An Apple A Day


With the holidays creeping up, our plates are not only filled with extra errands and tasks to be sure all runs smoothly, they are also filled with treats filled with extra sugar, and extra calories.



I know, for me, when things get stressful, there is nothing like the comfort of chocolate and all things carbs!



To add to that, it seems the more we add to our schedules, to get things done, and spending excess amounts of our money on gifts, the less time we take to spend on ourselves, and staying healthy.



We cannot get everything done in one day, and great health doesn't happen over night; but taking things one step at a time, and one day at a time, can make a huge difference, in our wellbeing, overall. We always heard our parents reminding us of the saying "An Apple a Day keeps the doctor away."



And, when it comes down to it, this saying does ring true for many things. Anything, over time, not looked at or taken care of, can add up to major problems in the end.So, if we can be sure to make good choices, as best we can, on a daily basis, we are investing in ourselves, and our future.



Take time to breathe, sit still and be in peace, this holiday season.You can find the magic in silence, that cannot be heard in the noise of the hustle and bustle. And be sure to treat yourself to a few delicious mouth watering morsels along the way!
