Don't let life happen in 2019. Design Your BEST YEAR EVER!

Thinking about how you'll accomplish your New Year's Resolutions?
Even if you've just made general goals for the year, wouldn't you like to reprogram your body to fulfill them?

Filling your calendar with a bunch of reminders and to-do's is 10% of your success.
Even if you've started a vision board, you want to attract what you want, right?

I want to encourage you to take a small action, that will get you big results. On Tuesday January 8th I’m hosting a workshop called: Design Your Year: Take Powerful Steps Towards Making 2019 Your Best Year Ever!

I’ve been teaching this technique individually with clients in my Ultimate Makeover Health Program, and they are getting BIG results because we’re making changes on a cellular level. So no matter if you want to eliminate sugar, manage your stress, reduce alcohol, exercising, or getting organized…You name it, the goal doesn’t matter (this technique works on ANY goal). It’s not magic, we’re just using science in a creative way to connect the dots.

So does this really work?

Personally, I shattered some major barriers in 2018 that was keeping me from my goals, and doing this work resulted in 2018 being my best year ever. I’ll share with you more juicy details on the call.

This workshop is for you if you:

1. Desire to change the quality of life you want in 2019

2. Lack of motivation or self- sabotage has been a problem area in sticking to resolutions in the past
3. Want to learn how engage every cell in your body to participate in your success this year
4. Have or Have not put a plan in place on how to accomplish your goals for the year.
**This workshop will help clarify how to more effectively plan your success for your goals and teach your body how to help you- help yourself!

Natural Anti-Depressants to Combat Holiday Season Burnout

Holidays are supposed to be full of cheer and happiness, but for some of us, the combination with less sunlight, cold weather and epic to-do lists leads to a 3-4 month serious emotional struggle. Here’s my top tips of how to bolster your body with natural anti-depressants and beat the holiday blues.

1. Get as much sunlight as you possibly can. Our body’s storage of vitamin D gets easily depleted this time of year, so take action to get your fix anyway you can, even for 10-15 minutes. I even recommend people to go to tanning salons to boost levels. Low levels of Vitamin D affects adequate production of Serotonin and Dopamine which might make you feel even more in the dumps.

2. Make room in your life to sleep longer. Many folks make the mistake of not adjusting their lifestyle or diet with the change of seasons. Less sunlight means you may find yourself more tired or wanting to take naps. So take the time and schedule a power nap for 5-10 minutes, put on a guided meditation for a mid-day reset or just get to bed earlier in the nighttime. Aim for 7+ hours.

3. Plan your holiday party recovery. If you’re like me, you’ve already had your fair share of holiday parties. Like any other drug, you WILL begin a withdrawal period from the sugars within alcohol and of course the holiday sweets you cant resist. Sugar Detox usually begins about 24 hrs after your last indulgence. Sugar withdrawal will exacerbate feeling of overwhelm and make you feel scattered with a loss of focus. The antidote? Doubling your fiber levels the next day after a holiday party, i.e. steel cut oatmeal, brown rice, using flax meal, or any high fiber cereal will help dampen the withdrawal symptoms. Don’t forget to drink more water!
