it. 210-415-5766.)
Something to think about:
“Surely in everyday life . . . adaptability is essential . . . Flexibility is another word for it. Flexibility means that when you have no illusions about reality then you can see what’s real. And when you can see what’s real, you can respond to it not in a stereotyped way but in a way that best serves your goals in the context of your circumstances.
Charles Foster
Is it time for a session? Give me a call or send me an email. We’ll set up an appointment.
