Happy Healthy Holidays!

The Holidays Are Here!

I hope you had a great Thanksgiving with family and friends if you celebrated wherever you were!?While it is a holiday in the United States, I am reminded of my expat days in Europe long ago introducing French and Italian friends to our holiday tradition of giving thanks for the blessings we have including great friendships with people around the world.?I must say, if you have the opportunity to live in other countries, take it!?It will change your life! I still have friends around the world that continue to bless our lives.?I currently have a dear friend living in Tuscany celebrating with other expats.?Seeing their daughter grow up as a global citizen brings back so many memories of my kids growing up in Europe.

Fast forward many years and as we celebrated this Thanksgiving with a small family gathering, we were talking about how years ago we would live for the after-Thanksgiving sales to start our Christmas shopping or Holiday shopping if you will, depending on how you celebrate.?When I mean lived, I mean LIVED!?Back then, the stores opened early the next morning.?None of this 6PM on Thanksgiving Day and all night shopping stuff!?We had the lists together and plans to be up at 5 and in line for 6 AM to get that gift that the kids wanted.?We laughed this year because both our girls, my daughter and my husband’s daughter, wanted a quesadilla maker for Christmas!?We were dating and we made the 6AM line for that quesadilla maker!?How crazy were we??Pretty crazy!?We now own two of them since you know how it goes…. the kids leave their stuff at Mom and Dad’s!

?Over the past several years, our priorities have shifted for our entire family to one of being present with family and enjoying?time together because time is precious.?It is true that tomorrow isn’t promised.?And you can only own so much stuff!?A closet full of clothing doesn’t bring one happiness.?How many kitchen gadgets do you really need??Does one really need a new big screen TV every year??Yes, we exchange gifts for the holidays, but they are small in number and meaningful.?

Our adult children have all said that they have all they need.?They work hard and believe if they really want something, they can save and purchase it and not wait until Christmas!?It is about time and experiences together and having great health to enjoy it. That means that taking care of our health is at the top of our list!?That is the best gift we can give each other!?

People ask me all the time “Where do I start?” It starts with changing your mindset and realizing YOU matter!?Your health is important to more people than you know!?And, to have many more great memories with those that love you, you need to be taking care of YOU.?No one else can do it for you!?Yes, it takes dedication to YOU!?I can help you be accountable and walk with you on your journey as I have for so many people but only YOU can do it.?Believing you are worth it is step one.

People come with different goals in mind.?Some need to improve how they handle the stress in their life.?We will always have stress, but we can control how we deal with it.?It starts with improved health.?Some look for better sleep, better workout performance, weight wellness, or even better workout results.?Recently, I’ve worked with many who have reached a plateau in their weight wellness! ?I have shown them the science behind what they need to do to step up their results. The bottom line is how we treat our bodies not only by what we eat but managing our daily selfcare! It is mor complex than just one quick fix.?It is an easy daily checklist that becomes an easy lifelong routine! ?More recently, people are looking at total body transformations and starting 2022 strong with great successes!?

There are such great advantages in taking care of your health!?I know, you’ve heard me say it before!?But, maybe this time, one more person will listen!?One more life can be changed!?
