Good Air

Proper breathing is life-changing. Inhale deeply through your nose, expanding your abdomen, then your chest. Hold for a few seconds. Exhale through your mouth, contracting your abdomen. Your exhale should be 1–2 times longer than your inhale. Repeat this on purpose a few times daily.
Clean Air Matters: Consider using Nature’s Sunshine Boomerang for air sanitization.

Good Rest

Burnout is real. Prioritize 6–8 hours of sleep every night. A rested you is a better you.

Good Water

Hydration is vital. Drink half your body weight in ounces of water daily. Pure, clean water fuels your body and brain. Stay hydrated!

Good Food

Upgrade your nutrition with live foods:

  • Whole grains
  • Nuts and seeds
  • Green leafy vegetables
  • Fresh fruits

Avoid processed foods. Keep it simple, nourishing your body with the best nature has to offer.

Are You Digesting What You Eat?

Enzymes are essential for breaking down food and preparing it for absorption. Support your digestion with high-quality digestive enzymes.

Now, Absorb Those Nutrients!

  • Take a probiotic like Bifidophilus or Acidophilus to enhance gut health.

EFA’s Are Essential

Support your body with Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs):

  • Omega-3s
  • Flaxseed Oil
  • Krill Oil

Is Your pH in Range?

Maintain an optimal pH around 7.5 to support cellular nutrient absorption. Learn about acid vs. alkaline foods—you truly are what you eat!

Practice Good Hygiene

The golden rule: Never put on your skin what you wouldn’t ingest.
