You Wanna Know How I've been Feeling
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! I have been hot flash free for over nine months. My energy level has shot through the roof. I attribute this to lots of prayer, healthy eating, exercising consistently, taking occasional herbs and getting plenty of sleep/rest.
Prayer really does change things. I pray on a daily basis. Yes, I pray more now than I ever did before. Matthew 7:7 says "Ask and it will be given to you, seek and you shall find, knock and the door will be opened to you". I pray when I am in need of a blessing but I also pray to thank God for being so awesome to me. "LIKE ONLY HE CAN"!!
My diet consists of fresh fruit and veggies. I absolutely love beans and lentils that are seasoned with herbs. Occasionally, I will have salmon that is either grilled or baked. I drink two liters of water daily sometimes adding fresh fruit and veggies. I try to stay away from fried food. Also, I've decreased starchy food such as white rice, potatoes, pasta and bread. (Yes you guys, the good ole stuff) Anyway, I feel great, so I won't complain.
I exercise four to five days a week. I just love doing pilates. It has me feeling wonderful and looking super toned. Sometimes, I'll run 3 to 4 miles to change up my routine.
Yes, there are herbs that I use to take that will knock the worst hot flash out. Stay tuned as I will discuss that at a later date.
Sleep is key to me feeling my absolute best. As long as I am getting good quality sleep at night, I feel refreshed and highly energized upon waking up in the morning. SLEEP IS LIFE.... Even if I have goals, I understand that its okay to close my eyes for a few hours and rest my body/mind.
