OK friends. So, I have not posted for a very long time and I still sell beautiful lashes with two companies. but most importantly, I want to use this site as a way to share my journey of becoming the best version of me with the hope to inspire others to do the same.
I realized that my priority needed to be my physical health. I just have not been feeling very well and chalked it up to being so busy with grad school, working fulltime, working part-time jobs to pay for grad school, being a mom and a grandma and all the other blessings in life. So, I started working with a nutritional coach/personal trainer, Erin Headley, who is absolutely THE best. She has supplied me with meal plans, exercises, meditations, more motivation and love I could have every asked for and still I have had such a HARD time doing anything she offered. UNTIL NOW!
I was feeling so discouraged because I could not even do the things she was suggesting. I just did not have the energy and I did not want to let her down much less myself. I don't think a normal person can understand the idea of NOT HAVING ENERGY. I have always been in great shape but now I have no strength, need to gain weight and have been just going through the motions each day.
I had to take a personal health assessment for work and I scored lower than normal. It was discovered that I have high cholesterol. I sought the advise of my daughter-in-law, Clara Neerdaels-Bennett, and she encouraged me to talk to Dr. Jack Janssen. Can I just say that Dr. Jack is absolutely AMAZING? He did a muscle test because he wanted to find out WHY is was high rather than just giving pills to lower it like my medical doctor wanted to do. He discovered that my liver needed support so I started the necessary supplements a week ago and can't even put into words how much better I feel AND the daily, annoying, headaches are gone! I had not realized I was living in a mental fog - just going through the motions each day. My mind is so much clearer and my energy level has increased dramatically. I can now begin to exercise as before I was just too tired. So now I have two awesome health and wellness coaches on my team of becoming the best version of my physical self. I am also working on the spiritual, mental, emotional, and financial aspects of my life and am eager to share the journey.
Today is a great day for you to start, too, if you haven't already. We can do this together. If you are already of the path of being the best version of yourself, perhaps you can share some of your wisdom? "Many people seem to live their lives as if this were a dress rehearsal. This is NOT a dress rehearsal. This is the real thing. The curtain is up and all the stops are out. You are alive. Start living!", from a Sagittarian philosopher. You can start by drinking extra water today. Thanks for taking the time to read this and make today AMAZING!
