Susie Beiler, of Spectrum Health Consulting, offers five easy tips for better eating that will help any of us to become more productive, energetic, and successful at whatever we do. It’s not just for people running their own businesses, but for any of us.
Susie has a very soft voice in this video, especially with tips #5, so you might need to turn your volume way up.
“I believe that when we have our health we can use our bodies as a tool to help us achieve our mission. Therefore, these 5 strategies will help you be more successful with your health and also in your work.”
Summary:
- Hydrate: flush out the toxins 1st thing in the morning: Set up your flow for the day.
- Leafy Greens: eat more green leafy vegetables such as kale, collards, broccoli, spinach and swiss chard. The magnesium in these vegetables will help you be more heart centered. Since my magnesium is the number 1 mineral needed by the heart and our spirituality, emotions, and physicality are all connected, when you feed your heart what it needs, it can soften, open, and you can be a heart centered human being. This is where the world is going and to be a leader, you can only achieve true success if you operate in your life from your heart.
- Breathe while you eat: allow your belly to really expand so that you can oxygenate your digestive system, your immune system, and your second brain. you’ll assimilate your nutrients better, you’ll feel calmer, and you’ll be smarter.
- Chew your food: This is a great strategy to help you slow down. So many times our minds are so busy with all the things we have to get done, that we tend to translate that into our mealtimes. For all you smoothie drinkers out there, chew your smoothies- don’t drink them. You need those salivary enzymes to be working in your mouth so that you conserve energy for the important stuff… like being successful!
- Eat with the seasons: Eating seasonally reconnects you to the natural rhythms of the universe. With this deep connection you can make intelligent and intuitive decisions for your business because you are connected to something much deeper that than what everyone else is saying. You are tapping into true wisdom.
