Give Yourself the Gift of Health This Holiday Season

We're entering into the holiday season – one of my favorite times of the year! I love fall with the gorgeous leaves and the cool, crisp air. Thanksgiving with family and friends is always special. And I take great delight in putting out my Christmas decorations and finding the perfect gift for everyone on my list.

But there's someone else who should be on our gift lists who often doesn't make it — and that's us. I firmly believe that we need to take care of ourselves first so we can take care of others effectively. This isn't selfish. It's similar to being on a plane when the flight attendant tells parents to put their own oxygen mask on before helping their children. Same principle.

What Can You Give Yourself This Season?

• Exercising regularly
• Losing weight
• Thinking before you speak
• Getting your anger under control
• Clean lungs, a brighter smile, improved lung function, and lower risk of heart disease (by quitting smoking)

The Gift of Becoming a Non-Smoker

Choosing to become a non-smoker has short and long term benefits. You save money, you smell better, and you set a better example for your family. But quitting can be hard — and many people either don't attempt it at all, or try and become discouraged.

Hypnosis makes quitting much easier and less painful. What better present to give yourself than the gift of greatly improved health? Call Dr. Melissa Rich at (254) 722-6716) for a free short assessment call.
