HEALTHY MIND
Free 5-Minute Guided Meditation
Meditation relaxes the mind and ensures a more restful state before going to sleep.
But it’s so much more than that… A large body of research now suggests that meditation has huge health benefits as well. In 2012, impressive research conducted over 5 years intimated that meditation significantly reduced the risk of death from heart attack and stroke in patients with existing heart disease, likely by its effect on lowering blood pressure and reducing the effect of psychological stress (see book for further evidence and references).
We've produced a 5-minute guided meditation to help you relax and gain the many health benefits of this powerful practice...
HEALTHY DIGESTION
Food & Symptom Diary: Learn Your Digestive Triggers
Do you have digestive problems? Do certain events and situations seem to trigger your digestive problems? Does travel make you unravel? Do menstrual hormones wreak havoc on your digestion? If you suspect a connection, plan so you can anticipate, avoid, or at least prepare for such situations.
To help you make these connections, keep a journal or “Food & Symptom Diary” of what you eat and drink, as well as any medicines and supplements you take. In this diary, keep a daily record of digestive pain, discomfort, and unusual bowel movements. In time, you may see a correlation between one or more of these factors that will help you tackle the problem with your doctor. We’ve actually designed a free template which you can download below.
We suggest printing this template and sticking it somewhere helpful (like the side of the fridge) so you can easily record your symptoms each day. And trust me… if you bring a Food & Symptom Diary with 2-4 weeks of notes to your doctor, they’ll be much more likely to identify the problem and help you find a solution...
