Tips to thriving through the New Yearβs resolution mid-month slump
How is your commitment to your New Yearβs resolutions? Some individuals tend to lose steam and momentum at the mid-month mark because they take on too many goals or change their schedule entirely in order to achieve certain goals, for example going to the gym 3-5 times a week or following a restrictive diet. If you find yourself slowing down or wanting to throw in the towel, here are some tips to get you through the rough patches and come out thriving. Take small steps If you want to implement a new fitness or nutrition regimen, start small. It is the small things we do in life that make the biggest differences. You donβt lose weight overnight nor do you gain the strength to complete a race. Itβs about starting small, adjusting along the way and implementing good habits everyday over a period of time. If you donβt see positive results right away, donβt give up, know that every step you take is leading you towards your ultimate goal. Focus on the big picture Focusing on the big picture goes hand in hand with taking small steps. What is your ultimate health and fitness goal? Is it to hike the Grouse Grind or simply keeping up with your grandkids? Whatever your goal may be, remember that thereβs no single way to achieve that goal. For example, increasing your workout regimen doesnβt entail spending more time at the gym. Keep moving by trying out a variety of fitness classes or winter activities that suit your lifestyles and needs. Resting is part of the process If youβve starting a new fitness regime and have increased your physical activity, remember that rest is part of the process. Itβs during our downtime that our bodies repair and get stronger. Give yourself a day or two to rest after a rigorous exercise and ensure you supplement with appropriate supplements to help maintain good joint health. Setting New Yearβs resolutions doesnβt only occur in January and itβs okay to fall off the wagon. Remember you have the choice to set good intentions, take action and set new goals for yourself.

17 years ago, with SierraSil, I healed from chronic inflammation when I had Polymyalgia Rheumatica (PMR) - severe muscle pain throughout my entire body. I avoided the dangerous prescription drug Prednisone. More recently, I have suffered for 18 months with constant severe sciatic pain - lower back, down through left butt cheek and down my left leg to my knee with pain in my knee and pain down to my heel sometimes. I often could not sleep because of the pain, and I could not walk without limping. I spent many hundreds of dollars on chiro and deep massage treatments which were very painful. Those treatments only had limited & temporary relief. For 18 months it never dawned on me that sciatic pain is likely from inflammation. I went back on SierraSil and within 2 weeks the sciatic pain was gone. Wish I had thought of it sooner.
Advised I have severe osteoarthritis in one knee, so started using Joint Formula 14 over 8 weeks ago. It's working, pain is less and can now walk, golf and bike with less pain. Hoping it continues to improve so I can delay a knee replacement as long as possible!
Have bought this more than once. My dog loves them. Been giving them to my German shepherd for joint health. The company has also supported NASHI Our Children charity.
I've used this product for several years, as needed and it is a great product. Unfortunately there was a mixup and I ended up receiving 6 bottles instead of 2, so returned the other 4 (in two separate shipments by Canada Post) I am pleased with your Customer Service in how they have dealt with this unfortunate situation.
