How does your day start?

Are you a "OMG" the alarm is going off already, UGGGHHHH" OR a "Rise n Shine world, cuz here I come"? Both lead to entirely different experiences for the day and definitely become a strong Pre-cursor for the day to come. With this understanding, I personally choose the "Rise n Shine"....way to start my day and I will tell you this, from personal experience, it is the BEST way to start any day!

With my attitude in check and set with Intentions of making it a GREAT day, I begin thinking of FOOD (smile). How busy is my day, what do I have to plan for, how long will I be away from any selections of food, will I be by any selections of food at all? I love breakfast...the smell, the choices, and the way I feel after getting some yummy in my tummy. I will tell you what I have learned over the years that makes me feel best and what makes my stomach twist n turn. I have learned that while we are sleeping our body is taking advantage of the down time with no interruptions on getting itself back or closer to Alkaline (which is a good place, opposite of Acidic which is a bad place to be). So, in waking up, we should focus more on helping our body get closer to that Alkaline place by eating something that is not fried, high in saturated fats, processed, loaded with sugars, and high in sodium. Try looking more towards eggs, whole wheat toast, fruit, whole juiced juice, some sauteed veggies....this would be an IDEAL breakfast~healthy protein, healthy carbs, some fiber and some micronutrients with the veggies. This results in Power n Energy, the perfect way to get your day up n rollin on a good note (smile).

Now for example the bad: T-bone steak or Breakfast ham, fried hashbrowns, side of pancakes...this combo results in High Saturated fats, High Sodium, fried in oil dehydrated potato, Enriched white flour pancakes (digests and turns straight to sugar) and the ever so sweet syrup (more sugar). This type of a start will do two things: put you back into a food coma and body will be slammed into a spiked sugar load, which results to a low energy and hungry again (even after consuming this 2000 calorie breakfast....yes, you will be hungry again). This is the reason why people skip breakfast, because they get sleepy when they should be "bright eyed n bushy tailed" ready for the day and also if this causes them to be hungry again, why would anyone want to eat breakfast?!.

Yes, it is so true, what we put into our body and what we get outta our body all depends on US and what we Choose. For some people it is hard to shift into a Breakfast person over night, but there is an answer to this...Replacement Protein Meal Shakes for breakfast. They absolutely work, super convenient, super easy and super nutritious for every person for every day. All in all, have a mentality that demands and persists to live your BEST day.

FIBER! what, where and why?

Isn't that Fiber stuff for old people?
I mean, I am young.....what is Fiber anyway? (audiance lol)
Eewww, that stuff is disgusting, brown flakes or weird thin brown things.
I always see those commercials that are telling people to get more Fiber in
their daily diet intake, and the people are always looking like senior citizens ya know...
I mean, I am not always regular and not always comfortable when it comes time to visit
El Bano but I am young still anyways. (audiance hmmmm).

FIBER. Why FIBER?
I hope this will inspire us all to get More Fiber.

Fiber is our FRIEND.....Yes, a Life saving friend :) Basically, while Fiber is moving through
our body, it is also taking toxins out with it, ALSO creating a smoother exiting experience.
It promotes more frequent bowl movements that are easier to pass. (audiance aaahhhh relief)
Fiber reduces our chances of becoming a Cancer patient.
It is kinda odd what I am about to say here, why does Fiber disappear in our meals when we are
"feed ourselves capable" to "well, you're 60 now and you should be gettin your Fiber", why does
it change like that?

When we are Pregnant the Doctor says to eat Fiber for Mom and Baby benefits too. When Baby is
born, we are told to make sure baby gets his/her Fiber so they get their vitamins and helps them
stay regular. Suddenly, baby is now Teen ager, wants to make own decisions, eat what they
like and it will be opposite of what you are requesting and teaching. Out of nowhere, 60 yrs of
age is here and Doctor tells you to get more Fiber. Your body is sick, aging faster than normal,
potential environment for Cancer.

There are a lot of things that we need to look out for when it comes to Cancer causing, but if
just adding Fiber is part of the trick.............then GET YOUR FIBER!! Young, Old, Pregnant, Men
and Women have to BALANCE your nutrition habits with your DESIRES or Wellnes Goals.

Fiber helps reduce High Blood Pressure, High Cholesterol, Lowers Blood Sugar count, supplies
important Vitamins and Minerals to the Body. In fact, let me just share this write up I found on
FIBER:

http://fruiteze.com/pdf/KidsFiber.pdf

Balance it all out, put into our body what is Good and reduce the number of careless times that
do not serve me or my body WELL.

One step at a time.

