A picture says a thousand words, but in this case, it was a video with no sound that was very intriguing to everyone. I wanted to start out with the link to the first video which can be found on utube. It is in regards to the lack of nutritional content in our foods today and the impacts to our bodies of being overfed and undernourished. I will fully admit I was very intersted in this video myself, as I came across this at the time I was starting to focus on nutrition for my kids. I always knew my kids didn’t eat the best, but this was one of those aha moments. It was like a sign from God saying, listen to your gut, you are going in the right direction. Sometimes we need those little reminders and some sort of affirmation to know that what we think and feel is the right way to go. This video was one of those moments for me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2OOHzJyIAQ
Each person and family is at a diffferent place in their lives when it comes to their health. Most of the information I will share in my blogs will be beneficial to each and every one of you in your own time. Maybe you are not ready to focus on an area like cutting down on processed foods, it is important to know that it is OK to be right where you are in your journey. There is no right or wrong place to be and you will know when it is right to dig deeper into a particular area. Trust your gut, if you have a feeling or idea that comes to your head, there is a reason for it. There is no quick fix or miracle answer, but if you focus on taking action one simple step at a time, you will be truly amazed at the positive difference you can make in your family.
