Remember to give thanks this holiday like the Pilgrims. Reading the history of the Thanksgiving Pilgrims helps to appreciate the courage and hope required of those who were involved in our good fortune.

A Little Thanksgiving Thought by Julian Whitaker, MD, a wellness pioneer

• First, remember the history behind the day. In 1621, after a year filled with hardship and loss, the Pilgrims in the New World experienced a plentiful fall harvest. There was a bounty of corn, fruits, vegetables, fish, and meat. But, even more important, they were at peace with their Indian neighbors. The first Thanksgiving, more than anything else, was an expression of gratitude, friendship, and sharing.

• Try to bring this sense of meaningfulness into your Thanksgiving Day. It can be as easy as going around the dinner table and asking everyone to share a thought on what they are thankful for this year. Or, maybe you can donate food or time to others who haven’t had a bountiful year. Whatever you do, focus more on the folks and less on the food, which brings me to my next point.

• Don’t beat yourself up about holiday food. No holiday is more closely associated with eating than Thanksgiving. That’s a fact and there’s no getting around it. What you can do, however, is serve the traditional fare in a more healthful way or even try some innovative alternatives to the usual Thanksgiving menu.

If you are the guest at this year’s holiday feast, don’t worry about the food that is being served; just be mindful of your choices and portions. The reality is: A traditional Thanksgiving menu is loaded with healthy ingredients. CLICK HERE FOR THE ENTIRE ARTICLE
