Nowadays everyone appears to be stressed - at home and at work. Families, friends, coworkers, bosses, health, and finances often seem to add stress to our lives that stops us from enjoying what we have. Stress affects not only our emotions and thought processes, but also our physical health and general well-being. Depression and anxiety are on the rise and half of all Americans are projected to face mental challenges at some point in their lives. For many decades, medication and psychotherapy have been the way to go to treat psychological issues. If we look deeper we will see that we are treating symptoms rather than the cause of the problem, which seems to be the norm in Western medicine. An increasing number of studies and health care providers point out the importance of nutrition and exercise, not only for our physical but also for our mental health. There is a strong body-brain connection, and if we do not feed our bodies well, we also starve our brains, leading to mood disorders, dysfunctional thought patterns, and cognitive impairment. If we do not take care of our physical health, our mental health is going to suffer just the same. This book offers an overview of how unhealthy diet, lack of self-care, toxic relationships, chronic stress, negative thought processes, and a lack of spirituality affect us physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually and how to achieve more health and happiness by establishing balance in our lives. The goal of this book is to help readers change their life by making happiness a choice and learning how to make healthy yet simple food selections, improve self-care, deal with stress, control their thoughts and feelings, and simply enjoy their life.
