Do we get enough exercise? Do we have simple ways to decrease the stress we feel in our muscles? Can we reduce joint pain?

Somatics exercises is one avenue we can all use to keep our living movement system free from a lot of the aches and pains that many people endure. We can also enhance and complement our life with a diet richer in omega 3 fatty acids.

Where do I find Omega 3 Fatty Acids?

If you’re into keeping your brain healthy, your mind sharp, and moving well, then a diet rich in omega 3 fatty acids will also calm your mood too.

omega 3 fatty acidsWhen we eat certain nuts, seeds and wild fish like salmon, tuna & sardines our body tends to build up resiliency instead of breaking down when we eat processed foods.

Did you know that 90% of Americans are low on the intake of omega 3 fatty acids?

Since our bodies can’t produce it, we’ve got to include a rich source of it through what we eat.

Increasing the amount of omega 3 fatty acids can help with lowering the risk of heart disease, reducing the risk of cancer and increasing our low levels of energy.

Our heart, eyes and even the immune system can be optimized by a proper intake of omega 3 fatty acids.

What is the right level of omega 3 fatty acids?

Well I don’t know but the people looking into this like Dr. Mark Hyman who will appear on the Dr. Oz show this week will talk about a test created by Dr. William Harris who is an expert on omega 3 fatty acids on human health.

Dr. Harris has created an at home test called the Omega Quant HS-Omega-3 Index.

Now there’s a mouthful but I hear the health problems we encounter are sometime easier to fix and reverse than we think.

Often times people are very surprised with the simple somatics exercises. Their minds are literally boggled at how such simple movements can be so profound. Could the fork we use be another tool?

Simple Diet Change with Omega 3 Fatty Acids

Same thing goes with our diet. OK, I know some of us love to eat the stuff we think is food and it can be daunting to give it up.

But what if you could help prevent asthma, improve blood sugar levels to protect you from diabetes and slow down the decline associated with Alzheimer’s just by changing your diet a little.

You can take the test and find out for yourself if Doctor’s Harris, Hyman and Oz are onto something beneficial for you.

Somatics which is defined as the body experienced from within not only relates to how well or not well we feel when we move or not move, it also has to do with paying attention to the signals our bodies generate from what we put into it too.

Dr. Mark Hyman may tell you that your fork can be your friend or enemy and one of the important tools when it comes to your health and well-being.
