As part of the Jack LaLanne community, I want to share that he was so ahead of his time when it comes to our health and wellbeing. He truly was the “Godfather of Fitness!”

In his wise words…

You don’t grow old from birthdays.
You grow old from stopping.
Stopping your movement.
Stopping your strength training.
Stopping your discipline.
Stopping your belief that your body can still improve.

Age is just a number.

But inactivity becomes a lifestyle.
Keep moving.
Keep lifting.
Keep walking.
Because the moment you stop… you start aging fast.

Star Gazer’s, Look Up! 🌎

Rare Event where the planets will align in the evening sky. 🎉

Best time to view is 30-60 minutes after sunset.

For us “up north folks” who are dealing with lots of snow and no visibility to the heavens, let’s hope for clear sky’s that early evening. 😂

These days are tough on all of us…

Mentally, emotionally, physically and most of all spiritually. We are experiencing a tremendous shift in our world along with the vibration and frequency of energy that surrounds us. Just know, you (we) are not alone!! Walk by faith, not by sight. Stay strong in the face an adversity and continue to take care/charge of your health. Now is not the time to give up but to be stronger. With strength comes resilience and the power to handle these uncertain times with love, gratitude and compassion.

We are strong and VIBRANT, not vintage.
With age does come wisdom, we got this!! ❤️🌟🎉🙏☀️

Let’s get our lymphatic system moving!!

One way to help our bodies process and remove toxins is with lymphatic drainage massage. Today I will share a video on how to do it and the best part about this “massage” is that is can be done in under two minutes in the morning upon rising!!

The reason I love lymphatic massage first thing in the morning (plus drinking 12-16 oz of clean water) is because it uses light pressure to stimulate the movement of lymph fluid, which helps reduce swelling (edema), flushes out toxins, strengthens the immune system, and promotes tissue regeneration. It effectively reduces fluid retention by encouraging lymph flow, can relieve discomfort from inflammation, chronic conditions, and post-surgical recovery.

Key Benefits of Lymphatic Drainage:

Reduces Swelling and Fluid Retention: It is particularly effective at reducing lymphedema and other swelling by moving excess fluid out of tissues and into functional lymph nodes, reducing discomfort and heaviness.

Boosts Immune Function:
By accelerating the removal of toxins and waste products, it allows the immune system to function more efficiently and can help ward off infections.

Supports Detoxification and Health: It aids the body in filtering out waste, which can lead to improved skin health, reduced bloating, and a feeling of being less sluggish.

Accelerates Healing and Recovery:
It can assist in recovering faster from injuries or surgery by promoting tissue regeneration and reducing inflammation.

Promotes Relaxation:
The gentle, rhythmic, and light pressure helps lower stress, improves sleep, and stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system.

Warning!! Please remember that is important to note that individuals with certain conditions, such as blood clots, should avoid this type of massage and consult a doctor first.

Let’s Get Real!!

Bread challenge… take a piece of your favorite bread and run it under water in your kitchen sink. What happens? Most store-bought breads will absorb the water like a sponge, and not even come apart due to the chemicals and preservatives in it. If this is the bread that you are eating, throw it away now. 😱 I can only imagine what most people stomachs feel like when consumed!!! Then you wonder why so many men, woman and children are sick and have chronic stomach and digestion issues.

The easy solution… Stop eating store bought bread and make homemade bread with organic, non GMO, not bleached wheat flour. 🎉

Think about this… Flour is not the same when we were children. Instead of wheat having 14 chromosome’s (think Ezekiel bread), today’s wheat flour (which is BLEACHED white!) has 46 chromosomes. Modern Wheat (Hybridized) is commonly found in the market today (42-46 chromosomes) and it was created through cross-breeding mutation using chemicals/radiation to improve yields and create shorter, more durable crops. What this did was create generations of children who are now adults suffering from chronic digestion, illnesses, and dis-eases. This now affects our children, grandchildren because of the fake food that we are allowing into our bodies. Let’s stop and become aware and stop trusting these companies whose only real interest is making money!

It is time to put your health and the health of your family first! 💖

As Governor, I have worked to make Florida the model for health freedom. I’m proud of First Lady ’ leadership on Healthy Florida First, and I’m grateful for Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo unwavering dedication to science rooted in truth.

Today’s announcement about bread product testing, which follows the release of infant formula and candy test results, is another step toward a healthier future. We will continue working to arm Floridians with the information they need to make the best choices for their families’ well-being.

Let’s Get Real!!!

Our eyes can be bigger than our stomachs. Who hasn’t stuffed themselves and felt sick after the fact?!? When we sit down to eat, let us think portion control! 🎉

For our January 28th FF&C LIVE zoom program, Coach K and I showed you ways to stay in control. If you missed it, the video is up on our members page. Using a salad plate to reduce the amount of food that you eat truly helps to reduce calories consumed but also using your hand for measuring (if you don’t have portion control meaurings “cups” found on Amazon!) lets you visualize the portions for meat, grains, veggies/fruits, nuts/seeds, nut butters, and oils. This method can help keep all of us from overeating!!

Think before you eat or as the saying goes… a moment on the lips, a lifetime on the hips!!! 🤪😂🫤

Thank you Jaime Brenkus (8 Minute Abs!!) for the great picture provided!! You are amazing and an inspiration to all of us that want to be Vibrant, Not Vintage. 🤗

Let’s Get Real!! Watch out for hidden sugar!

Sugar is highly addictive and we wonder why being diabetic is prevlant in the US. Did you know that 45% of those age 45 to 64 years old are pre-diabetic and 50% for those 65 and older. Furthermore becoming diabetic increases with age. In 2023 the CDC states that over 40 million people were diagnosed/undiagnosed. What is scary is that many people that are undiagnosed can cause serious harm to their bodies.

So let me break this down for you with sugar hidden in your food.
1 TBSP = 12 grams

Spagetti Sauce
Prego - 10 grams of sugar per serving. Eeeck! Thats a lot of sugar, the bad kind!
Ragu - 8 grams of sugar per serving.
Rao’s - 3 grams of sugar per serving.

Yogurt
Strawberry flavored Yoplait has 19 grams of sugar per 6 oz container!
Light Strawberry Yoplait - 7 grams of sugar Too Good yogurt - 3 gram of sugar.

Also do not group fruits into this category!! Fruits are not the enemy. White, brown and all those substitutes sugars are the enemy.

Did you know that the American Heart Association recommends women eat no more than 25 grams of sugar per day and men no more than 36 grams of sugar. We all know that most store purchased items have way more sugar, salt, additives, and preservatives that are not healthy for our bodies!

Remember five or less ingredients is best and go for the single ingredient!

Blessings!

Let’s Get Real!!

Food recalls, intense solar flares and crazy weather patterns.

We are all in an amazing shift with God, within our hearts and what our planet is processing. My best advice is to go with the flow. Embrace the weather, send love and gratitude to our earth, the planets and how they support us. I also need to remind you that we can’t control external events but we have 100% control over our internal response and choices.

As to the food recalls, please be proactive. We cannot live in a bubble but as the saying goes… “when in doubt, throw it out! Also please wash, wash, wash everything before making/baking/cooking!!

Deep cleansing breaths!! You got this!!

Blessings~
Carol
