The Health of It

I LOVE Reds&Purples and Greens
•
Especially when I blend them into a delicious smoothie...
Lactose Free milk, fresh berries, ice, protein powder, and my Macha Greens, Reds & Purples.
•
Energy, Vitality, Digestion, Nutrition, Wellness, and more
•
Of course, it tastes amazing, too.
•
Additionally, I am focusing on my exercise and dietary intake. Adding in supplements where the food is lacking.
•
In all honesty, no matter how go we eat we will still need extra minerals and nutrients added to our diet that our foods are missing.

"When Life Gives You Lemons...."
How do you finish that sentence?
I have been making lemonade, and lemon curd, and lemon muffins for a long time.
And today is not any different!

I am going to refocus and recharge my Wellness practice.

I have been wanting to recommit to doing this for a while but I needed a push,
And I received that last week when a Returning Client reached out to me.
Her journey is going to look a little different this time, but I am here to give her my all.

I also have been presented with more time to do this.
It is a blessing in disguise, but I am happy to say - much needed at this time in my life. NO bitterness, NO regrets - - Just focusing on what God has in store for me.

Stay tuned, more to come.
But for now, PLEASE reach out if you are at a spot in your life/journey where you KNOW you need to make a change.
I'll be here for you!

FEBRUARY - Heart Health Month and American Heart Month
Every workout I do will be In Honor Of or in Memory Of a friend or family member that has been affected by or passed away from heart disease.

DID YOU KNOW: 💔🩺🫀
*One person dies every 40 seconds in the United States from cardiovascular disease
*Men and Women Can have Different Heart Attack Symptoms
*Women are More Likely to Die of a Heart Attack Than Men
*HEART ATTACKS CAN OCCUR IN YOUNG PEOPLE!!!
While over 80 percent of people who die of a heart attack are at least 65 years old, heart attacks can also happen much earlier in life. No matter what your age, do not neglect the warning signs of heart attack.

That ⬆️last one - That has hit our family hard this last week.
Today I commit my Outdoor Walk to Sara Vanderlin 😘😇🥺💔
In Memory Of the beautiful and sweet person that she was.
Sara left us all way to early, 35 years young.
I am left with memories of weeekends that I/we babysat her, her infectious laugh, her love for dance and music and learning.

‼️💡 99 times out of 100, that 👇 is so much easier said than done.
Have you heard of the Transtheoretical Model of Behaviour Change (TTM)?
If not, let me explain.
There are 5 stages of change:
❔Precontemplation
❓Contemplation
❔Preparation
❓Action
❔Maintainence
(and Relapse/Lapse)
As stated in the picture below, you need to move through each stage to make progress.
Knowing you need to make change (contemplation) and actually putting in the work (action) both take effort, and time!

If you are ready, let's work together to move through these stages.
More info to come!
Watch for upcoming classes/groups.

**While reading an article called "See Ya, Stress!"**
#13 - BREATHE THROUGH YOUR FEET
🌿When you feel pulled in too many directions, center yourself by bringng attention to your feet.
🌿Take off your shoes and stand tall, with your shoulders relaxed.
🌿As you breathe in, notice each toe and then the entire foot on the ground.
🌱This helps you feel in control of your body; then think "How would I like to respond in this moment?"
