Happy Mothers’ Day! All across America, people are celebrating women and honoring mothers and motherhood, maternal bonds, and the influence of mothers in society.

After watching a video on You Tube, I was reminded that mothers do hold a position that sometimes goes unnoticed. It is not a paid position and they are lucky if they get a break or get time to themselves to do others things they love.

So if you are a mum, I just want to say "Thank You" for all you have done and all you continue to do.

May 11 also coincides with the beginning of the National Women’s Health Week. The week-long event ends on May 17, 2014. In support of Women’s health, I invite you to participate in this annual observance encouraging women to make their health a priority and help women understand what it means to be well.

As women, we can take this opportunity this week to love on ourselves by taking care of ourselves. We do so well in taking care of everyone else, how about taking some time this week to tell yourself you matter too.
You may decide to schedule your routine medical checkup, enroll in a weight loss program, incorporate exercise into your lifestyle, Schedule Complimentary Discovery Session with Ade to help you get back on track, eat healthier, get enough rest, pledge to be a well woman or participate in the National Women's Checkup Day; any additional action you take today counts.

Have you ever wondered why the passengers on an aircraft is instructed by the flight attendant to always fit their own mask before helping children, the disabled, or persons requiring assistance during pre-flight safety demonstration? The idea is that you will not be in a position to help others if you don't help yourself first. The same principle applies to your health; Take proper care of yourself first so that you will be in a position to take care others.

Being overweight or obese is a common struggle in the United States: Sixty-two percent of U.S. women older than 20 are overweight or obese. Being overweight or obese increases your chances of get-ting many diseases, including: l coronary artery disease l type 2 diabetes l stroke l cancer of the colon, breast, thyroid, esophagus, kidney, gall-bladder, and pancreas.

Good quality of life, long life, absence of sickness and diseases, happiness, more energy, weight control and the list goes on are benefits of taking proper care of yourself which cannot be over emphasized.

Choosing Between Living Food and Dead Food

4/26/2014

0 Comments

Every year about this time, Christians celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Thank God, Jesus is alive I could not imagine my life without him.

The word “alive” or living brings hope, reassurance, life, health, sustenance while the word “dead” connotes a lot of negative things depending on the context it is used.

I'm so excited about this topic because finally we can begin to get down to business i.e. the reason we feel the way we feel.

Today the challenge is to find out how alive or dead the food we consume is. There are many places where we store food in our homes but I chose the refrigerator because it’s one the most frequently visited places where we store food.

You may be wondering why you should care or why this is important. The answer is simple: nutrient value and the health of your body.
94% of all chronic diseases like diabetes, obesity, autoimmune diseases, infertility, cancer and more are related to food intake. Think of how many lives we would be able to save if we were able to effectively teach people how to make healthy food choices and give them ways to stick to it. Living foods—especially fresh, raw foods—are more nutritious because they still have all of their vitamins, minerals, and enzymes (which the body needs to help you properly digest and metabolize food). Some of these nutrients in food typically get destroyed during the processing, cooking, and packaging that dead food goes through. In the most dangerous categories of dead foods—those that have refined flour and added sugar—they may actually suck stored vitamins out of your body as your system tries to metabolize them.

You can eat food that is organic every day, but if most of it is cooked on high heat then it is void of nutrition. Just about everyone has heard of the benefits of eating raw "live" food, but what ratio of your total food intake is actually raw (or not heated over 120 degrees)? When you add up everything you put in your mouth, from baked, boiled, broiled, and fried, you may find you're eating a majority of "dead food." If you have a "cooked food" profile above 70%, you need to flip that ratio and become at least 70% raw, and it may take a while to adjust.

To begin today’s exercise, Click Here to get a download of Alive or Dead Check list. Go through items in your refrigerator to determine if they are living or dead. While you go thru items in your fridge, check them for expiry dates especially the bottled items.

Over the last 4 years, I've been spending a few weeks each year doing the Daniel fast which involves eating Living Food. These times have been the best seasons of my life. Apart from feeling so alive and healthier in my body, my spirit is so alert and I’m able to receive messages from God with great clarity and comprehension. The emotional highs and lows also disappear so it becomes a spirit, soul and body experience.

