Lying down after a meal tends to turn off or reduce the
rate of digestion. Walking or light-exercise after meals
keep the blood circulating and organs active.
Your body will be unable to properly absorb nutrients if you eat in a hurry
or are in an angry or stressed out state. To center and calm yourself before eating, take several slow deep breaths and chew your food slowly and thoroughly.
Aromatherapy can be an effective method
to promote health and wellness.
Essential oils of plants may be placed on your temples,
back of neck or acupressure points to promote well-being.
