Water... Drink It Up! - Foundational Principle #2

Water... Drink It Up! -  Foundational Principle #2

I don’t know about you but I know water can definitely take a back seat during this time of uncertainty! Especially since any routine, schedule, structure is so off as we find our new norm!

It’s funny what takes the front seat… coffee, snacking, wine, that extra piece of chocolate, another cup of coffee… and water isn't even in the equation.

I believe water is essential to the 6 foundational principles of Health and Wellness. So, going forward let's give water a special seat in our daily lives. The time is now to build a healthy routine as supporting our immune system needs to be a priority.

You will be shocked that this small commitment will shift the overall health of your body.

Becoming the Best You! What It's Like to Coach With Me

Becoming the Best You! What It's Like to Coach With Me

Helping my clients move through their own challenges with anxiety by re-setting boundaries, re-writing their old stories that have become exhausting & re-building a personal manual that serves their overall well-being is the secret sauce of my practice as a Lifestyle & Wellness Coach. 

I have noticed an influx of inquiries from clients & prospective clients really wanting to get deep into working on changing old patterns & habits that have kept them stuck for way too long. I know that feeling all too well. As you know, feeling stuck is what propelled me to shift my own story.

With that said, I thought it would be helpful to give you an explanation of why clients decide to coach with me.

Reconnection to Imperfection (Plus, what's coming next!)

Reconnection to Imperfection (Plus, what's coming next!)

It has been a while since I blogged, I was finding myself very disconnected to writing and sharing.  

If you asked my vulnerable side Why? she would say…

Jen, write about TRUTH…share with your followers some of your inner struggles, processes to healing, and how you go about daily healing for yourself & private clients!  

If you asked my EGO she would say…

Jen, its much easier just to share recipes, products and food choices! Everyone wants a quick fix! It’s so much harder to share true feelings and 

and exposing imperfections. The EGO looks for a quick fix, EASE and perfection. 

I am ready for the opportunity to share on a much deeper level… My intention is to write content that is about touching other’s hearts with the acceptance of obstacles and blockages that may be in the way.

Stop Using Anti Perspirant Today... And Why!

Stop Using Anti Perspirant Today... And Why!

Did you know that the antiperspirant most people use daily is actually classified as a drug per the FDA?

The culprit: Aluminum! Aluminum is the active ingredient that helps antiperspirants plug up the sweat glands and reduce your perspiration.

Ready for some science? The hypothesis on antiperspirants suggests that aluminum clogs your pores and increases estrogen in your body. Result: Sweat can not escape!

Think about how that film has been blocking pathways of toxins you have been taking in from some crappy nutrients, products and environmental factors. It's time to let them out, wouldn't you agree!?

And that's not even the half of it. But don't worry... I have you covered.

Today on the blog I talk about all the reasons why you should STOP using your deodorant that has anti perspirant in it TODAY, and instead use one of my favorite all-natural kinds! (Or find your own!) Its worth it to make the shift. Your cells will thank you!

What Defines You?

What Defines You?

Lately, I've been listening to podcasts and let's just say, I'm hooked! 

Rather than listening to music as I drive around the city I've been finding podcasts from my favorite influential people and letting their words wash over me as I head to my destination. 

This particular podcast was 'Oprah's Master Class" with her guest Goldie Hawn. As I listened, Goldie began to speak of her accomplishments and what truly defines her as human being. I was taken back by Goldie's words! When I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror, my reaction looked just like my daughter Elly in this picture, ha!

Wow! This has me asking... What defines you?!

My Favorite Vitamin C Serum

My Favorite Vitamin C Serum

Let's talk skincare today! Skincare is my number one focus next to my nutrient-dense dietary habits. Why? After spending the last 20-plus years in healthcare coaching clients and teaching movement, it became clear to me that what I put on my skin also has a direct affect on my overall wellbeing. 

It's easy to recognize that what we eat & drink affects our bodies, but it is important to realize that what we put ON our bodies affects our inner being too... digestive system, brain and organs! Yikes! Non-organic products filled with toxins and fillers? No thanks! I want glowing, supple, hydrated skin -- not just for the sake of what it looks like -- but because of what it reflects: health inside and out.

Ready to "C" what's to LOVE about my favorite skincare product? Head over to the blog to find out!

Hail to the Pancake and Waffle!

Hail to the Pancake and Waffle!

As most of you know, I am pretty ritualistic with my morning routine of hot water & lemon, a cup of my delicious coffee with organic half and half, and a energizing breakfast to start my day - usually some kind of nutrient dense shake, egg or oatmeal. But sometimes... it just becomes a little monotonous (like everything else) UNTIL we decide to be curious about what else floats our taste buds' boat.

So? I searched and I found! Today, I want to share something that has given my taste buds (and my friends' taste buds!) a sense of comfort and pleasure knowing that we CAN indulge in pancakes and also get the nutrition our body craves. (No guilt!) I've loved adding these nutrient-dense pancakes to my morning rituals. I hope you will love them just as much as I do!

Look no further: this your healthy alternative to the gluten, sugar, low-fiber mainstream pancake & waffle mix!
