Change of Plans

 Good day Natural Health Family! Appreciate everyone for being a part of this community and wanting to better your health through more natural means. It was a good weekend. However, I did have fun plans that got canceled close to the last minute. Sometimes that is just how things happen. Life doesn’t always have to go the way we think, but that doesn’t make it better or worse. 

Have you ever had plans that didn’t go the way you intended? Maybe it was a vacation experience where you had everything planned to a T but then as the days went on the plans just fell apart. What about a time where you wanted something to go one way for so long, but then 5 years later you could see it from a different angle and say “wow, glad it didn’t go that way.” Many times we want things to work out exactly as we want it to or the way we have thought about it. We know that many times life doesn’t go that way though. Plans get canceled, activities get rescheduled, and we experience events that may seem to turn our lives upside down. These are points in life that can affect us in two ways, it can either cause us to feel victim to circumstances that we experience or it can be times of learning, embracing, and trusting that there may be a lesson in what we may perceive as a mistake, as an unfortunate event, or devastating occurrence. 


We all can react to different happenings in life. It is important that we don’t allow them to dictate our behaviors and actions for too long afterwards. We can help ourselves by seeing the situation through another lens and allowing life to bring something new. Life can give us problems or lessons, it’s up to us to choose to see which one it can be. Have a great week!

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