Getting GOING in LIFE

Now days it has been made so EASY to be IDLE. COMPLACENT. STAGNANT. NOT MOVING. With giant LCD or Plasma TV's, High-tech Video games, Laptops, Cell phone TEXTING...and Microwave boxed foods, done in a flash, no time wasted in getting back to the Couch and game pad. There is a downside to all of this GREAT NEW Technology and we are really starting to take notice by way of the ever expanding waistlines, larger than ever before children, behavioral issues and increased Doctor visits. We are now learning that we have to CHANGE things in order to get back to MOVING, ACTIVE LIVING, BODY HEALTH, MENTAL HEALTH, IDEAL BODY WEIGHT and No more Doctor visits. It does COST us in a big way financially to just SIT and buy cheap fake food, our Health care costs begin to skyrocket and then that viscious cycle begins repeating itself. Depression sets in, feelings of Hopelessness, Failure, Anxiety, dis-Stress and dis-ease all make home inside of our body to only promote illness and a fast track to AGING!!

Thankfuly, for us, our body is a SELF HEALING machine. Once we stop all the UNCONSCIOUS and destructive actions towards our body that are defeating its primary functions, which is to stay ALIVE, our body recognizes this and begins to set itself back on its NATURAL course by Healing itself. In just a matter of days, we begin to notice better energy, better focus, better mental state, less bloating and inflammation, less headaches or migranes, reduction of heartburn and indigestion flare ups. Once we notice this wonderful feeling, we are to help our body out by staying with this type of lifestyle so that we can continue feeling this way. It is up to us to stay CONSCIOUS and AWARE of how we are setting ourselves up for the day, how busy is our schedule, how we need to be prepared for our best results in everything we have to do, so that we can make it to the finish line and look back through our day and be HAPPY with it all.

Have a Blessed day and remember to just GET GOING IN LIFE!!!!

Stand up and Fight the powers which are against you

Everyday we go head to head with many energies that are not always working in our favor. We never really know what to expect, nothing is guaranteed, and by no means are we able to predict the events that take place in our daily lives. It's as though we are literally walking in FAITH, whether we see it that way or believe in Faith at all, and just gleefully pacing ourselves in a forward motion through time. Anything could happen the very next second of our lives, like a meeting of a new friend, an unexpected phone call changing our lives for the better, winning the Lotto, falling in Love, or even tragedies that no one ever dreams of. It is better for us to live in FAITH rather than the anxious behaviors like worry, doubt, paranoid fear based thoughts that will destroy your mind, body and spirit slowly or by way of heart attack due to the overload of stress. Faith will also place us in a Positive state of mind and heart which allows fear to dissolve from our thoughts and actions. Faith opens the door to allow many blessings and opportunities to present themselves right before your very eyes. Yes, we are all prone to accidents, traumas, pitfalls, obstacles that are not always controlled by us, but by being in the wrong place at the wrong time with a lesson attached to the end result. This is where we have to "Stand up and Fight the powers which are against us". We have to CHOOSE in a time of chaos how to make it through the disaster or distractions so that we can continue living life WELL. We can claim VICTORY or defeat, SURVIVOR or victim. One is an empowering course of action and the other is a surrendering of power.

Stand up and Fight to live, claim your rights boldly, choose the battles in life that are worthy of your integrity and position and always use the greatest power of all to fight the darkest of enemies~ which is LOVE. The power of LOVE supersedes ALL forms of darkness, sheds a light that exposes all lies, embraces the strongest being with the weakest mind, speaks to the heart of the loudest most vicious mouth. Love stands up for those who seek it, desire it, and live it. Love fights the powers that intend to crush your spirit and steal your joy. Love honors meekness, humility, mercy, kindness, gentleness and a heart which treasures honesty. Love also brings Peace of mind, body and spirit. You will never be overcome by the powers which are against you if you CHOOSE LOVE, Choose to fight because it is RIGHT, and CHOOSE to STAND UP because you are LOVED. These are the VICTORIES which are yours to claim, gifts from your Heavenly Father, Creator of you and me, Our Lord who claims us as His Children. Never give up, because He who is and has always been with us has never given up on us.

Cont'd at a later date.........

HealthylivingHappylife???

Everyday there is something NEW that fits into HealthylivingHappylife meaning. Some would read the title of my blog and understand right away what this blog page would consist of and some have a lot of questions. The mind set of the world is changing, shifting into a higher understanding of who we are, what we are, and how to be better. This transition of belief and habit are happening only because of the "cause and effects" that have directly affected our "Health of our body" and "Wellness of our mind". We are also understanding that we do have more control over our state of being (our state of spirit). This trinity, Mind Body and Spirit, is what we are and when one or two are neglected, we are left feeling unfulfilled. To LIVE requires GOOD HEALTH and to "see" LIFE, we must be HAPPY. EVERYTHING that we want to have in life takes work to get it, a relationship is a perfect example, because we are in a relationship with EVERYTHING!! Recently the highest grossing movie of all time AVITAR shows us that we are in RELATIONSHIP with EVERYTHING and also for the relationship to be WELL, it requires a FULL Heart and Mind connection because it is all about ENERGY.

