BLOG: Feeling Full After The Big Feast?

 

Make It A Healthy Holiday Season!

Whether you are a healthy eater or not temptation is everywhere. Somehow, we learned that FOOD IS LOVE and we either over-feed others with our food offerings or we overeat ourselves. We eat to celebrate, and we eat to cover up what is lacking in life. Of course, the holiday season emphasizes food consumption to the max and there is little chance to escape the possibility that we may get caught up in the OVER-CONSUMPTION Escapades Of The Season.   Although, my Thanksgiving contained an assortment of healthy foods consumed, I too could not resist enjoying some sweets treats and an extra helping of sweet potatoes that had left me feeling a little over-extended!   The result had left me feeling a little full and heavy! This can be the start of turning up the food cravings. Consume more sweets, more starch foods, and more and more. Before you know it you are dreaming about that bread you thought you could eat just a little of, and all that cheese that you just can't stop thinking about now. And worse, when can I have more wine and chocolate!   The way I 'RESET' is to have a COLONIC! It is interesting that over the last week I have encountered several people suffering with bronchitis. For me this is a no brainer. As soon as you start to feel run down, achy, and getting sick you get a colonic!   CLEAN OUT!   HEALTH BEGINS IN THE COLON! Our body takes a real hit when we overwhelm our digestive system with more food then it can process and make it rich food and drink and that adds up to a real BIG Stress. And what do you get? You get a congested digestive system that is overwhelmed with decomposing food, an unhappy liver and gallbladder and an immune system that can't keep up. This translates to a runny nose, exhaustion, a gloomy mood, a cycle of caffeine and sweets and wishing you could feel better again with a 'maybe I will start a better diet tomorrow' intention. Will you? Probably not. Will you after having a colonic? Most likely YES!   Am I a PARTY POOPER? No. I party hard by dancing, playing, sharing and celebrating! And am I a GOOD POOPER? YES! Indeed A Reason To Party!   I hope to inspire you to always go for an extraordinary life and taking care of yourself will give you clarity of mind, a positive attitude, more energy then you thought could be possible, a youthful appearance and to feel comfortable living in this body that was graciously given to you.   Make the choice of Health this holiday season. Visit us at Gravity East Village and RESET yourself with a COLONIC session. We offer Gravity method colon hydro therapy sessions that allow a gentle flow of water moving simultaneously in and out of the body that makes for an effective easy 'release' experience. We have two treatment rooms, and state of the art water filtration. Your therapist can discuss with you healthy option ideas to improve your diet, inspire you to take action and discuss better digestive health. Lighten up in your core, give your immune system a boost, and support your entire body by removing toxic overload. Take care of yourself this holiday season to end the year feeling and looking your best!   Enjoy a Far Infrared Sauna session at Gravity. You can have a private session of 30 minutes or 60 minutes or share our lovely sauna with a friend. Enjoy the color therapy lights and ambient soothing music if desired. A sauna session will increase circulation, increase immunity, give you that healthy gorgeous skin that everyone will notice, and is a great relaxing activity to enjoy.   How about a Therapeutic Massage? This is the perfect time to give yourself the gift of pure relaxation. Barbara and Marcela are wonderful licensed Massage therapists that split their time between working at Gravity and at a Chiropractor's office. That means that they are able to treat those tight difficult spots that need a little extra love and they each have a wealth of experience and know how to make you feel transformed.   EFT - Emotional Freedom Techniques with Julia Lucas is a tremendous way to learn how to deal with life's stresses. Having some charge about something? Or feeling anxiety or negative emotions?   EFT is a wonderful technique that can help you deal with any stuck emotions, and anxiety.   COME TO GRAVITY AND MAKE THE END OF THE YEAR A HEALTHY CELEBRATION!   Learn more about our services by visiting our website.

BLOG: 'DONNA'S SELF CARE TIPS TO MAKE IT A HEALTHY, FUN HOLIDAY SEASON!'

