Happy Valentine's Day! 

What a great day to be present and give & receive love! Sometimes Valentine's Day just like other holidays can cause sadness especially as heavily marketed as these holidays have become. Perhaps you're expectations or desires were not met today. Instead of focusing on what didn't happen or could have happened, how about focusing on what is good in your life right now on this Valentine's Day 2018? I bet if you looked around you and jotted down the good, you would feel a lot better.  Try it right now. Go get a pen and some paper and begin a brain dump of gratefuls.

I am Grateful Ideas:

Waking up

Health

Breathing

Ability to move your body

Family

Pets

Friends

Clothing

Food & Water

Electricity & gas

Your job

Your car

Living in America

Freedom

 

Next think of something nice you can do for someone today:

Send loved ones a text expressing your appreciation for them

Surprise your neighbor(s) with some flowers

Call a friend and invite them over or out for coffee

Put sticky notes up on your loved ones mirrors with loving words relatable to them.

 

When we get out of ourselves and focus on gratitude and appreciation towards the good in our life, Valentine's day takes on a whole new meaning. Think of this day as a day to celebrate what you can give from your heart and what you are so lucky to already have. These are the best gifts on this day of love and they cannot be bought. They are priceless<3

About Me

My passion about health started in my teens when I first hand saw the effects of how illness can wreck havoc in a family growing up with parents who had serious health issues. I too struggled with losing weight & developed an eating disorder that I was able to heal by educating myself on healthier habits. It’s amazing what our bodies can do when we learn to take care of them like God intended. These experiences & challenges fueled my passion to be a life long student in pursuit of learning how to create healthier lifestyles where one can thrive at their optimal best. As a mother of 3 children & a wife of a traveling husband, I quickly learned how to implement healthy habits on the go so that I could be my healthy best for my family. This has evolved into my health coaching business Thriving With Health where I coach people to integrate simple & fun healthy 'bites’ throughout their day even on their most busiest & challenging ones. You are never too busy to take care of your health & I can show you how. Everyone has busy lifestyles and living at their optimum best is not only doable but can be fun as well!
