The holiday  can be a busy season with many feelings and sentiments. There's always the thing how the holidays were before and maybe even expectations from even as early as growing up like how the holiday should be. And if there was pain, then we may even long more for this holiday to make up for our pain. And then there is a moving target on top of that, which is that life happens. With the pandemic, there was a time where all the holidays, were just via zoom, and we all stayed within our houses. And now that everything has been opening up more this year, we may need to get used to that, too. Brainstorm with my guest sherpa Sarah Hohmann on how to set sail not just for a peaceful holiday but for new things to come!You'r listening to YOUR Mental Wellness podcast for YOUR voice and sanity.

There's usually so much going on however, that really deliberately stopping and slowing it down seems like really essential. And then sometimes I find myself in this place of there's a lot to handle. And yet, the things that really kind of matter, most, I have to really push hard to have that at the at the top of my list, not at the bottom. So that's how the last couple of weeks have been. I get to stay on it just on the things that, that that represents my values. And then, on all the other stuff that comes our way, right, but what even what's going on in the world to really focus on the value driven pursuits first, and then on the rest. So that's been my last couple of weeks. It's been.It's been an interesting couple of weeks. But talking a little bit more about which I think is so good.

Let's talk about how to attend to chronic pain, memory loss, and depression. What does magnesium have to do with that, you ask?My answer: lots! Feel inspire to add, e.g., almonds,  cashews, peanuts, for extra magnesium.  Let's dive in!Also, here is a resource for you that lists how your magnesium intake should be coordinated with other vitamins and minerals. Enjoy!P.S.:Let's not forget that magnesium needs to be in balance with calcium. They have opposite functions — for example calcium contracts muscles, magnesium relaxes muscles. The ideal ratio of calcium to magnesium is thought to be 1:1 to 2:1 so if you're getting say 800 mg calcium, you'd need 400 – 800 mg magnesium. That's a whole lot more than the 200 mg that most people get. Most people's ratio is 5:1 or higher and that's a major problem over the long term.You'r listening to YOUR Mental Wellness podcast for YOUR voice and sanity.

Today I want to do a very surface scratch on the idea of sustainability, which a lot of times has been used with regards to describing activities or ways how enterprises or procedures are set up, that are able to then conserve or preserve the resources in this world, in the longer term. And we often do not even give a second thought to well food or clothing medicine have come from. Yet if we are taking a more sustainability oriented lens, we should just remember how our parents, grandparents, or great grandparents, used plants, for example, to eat to cure diseases, and to create clothing. And as we return to the very roots as to the plants that we have close to us, around us, we may find that these capacities that we may have set aside as we learn to find production of clothing, food medicine, elsewhere, cheaper than where we are, that indeed, looking at these things in our neighborhood, can really help to sustain us in a different way. A Western mindset  has moved us away from that connection with ourselves in the present moment, as well as with the knowledge from our ancestors.

Learn about how you can overturn your "brain fart" or forgetfulness and brain fog! There are a lot of helpful things we can do to protect our cognitive health. Believe it or not, the brain is composed of about half and half fat and water! Getting enough healthy fats in the diet will help nourish the brain - think things like olive oil, avocados, nuts and seeds, and of course, omega-3 fats at least twice a week from seafood, ground flaxseed and chia seeds.    Staying hydrated will also lubricate the brain and help it function properly. In the last few years, there has also been research on how excess sugars can "gunk up" the brain, and may contribute to the development of dementia.Focusing on building a plate with mostly proteins with healthy fats, vegetables and whole grains, limiting sugary drinks and treats to once or twice a week, and drinking at least 8 cups of fluids daily can help keep up brain health. There is also a lot of research that promotes the role of low-impact exercise & doing puzzles (think crosswords, sudoku, etc) on brain health.You'r listening to YOUR Mental Wellness podcast for YOUR voice and sanity.
