Easy Tips for Self-Care [Video]

This week, Rayna Neises, your host, talks with Dr. Leslie Kasanoff.  Leslie has spent her life in healthcare and recently has been combining her scientific knowledge with her holistic and nutrition expertise in health through coaching and consulting.  She provides the following insights for caregivers:

• Set an alarm clock for when the day ends and schedule self-care then. 
• Instead of working through lunch, take time to sit down, take 10 long breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth, and then eat.  
• Take a stretch break for 10 minutes each hour.
• Eat fruit, vegetables, beans, and whole unprocessed grain to help your body function optimally.
• Keep fresh, raw fruit on hand for snacks.
• When eating more plant-based, you are eating foods that settle down hormones.
• Consume grains in their natural form.
