Let Go of the Past, Connect with Yourself, to Wake Up, and be Present

January 4, 2014 By Alex Gellman

Step 1: Deal with Sibling Rivalry

Do you have a relationship at all with your siblings? Carrying the weight of family grievances that reach back to your childhood can compromise your health today by literally becoming extra weight around your middle. That weight around the middle is known as visceral fat and is now a leading benchmark to evaluate your predisposition toward chronic illness..

The greatest gift you can give yourself is to let that weight go  – i.e. both  physically and mentally. In fact you may have to tackle the mental part before the physical will budge.

This is a great affirmation to shoot for in your quest to realize your new year’s resolutions. An effective tool for you to gain self knowledge that will facilitate your personal growth, is to take the Enneagram Test. Check  here to learn more about your personality at the Enneagram Institute World Headquarters site.

Glycemic Index vs. Glycemic Load – Why You Need to Know the Difference

The Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load are used to measure the rise of blood sugar when carbohydrates are consumed. It is important to know the difference between these two terms in order to make wise food choices. Carbohydrates are not the enemy – they are an important fuel for our day-to-day activities. But it is […]

Steps to a Healthier Lifestyle with Vega Allergy Testing

  Hidden Food Sensitivities A health consultation with me may involve testing with the Vega Allergy Testing System. This is a non-invasive (and painless) system to test food, chemical, and other intolerances and sensitivities, and isolate foods contributing to inflammation and digestive concerns. It helps identify foods and substances to which you may be sensitive, although not allergic. […]

How to Get a Quick Boost With a Healthy Habit

  I had a woman ask me recently: “Why is my life so hard?” She had experienced a string of stressful life events, including a health scare. Her problems were directly related to her lifestyle, though, and could be alleviated if not completely cured by a change in eating and introducing exercise habits. How many […]

HOMEOPATHY AND WHY IT WORKS

Homeopathy is an incredible system that has the ability to heal and help all who call upon it.

I experienced both protocols growing up and decided to pursue […]

Stress, Your Health, and Nutrition

“Have 5 vegetables a day!” “Eat fresh fruit, not cookies!”     Many of us heard a version of these phrases from a parent or guardian when we were kids. Though we may have protested, even our child-size brains knew they had a point. Your parent’s main concern was that you thrive and grow into […]

Give Yourself the Gift of Mindfulness –

  Whether acknowledged or not, we’ve all experienced at least a few gratifying “living in the moment” moments that were impromptu and remarkable for their impact.
