Have you ever wished you had a crystal ball? If you did, what do you think your life would look like in 5, 10 or 20 years? Will you be fit and healthy, able to do all the things you enjoy doing today?
If you think about it, we do have a kind of crystal ball - we can look at our own habits and health and look to our family for an idea of what to expect. In my case, my paternal grandparents both had diabetes, and both died at 65 – before I was born. My father developed congestive heart failure and died at 65. I was 26. Dad wasn't there when I got my first new car, my first house, or when I married. Guess what side of the family I take after? I swore I would never let my health go like that, but…..
Like my dad I was a workaholic. I was overweight and struggled to maintain a stable weight (not to mention lose it). I often ate on the run, and not very well. I tried a lot of diets and products but nothing worked. I sure didn't expect things to improve as I aged. When I thought of the active retirement I wanted to have it was pretty sad, because it didn't look like I would be up for any of it. The view in my crystal ball was pretty grim. And I wasn't even 50 yet!
Then I learned about some great products produced by USANA Health Sciences and began to take them regularly. My health improved! Next, I learned about Dr. Strand's Healthy for Life Program and began to follow it. Even better! Most recently I've been incorporating the principles I've learned in Live Well's seminars. My life is much more balanced, and my overall fitness and health are far better than they were just a few years ago. And yes, I'm losing that weight, too! Now when I look in my crystal ball the view is much brighter and happier because I'm in control of my health!
As an educator I have a passion for sharing information that makes a difference for others, and by partnering with Live Well International I get to share the best of the best in wellness education. This includes programs and support for individuals who are ready to regain control of their health and those who want to develop effective, proven strategies to help them maintain good health at any age.
I invite you to view the seminars available in the Wellness Center above to learn more. If you are in the Central Florida area, you can contact me to find out about live events and in-person consulting or coaching. Not in Central Florida? No problem. All information and coaching is also available online.
If you're ready to make a change to reclaim or protect your health, I would love to work with you to reach your personal goals. I look forward to hearing from you!
