Want To Build a Healthy Lifestyle
But Don't Know Where To Start?
Welcome...
I created this site to help you live the healthy lifestyle you deserve.
I hope you
enjoy it!
Who Am I and Why Should You Take My Advice?
As a Registered Nurse, I understand the science behind a healthy lifestyle. And, as a Certified Health and Wellness Coach (with a degree in Psychology), I understand that having all the right information means zip if you can't get yourself to do anything with it. I have the know-how and experience to help you help yourself (namely to get your hand out of the bag of chips and your backside off the couch, and to take action).
I'm Just Like You.
I think what makes me most qualified to help you, however, is that I am a human being - one with flaws and faults and insecurities. I understand what it is to have weaknesses that seem impossible to overcome. I understand how hard it is to always do the right things and how angry I feel when I let myself down. I've learned to accept that no one is perfect and creating a healthy lifestyle is a process that happens one day at a time.
Why Did I Start This Website?
People frequently say to me, "I've got to get healthy. I know I need to eat better and exercise more. But, honestly, I don't know what that means." That's one of the major reasons I started this website. To help people who want to help themselves but have no idea where to start !
What Is Healthy Eating?
Could it be any more confusing? I mean, what IS healthy eating? Low carb? Low fat? Low calorie? Do you really need to calculate and record the grams and calories of every morsel you put into your mouth? Is eating for weight loss different from eating to stay healthy? Will you have to give up every food you've ever loved in order to live a healthy lifestyle? Say it isn't so!
What About Exercise?
And, what about healthy exercise? There are so many types of exercise, how do you pick one that you will actually WANT to do? Oh, yeah, and is daily exercise REALLY necessary? What exactly are the benefits of physical activity? At the end of the day, is it all really worth it?
The Products You Use In Your Home
And On Yourself Do Matter.
That leads us to your environment - your home and all the products you use in it, as well as those you use on your body. Every day we hear about another ingredient that causes cancer or some other horrible disease. Let's not even get started on stress and all the bad stuff that will happen to you if you don't have precisely the right amount in your life. The list of things you MUST consider in your quest for health goes on and on. OK, DON'T PANIC!
I've Done A Lot of the
Work For You.
That's why I'm here. I've sifted and sorted through the mind-boggling heaps of health information so you don't have to. Why have I decided to take on this monumental task? Well, for purely selfish reasons, I've been obsessed with healthy living for as long as I can remember. And, I really want to share all that I've learned with you. Why should you have to reinvent the wheel?
This website is for those of you who are struggling to take control of your health. It is also for those of you who aren't necessarily struggling, but who just want a fun place to learn and share. Trust me when I say it IS possible to make lasting lifestyle changes, and to have fun along the way. If we can't enjoy the process, why bother? So what is a healthy lifestyle? I hope to answer all your questions. Stay tuned and check back often as I create a site I can be proud of, and one you can refer to as an inspiration for creating your own healthy lifestyle!
