There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to your health and happiness. My program, the "Four Pillars of Wellness” functions like a chair; your energy needs to be distributed equally across each pillar to find true balance and joy in your life. Once applied, you transform your life in ways you previously believed impossible. Find your own unique balance across each pillar:

Nourishment, Movement, Lifestyle & Mindset.

It’s all too often that we find ourselves in the trap of comparison. A few tips to help you free yourself:

•Appreciate what you have
•Be kinder towards others
•Practice gratitude
•Become aware of, and avoid your triggers.

A reminder for all-“Social Media doesn’t always reflect reality. It’s usually not the complete picture of someone’s life-it’s just the highlight reel.”-Rachel Cruze

What’s for lunch? A simple and healthy salad to end the first work week of 2022! I chose Romaine lettuce as the base because I love the crisp texture. I added in any fresh vegetables I had in the fridge. Topped with sliced turkey and a homemade mustard vinaigrette dressing. I always make extra to keep on hand. Enjoy!

Mustard Vinaigrette c/o

1 tablespoon Dijon Mustard
1 1/2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Salt
Pepper
1/2 cup EVOO
1 small garlic clove

STEP 1
In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine the mustard, vinegar, lemon juice, salt & pepper. Whisk in the oil.

STEP 2
Peel the garlic clove and lightly crush, keeping the clove intact. Place in the dressing and allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes. Remove from the dressing before serving.

Are you a prisoner of the past or a pioneer of the future? The choice is yours. We can always control how we think, respond and act.
A few supportive tips:

•Think about responding rather than reacting.

•Take a breath (or count to 10 slowly). Buy yourself a bit of time before you react.

•Get to know your triggers and find an outlet to help you collect your thoughts before reacting.

•Replenish your energy-(yoga, meditation, strength training, running, journaling).

•Re-phrase your script!

Keep in mind that this takes time!

What is a habit or reaction that you would like to improve on?

Monday Motivation!
When my daughter was younger she used to set up her dolls for push-up contests and join in on the fun. She would announce herself as the winner when she got to 5. Can you set a goal for yourself to strive for 10 push-ups on day 10?
Start with-
1 on day 1
2 on day 2
3 on day 3
and so on…

Amidst the chaos and stress of daily living, self-care is unfortunately sacrificed so that we can invest in the pressures around us. At we explore questions that you must confront to achieve true balance. Mindful living means intentionally making choices that will lead to your best life.
A few suggestions-
•Laugh more
•Take a beat-when feeling stressed or overwhelmed, force yourself to stop and take a few deep breaths and drink water.
•Replace “should” with “could.” When negative self-talk arises, flip the “should” to “could” and choose to empower yourself rather than put yourself down.
•Say a daily affirmation-write down an empowering statement and put it where you’ll see it. Say it out loud each and everyday.
