Are You Underperforming?
Are You Underperforming?
Does your boss notice you are not performing as well as you should? Are you just too tired or feeling unwell to “be on top of your game”?
According to research “Unhealthy workers average just 49 productive hours of work per month compared to 143 hour per month for the healthy ones”.
Are you one of the unhealthy workers? Has your boss noticed yet? If you run your own business is this going to be the breaking point?
Never mind the recession, being productive can affect the successful outcome of your business. Your health and well-being are central to feeling well enough to achieve in today’s competitive business landscape.
Don’t let being unwell stop you from achieving your potential.
Some of the troublesome signs that your un-wellness may be impacting on your productivity and making your days a struggle rather than a joy are:
• Food Cravings,
• Fatigue,
• Overweight (or underweight),
• Digestive disturbances,
• Constipation
• IBS (Irritable Bowel syndrome)
• Poor coordination
• Infertility,
• skin rashes
These are a few of the signs of sensitivity to just one common food!
There are four main culprits when it comes to common foods that frequently trigger food sensitivities and intolerances. These are Fructose (fruit sugars), Lactose (milk sugar) Gluten (found in wheat and other grains) and Yeast.
The strange thing is that often you crave the very food that is causing you problems. Many people report that after the first week or two of avoiding troublesome foods, their cravings disappear. Along with the passing of craving the energy levels rise, the digestion settles and ideal weight become an easy norm.
The common trigger foods may appear to be difficult to avoid, yet once you feel the wellness that comes from avoiding them you will have no trouble saying NO to problem foods.
Tom, a 9 years old with learning difficulties and behaviour problems at school, along with this, socialization problems. For Tom this was the biggest problem, he couldn’t make friends. During his consultation with his mum, we agreed that certain foods may be contributing to these problems. Tom agreed to avoid them for one month, he was also given Herbal Tonics and Flower Essences to calm and focus while detoxifying his body of the harmful effects of these trigger foods. When tom returned one month later he reported this: He avoided the trigger foods, even at a Birthday party where it was tempting. He had no trouble with this as he had already begun to feel his previous problems lift. His school reported improved concentration, behaviour and best of all the other children seemed to be accepting him more. There was no way Tom was going to eat those trigger foods again!
Another recent example was Ruth, who had overweight problems; she exercised daily, BUT had major carbohydrate cravings. She just could not control the urge to eat bread, cake, etc each afternoon. This she felt was the main reason she could not lose those 20+ kgs! Three weeks after changing her diet to a healthy natural eating pattern, with Herbal Tonics and Flower Essence Ruth felt like a new women. The cravings had gone completely, she felt strong and energised and she actually thinks I performed some kind of magic!
It’s not magic at all, it’s natural for your body to react to trigger foods and the overload they put on your organs and systems. Remove the trigger foods, support the organs and systems with natural remedies and the result is NATURAL. Natural, normal, vital health is the outcome and ideal weight is natural and normal for a healthy person.
The first step is to identify trigger foods, creating a new way of nourishing your health. The next step is to strengthen and detoxify the organs and systems that have suffered the toxic effects of eating foods that your body cannot process. Organs such as those associated with digestion and the immune system. Rejuvenation is the natural consequence of the first two steps and builds your resistance to future health problems. This stage is where your vitality really increases.
The unhealthy fatigue, digestive disturbance and brain fog that kept you from achieving your utmost will then be a distant memory and you focus on growing your career or business.
