Welcome Friend
I am so glad you are here. Give yourself full permission to pause. Take a deep breath and soften the outer edges of your body. We are so used to getting caught in the chaos of life . We let go of the balance of our life because we have so many demands. There is this idea that we can’t fall behind . We need to fix everything. If it’s not one thing it’s another. We can’t always eliminate the stressors of our life because our lives are constantly changing and so does the finish line. But we can be aware of how stress affects us, and with that awareness we get to choose how to respond. We get to decide which activities and choices we engage in. Other than exacerbate our stress we can mindfully reduce it by making choices in the activities and habits that create balance and maintain our health. When we are stressed we neglect these things because the stressors become the focus of our life. We don’t eat well, we don’t sleep, we don’t engage in movement we actually enjoy, we don’t see our family and friends, we don’t take time to rest and rejuvenate. This leads to things like insomnia, high blood pressure, weight gain, fatigue, anxiety, isolation and burnout. Not only can lack of balance and health add to our current stress, it escalates the deterioration of our health down the road. We need to prioritize our health balance and well-being. This is your invitation to step into this place of balance to reclaim your health and wellbeing.
As a massage therapy or health coaching client of mine, you know that I strive to be of service in creating health and wellness in the lives of others. I especially have a heart for woman. We as women have the pressure of being so many things to others that we put our own health and lives on hold. But here’s the thing, when we don’t take care of ourselves we can’t fully take care of others. An empty well provides no water. We need to fill our well first and give from overflowing so we can step fully into our authentic selves and be the confident, strong, happy and fulfilled women we are called to be.
Putting our self-care last serves no one. I’ve learned that myself. I’ve lived in that place and it doesn’t feel good or make my family happy. It actually causes greater pain and stress for everyone. Coming home tired, cranky and worn out is just not the way I wanted to live. So I took back the reins of my life. I started with small manageable changes that I could pleasurably commit to. I started with nourishing my body and honoring my hunger and fullness. I fed my body nourishing foods that gave me energy rather than depleting my energy. Then I learned how to honor my Yes’s and my No’s. I made myself a priority and only said yes to things that I knew would serve my family and my well-being and said no to the things that didn’t. This created freedom to do the things I loved. Spend quality time with my kids. Spend time in nature. I got out my knitting projects again. I scheduled time to be with my girlfriends that lift me up and love all of me. My husband and I put ourselves on the calendar for a weekly date night and I began upping my self-care by getting a weekly massage. And you know what? I feel amazing. I feel more balanced, relaxed, confident and fulfilled. It opened up a place for me to discern what really makes me come alive. I became more empowered to make choices that help me maintain this health and balance so that I can continue to be present and giving to you my clients, and to my family and myself.
It was a process. It didn’t happen overnight. But because I started small with manageable changes in the context of my busy life, my habits stuck. (I have a business to run, a husband to love and a family with 5 kids in our clan, so I know what busy looks like.) I get it! I’ve been there. I know the struggle is real. But now I have a new healthy foundation that has been laid, and I choose where to go next. And you can do this too. I want to help you step into the fullness and fulfillment that I know you can experience.
If any of this resonates with you, let’s chat. I offer a FREE 45 min. empowerment session to help you uncover what you have put on hold, and what is stopping you or slowing you down from living the life that makes you feel confident and fulfilled. It’s a strings attached session. You will get valuable tools in this session to help you create a plan to moving forward. And if you decide I can be helpful to you, we can talk about how to work together to get you back on track and put you back on the priority list of your life.
