Five Tips for Body Trust, Connection, and Acceptance.
Body Trust involves developing a deep connection with your body so that you can make choices about food, exercise, sleep, and other practices that resonate with who you are. Body acceptance encourages care for your body and being. How do you get there if you are feeling disconnected and not so cared for in your daily habits?
1 Don’t put yourself last.
I used to believe that being a martyr and serving all was the road to enlightenment. I’ve learned the hard way that the most loving act you can offer those you care about is to love, respect, and care for yourself first. In doing so, you bring freedom and space for connection, compassion, and the blossoming of deeper, more caring relationships. This self-care takes practice if you weren’t trained that way from a young age, but it’s possible to learn.
Compulsive overeating, restrictive eating, or eating obsessively clean are questionable ways that you might reward or take care of a self that you repeatedly put last. So, how do you begin to take better care of yourself and learn how to get in touch with your body’s wisdom?
2 Try meditation. Then, try it again.

Embrace that something is better than nothing. Your workouts don’t have to be perfect, but they do have to happen. Think consistency — think daily, non-negotiable motion! Your future self will thank you! Exercise is good for our immune system, our body, and our mind — you will be a more emotionally resilient, focused, compassionate version of you if you move!

Gluten and dairy restriction:OUR CHILDREN DESERVE BETTER!
When children experience respiratory, digestive, behaviour, or other health challenges, many parents naturally seek out dietary solutions. Unfortunately, the prevailing confusion in this area provides fertile ground for misconceptions and counterproductive dietary fads. Among contemporary trends, avoiding gluten and/ or dairy products are two of the most popular. Does taking your children off gluten or dairy really help? Do such recommendations rest upon fallacy or fact? As it turns out, though born of legitimate concerns, the impulse to discontinue gluten or dairy products is generally misguided, and may distract parents from truly important steps that can help kids to eat right, grow, and thrive.
