👉The problem with conventional sunscreens is that they contain toxic ingredients that are potential endocrine disruptors and 🔥skin irritants. In addition, spray-on products can be harmful to your respiratory system if inhaled.⚠️

It’s a weird photo and I meant it to be. My point is grab some vitamin D while the grabbing is good. Plus lying on those hot stones felt amazing. *inspo .

I have a wonderful career, passion and life as a Personal trainer, Holistic Health Coach and integrative Nutritionist .

Everyday I marvel at the wonder of the human body and all it does.

That’s why 25 years ago I went on a quest to educate myself about its brilliance and splendor and teach others to respect, love and care for their beautiful body.

Step 1- Let go of negative judgement and criticism about your body. These expectations are culture driven they don’t come from your heart.

Step 2- Empower yourself by learning about your wonderful body and all its systems.

Step 3- Hire a health coach. You may need help navigating all the conflicting science, nutrition and health trends. Health coaches are educated and certified. We research, sift through the fake news and j***y trends and keep up with the latest science.

We can help you find the best plan for you. One size does not fit all!

All dressed up and FINALLY some place to go!

You do it every day, and it's messing with your life.
You're telling yourself the same bad stories day in and day out…
“It's too hard to get fit. It's too expensive to eat healthy. I've tried living a healthy life and I could never stick with it.”
Ask yourself, Is my story getting in the way of me reaching my goals and living the life I want to live?
Or am I comfortable with my story? Does my story make it easier to accept why I’m not living a healthy lifestyle?
Somewhere along the line you may have latched onto some fears and preconceptions and they may be holding you back.
Plus the truth is, rewriting your story could be daunting, unpredictable and it may require some work.
But you can change your story if you want. You are the author of the story.

Maybe Instead of, “it’s too expensive to eat healthy” it becomes, “it’s too expensive to be sick”. Doctor bills, prescriptions, and hospital stays add up and are way more expensive than organic produce. This new story is more likely to initiate positive change.

Think of all the successful people you admire. The ones that have had great achievements in their lifetime. They all have powerful stories. They would never have reached their goals with limiting stories, built on past obstacles, fears and doubt.

As the author of your story, write a great new one that breaks through any limiting beliefs and then go live it.

If you need help transforming your life to a healthier one DM me. I would love to hear your story.

Today my functional doctor showed me the results of my stool test. my Dysbiosis was off the chart. How could this be? I asked her why. She started to list probable causes, NSAIDs , proton pump inhibitors, exposure of toxins, lack of sleep too much stress. I replied nope, nope and nope. She said you know you’ve been exercising hard as a trainer for practically your whole life. Your body and your mind is used to it but exercise is stressful for your body. What? No way it can’t be that. Today I woke up and I see things differently. While exercise is important and necessary, excessive exercise is not. Can you believe I make a living do this and I’m telling you to take it easy with it? For me It’s the day in and day out of teaching classes, lifting weights with clients and preparing workouts and choreography. So today to skip some exercise sessions. The ones I do on my own of course, and spend that time taking care of my body. For example, Preparing the right foods, relaxing , taking some downtime and doing somethings to recover. Time well spent to balance out the time where I’m pushing my body past its limits . It was easy to come to this realization when I turned on the .asprey .a sorry podcast and he was interviewing Laila Ali and this was the exact topic they were discussing . Great timing!
