An Apple a Day …
Apples are a rich source of quercetin, a flavonoid associated with a reduced risk of several health ailments. Studies show that high quercetin intake may be associated with reduced risks of lung cancer, prostate cancer, asthma, and type 2 diabetes. Up your intake of quercetin by eating more apples, as well as citrus fruits.
Flavonoid intake and risk of chronic diseases. Knekt, P., Kumpulainen, J., Jarvinen, R., Rissanen, H., Heliovaara, M., Reunanen, A., Hakulinen, T., Aromaa, A., American Journal of Clinical Nutrition 2002 Sep;76(3):560-568.
Walk to Reduce Stress Levels
Research reveals that three 10-minute walks taken at different times of the day are as effective at relieving tension and anxiety as one 30-minute walk. To keep stress levels under control, take a quick walk before work, take a 10-minute stroll at lunchtime, and then finish your day with a brisk power walk around the block when you get home.
Accumulating brisk walking for fitness, cardiovascular risk, and psychological health. Murphy, M., Nevill, A., Neville, C., Biddle, S., Hardman, A., Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise 2002 Sep;34(9):1468-1474.
The Power of the Mind to Heal. According to Joan Borysenko, healing is really the simplest of matters. We heal by becoming truly ourselves, by discovering our wholeness.
The process of healing is one of self-realization. It is a peeling away from the fears, concepts and negativity that obscure the light of our own true nature and its innate essence of compassion, creativity, wisdom and love. As negativity is transformed, the physical body often heals as well.
