Debra's Healing Kitchen
Summary: You must have a goal bigger than your current situation if you want to improve your future. Ask yourself, what is your goal? What do you want to accomplish? Want to be healthy and enjoy your family? These are goals worth working for. The most important lesson that I learned is the first step in any healing process is to change your mind.Romans 12:2 says, "Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect."I share these lessons in hopes of inspiring people that are stuck in an old mindset that restricts their progress in better health and better living.I am still on my journey, and I invite you to walk with me and let's see where God wants to take us and who can we bless along the way. Take this journey with me.

Old habits die hard. Changing your habits is a process that involves several stages. Sometimes it takes a while before changes become new habits. Adopting newer, healthier habits may protect you from severe health problems like obesity and diabetes. New habits, like healthy eating and regular physical activity, may also help you manage your weight and have more energy. After a while, if you stick with these changes, they may become part of your daily routine.
Mindful eating is being aware and observing where you are and what you are eating. We are all guilty of mindless eating. Understand your relationship with food by asking the following questions. Why are you eating? When are you eating? What are you eating? Once you understand your relationship with food, you can begin to take steps to heal it. Mindful eating takes time, dedication, and patience.
When it comes to toning your waistline, you need to make sure you have a good exercise routine and that you fuel your body with the right foods. I take on a more holistic approach to achieving a great midsection, implementing exercises other than just ab crunches to get my results. You can be a saint at the gym, but if you are not matching it with the right nutrients, then you may never get the flat midsection you desire.
Give your oven a rest. Heating food destroys its nutrients and natural enzymes, which is bad because proteins boost digestion and fight chronic disease. In short: When you cook it, you kill it. Also, switch up the dressings you are consuming. Raw fruits and vegetables have several health benefits. Headaches, allergies, and improvement in immunity and memory, arthritis and diabetes.
Exercise is not enough. Take the necessary steps to be more mindful of what you are eating. Tune in as we discuss some cardiovascular prevention tips that can help you clean up your diet, health and wellness needs.
