The countdown for 7-Days of Healthier Eating...

Peace all,

So, we're starting the countdown for 7-Days of Healthier Eating.

Friday, March 20, is the first day of spring (spring equinox) and National Meat Out day.

We've taken this a step further and last year we started 7-Days of Healthier Eating....Spring Clean your body.

For 7-Days -- No Meat. No Dairy. No Soda. No Junk Food. (and if you smoke, no cigs)

Let's give our bodies a break from meat, dairy, soda and junk food...one day at a time, for seven days. This is a whole body journey because as you release toxins it will clear you up mentally as well. So, just as we need to spring clean our house, opening up the curtains, putting away the storm windows and plastic window covering, dusting the corners we also need to do that for our bodies, mind body and soul!

The Spring Equinox is a time of renewal and replenishment. More than just physical activity, "spring cleaning" removes any stagnant energy accumulated over the slumber of the winter months and prepares our physical/mental/spiritual bodies and the actual homes in which we live, for the refreshing and nurturing energy of spring and summer.

We will be blogging and offering support during these 7-Days so come back everyday and tell us how you are progressing as well.

Preparing yourself for the 7-Days:
1. Between now and Friday go grocery shopping. Hint, you will mostly be shopping on the periphery of the store. Mostly in the fruits and vegetables section. If you're doing organic make sure the plu (the sticker on the fruit/vegetables) starts with a '9'.

Monday, March 16, Throughout the day, whenever you think about it, say to yourself.


I appreciate my body.

Place no judgement on this statement. Do not start saying to yourself that you need to lose weight or that you need to hit the gym...none of that. Just appreciate your body as it is. The body that has gotten you this far and is still working, in spite of everything and anything.
