As an example, let's say you get a bad cold every winter.



What do you say to yourself when the flu shot commercials

tell you that there's no escape. Rush to get the "shot" or

else. Even while watching these "warnings" on t.v. you see

yourself sick and can almost feel flu symptoms manifesting.

Unless you turn your thoughts to happy, healthy things,

the suggestive influence of the media's concern for your

health will have the power over you. Why do I say that?

Well, let's have a look at why you may be apt to take other

people's advice, including that of your doctor.

Are you eating right? Are you willing to invest some time

and money in products and supplements that will give you

optimum health - naturally? Or are you the type who thinks

you're too busy and want to eat only those things that

taste good?

It's so simple and easy to just go for the "shot" and

forget all the rest. After all, there are so many

conflicting arguments for and against nutrients,

supplements and health risks, aren't there?

Consider this. Instead of listening to all those voices

out there, who do not know a thing about you, how about

talking to yourself?

Do you realize that what you say is super important? Those

words out there in cyberspace are taken all too often as

the truth. Why? Someone may be speaking the fact that some

sort of research has been done and you subsequently tell

yourself that must be authentic. That is... until another

news item announces that this year's flu strain is not

what the experts had anticipated, and the wrong serum

caused more severe symptoms and many more deaths than other

years.

Take your power back! You are much more in control of your

own health than you may realize! Train your mind to look at

all the positive sides of life. You do not HAVE to get the

flu every year - even if you did so all the previous years,

like clockwork. You can just as easily say to yourself:

"this year I'm going to empower my immune system with lots

of great, healthy nutrition. I am going to exercise more

and look at the bright side of life."

Seems very simplistic, doesn't it? But, really it is very

simple. A mindset is really another word for attitude. An

attitude is basically nothing but a conversation with

yourself. You can be saying: "I don't feel like trying

something new, or getting another opinion." On the other

hand, you could love yourself enough to say: "Hey, I want

to be healthy and feel good. Let's see how I can boost my

immunity."

You can choose to feel better and happier by optimizing

your nutrition. Consider that the options of medicine very

often are the consequences of an unhealthy mindset.

Your power lies in the amount of control you give yourself

over what you choose to believe. A healthy mindset produces

a healthy appetite for what is good for you. After all, the

Bible says that God:

"satisfieth thy mouth with good things, so that thy youth

is renewed like the eagle's." (Ps. 103: 5)
