As we enter a new year, it’s a time to reflect, reset, and focus on changes that can lead to better lives for ourselves and our families. This year, consider making a resolution that could transform your health, your beliefs, and your future: stop outsourcing your health and beliefs and take control through education, research, and informed decision-making.
Why This Resolution Matters
Your Health Is Your Responsibility
For too long, we’ve trusted pharmaceuticals, public health agencies, and food industries without question. While these systems promise safety and well-being, it’s essential to ask whether their interests align with ours. Taking control means learning about the foods we eat, the medicines we take, and the policies that influence our lives.The Risks of Blind Trust
History shows that not all recommendations from government or environmental agencies have been in the public’s best interest. From questionable chemicals in our food supply to concerns about vaccine safety, we’ve seen time and again the importance of questioning and verifying information.Protecting Your Family
As parents and caregivers, we hold the responsibility to safeguard our families. This includes questioning the safety of household products, avoiding unnecessary medical interventions, and fostering a healthy environment that minimizes exposure to toxins.
Taking the First Steps
It’s natural to feel overwhelmed at first. After all, challenging established systems and seeking alternatives can seem daunting. Here’s how to start:
Educate Yourself
Read and Research: Begin with reputable, unbiased sources. Look for studies, books, and articles written by independent researchers.
Ask Questions: When visiting healthcare providers or purchasing products, don’t be afraid to ask for details and evidence.
Start Small
Evaluate Your Diet: Switch to whole, organic foods and avoid processed options.
Ditch Toxins: Replace chemical-laden cleaning products, personal care items, and fragrances with natural alternatives.
Build Immunity Naturally: Focus on nutrition, exercise, sleep, and supplements like vitamins and herbs.
Challenge Norms
Question the necessity of every pharmaceutical recommendation.
Research vaccines thoroughly before deciding on them for yourself or your children.
Learn about environmental toxins and ways to reduce exposure.
The Reward of Self-Empowerment
Once you start taking control, you’ll notice significant changes:
Better Health: A focus on prevention and natural care leads to fewer illnesses and improved well-being.
Confidence in Decisions: Knowing you’ve made informed choices removes fear and doubt.
A Stronger Family: Empowering your loved ones with knowledge builds resilience and a healthier future.
You Won’t Regret the Change
The path may not always be easy, but it is worth it. By taking control of your health and beliefs, you’ll reclaim a sense of agency over your life. You’ll inspire others, strengthen your family, and leave a legacy of thoughtful, intentional living.
Let this year be the start of something transformative. Resolve to educate yourself, research deeply, and take control of your health and your beliefs. It’s a resolution you’ll never regret.
I could not agree more. Start with the easy things that don’t take any research - buy fresh organic food as much as possible. Avoid the center aisles in the grocery store which are loaded with ultra processed foods.
You need to get a good water purifier which also removes fluoride. This will cost some money but is essential. Do not rely on store bought water in plastic bottles - loaded with microplastics and other toxins from the plastic. There are many options depending on how much water you use. We currently use a reverse osmosis system which have come way down in price, take up less space, and are easy to install.
Move more, which is free. You don’t have to join an expensive gym. Walk outside in the fresh air and sunshine. Do some simple body weight calisthenics but start slow. Reactivating muscle not used for years will get sore. Starting too fast will hurt and discourage you. Don’t forget to work on flexibility. You will be amazed at how effective that is at combatting chronic pain. Later you can look more exercises online but there are a ton on them so it can be overwhelming.
Sunshine is essential. I recommend going barefoot in the grass to ground your body to the earth. I exercise barefoot in the grass in my backyard weather permitting. I live in the south so was outside today.
Good quality sleep is also free but very important. This is the one I struggle with most because I am a night owl and am constantly researching health related topics- like the importance of good sleep. Lol.
The critical education part is learning how terrible our sick care system is. It is designed to keep you sick as healthy people are bad for business. Until you finally realize how bad it is, it is difficult to break the habit of going to the doctor and getting a pill for everything. Learn about everything doctors want to out in your body. Vaccines are poison. Most pharmaceuticals are poison and unnecessary if you get serious about the things above. Some of the stuff above costs more, but so do doctors, drugs, endless tests to sell you more drugs, etc.
Don’t overlook your spiritual health. Find a good Bible believing church and get involved.
Okay rant over. You can do this and will be much happier and healthier for it. You and your family are worth the investment.
