Hello !
Thanksgiving is right around the corner!
How do you celebrate?
As you enjoy the season here are a few tips to enjoying the buffets of the holidays without completely ignoring our health-o-meters!
- If you are hosting, suggest to those coming to bring something "healthier" to the event. Letting family and friends know ahead that you would appreciate their help to keep to your health goals can help.
- If you are a guest, may I suggest you eat a healthy meal at home so you are free to "graze" at your guests'. Also be on the look-out for other things you can enjoy that have nothing to do with food.
- If you are home alone by choice or circumstance I do hope you still feel the love of the season in the form of a thoughtful word or gesture. I suggest as you celebrate perhaps in solitude that you enjoy other ways to self-soothe outside of food, like listening to music, laughing at old albums or reaching out to a friend via zoom, facetime, google duo, whatsapp...
Happy thanksgiving to you and yours!
From your Livingspring Medicals Family!