This exercise is more efficient for those who cook and eat at home regularly and have at least 10 -15 items in their refrigerator. So download the Checklist and get started.

Getting Back to Fitness? You may be a newbie or once physically fit but you got off track, nevertheless it’s a good thing that you are thinking about getting back in shape.

You are taking one of the most important steps which is finding out what you need to do to get back in shape so you can begin to look good and feel good or better still look fit and fabulous.

First step to getting started with fitness is getting clear on your “WHY?” Why are you taking out the time at this point in your life to get back in shape and why is it important that you do it now?

It is important to know this because it will keep you going on days you want to slack off or quit. I suggest writing it out in a journal or a place you have easy access to. To make this exercise effective, keep asking yourself “why am I deciding to get back in shape now?” Write each answer down, stop asking this particular question till you get to a point when you no longer have answers. You may need to do this over a period of days.

Next step is to know your health numbers - Healthy weight, BMI, Blood Pressure, cholesterol levels, waist size. Record the numbers and the date. This would help you keep track of your progress. Take time to celebrate as you see the numbers change for good.

Love is in the air, if you have been to the stores lately or on social media, you may have noticed. You may have been spending some quality time with your loved ones because Valentine's Day was few days ago.
Isn’t that so typical that we spend time loving so many people but forget one really important person, YOU!

You see I’ve realized that I can't properly love other people if I don’t pay attention to what going on with me.
Even the bible says to love your neighbor as you love yourself. So Yes, I’ve been taking some time to love myself so that I can come back refresh and rejuvenated to serve others. How about you? Will you join me on this love quest?

“Loving yourself” should be something you do occasionally. Don’t let your love tank run dry before you realize you need a refill. You may have experienced what happens when you allow the gas in your car tank get close to empty. The red light comes on and it becomes an emergency situation.

In order to avoid an emergency situation, I encourage you to spend some time today to love yourself. The first step is to create some “Me Time” to love yourself. I share the other steps in the video below.
I talk about 6 steps to take now to begin to love yourself.
1.      Schedule a “Me Time”.
2.      Write 3 things you want to achieve in this year.
3.      What are those struggles that are preventing me from getting to my desired goals?
4.      What actions can I begin to take right now to stop the self-sabotaging habits?
5.      Take Action by taking small steps towards achieving your goal.
6.      Celebrate Your Success – Big or Small.

Importance of Taking Care of Yourself

2/14/2014

Let’s first take a look at the attributes of love from I Cor 13: 4-8.

4 Love endures long and is patient and kind; love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy, is not boastful or vainglorious, does not display itself haughtily.
5 It is not conceited (arrogant and inflated with pride); it is not rude (unmannerly) and does not act unbecomingly. Love (God’s love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking; it is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it [it pays no attention to a suffered wrong].
6 It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail.
7 Love bears up under anything and everything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person, its hopes are fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything [without weakening].
8 Love never fails [never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end]. As for prophecy ([a]the gift of interpreting the divine will and purpose), it will be fulfilled and pass away; as for tongues, they will be destroyed and cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away [it will lose its value and be superseded by truth].

Today I’ll be sharing about the importance of loving yourself by taking care of yourself because there is only one “YOU”.

The bible also talks extensively about loving other people. Please take some time to read 1 John 4:7-21.

Most times when we use the word love, we often use it as an express our affection to God and man. By man, I mean other people but as I was driving to work yesterday and listening to a preaching CD by Joyce Meyer which talked about the importance of taking care of ourselves. I realized there’s one person I often neglect to talk about loving, which is myself.

So I realized that love is 2 dimensional, Loving God first because he first loved us (1 jn 4:19) and loving what God created (which includes our other people, me and other things he created).

Matthew 22:35-40 (NKJV)
34 But when the Pharisees heard that He had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together. 35 Then one of them, a lawyer, asked Him a question, testing Him, and saying, 36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?” 37 Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’[a] 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’[b] 40 On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”

You’ll be reading about loving yourself by taking care of yourself. Not in the context of being selfish or drawing too much attention to yourself but having a balance between loving God, loving the things he created and remembering to take care of you.

Here are some questions to ponder on…
