Happy New You!
During the holiday season through mid-January we often hear the phrase
"Happy New Year!" Too often, we focus on the to-do list we've
created for ourselves for the new year, and we forget about the most important
part of the phrase... "HAPPY!" If you've been feeling depressed
or lethargic, happiness may be the one gift you truly want for yourself this
year. And it's a gift you CAN give yourself. Unhappiness is a sign our lives are out of balance. |

10 Healthy Holiday Gift Ideas 1. The video-game lover: Xbox Kinect.($199 to
$250) The Kinect has motion-activated sensors so you can play video games
without a controller. Instead of sitting in a chair, you can get out of your
seat and jump, step and dance around — and, hopefully, get your heart rate
up.
2. The workaholic in your life: FitDesk bike.($200 to $290) Sitting at your desk all day adds extra pounds around your waist. Instead, pedal away while getting
some work done. The FitDesk Space-Saving Semi-Recumbent X Bike has a spot for
your laptop so you can type away while burning calories. |

Ideas
For AGreenChristmas
Christmas is a time for giving,
and a time for family. What a great opportunity to start a family tradition of
giving back to the earth and instilling the values of sustainable living to
your children, friends and community. Start an annual, earth-friendly Christmas
family tradition! It will also get you outdoors for a few hours to build an
appetite for the big dinner.
Family nature hike- a peaceful walk through
nature on Christmas day will be remembered and valued more than the score of
the football game. |

How
to have a healthy Thanksgiving without losing all the yummy flavors! by Kristen Mehendale
For the sake of our consciences, it helps to write
Thanksgiving off as ‘one day of indulgence,’ though as we all know, it usually
turns into a week of leftovers. When planning your Thanksgiving menu this year,
take a look at some of the traditional holiday dishes you make and see if you
can easily swap out the accepted, unhealthy ingredients for more natural and
health-promoting ones. |

NOVEMBER is...Good Nutrition Month! Check
back for weekly nutrition tips from Dr. Tom!
1.
Start
taking yourVitamin Duntil the summer sun is back.
2. Green
Tea: Instead of dousing your coffee with sugary hazelnut creamer and several
tablespoons of sugar, consider switching to green tea. Aside from helping to
prevent a host of diseases, it also helps to reduce overall cholesterol levels,
and can even increase metabolism. If needed, adding a tablespoon of honey to an
8-ounce cup makes it sweeter on the palate. |

The Seasons Are Changing AndCHIROPRACTIC Care Boosts Immunity!  The nervous system and immune system are hardwired and work together to create optimal responses for the body to adapt and heal appropriately. Neural dysfunctions due to spinal misalignments are stressful to the body and cause abnormal changes that lead to a poorly coordinated immune response. Chiropractic adjustments have been shown to boost the coordinated responses of the nervous system and immune system. |
