SHOW UP!

Hello LWA 2024 Seekers of Greater Well-BEing!

Dr. Sulak here for a Meaningful Mindful Moment and the NOVEMBER 2024 newsletter. There’s a saying I’m sure we are all familiar with: If you keep doing what you’re doing, you will keep getting what you’re getting.  WRONG! When it comes to unhealthy habits such as excessive / unhealthy processed and fast food, insufficient physical activity, stress, inadequate sleep, exposure to toxins in our food / air / on our skin, and not living out your talents / purpose, things won’t stay the same - - they will get WORSE! Have you noticed! As I continue to mention throughout the LWA 2024 webinars: AGING is a DISEASE – which can be accelerated OR slowed way down.  I want to be in the “Slow Down” aging camp.  

What do we need to do?  To quote one (I have many!) of my truly inspirational walking buddies enrolled in LWA 2024, we need to SHOW UP! She congratulates herself every time she does something healthy. She SHOWS UP! She mentioned she loved my comment in last week’s webinar: Don’t CANCEL on yourself! 

HOW? By Living WELL Aware! The more we focus on healthy foods that are nutrient dense and calorie low in appropriate amounts for our weight / activity level, meeting the activity guidelines of 150 to 300 minutes of fitness per week, adequate sleep, stress reduction, avoiding toxins, and purposing our given talents, the healthier and happier we will BE. 

Some strategies we have discussed in the webinars and the LWA Online Course: FASTING (Start slowly! View the section on NUTRITION for strategies.), low-carb plant-based FOOD PLAN with lean, healthy meats, AUTOPHAGY (learn the many ways to recycle yourself!), BREATHING techniques to reprogram the autonomic nervous system for stress reduction, SLEEP, meditation, and the many approaches to lower body INFLAMMATION (the root cause of diseases) are just a few examples.

BUT, don’t get overwhelmed! It’s a journey. Baby steps lead to giant leaps. There’s always something we can do to improve our health status. That’s the FOCUS of living WELL aware. THANKS for showing up and reading this newsletter!

In LWA 2024 Webinar #16 on Wednesday November 13 at 6:30pm, the focus will be SUPPLEMENTS: HARMFUL VS HELPFUL.  Dr. Waxman and I will share the latest scientific information and discuss what we personally take to elevate our own well-being. It will be packed with pearls.

The recordings of the 15 previous 2024 webinars are available to registrants along with the comprehensive online course. Tell your family, friends, coworkers that it’s not too late to jump on board. Registrants will have access to all the 2024 live webinar recordings AND the online course through March 2025 – or later. LINK to REGISTRATION. Future webinars will cover important topics including powerful breathing techniques to lower stress and disease, hot/cold therapies, supplements: harmful vs helpful, and much, much more. JOIN LWA 2024 NOW! We continue to add people to the LWA 2024 list. THANKS to our newcomers!
