Fear and Fatih

Hello Natural Health Family! With our independence day coming I wanted to talk about a topic that seems to be relevant in these times. The topic is the understanding of fear and how faith can counter fear to overcome difficult times for many people. 

    Many people experience fear in many ways such as thinking about what to say to another person, how to keep everything well financially, how relationships are going, failing to do something, and others. There are many things that people fear nowadays ranging from small insecurities to what may seem like devastating issues. However, if we think about all our ancestors went through to make this nation a free nation then we can see what tremendous things they had to go against to accomplish this heroic task. Our ancestors possessed an attribute that I believe helped balance out the fear they must have felt, the attribute being faith. 

    When we have faith, we are able to overcome the fear that we experience. When fighting for freedom, our ancestors had faith that what they were doing was for the good of all. Their faith helped them overcome the fear that would undoubtedly be on the minds of many during that time. The faith they had gave them great power to continue to do what they believed was the right course of action. 

    Many people experience fear but if they don’t have faith in something such as a higher power like God, faith in another person, or themselves, then they will continue to be stopped from fear. Fear can be one of the most deadly things to any man or woman. If we don’t exercise faith more of the time we will let fear be our downfall. Let us learn from our ancestors to exercise faith in those situations so that we know that it will work out. 

    It may seem like a scary time of extremes and uncertainties. This may cause us to experience fear. Nonetheless, when we practice having faith in these times we get better at staying calm which also helps us stay healthy and happy. Bless all those who fought for this country and all those who are experiencing the effects of fear especially in these extreme times. Happy Independence Day Weekend!

Most People Don't Reach Micronutrient Requirements Through Food Alone

  STORY AT-A-GLANCE Most adolescents are not getting adequate nutrient intake from diet alone — a finding confirmed from other studies in developed countries such as Spain, France, Portugal and Germany Three-quarters of adolescents consumed less than 54% of the recommended amounts of healthy foods like fruits, vegetables and dairy products Nearly three-quarters of the youth exceeded the recommended limit for sweet and salty snacks — by 453% When nutrient intake was considered from diet alone, adolescents often consumed less than recommended amounts of the fat-soluble vitamins A, D and E along with the water-soluble vitamins folate, biotin and pantothenic acid The use of dietary supplements helped to increase the adolescents’ intake of vitamins and minerals, particularly magnesium and vitamin C, but this isn’t a replacement for a healthy, nutrient-rich diet While it’s possible to get all the vitamins and minerals your body needs by eating a healthy diet, most people fall short.

Enjoy The Show

  Hi Natural Health Family! Imagine everyone enjoyed their weekend with some great weather. Did you have a win from last week? Could be something small or a big accomplishment. Whatever it was, I hope it brought you joy in some way. Sometimes life can seem strugglesome, difficult, and overwhelming. We have the ability to reframe the way we see life. Let’s talk about our ability to respond to the way we see the world around us.  Have you ever been watching a tv show or movie and thought “wow there really isn’t anything going on in the show, there are no ups and downs, no twists and turns, it just seems so bland and boring.” Maybe you have thought of that but I would guess that you probably didn’t. The movie with the director, producer, and actors is meant to grab your attention. The director wanted to captivate the audience, of course to sell more movies, but also for the people watching to get lost in the experience of watching the movie. If the movie is really good we almost forget we

A Blessing

  Hi Natural Health Family. We got some rain this weekend! It was definitely refreshing and great to see something different. I am sure many of the farmers were happy to see that along with anyone that has grass. Time to mow again haha. Just like waiting for the rain we can be more patient in other aspects of our life.  Have you ever had something happen that you thought was bad or perhaps a mistake by yourself or someone else? However, after perhaps days, weeks, months you look back and realize if that didn’t happen then you would have never realized something that helped you down the road, a blessing in disguise. Many times people get caught up in thinking that this event that happened was so bad or that it should have never happened. When we are quick to judge something then we may keep ourselves from seeing something more clearly. Of course it is okay when we get frustrated from time to time, but then we can redirect ourselves to see whatever happened in a different way we can le
