Acid Refux and Apple Cider Vinegar

      As you get older, certain health problems become more noticeable.  Things like bones hurting more often, you get tired more easy, and for me, acid reflux.  Now, I am no doctor, bur like anyone else, I've had my share of problems.  Home remedies sometimes work better than over the counter medicines.  Apple Cider Vinegar is one item that I have found to have more than one purpose.  One can use Apple Cider Vinegar for household cleaning, but it also is  a good health aid as well. Apple Cider Vinegar is said to help aid the digestive system in many ways.
      Most people that I have seen like to use a product called "Bragg," Apple Cider Vinegar. They say to make sure it is raw and unfiltered. Be careful when drinking Apple Cider Vinegar, though, it is very bitter, and very, very strong.  I can not drink it by itself.  I like to add honey and lemon to my Apple Cider Vinegar.  Some people have told me they like to add grape juice.  I also have tried mixing grapefruit juice in with my Apple Cider Vinegar since Grapefruit is also another good healthy food item to add to your every day diet. 
       I know that this is no " new" information, but I just wanted to "brag" on an item that is easily accessible and good for you as well.  This item has helped my acid reflux and I actually have been able to sleep a little better too! So, the next time you are at the grocery store or Wal-Mart, be sure to pick up a bottle of raw, unfiltered, Apple Cider Vinegar to add not only to your cleaning purposes, but to your diet as well.

Food For Thought

A journaling topic that Kim Erickson suggests is as following, " Write some things that happened this week that got in the way of your having a joyful day."   Well,  honestly, I could sit down forever and talk about this topic.  It's these kind of affirmations that have really gotten me through the day.  I wish I had known about them when I was younger.  Middle School and High school might have been a little easier.  However, I never really had any bullies attack me then.  At that time, the only real bully was my inner-self.  I stayed positive and always tried to keep my mind on God and things that do not concern this world.  Happy places, quiet places, and dreaming about far off worlds usually kept my mind busy.   That is how it is today as well, but sometimes, having a reminder every now and then doesn't hurt.   Not everyone is going to be your friend, and not every one is going to send positive vibes.  Sometimes you have to do it yourself, you have to wake up thi

for Thursday

s   I have been reviewing products for a while now.  I usually try to pick items that I actually want to use on a day to day basis.  Excitingly, this is one of the recent items I earned in exchange for an honest", unbiased", opinion.  My opinion is that it is "awesome!"     I will use this bag every time I go to the gym to workout.  Of course, my definition of "working out," is not the same as everyone else's definition yet, but I am stepping  higher each time.  Having fancy gym attire is not required, but definitely very, very helpful.    I am sure that people will eventually get tired of hearing about this bag, I am proud to own it.  I would have paid the full amount for this bag.  It has many, many pockets and a place for your water bottle as well.  It not only can be used as a gym bag, but as a travel bag also.  I love the length of the shoulder strap.  The best part about the shoulder strap is the padding they added for extra support.    Thi

Ten Ways I Stay Motivated

1.  Start the day with prayer or meditation. 2. Brew a good cup of coffee. 3.  Go over my list of goals. 4.  Set new goals ones the old ones are accomplished. 5.  Listen to motivational podcasts or youtube videos. 6.  Read biographies of people who have survived cancer or some amazing trauma.  This helps to remind me that no problem is too big for God. 7.  I try to look in the mirror and say affirmations every morning.  Some of these affirmations are the same ones and some are different.  8. Try to keep a good, constant routine. 9.  Write or draw in my journal. 10.  Reward myself for accomplishments.  After all, you deserve it. Hope you have a wonderful week !!
