Caring For Others Requires This First.....
"The healthier the tree, the better the fruit it can offer." 

If a tree does not have it's nutrients replenished, eventually, it will produce less fruit and poor quality fruit.  It will have no more to give.  

People are like trees.  We are created with the need to be happy.  One way we find fulfillment is by giving to and caring for others.  (Acts 20:35)  However, giving and giving without replenishing our own needs will reduce that fruitage and happiness. So, before caring for others, we must first take care of ourselves.  

Taking care of yourself is an essential part of taking care of others.

Get Moving
  • helps improve mood and reduce depression, stress, and anxiety.
  • improves digestion
  • plays a vital role in building and maintaining strong muscles and bones
  • slows aging process
  • help improve immune system
  • combats many health conditions and diseases

Incorporate Intuitive Eating Principles
  • Reject the diet mentality: say no to fad diets and rigid rules around eating.
  • Honor your hunger: keep your body fed with adequate calories and don't ignore your hunger cues.
  • Make peace with food: restriction often leads to overeating.... give yourself permission to eat all food and stop using words like "good" or "bad" to describe food.
  • Take your time to eat and respect your fullness: listen to your body's signals that it is full.
  • Discover the satisfaction factor: food is an experience meant to be nourishing and joyful... think about how a young child reacts when enjoying a delicious new food they have never had before.
  • Honor your feelings without food: find ways to comfort yourself without food... take a relaxing bath, go for a walk, call a friend, write in a journal.
  • Respect your body: learn to accept your body by remembering all the amazing things it has allowed you to accomplish and your worth does not increase as your size decreases.
  • Honor your health: anti-diet is not anti-health. Choose a variety of foods, keeping in mind how the foods make you feel. Pay attention to how your body feels when you eat and choose foods that make you feel best.
Lack of movement and proper diet, and an overabundance of environmental toxins can affect internal balance and decrease energy levels. Given the stress of our modern lives, the poor quality of our food supply, and the high load of toxins in our bodies, most of us need a basic daily supply of raw nutrients so that all our enzymes and biochemistry perform as designed.

The Eurycoma longifolia found in PowerGize helps support the male reproductive system.* Some of the compounds in this formula are known to increase muscle size and strength, enhance tone, and accelerate recovery in men.* PowerGize also contains KSM-66, a premium ashwagandha root extract, which is touted for its properties that support immunity, mental clarity, concentration, and alertness.* This ingredient has been used as an adaptogenic herb for centuries in Indian ayurvedic medicine, as well as Southeast Asian and African folk medicine.

Supplementing daily with good quality products that contain plant derived vitamins, minerals and other adaptogens to fuel the body with what it needs is an integral part of physical self care. Our bodies work hard on a daily basis to keep us alive and the least we can do to honor it is make sure we give it what it needs to continue to thrive. Supplements will never take the place of a balanced diet, nor should we see them as "magic pills" but we know that despite our best efforts to eat a balanced diet, there are several factors that make it is almost impossible to obtain all essential nutrients from food alone.

Ultimately, before we can care for others, we must care for ourselves first.  This is a continual process .... not a one and done.
