Boost Your Immune System Part 2: Stress, Lack of Sleep, & Toxicity

Welcome back to this three-part series on Immunity! I want to do everything possible to make you both knowledgeable about the products that dōTERRA has to offer you, but also give you the tools to reclaim your own health and wellness. In addition to poor nutrition and lack of exercise, there are several other factors that can compromise your immune system. If you reclaim control of these areas of your life, you will greatly increase your body’s ability to ward of these immune detractors. Getting a good night’s sleep, reducing the amount of stress in your life, and reducing the amount of toxins in your body and life will only free up the effort that your body may be currently putting into keeping these systems in check. dōTERRA gives you a variety of essential oils and blends that will enable your body to rebalance and recalibrate itself so that it can properly protect your immune system.

5 Ways to Boost a Healthy Metabolism

Every last one of us wants to look and feel our best, and we’ve all likely tried a laundry list of techniques to stay healthy, manage weight and feel great every day. If your metabolism isn’t functioning optimally, you simply won’t have the means to do this. Maybe you’ve tried diets, exercise regimens, or even weight loss pills to no avail. None of these will be of any benefit if the metabolic processes and hormones aren’t functioning as they were meant to. As a functional practitioner, my goal is to address the root cause of issues rather than symptoms. So rather than trying to achieve a goal being focused on the result, let’s focus on the root metabolic issues. I am not going to recommend a particular diet or a single exercise routine. Instead, I want to focus on concepts that you can incorporate into your daily routine, and compliment your other healthy habits, for long-term, sustainable solutions to improve how you look and feel. Let’s take a look at 5 of the best ways we can all master our metabolism, without turning to quick fixes or synthetic solutions.

Get More Energy With These Top 3 Habits
