Aimee Raupp on Sleep, Soy, and Skinny Bitches

Aimee Raupp is a licensed acupuncturist with practices in Manhattan and Nyack, New York, and the author of Chill Out and Get Healthy.

The most important part of being healthy is being in touch with yourself on an emotional and physical level. Being in touch with your reactions to situations. How they make you feel, how you express your emotions, what are you using to manage your stress? Then it's sleeping and eating sensibly, as wholesome and clean as possible. We're losing touch with our physical and emotional selves. Be in your body. If you're not in touch with yourself, good luck with that. Check in with yourself. Notice that you feel like crap when you eat that Snickers bar.
