Embracing Healthier Habits: Step-By-Step Guidance to Lasting Changes | As we step into a new year, the buzz around health and positive habits is everywhere. However, making lasting changes is often easier said than done - especially when navigating the complex journey of grief. I understand. I've walked that path, both personally and as a guide for many on this journey. Shake Off The Blues
If the holidays and the initial weeks of January have left you feeling a bit off-kilter, know that you’re not alone. Instead of dwelling on it, let’s step into February with intention and positivity.
Just like you, I allowed some of my daily habits to slip during the holidays; Now I am back home and fully in control again, I'm eager to return to them and even incorporate some new ones (because there’s always room for improvement, right!?).

For me, that means rebuilding from the firm foundation of my regular daily meal routine - the part of my day that feels like coming home.
We all have unique strengths, those little gems that make certain habits easier to embrace. Whether it's your love for early mornings, the joy found in a good workout, or the adventure in cooking …. let's build upon those strengths. | | |

It’s all about restoring the foundation on which to stack other helpful habits – one by one. Just like a house needs a solid foundation, or it would collapse. Remember, the only real failure is not trying or giving up on yourself! |

| A Fresh Outlook on Love The first email will arrive just before Valentine’s Day, a day that often intensifies our feelings of loss. I intentionally chose this moment to remind you that the meaning of love extends beyond receiving it from others; we can also give love to ourselves, easily forgotten in grief.
|  You deserve love and respect! |
| Embracing Change: Are you ready?
Life is a constant series of changes, and transformation often begins with the willingness to embrace it. While change can be scary, it’s also an opportunity to evolve from a state of fear and pain into a peaceful and more meaningful existence.
Reflect on your readiness for change, remembering the wisdom of the ancient Greek philosopher Socrates:
| | Reflection: On a scale of 1-10, how ready do you feel for small positive changes in your daily life right now? Action Steps: - Take a moment to acknowledge one area where you feel ready for positive change - it could be as simple as drinking more water or a mindset shift. - Consider putting your observations in a journal dedicated to this transformative journey you’re embarking on when you subscribe to my free email series.
If you need a little nudge, why not take the Wheel of Life Quiz here? Take a few minutes to confidentially answer key questions about your health, ‘me’-time, work, social life, and more. Your responses reveal a wheel highlighting any areas that could benefit from your renewed focus to restore harmony in your life.

To hope, healing and love!
