As we bring the countdown to an end. Let us all reflect on what we have to be thankful for this year. Some of us have lost jobs, relationships with significant others, friends, financial turmoil or health, but one thing remains, if you are able to read this last countdown right now, then you are blessed. Why you may ask? Because we live in a country where we can access the internet freely, we have our eyes to read and our hands to type to search for an article. That is the beginning, we are breathing and alive!
So today make it special, tell someone that you are blessed today because you know them and that makes you feel great. Share the Christmas cheer not just today but every day to come.
We hope that you have enjoyed these 24 days of Countdown to Christmas.
Come back on Christmas day for a very special article written by a guest blogger, you don’t want to miss this story.

Merry Christmas from our house to yours. May you always remember that the reason for the season is the birth of the baby Jesus.

As things begin to wind down, take a moment to grab the kids and the dog and walk around the neighborhood to see the Christmas lights instead of driving. This will get you out of the house, allow you to see neighbors that you may have never met and had some fresh air to breathe and establish family memories.

Ugh now three days before Christmas and a cold sore appears on your mouth, what? Stay calm, stress will cause these things to pop up. The best thing to do is to start taking care of yourself early on, we know that the holiday season can be a source of stress for many, but we need to remember that when we are run down we are susceptible to colds. Some helpful hints, good hand washing, antibacterial everywhere you go, if you start to feel sick, drink Echinacea tea with honey and lemon and take your zinc and vitamin c tablets( check with your doctor first to be sure that you can take these). To take care of the cold sore see some remedies here from peppermint oil, to vanilla and more. https://draxe.com/cold-sores/

December 21st is the shortest day of the year and also the first day of winter. As the days get shorter and the nights get longer we are okay during the holiday season with that but after a while, the lack of sunlight can send some people off into a depressed mode if they work long hours and get up in the dark to go to work and come back in the dark. Make your home brighter this winter season and light some candles when you are home, whether real candles or the battery operated ones. The goal is to create a warm and bright indoor feeling. If you are able to get out at lunch time, do so and get some sun as you walk outside, the benefits will do you good.

The holidays are here starting with Thanksgiving and lingering through New Year’s and sometimes Valentine’s Day and Easter! There goes the diet! We all stress about what we eat and whether we should eat something or not whether for health reasons or body image reason. The key thing to remember is that diets come and go, the best way to handle things is learning what to eat and in what moderation to eat it in. For instance if you know that you love cookies during Christmas, have 1 or 2 as opposed to the 6-7 in one sitting. Eat you regular meals and if you are eating out and something that you normally do not eat, try to be selective and sample verses overloading the plate with that favorite food that is not good for your health. If you sample in smaller portions that which you like but cannot eat, then you will not feel like you are depriving yourself of the food but at the same time not overloading yourself where the next morning you wake up feeling like a truck ran over you from the sugar high.
Happy healthy eating with a sampling of your favorite foods in moderation!
