Did you know that there are so many ways to help promote wellness and keep you functioning optimally? You may know our favorite way (hint: involves friendly needles) but check out some other ways to help promote wellness!
Here are a few easy pointers on how you can support and promote your own health anytime:
- Sleep. Early to bed, early to rise, makes a person healthy, wealthy and wise. Go to bed early and if possible, wake up after the sun appears in the morning. Extra sleep will also benefit you if feel as though you are coming down with something. If you do become ill, naps may help you recover faster.
- “C” it. Load up on Vitamin C and other multivitamins. These can help support your health.
- Surround yourself with friends and family. If you can gather around a fire, all the merrier.
- Water, water everywhere. Drink water. Every cell of your body requires this liquid gold to keep it lubricated and running smoothly.
- Avoid the consumption of ice cream and iced beverages. If possible, drink liquids at room temperature. Too many colds foods, especially during the colder months, can disrupt your digestion.
- Stress. Try to avoid it as much as possible. If you can’t, adopt habits that will enable you to de-stress, such as meditation, yoga, dance, reading, acupuncture, or painting.
- Exercise. You have heard it a thousand times, exercise, exercise, exercise. There is no substitute for the health-promoting benefits of this easy task. Get up to 20 minutes of heart pumping exercise daily.
- Take herbs that support the immune function. Astragalus, Osha root, Reishi and Shitake mushrooms are helpful. These have been used for thousands of years by acupuncturists to keep people healthy and strong.
Last but not least: come in for acupuncture treatments. Acupuncture works extremely well for curbing acute as well as chronic pain but also as a tune up to stimulate the healing capacity of your body. At Starting Point, we specialize in treating chronic and complex conditions such as neuropathy, fibromyalgia, infertility, PCOS, and failed back surgery. There is hope for pain-free living!
