I recently joined the gym and started an exercise program, I stopped drinking anything containing caffeine only water and green tea or jucie. I no longer eat white bread,only whole grain wheat which is a huge acconmplishment for me considering my love for bread and I am all natural with my hair now. No more chemicals or heat, . I also have changed my resting habits to where I try to get atleast 8 hours of sleep. I have noticed a complete change in my skin and how I feel.

    Over 25 years I have changed many things.

    Besides nutrition being a 'huge' part, spiritual awareness is top at the list.  

    For me it was the most critical and important addition/change to my life. 


    Breathing is an integral part of my life and practice too!

    It's quite inspiring to read all the positive and life enhancing choices that so many of you have made. I can't say that I have done anything new for a long time in this regard, but I can say that I attribute my good health in good part to several life style choices that I have made:

    1. Being a vegetarian for 36 years

    2. No intake of drugs, nikotine, alcohol, coffee

    3. drinking plenty of water every day

    4. Eating less

    I have not been to a doctor in decades and am practically never sick, not even a cold, so what I am doing must be working.

    I have been juicing and eating only fresh fruits, veggies, chicken and fish the last 2 weeks and have lost 14 pounds. I feel so much better and have so much more energy. I am a great water drinker. BREATHING is a new concept to me as I am not a good breather. BREATHING BREATHING BREATHING Gloria. I am also walking a friends dog for the exercise and also reaping the rewards of the friendship.
