Power of Gratitude and Your Health


I decided this morning to take a break from talking about diets, food plans, disease,cells,  exercise, sleep, super foods, antioxidants, water and everything to do with enhancing health or perfecting body weight.

I want to talk about the power of gratitude. So powerful is this technique , that it is being used in the cure of serious diseases like cancer, depression, obesity and can be applied to the most common cold, cough, fever or body flu.

It can help you achieve the body you want, that perfect weight and rejuvenate the health in your trillions of cells.

Today, instead of focusing on all of the above, focus on what you HAVE, in regards to your health.

Be grateful and offer thanks for - 

The use of your arms and legs

Your eyesight, sense of smell, hearing, sense of touch.

The fact that you have the ability to work out.

The fact that you have the availability of good , clean food and water.

The fact that we have a very special gift, that is the gift of a new day and a chance to make our health better.

The fact that billions and billions of cells in your body are working to keep you alive.

That you have energy to get through the day

The fact that things are easier for our generation in terms of foods, exercises, knowledge availability and variety.

The fact that even if we are sick, we are alive and by being grateful for that, we will heal.

When we constantly complain or talk negatively about our health and weight, all we do is make the situation worse by attracting more negativity.
We create enormous stress in our cells and minds and that prevents us from achieving our goal.

"The degree that you are grateful for your health is the exact degree that your health will magically increase,
and the degree that you are not grateful for your health will be the exact degree your health will decrease.

being grateful for your health ensures that you will continue to receive more health, and at the same time it eliminates stress and tension in the body and mind.
Scientific research studies have shown that stress and tension are the root of many diseases. Studies have also revealed that people who practice gratitude heal faster." ( Rhonda Bryne)

When we are grateful for our bodies, health and lives, we will not continuously abuse our bodies with alcohol,
smoking, junk food , drugs and medicines. We will do it all, but in moderation, out of respect of our bodies.
Anything other than that is being disrespectful and ungrateful for the gift of our body and life, and it will deteriorate.

Don't think ' Fat thoughts'. If you think you are fat, you will be. Instead focus on and offer
gratitude that you have the ability to get fit and focus on picturing yourself at the weight you want to be.
Offer thanks after every workout you do, or every clean meal you eat, as each of those things are a step forward to get you to your ideal weight.

Most people create a disease or a problem in their minds through negative thinking, fear, lack of belief and stress

Give thanks before and after every meal, bless it to make you healthy, to nourish your cells and to keep you at your ideal weight.

You can eat an ice-cream with an extremely negative attitude, that it will make you fat, that your
nutritionist told you not to eat it, that Madonna or your fav Bollywood star don't eat it to maintain
their figures and it will make you fat. But try eating it with gratitude, love and enjoy every bit of it,
being thankful for the taste, for the people who made it, for the ability to afford it, and you will not put on weight.
It's true and you should try it. You will be a happier and healthier person. 

Each of us have the opportunity to be grateful for some part of our health and even the
technique of offering ' thanks' in advance, for example if you want to get slimmer,
you offer thanks in advance that you are slimmer, you offer thanks in advance for your cholesterol levels to come down,
you change your ' shift' to a new dimension, which makes you feel super powerful, in control and happier,,and what more, you achieve what you want.

Start practicing  gratitude right now. Example:Offer thanks for your eyes, since you can read this mail.

I offer thanks for the ability to write, share and have so many people read my mails.

With Gratitude,
