Healthy Resolutions for
Wellness All Year Round
by Clarisa Vargas, HHP, CNHP, NC, CCH
• When you wake up in the morning, give thanks to
the source for the new day and the gift of being alive.• Do some stretching and breathing exercises
every morning.• Before you shower, dry brush your entire body and
scalp to exfoliate dead skin cells.• Try to spend each day as follows: 8 hours for sleep;
8 hours for work; and 8 hours to take care of yourself
and your family.• Drink water – half of your body weight in ounces per
day at room temperature between meals, in small
doses at a time.• Chew your food thoroughly; it stimulates gastric
juices to facilitate absorption of nutrients.• Avoid cold drinks immediately before, during and
after meals, as they constrict digestion.• Wash your hands before eating and before and
after using the bathroom.• Eat clean, nourishing foods, free of pesticides,
hormones, and antibiotics.• Keep the body’s four channels of elimination
(bowels, kidneys, skin, and lungs) free of congestion.• At the end of the day, find a comfortable, quiet
place for meditation, reflection, and planning.• At night, put yourself to bed like a baby. Turn off all
appliances and enjoy a good night’s sleep.For wellness advice and guidance on how to