Our lives are Healthy when we have positive, clean, flowing energy. We are Happiest when we are full of light and truth, dismissing ALL fear which blocks our energy flow. We have been given control of the CHOICES that we make everyday, good or bad. We are either consciously living or unconsciously living everyday. If we are able to be HONEST and TRUE to ourselves first then we are allowing only GOOD to flow into our lives, but if we are CLOSED and DENY, then we are limiting our lives to being able to grow into the supreme being that God has designed us to be. Suffering is a state of being STUCK in a place in life that is not serving our greatest good, it is a place where our spirit is stifled, being pushed down, not growing. When we are able to review our lives with honesty, stepping outside of ourselves and looking back at what we see, we are able to identify exactly what is not working anymore. One method I like to use when we are doing a LIFE CLEANSE is just like a "garage sale", we get to empty out our closets in our mind, empty out files in our spirit and remove old unused patterns that have broken down our body. What we are really doing is DYING to an OLD self and REBIRTHING into a NEW LIFE with PURPOSE and CONSCIOUSNESS. This is a process that takes some work, thought, learning, determination, persistence, passion, discipline, and commitment. All of it will fill us with a new discovery of what we are truly capable of and an ENERGY that we have always desired. A body that feels and looks 20 yrs younger, a mind that sees and thinks only positive and good things and a spirit that is lifted, giving and loving.

I believe that when we start seeking, we will find; when we start asking, we will receive; and when we start knocking, the doors will open. I know that when we decide to live differently than what we have been, we are making the decision to BE different than before. Sometimes we have to depart from things of old in order to reach the place that our heart desires. Our heart is that place of compassion for others, consideration for others, caring for others and when we start to think from those places, then we will find our Heart Mind connection.
HealthylivingHappylife is ALL of this and more.

Always LOVE, Sunny

Living Daily on Purpose

Yes, I said "Living Daily on PURPOSE"......
Some people have the strictest schedules, leading them to always be on track.
Some people make their own schedules, allowing them to step away from obligations and unwanted stress.
Some people have no direction at all, only to find themselves feeling unfulfilled, unworthy, and invisible.
Whether we have a schedule or not doesn't really matter for anyone or anything if we don't know our PURPOSE and live it everyday!!!

There is "Living Daily on Purpose" or there is "Living Daily on ACCIDENT".

We all get 24 hrs to live, but we don't all live it the same. I understand each of our lives is served, managed, directed and played out in a manner that will deliver us to opening our eyes and getting us to that higher conscious and awareness living that sets us up into "Living Daily on Purpose" instead of "Living Daily on Accident". We all really do have a PURPOSE here on this wonderful and amazing Planet we call HOME. We, humans, have been given dominion over the earth (land, sea and life-plant, animal and man). Serving these organic living organisms is our PURPOSE. Think about it, we only get one life, one planet, one ocean. We are true miracles because we are not the end of the life line~we reproduce and multiply (man, plant and animal kingdom). But our PLANET is an exception, nature can only continue its course for so long by itself, we are here to co-manage our EARTH. Everyday is our opportunity to help sustain the magnificent life of our Planet Earth and the life that resides in and on it. Everyday someone is taking the attention off of themselves and recognizing a NEED that they desire to be a part of regarding the health of the Planet. I have discovered that we are all a reflection of this environment we live in. We are all either a symptom or a solution to the health of LIFE.

Yes, I have lived in some extraordinary conditions and places and I have also lived in some not so exceptional conditions. I haven't always chosen to rise above things that didn't serve my greater purpose, I haven't always experienced joy and pleasures of life, but I know I have always wanted to continue living because I trusted in my gut that things could only get better. Plus, someone told me once to believe in God and let Him lead my way and that with God, nothing or no one can harm me. Now, after years of my own tragedies and triumphs, I have chosen to "Live Daily on Purpose" because I know the results will be satisfying to my eyes and fulfilling to my heart and a song in my ears that brings Joy to my spirit.

I am now a voice for those that can not speak, I am an example for those to follow in caring for our Planets wellness and the lives in and on it and I stand tall in doing what is right for those who are still knocked down. There are LAWS that protect US, the PLANET and the ANIMALS, there are RULES and GUIDELINES that are placed to keep harm away, and there is a lot of LOVE, HOPE and FAITH that is here to help us continue to GROW and become BETTER at everything we do. "Living Daily on Purpose" will expose your everyday as stepping stones to your dreams, WE will get to the final result if we choose to live in this mindset, belief, and pattern.
