You want to be healthy, but don’t know where to start.

You sort of know what’s important, but not actually how do make any changes.

You know how to make changes, but your family is very definitely NOT on board.

It’s too overwhelming.  Help!

You can follow instructions, if only someone would just tell you what to do and how to do it……

Do any of these statements describe you in your quest for health?

I’m going to introduce you to the

10  Simple Steps to TRANSFORM Your Family’s Health

These are what I believe to be the ten most important (first) actions you can take to take charge of your own health.

I don’t know about you, but I am easily overwhelmed if I try to make too many changes at once. Since health is something that comes over time from lifestyle changes that are maintained, the best way to get the benefit from this list is to pick ONE*** thing to work on, and do it for a week, or even an entire month, before moving on to the next one.

It is better to make small changes over time then to try to do too much and crash and burn. That won’t help you at all!

Over the coming weeks, I will elaborate on these 10 steps and give more details about each one, including why it’s important and practical steps for implementation. I’m even working on my very first Ebook, on this same topic, which will be available FREE to anyone who signs up for the FamilyNatural Newsletter.

(So if you haven’t registered for our newsletter, do so RIGHT NOW on the left sidebar)

For now, just read over the list and evaluate where you are now, and think about which one/s would be the easiest to start with.

By the way, the steps are SIMPLE. That does not mean that they are EASY. If you look at the list and feel overwhelmed, just remember that I will show you how to take babysteps to get there.

10  Simple Steps to TRANSFORM Your Family’s Health

1. Drink Water, Only Water, and Enough Water
   
2. Get Vitamin D (through sunshine and inexpensive supplements)
   
3. Eat Fresh Fruits & Veggies (I’ll tell you the 2 easy ways to get them into your diet)
   
4. Get Enough Sleep + pray/meditate/relax. (Down time is necessary for a positive mental attitude, which is necessary for health! And if I can find time for it with 5 kids, so can you!)
5. Exercise (you don’t need to join a gym. As little as 15 minutes a day can make a big difference!)
6. Switch to Whole Grain
   
7. Limit Sugar and other sweeteners
   
8. Limit Dairy & Meat (however much you eat these, eat them less frequently and in smaller portions)
9. Avoid Eating Chemicals  such as MSG,corn syrup, or anything with a long name (if you don’t know what it is….don’t eat it!)
10. Get Chiropractic Care for Wellness (It’s not just for a sore back or neck…I’ll explain why)

I was invited to be a guest on WellWithU’s weekly radio show yesterday on BlogTalkRadio. We had a lot of fun, I presented the 10 steps, explaining just a little about each one. (I also answered questions about managing my crazy life and more….) If you missed the live show, you can listen to the archived show here:

*** If you or anyone in your family has any health issues or serious concerns, you need to cover more ground in a shorter time. You do not have the luxury of moving slowly; your body needs changes NOW so that it can heal. In this case, do as much as you can as soon as you can.

Did you know that it’s not just what you eat, but what you eat together? Even really healthy food, when combined improperly with other really healthy food can cause indigestion, heartburn, gas, bloating, cramps, general malaise, fatigue, and more. Alternatively, proper food combining causes you to digest and assimilate the most nutrition out of what you eat.

My friends over at WellWithU.com host a BlogTalkRadio show every Monday at 2pm EST.