No matter how you slice it we are embarking on a time of the year when it is easy to feel stressed out! There is so much to do, lots of social engagements, busy stores to visit and not enough time to keep up with it all. We know we are supposed to be enjoying the season, but often if we are truly honest with ourselves there is a little child within kicking and screaming the whole way through to the New Year.   Here are some of my top picks to help you cope and to feel great all season!   Celebrate Each Day - Make a list each day or find a friend to share your 'Gratitudes.' Even if you are only grateful for your inhale and exhale make it a gratitude. Doing this as a practice each day helps you to tune into your spiritual self and to connect to your inner truth.   Take Time For Self Care - Make time even if it is a hard choice to make yourself numero uno. If you take care of yourself then you will have the energy and bright attitude to give to others. This is the secret to really enjoying the holiday. Being a martyr or sacrificing where you are running on empty is old thinking. You will dry up and probably spend the whole holiday complaining with everyone consoling you. Or worse you will just give off a pissed off and exhausted vibe, and everyone you encounter will want to keep a distance. Make time for exercise, sleep, meditation, visit GEV for a colonic, massage, or a sauna session. Remember to drink a green juice, green smoothie and to take your vitamins!   Lift Your Spirits! - Perhaps, you are unhappy in some way? Make time to dance. There is no better way to change a gloomy mood to a brighter outlook then by getting up and shaking your booty. Put those ear phones on and give it a groove in your cubicle! Repeat as often a s desired!   Prepare To Say 'NO' - Do you have social obligations that are not your pleasure? Make an appearance. Stay ONE hour and leave. You showed up graced them with your beautiful smile and well wishes and when you are feeling it is enough then leave. Honor yourself.   Temptation - Plan ahead. Make food, and bring food offerings. When you are at the party you will bring the salad or vegetable dish. Raw desserts are delicious and much healthier then whatis normally offered. Bring enough for yourself and share with everyone your delicious recipe. You will be the hit of the party!   Fill your belly with vegetables. If you desire to eat a forbidden extravagance then eat a plate full of veggies first and you will eat less of the unhealthy stuff.   Often times, a taste or two will do. Chew well. Savory it. You don't need to eat the whole thing. Really.   Try to follow Food Combining Principles as much as possible. Or at the very least wait a good many hours before having dessert. Don't eat and then go to sleep!   Beverages - Can be a 'positive' or a 'negative' experience. They may add up to a tremendous amount of calories that will put on extra undesirable holiday weight on your gorge ous body! Best healthy choices are: water, coconut water, kombucha, herbal tea, green juice, chai, lemon water and nut milk. Drink plenty of water if you indulge in drinking alcohol.   Pull a healthy recipe book off your shelf and make something yummy!   Consequences - Be conscious. Remember how bloated or exhausted you felt previously when you indulged in consuming rich food and drink. Was it really worth it? Probably not. Find anotherway to have fun besides stuffing your face. Play with children, dance, play a game, volunteer or exercise. Overeating is a reality for many people at this time of year. Remember to get up andmove!   Those Little Nasty Comments - There will always be that relative or co- worker that sees your healthy eating as a threat. Your innocent salad choice or declining a drink may cause a reaction from an insecure person to become a bully. My response? Make them right. ME: "Yes, that's right I am having a salad and not drinking. You are so right." Then, you Own it. ME: "And it so serves me to eat this way because I have so much energy and I feel great!" And Finish with: ME: "Why would I want to deprive myself of anything less then fabulous!" Then, walk away or change the subject!!   Don't Preach - You may be a health enthusiast and want everyone to join your team of healthy living. Being with family and hearing updates on illnesses and physical struggles may push your buttons. Most people that inquire about your healthy lifestyle will feel 'wronged' or diminished in their lifestyle choices. Have compassion for where others are and do not impose your opinions. If you encounter someone sincerely interested in how you live healthfully offer that they callyou to discuss diet another time.   Pack The Supplements - Carry with you digestive enzymes, probiotics or whatever other supplements that support your body. A helpful aid is to have Young Living Peppermint oil on hand just in case you are feeling a little too full or bloated. Then, have a colonic!! J   Make It A Special Time - Add your special touch to the holiday to make yourself feel good. Dress up, diffuse essential oils, light candles, eat off beautiful plates and glassware, decorateyour space, clean your house, have a manicure, get your hair done, or watch a favorite feel good show/film/comedy/sports. Do it for your pleasure and everyone will benefit!   Recover - At Gravity East Village we tend to get very busy after the holiday helping people to feel better. All the excess eating, drinking, and stresses takes its toll. Many people get sick, feel heavy and bloated, or just feel tired all the time. We hope to see you during the holiday season to help with 'damage control.' Traveling by c ar or plane can affect digestion as well. Come visit us for a gravity method colonic session, therapeutic massage, infrared sauna session, coffee enema session, or EFT session to keep you on track and to feel great! Look and Feel your Best!   Have a Happy Holiday From All Of Us at Gravity East Village!   Best, Donna Perrone Founder, Gravity East Village Inc.     Visit Our Website To Learn More About Our Services, FAQ, Bios Of All Our Therapies, Cool Videos, and More!
