Body Wellness - Living well as naturally as possible.
I have an interest in natural wellness and complimentary care practices.
A lovely woman I know, KC of KC's Kafe, has a quote at the bottom of her newsletter
that says simply:
Your body is your house,
and if you destroy it,
you have to leave.

How well do you take care of your body?
What are you putting in it? Food is fuel. Quality and quantity matter.
How are you treating your body? Are you treating it like something or someone you cherish and want only well-being for? Are you setting it up be strong and healthy, to enjoy your time living in it?
With all the advances of medicine, there are staggering increases in disease, chronic conditions, and health care costs. Something we are putting in our body is not right or good for it. Have you listened to the litanies of known side affects in pharmaceutical commercials? And what about what you're eating, drinking, and otherwise exposing your body to?
There have to be better, healthier options...
I wrote Health Care - What if We Play the Games Differently? to get people thinking, paying more attention to their health, and asking different questions. Until the players and payers (consumers and employers) start asking different questions and making different choices, the system stays the same.
I share here some of the sites and resources I've found valuable and helpful as a consumer. It's not exhaustive. It is intented to be a starting point for your own information gathering. The sites and products are some I thought worth sharing. They’re not intended to be specific recommendations.
As consumers, we each need to do our own shopping, information gathering and thinking, talk to health care and wellness professionals and practitioners we trust, and ask questions. Then choose what fits and feels right to YOU, what makes sense for YOUR BODY and YOUR life.
It is YOUR body and you know it better than anyone else. Also, no one else values your health more than you do. And no one else has more vested interest in keeping you healthy.
Some of the players have a vested interest in NOT keeping you healthy....

IDEAL HEALTH - soon to be The TRUMP NETWORK
Smart Vitamins, Customized to Support YOUR Healthy Body
How many of our 'conditions' would go away with the right "fuel" / nutritional support? And what if your body could repair itself given the right, customized support?
That's the science and the story behind Ideal Health. They make customized vitamins.
The person who introduced me to them had migraine issues...until this product came along. I'm a customer and a marketer and have countless more stories like the ones here. I like the products.
I don't get colds and no more sneezing driving past corn fields. And I feel great! From a business perspective, extra income makes sense for all of us. If you have any questions from either a customer or marketer perspective, please ask. (I know I did, and I would expect nothing less of you. It was helpful to have a live person to talk to.)
When you decide to try Ideal Health and its products for yourself, please use the links I've provided or mention Preferred Customer number 2296481. You will get the lower preferred customer prices and I will get credited for the referral. Thank you much. I do APPRECIATE the support. With our purchases, we get to choose who and what we want to help grow. (And if you decide to become a marketer, you become part of my team and it becomes part of my job to help you succeed! How sweet is that!)
Be sure to explore the rest of their site, other home tests and customized products, and more.
PS With more individuals not covered by insurance today, it is even more important to invest proactively in supporting your body to stay healthy and functioning well. To learn more about wellness and financial wealth, let's talk.

Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils
I learned about these oils years ago from Mary Ward-Farnham, a wonderful woman and very knowledgeable.
And then I was introduced to Karen Balistreri, Mary's "upline" person, another wonderful, knowledgeable woman and teacher.
Then 'Dr. Mom' Barb Lemke crossed my path. Barb is an RN trained and certified in the use of therapeutic-grade essential oils.
I love her Dr. Mom presentation.
And more recently, I learned about a class on Essential Oils for Animals....
The instructor was Mary Ward-Farnham. I had come full circle.
For me, I started slowly with the oils...a bottle of lavendar oil, the basic 'Swiss army knife' of essential oils.
I keep it in my purse, and have used it often. Good for the immune system. My latest discovered uses for it:
- Mosquito bites - It stops the itching.
- Cuts, including shaving cuts - It stops the bleeding.
I've since invested in the basic 9, a natural first aid kit to have handy.
I'm also finding myself drawn to the blends and using them in my work with clients,
especially the ones like Believe, Into the Future, Envision, Valor, Magnify Your Purpose, and Joy.
That annointing and strengthening part of our spirit, emotions, and memories.
If you want to know more, ask. If you want to order, here's how:
1. Go to the Young Living website
2. Select country
3. Go to sign up
4. Select Distributor (wholesale) or Customer (retail)
5. Type in #1058621 for Sponsor ID and Enroller ID

Politics of Wellness -
Consumer interests....
One would think keeping people healthy through the use of natural vitamins, essential oils, and other complimentary and alternative practices would be desirable and encouraged, particularly when something is working, is often much less expensive, and less invasive. Like everything, however, there's a bit of controversy and politics involved in allowing adults to research and make health care choices for themselves...

STOP SMOKING ...
You know. And you're ready.
It's good for your health, your job, your family, and your wallet. Employers are becoming more selective. In addition to your skill sets, your health habits are being considered more closely.
A colleague used Stop Smoking in 7 Days to quit.
Freedom from Smoking is another program that has helped colleagues quit.
Hypnosis is an effective third option.
Like any behavior change, it's a joint effort. The product/program and the desire to change both need to be there to be successful.
