Merry Christmas 2016

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays from Jennifer and Samantha (+ Carly the dog) at NutritionRx.

The holidays are finally here, so take some time to:
✓ slow down and relax
✓ spend quality time with your loved ones
✓ enjoy some delicious food
✓ and reflect on the many blessings in your life

Give the best gift of all, the gift of your TIME.

When someone reflects on their life, they aren’t going to remember the sweater, the gift cards, or the socks you got them for Christmas. Instead, they are going to remember the way you made them feel when you spent time with them.

So – schedule some time to laugh with your family and friends over tea or a nice glass of wine, some time for playing in the snow with your kids, or some time for long walks with your dogs and friends. The gift of YOUR TIME is more precious and valuable than any other gift you can give.
