Over the last 5-6 years I have tried to be more mindful of my nutrition but like most the last year or two has been a little more of a challenge in this department for me. I was still doing better than in the past, but I wasn’t taking my health as seriously as I should have. While my physical body wasn’t really being fed properly, I was in the process of working more on my spirit and mental health.
The last couple of years have brought our family many changes, some amazing, some needed, some unexpected but for the better. I am sure many of you out there can relate to that! In the past I was never really one to handle these changes without stress and worry which started to really take its toll on my physical body. I knew I needed to make the mental and spiritual changes first before really focusing on my nutrition.
What I have come to realize over these last few months is that your health is really made up of 3 different components; Mind, Body, and Spirit. We hear this so often, but really for me, it didn’t truly click until the last couple of years. I have come far with my mind and spirit but now it is time to add the final piece….the body.
A few years ago I signed up for a company to help with weight loss and it gave me a group of women that are truly amazing bright lights in this world. This program helped me tremendously and in more than just the weight loss I was currently looking for. I had great success in my journey but like most things over time it fizzled out of my life. While I can hold appreciation for that company and what it did for me in that season of my life, I just didn’t feel it was the right fit for this go around.
That is when a beautiful light I know told me about Shaklee and I started doing some research. At this point in my life I am looking for better. Better for my mind, body, spirit, and this beautiful planet we live on that I am guilty of taking advantage of and abusing in some way shape or form for too long in the past. After researching what the company stands for and the quality of their products, I was sold.
Yesterday my box came, and I am super excited to start the journey back to a healthy body. I have put this body through so much in its 43 years of life and am super grateful that it has been so kind and patient with me. Now I can start to show my gratitude by feeding it what it truly needs. I am excited to have a plan that is customized to me and not one size fits all. With being in my 40’s and the hormones that start to come into play, it is awesome knowing that I now have something in my corner to help along the way.
If the last couple of years have shown me anything it is that life is unexpected and we never know when the ride will come to an end. I choose to start living it fully and honor it in the best ways I can. This is one of those ways. I am excited for this next journey and to finally treat myself and my body the way it deserves.
Much Love & Light Always!
