Here’s ONE Thing You Should Be Doing During Covid-19

I know it seems as though everything around us is just getting worse. More Covid-19 cases, more isolation, more people losing their jobs, 401k’s getting destroyed, more stress, worry, fear and anxiety. It’s hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel right now…I get it. Every time I turn on the news I feel fear strike again. I’ve actually never watched the news before for this exact reason. The news is just filled with negativity and sadness. When’s the last time you turned off the news station after watching it and felt happiness, joy, laughter? Yeah…you can’t remember right?  
 
With all of the negativity around us, I want to show you ONE thing you can do during Covid-19 to uplift your spirits and find your center again.  
 
I’m a firm believer that everything that happens to us is neutral until WE give it a positive or negative meaning. We decide if an experience is good or bad. It’s all in your perception. Now hear me out for a second, I know it’s easier to look at this situation as a total gut punch. However, I promise you it’s how you’re looking at it. This is all in your perspective and I’m going to challenge you HARD today. I’m asking you to try to shift your perception to find the GOOD in this quarantined situation we’re all in right now.  
 
Let’s look at the facts. You’re isolated at home for the most part. You’re quarantined until further notice. You’re staying away from groups of people as much as possible. You’re stuck at home trying to entertain yourself. You’re only leaving your house to get food, take out and you’ve already binged watch every episode of your shows.  
 
What else is there to do?  
 
The consensus is that you have more FREE time on your hands and I believe the ONE thing you should be doing during Covid-19 is…  
 
Getting back to knowing yourself again. 

Before Covid-19 your life was FAST. You were in your routine of work, weekends, run here, run there, that it was natural for you to lose a sense of YOU throughout it all.  
 
When’s the last time you sat down and practiced stillness? 
When’s the last time you took a moment to reflect on what you’re grateful for? 
When’s the last time you paused for 10 minutes to meditate and breathe? 
When’s the last time you were able to clear your thoughts and write down your goals? 
When’s the last time you took time for you?   
 
Well here’s your moment. You can take this extra time to get back to truly showing yourself and your mind some much needed self-care. The one thing you should be doing during Covid-19 is take time to create new habits around getting to know yourself on a deeper level.  
 
So you can continue to look at this Covid-19 situation as a negative or you can demand to find the positives coming from it.  
 
Take today to do ONE thing that’s going to UPLIFT your spirits…ONE thing that’s going to enable you to see the positives from this situation. I promise you the positives are there, you just need to start choosing to see them.   
 
Start creating a morning routine that’s going to EMPOWER you rather than fill your mind and soul with fear.  When you start your day with positive and uplifting thoughts the entire rest of your day changes…you owe this to yourself.

5 Health Benefits of IV Hydration

It’s hard to know the truth about anything these days, it seems that you can always find contradictory information on the internet if you look hard enough.  With the Coronavirus (COVID-19) wreaking havoc on everything from financial markets to supermarkets it’s hard to know what information or methods you can rely on to protect your health (other than washing your hands and buying toilet paper!). 

At MDDRIP, we have an answer for you, HYDRATION.  A key wellness is maintaining proper hydration.  It is estimated that 75% of Americans suffer from chronic dehydration which, generally speaking, leaves your body less able to fend off illness.  We have curated hydration options designed to manage specific health issues including Meyers Cocktail, Cold/Flu Booster, Anti-Aging, After-Party Antidote, Migraine Minimizer, among others.   These can be administered in 100ML (QUIKInfuse), 250ML, and 500ML.  The length of time for infusion ranges from 20 minutes to two hours.  

As MDDRIP prepares to open during one of the worst pandemics our country has ever experienced, we have created a QUIKInfuse IV specifically design to support your immune system.  This 100ML option can be completed in a half hour (250ML also available, takes about an hour), is infused with Vitamin C, Zinc, and B-Complex Vitamins and can:

1.     Improve the moisture in your mucous membranes making it harder for microorganism to penetrate.

2.     Help your digestion run more efficiently and help prevent vomiting and diarrhea.

3.     Improve your oxygen flow.

4.     Flush out harmful toxins.

5.     Provide your body with the vitamins and minerals needed to help you ward off attacks.
