Shifting our balance is necessary constantly. Nothing is static. Not our health. Not our posture. Not our daily routines. Not our relationships. Not us. As we age our bodies require different care. This could be a need to change our food, our activity, our relationships, our beliefs, our views and our expectations. Turning inward and listening maybe the first step... Shifting Balance is normal and healthy.
Why have I evolved my practice beyond massage therapy?
JUST LIKE YOU-
I am getting older.
I have been a Massage Therapist supporting my clients in managing healthy aging and chronic stiff achiness and pain for 20 years. In that time, I too have been getting older.
On my journey I have discovered a few changes in my daily choices that currently have me feeling more mobile, energetic, less stressed and over all happier and healthier today -Without Feeling Deprived.
As a Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach I want you to feel your best - Now and at any age. I want to share these approaches with you.
The foundation of this is available through -
Tailored to You 1:1 Health Coaching or Healthy Habits 6week Weight-loss (Last offering before September starts this Monday 4/15)
Both include the opportunity to experience Healthy Choices Educational Grocery Tour and Mindful Movement.
One Choice at a Time
You are worth the investment. Wouldn't you agree?
You are correct; being healthy is not free. Being overweight, sedentary with a weakened immune system is not free either.
There is an investment in being healthy or cost for illness - either way it will involve time and money.
Your CHOICE where you spend it.
Ask yourself-
How many of the social media diet supplements, meal replacements or programs have you bought that did not work long-term or work at all?
How much are the co-pays for the doctor visits, lab work, physical therapy sessions and medication’s to manage a chronic illness, fatigue, pain, etc.? Did you include the costs of the all the over the counter products for sinus congestion, runny noses, sleep problems, digestive issues, etc.?
What is the potential future cost of all these reactive approaches?
What is the emotional and the psychological toll on yourself and your love ones when you cannot join them in an activity due to just not feeling well or illness?
How much are you missing out on?
Choices for a Happy Healthy New Year
What do you want MORE of in 2024? Or is a better question what do you want less of ?
To make room for more of something you will need to let go of something. Release those choices and things that are not supporting your health and wellness.
How about less fatigue, less pain, less anxiety, less weight, less depression, less inflammation, less sick days, less headaches, less bloating, less putting out fires, less clutter or less waste just to name a few.
What do you want more of in 2024?
ACCEPT what you cannot change -your age, your genetics, all your choices prior to today, what others think, what others say, what happens around you, the attitudes, beliefs, choices and perceptions of others.
CHANGE what you can change - your future choices of how you move, how much you sleep, what you consume, how you treat yourself, your responses to others through your words and actions, where you focus your time, energy and attention, how you let others affect you, your gratitude and how you demonstrate it.
Body Be Well Solutions offers a variety of different approaches for Making Healthy a Habit, One Choice at a Time. Not a diet – that is short term. Not even really big changes; sometimes its the smallest that have the greatest impact. Choices that actually change your lifestyle and get you on the road to health and happiness for good. Creating the resilience to get back on track during those occasions of getting sidetracked.
Actions are more powerful than words - take a look…

Autumn is known as the season of change - What does that mean to you?
One the most beautiful things about this time of year is the magnificent colors of the leaves on the various trees. The resulting falling of those leaves is just as beautiful.
Did you know that leaves falling is not about loss- it is about growth. When a tree sheds its leaves, the nutrients of the tree are withdrawing into the branches, the trunk and the roots. All in preparation for sustaining the Winter months and producing new growth in the Spring.
Does that provide you a different perspective on change?
Don’t fear change; change is growth -fear not changing.
What is your opinon of change?
Want more time in the day?
Are you caught up in the endless cycle of simply existing and mindlessly rolling through the urgent events in life?
Longing for an opportunity to experience and enjoy the important things?
You can have that. Its a thought process- that leads to an awareness and an opportunity for change. Taking the time to observe what you are busy with and charting out the cost and benefit.
Health Coaching is an opportunity to work this this with guidance.
Are you ready to take charge and focus on what is Important vs what is URGENT?
Focusing on What Really Matters - Vision Board Results
This Vision Board Workshop group included 4 seasoned Grandmas, 1 new Grandma, 1 new Mom, a Mom who also created a board with her a 2 year old daughter the morning after! So much FUN and what a simple yet powerful experience in focusing on what really matters in life!
While having an opportunity to take the time to make some connections to what was and is truly important; several strangers in the group made connections - supporting the value of community and how none of us are alone on this journey.
If you look closely… there is a Self-care theme on all of the boards. Stay tuned for future workshop offerings to move to… Making Healthy a Habit, One Choice at a Time!
“I was motivated by your holding this group workshop - it gave me an opportunity to give a lot of thought as to where I want to go in the next couple of years…you provided form and venue to my thoughts and made it happen for me; Thank You. Your enthusiasm is inspiring. I am grateful to have been apart of tonight’s group and to have been your client these past years. ”
