If you are lacking in this area, won't you please take some time now to pray over this?
What is the best time to set aside for God?
Where will you meet with Him?
Laughter IS the Best Medicine
When you fill out your daily journal on this 60 Day challenge, you will ask yourself daily if you remembered to laugh.
Laughter is truly the best medicine and most of us don't do enough of it!
Here's what you get when you laugh...
1. an increase in endorphins, your body's natural painkiller
2. a decrease in epinephrine, your body's stress hormone
3. stimulation of the body's immune system
4. cardiovascular exercise
5. enhanced alertness and memory
6. mood elevation
And, laughter burns calories! A Vanderbilt University study showed that you could lose up to 4 pounds in a year with 15 minutes of laughter a day. What a fun way to lose weight!
So, be sure to plan a laugh a day!
Stress Management
Just as laughter can help you keep you healthy and help you lose weight, stress can kill you. More and more studies are confirming that chronic, unmanaged, negative stress kills. And it's a slooow, painful death.
Uncontrolled stress leads to:
1. weight gain
2. food cravings
3. mood swings
4. fatigue
5. hyperglycemia
6. increased abdominal fat- the killer fat!
7. emotional eating
8. heart disease
9. depression
Researchers are discovering daily how damaging stress can be.
So, for success on the Hallelujah Diet and during this 60 day challenge, plan ways to manage your stress. And make it a life-long habit!
