Hi,<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

How’s it going? Hope you are doing really well and have a great day today.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I wanted to tell you about this important lesson I learned.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

You may not remember but I actually body build NON competitively. That means I don’t do contents, get on stage, and I do it as a hobby.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I do most of all the stuff people who compete do except get on stage and take steroids. I don’t take any steroids and everything I do is natural.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Anyway, I hang out with a number of people who do the same thing.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For me, since I am really busy, I have not <\/span>learned how to cook well. I don’t use spices <\/span>— only pepper and maybe some stuff that <\/span>has a lot of things in it that are spicy with no <\/span>salt. I forget what it’s called and I want to get <\/span>this daily email done without any further delay.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I met a lady in the gym who suggested to spice up my meatloaf (which is basically glorified ground turkey in a pan LOL) I should add onions and it would taste better, she said. She also suggested I add an onion to the gigantic amount of green beans that I eat\u00a0 every week. Or two onions. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

(NOTE-I am truly the WORST cook. Period)<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Other than it making me cry a lot when I was cutting it, I thought no big deal.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

However one friend of mine warned, “Dude, onions will mess you up.”<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

So after a few weeks of thinking about it, I decided to try it.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

BUT, you know me, I track stuff. So I was getting prepared to track how I felt, looked, thought, energy level, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

After two weeks, something amazing happened! The onions did start to smooth me out, which essentially means that it makes you look less tight.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

There was only one variable I changed in my eating plan–onions.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Now you might think, “No way.” <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Here’s the thing. <\/span>When I took it out of my eating plan, the smoothness went away in a week. Amazing!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

What the heck does this have to do with bipolar disorder? <\/span>You’re probably thinking.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Absolutely nothing. I gotta go.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

LOL just kidding. It does.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In my courses\/systems below:<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I teach about how the smallest changes can make the biggest impact.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

You do have to monitor the things you’re changing, though, like I said above, like I did. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Like you’re eating habits. <\/span>Like in my courses \/systems, like I was saying, I talk about how important diet is to your loved one’s treatment plan (and your own diet). <\/span>Because just a small change can make you feel so much healthier. <\/span>Now that <\/span>sounds like a small thing, but it is very <\/span>important.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

And exercise. <\/span>Another seemingly small thing, right? <\/span>But just starting to exercise, or changing up your exercise routine, can make such a big difference, because it can lower your stress level, and that IS a big thing when it comes to bipolar disorder.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Especially for supporters, because you have to deal with so much stress just being a supporter, am I right?<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Think about your sleep, too. <\/span>Seems like another small thing, too. <\/span>Especially for your loved one, because not enough sleep <\/span>an be a trigger to a bipolar manic episode, and you definitely don’t want that, do you?<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

So my point is, like the onion (don’t laugh!), small changes can make a big difference!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It’s really true. It’s you and your loved one’s job to look at all the changes made to see what can adversely affect the bipolar disorder.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Don’t ever say, “oh that won’t matter, that can’t hurt.” It can. You just never know.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

My mom can’t drink several drinks because of her bipolar disorder. Everyone else with bipolar disorder can drink the same stuff and not have any problems. Odd huh?<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Ever happen to you or your loved one?<\/span><\/p>\n
