daugther
well Thers more to go on our A-z health resolutions...

we will cover up O til S today....



O- Pay attention to the OILS you consume

Your body won't run well in a totally fat free diet. we need some fat each day to absord fat-soluble vitamin A,D,E,and K , which our bodies can't process by themselves. UNderstanding it will help you make best choices for you and your family.

Not all fats are created equal. Avoid saturated fats , which mainly comes form animal sources. and 2 tropical oil such as coconut oil and palm oil.. increase cholesterol.. Ditto with hydrogenated oils such as margarine and vegetable shortening. Monosaturated fats are known to reduce bad cholesterol levels. Choose olive, canola, and peanut oil. Polyunsaturated fats, made up of omega-3 and omega-6 essential fatty acids are also good. They include corn, soya bean, sunflower, and grape seed oil....oils high in omega-3 are walnut oil, flaxsees and canola oil.



P- Be PRESENT in the moments

Are you going, " ahh?" Let's clarify. Too often we are busy planning for future. Its our next big holiday, the upcoming, big career more important things to focus on. What's missing? Enoying the moment . Living the here and now.

" life is in the living. in the tissue of everyday every hour." "don't forget to show up. make effort to live life moment to moment".



Q-Practice staying QUIET for a few minutes on a daily basis
