Mrs. Grateful to-do-list

My sister keeps feeding me with useful inspiration. I´m overwhelmed with all the changes I need to make in my life. I´m scared I forget. So what to do? Make a list! I will priorities later.

1. Learn yoga (so that I can be more like this little old lady)
2. Learn to love myself (so I can be co-committed like Gwyneth Paltrow)
3. Take care of my body (with a little help from my friend):
  • Drink plenty of clean water, at least eight to ten glasses of filtered water a day.
  • Keep your bowels moving, at least once or twice a day. And if you can’t get going, then you need some help and this can include taking two tablespoons of ground flax seeds, taking acidophilus and extra magnesium capsules in the form of magnesium citrate. If you have any chronic diseases or problems you have to be careful about taking supplements, you should work with your doctor.
  • You should also eat organic produce and animal products to eliminate the toxins in our food.
  • You should eat eight to ten servings of colorful fruits and vegetables and specifically include, every day, the family of the cruciferous vegetables, broccoli, collards, kale, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, kohlrabi, as well as the garlic family, garlic and onions, which help increase sulfur in the body and help detoxification.
  • Avoid stimulants, sedatives and drugs, such as caffeine, nicotine, and try to reduce alcohol intake.
  • Exercise five days a week with focus on conditioning of your cardiovascular system, strengthening exercises and stretching exercises.
  • Get rid of the white menace, which is white flour and white sugar.
  • Sweat profusely at least three times a week, using a sauna, steam or a detox bath.
  • Take a high-quality multivitamin and mineral.
  • Relax deeply every day, to get your nervous system in a state of calm, rest and relaxation.
4. Look over this list of 100 ways to live a better life and adjust it to me.

I´m sure I can find a lot more stuff to add to this list at a later time, but meanwhile I´ll appreciate life, enjoy and keep it simple.
