Here at Marilu.com we’re all about Marilu’s TOTAL Health Makeover.  Because EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED TO EVERYTHING your attitude is a major component of your overall health.  Here’s some of Marilu’s best advice from her NY Times bestselling book,  30 Day Total Health Makeover:

 

“Don’t throw a pity Party.  Do something nice for someone else.  This is something I have tried to live by my entire life.  Whenever I feel sorry for myself, I always try to do something constructive with the feeling.  I try to turn it around and say, ‘I know I’m feeling bad, but if I do something to make somebody else feel good, I could probably make myself feel better as well.’  It could be any number of things.  You can look around and find something in your environment that somebody else would really like.  If you don’t have anyone in your immediate circle there are so many other people out there, strangers who could use your help, even if it’s on a volunteer basis; helping older people, sick people or someone in a shelter. “
