To Diet or Not To Diet?

If you felt better, had more energy and reached your ideal weight, you would probably feel like a new version of yourself, right? Here's my take on dieting: I don't think it's realistic to aim for a 'perfect ' diet.  Since we are all unique beings, the diet that's perfect for you probably isn't perfect for your best friend or someone else.  So, truly, there is no one perfect diet for everyone. I think you have to decide what works best for you and what makes you feel the best.  Many of us are too busy to slow down long enough to tune into what makes us feel good, or bad, bloated, or tired, etc. When you take the time to notice and listen to your body, be observant (did you get a headache after lunch when you had a certain food?).  You may be surprised what you notice. Your body gives you clues all the time about what is and isn't working well for you.  Change isn 't easy, and we are all creatures of habit, but you are worth it! If...

The Benefits of Smoothies

Image
After my challenge with the awful symptoms of fibroid tumors, I developed a passion and love for helping people to detoxify their bodies, learn how to eat healthy foods, and improve their digestive function.   Smoothies can improve your health and how simple it can be to fit them into your daily life! It is important to include daily smoothies in our everyday lives.  When our body does not have the important nutrients that it needs, we cannot metabolize foods properly and we tend to not feel so good. Some of us can experience weight gain, food allergies, anxiety, depression, mood changes, belly bloat, IBS, and constipation.   And those are just a few of the things that can happen when we’re not getting proper nutrition! You may also experience low energy or stamina and a low libido (or sex drive).  Ultimately, we are malnourished when our body does not receive the nutrients that it needs to flourish with health. When some peopl...

My 24-hour Detox

  Ready to eliminate those toxins that cause weight gain, brain fog, loss of sleep, loss of mental clarity, and fatigue? If you’ve been feeling bloated, then you know more than anyone that you need to cleanse the junk from your body. It’s not always easy picking which path to take to cleanse your body for the results you want. But, I’ve made it super easy with my 24 Hour Detox. I don’t believe in deprivation, so you will not feel deprived in any way. In fact, you’ll feel quite the opposite. The reality is, no matter how clean we eat, we live in a very toxic world. Before we even open our mouths to take a bite of food, we are exposed to vehicular and industrial pollution in the air and toxins in our cleaning products and cosmetics. Not to mention the havoc wreaked on the body by stress. So, the question is not ‘am I toxic?’ but rather ‘how toxic am I?’ Ready to eliminate those toxins that cause weight gain, brain fog, loss of sleep, loss of mental clarity, and ...
