Our body is precious. It is our vehicle for awakening. Treat it with care. ♥
~Buddha
i know i have not been treating my body very nice lately. it seems like the more i work, the less i take care of myself. something you can relate to?
this weekend i made a promise to myself about getting back into my routines of drinking one glas of lemon water first thing in the morning, taking one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar a day, a face mask once a week, running 2-3 times a week and finally i want to start reading a new book (and this book has been waiting for me for quite some time now).
what’s with the lemon water and vinegar you may ask. well, a couple of years ago we went 100% raw (we were already eating plant based), but to get a good start we signed up for a 30 day raw start meal plan with young and raw.com and in that plan they suggested one glas of lemon juice to start your day. lemon is alkalining and full of vitamin-c – a booster for your immune system, helps fight viral infections, boost your energy and a lot more. read here to find out more.
drinking raw apple cider vinegar is similar to the lemon juice a true health booster. the raw apple cider vinegar improves digestion, strengthen your immune system and helps detoxification. two teaspoons in a glass of water with my lunch is all i do. it is important to use the raw, unpasteurized apple cider vinegar to get all the benefits though. the raw version contains valuable minerals, live enzymes, amino acids and much more. you can find out more here.
