New Year, New You – Sticking to your New Year’s Resolutions in 2018

New Year, New You – Sticking to your New Year’s Resolutions in 2018

Santosa Detox Wellness Center New Year Resolutions

Welcome to 2018. It is a brand new year, another chance to get it right and start from a clean slate. Don’t let your New Year’s resolutions and best intentions fall to the wayside. Whether you pledge to eat better, exercise more or just live an overall healthier life, 2018 can truly be your year to shine.

In order to live a healthier life, one of the first steps is to evaluate current eating patterns and dietary habits. If your current diet is less than favorable, start by changing the negative to positive. Cut back on sugars and starches, and lose any kind of sugary or carbonated drinks. Instead, replace those with good old-fashioned water and healthy freshly squeezed juices.

Try to eat more green vegetables and cook more at home than dining out. Pay particular attention to the cooking oil you use to prepare your meals and opt for healthier choices such as Olive oil, Sunflower oil, Coconut oil or Rice Bran oil. When meal planning, it is important to keep a healthy balance and focus on the 3 major nutrients: carbs, protein and fat.

Once you are able to sort out your diet, it is time to think about exercise. In order to keep the body fit, it is important to be active. Are you new to an exercise regime? Find an activity that you enjoy and stick with it. Every little bit helps with regard to exercise whether it is jogging, swimming, yoga, HIIT class or a brisk, daily walk, the more you move the fitter you will become.

Feeling ambitious? Join a fitness class of your choice. A fitness class or even the gym is a wonderful place to meet like-minded individuals and build a support network. Don’t be shy when it comes to joining a fitness class. You will feel motivated and everyone in the class, especially the trainer, will be rooting for you to succeed.

Managing stress is also an important part of a healthy lifestyle. Smart ways to manage stress include taking a deep breath and counting to ten. Perhaps you can join a meditation class to help balance the stress. One important thing to remember is that when you are stressed, do not break your new healthy lifestyle by binge eating. Stress eating takes its toll on the body. Not only will you gain weight, and possibly continue to fluctuate, you are also likely to suffer from digestion system dysfunction. Other ways to manage stress are to focus and plan. Get yourself into a routine. Remember it only takes 21 days to form a new habit and condition yourself to make it stick.

Another way to keep up a healthy lifestyle is to participate in a detox once a year. A detox program is a great way to flush the toxins out of your body while resetting your system. While a detox can be challenging, you’ll feel fresh and rejuvenated after. A detox is a wonderful way to keep your healthy lifestyle on track.

Discover the Mezieres-Bertele Method at Santosa

Discover the Mezieres-Bertele Method at Santosa

Santosa Detox Wellness Center Class Participants Discovering The Bertele Method

Do you have problems with tendinitis? Do you suffer from fractures and dislocations, lower back pain or a frozen shoulder? Have you been diagnosed with arthritis or do you have rheumatisms? If you answered yes to any of the above questions, the Mezieres-Bertele Method is for you. It is a unique 4 hands massage that comes with great benefits.

What is the Mezieres-Bertele Method?

The Mezieres-Bertele Method is a physiological 4 hands massage that produces amazing results. The method teaches that the human body has 5 key muscle strains. The key strain is the back to the backside of the two legs, followed by the two arms, neck and chin. The last strain is the muscle under the chest.

These 5 muscle chains are not independent. In fact, they all affect each other. When you have pain in one of the strains and seek treatment, a traditional physiotherapist will work on the symptoms, however, if you work on only one the others will compensate. It is important to work on all muscle strains so that they can eventually balance out.

The Mezieres-Bertele Method utilizes a 4 hand massage technique to work on all of the body, and especially focus on the back which, according to this method, is the most important. Essentially, the method is a physiotherapy technique that endeavors to rebalance different muscle and joint chains through stretching exercises and body awareness. The result is improved posture and alleviation of pain.

A treatment during the Mezieres-Bertele Method is performed by two therapists who specialize in treating all the back, joint and muscle pain. 3 to 5 times of continuous treatment will show great results.

Who Benefits from the Mezieres-Bertele Method?

The Mezieres-Bertele Method is beneficial for everyone. If you are looking to improve your posture, motorial capacity, physical state or just to generally feel better, the Mezieres-Bertele Method can be of great benefit.

Does your body often feel uncomfortable or do you experience physical discomfort? Perhaps you have a troublesome back, an annoying hip, hernia disc problems or fractures and dislocations? If you suffer from any of these ailments, the stretching technique utilized in the Mezieres-Bertele Method could ease your discomfort and possibly eradicate it for good.

The techniques used in the method are also efficient for neurological diseases such as hemiplegia or spastic tetraplegia. The Mezieres-Bertele Method balances and relaxes the back ensuring a more flexible body and better posture while eliminating stress and pain.

During any treatment using the Mezieres-Bertele Method, attention is focused on postural massage techniques, neuromuscular, fascial and other maneuvers to promote the overall relaxation of the muscular system, contractures or painful points. Lastly, it is interesting to note that the Mezieres-Bertele Method is the technique used to heal ailments of the Italian football team.

The Mezieres-Bertele Method at Santosa Detox & Wellness Center

Santosa is pleased to announce that from today until the 15th of December, we are hosting two therapists of the Mezieres-Bertele Method here at our detox retreat. Both are visiting from Italy, and this is your only chance in Phuket to experience the 4 hands massage of the Mezieres-Bertele Method.

How Toxic Emotions Make Us Sick

How Toxic Emotions Make Us Sick

Santosa Detox Wellness Center Women Showing Strong Emotions

Emotions can ruin your health when you an individual becomes unable to control them. For example, think of how one difficult individual can be challenging to deal with and how you feel when this person is around. Chances are you feel upset and defeated. Counteract that with an upbeat, positive individual in your life who shines brightly. Reflect upon how you feel when they are around. Quite frankly, this individual probably brings out the best in you. You feel happy, you feel happy, you feel good.

Toxic emotions can lead to serious health problems. While there are a wide variety of factors that contribute to an individual’s vulnerability to illness, negative emotions tend to play a huge role in whether we live happy, healthy, productive lives or slip into an anxious, stressful pattern that can lead us down a very dark rabbit hole.

What we think about affects us both physically and mentally. This is no secret. In today’s society, expressing our true feelings is often looked down upon. We are taught from a young age to grin and bear it, that when the going gets tough the tough get going. Not being able to feel our feelings has become an epidemic, and not expressing emotions with truth and clarity has taken its toll on many people.

Dealing with toxic emotions can make us irritable. Suppressing strong emotions such as anger and hatred, which are natural, can build up in the mind, body and soul and affect our body’s internal organs as well as natural processes and breed even more negativity and toxic emotions. Toxic emotions cause stress, anxiety and fatigue, high blood pressure, headaches, poor circulation and depression. Toxic emotions are self-sabotaging and when an individual feels overcome, these toxic emotions can ruin the best of opportunities.

If you find yourself overwhelmed by toxic emotions, it is important to understand that you are not alone. Many people around the world have been in your shoes. However, you do not have to let toxic emotions ruin your life. You can rid the negativity from your life through an emotional detox.

Join the Emotional Detox Program at Santosa Detox & Wellness Center

If you are looking to rid yourself of toxic emotions once and for all, the Emotional Detox at Santosa can help you.
