Simplicity Is A Sign Of Growth

/in , , , , , , /by

“Going Back To A Simpler Life Is Not A Step Backward” – Yvon Chouinard

The implication of this quote is that achieving a simpler life is not  a reflection of failure because you are releasing your stuff.  In fact, letting go is a sign of growth and can help balance out your body, mind & environment.  How so you may ask?   Because making the choice to “let go” allows you to move forward with life.  This is a healthy decision.  The process then of letting go improves your overall wellness.

It takes courage to simplify one’s life and be free of things you may have considered important or special at one time.  Recognizing that your things may no longer be serving you (and can actually be holding you back from living life to the fullest) is a true sign of personal growth. There’s a lot to be said about a person who can relinquish the old and welcome the new – even if they aren’t sure what that may look like.

I see way too often people who struggle with the notion that “letting go” is somehow a sign of weakness. This can be to their detriment as it propels them into a chronic state of fear because they feel as if they are “losing” or “giving up” something. But you see there is no loss with simplicity. Simplicity offers freedom of all that was but no longer is. So how can one lose when one becomes free? You simply cannot.

The process of purging one’s life is powerful. A process fully embellished with tender moments of self-discovery. It’s as if you get to experience your very own internal treasure hunt.  Tell me, what’s more beautiful than that?

If you are looking for ways to simplify and balance out your life, my book Organically Yours will be a great read for you.

For The Busy Entrepreneur

/in , , , , , , /by

From one entrepreneur to another, does all the time you put into growing your business ever overwhelm you to the point where you feel stressed, burnt out, disorganized, and cluttered?

I was there not too long ago myself. In fact, my daughter was constantly chastising me for never getting up from my desk and giving myself a break. “Mom, unglue yourself for a while,” she’d say. “Give yourself time to replenish and reboot,” she’d say. But did I listen? No. Then I had a health crisis that I couldn’t ignore because it was speaking to me loud and clear.

Through that experience (and much by default!), I learned some difficult, yet extremely valuable lessons that have put me in a completely different spot today. For instance, I discovered that I needed to make my health and wellness a top priority or I would certainly lose them both. I also learned the value behind nourishing my body, keeping a positive attitude, and staying organized in my environment – no matter where I was in the business process – so I could be the best coach, speaker and mom that I could be!

If you’re interested in learning how you can implement these same types of strategies in your life, giving you some much-needed peace (and energy) as a busy entrepreneur, I’d love to jump on the phone for a few minutes and chat.

Why am I reaching out to my fellow business owners? Because I’m on a serious mission to help as many people as possible in my profession so they don’t find themselves in the same position I was…where their career is impacting their health.

Even if you’re hesitant, unsure whether this is the right path for you, well, heck, get with me anyway and let’s brainstorm all of your options! If a customized coaching program will help, great! Let’s set it up! If not, then let’s figure out what will help and get you started on it right away so you start to feel better physically, mentally, and emotionally!

If you’re ready to change your life (and your health), just email me @ [email protected] and we’ll schedule a call.

And if I don’t hear from you, I understand and wish you a long and super-successful career! Just take care of yourself…before someone else has to take care of you!

You Don’t Have To Be Forced Into Wellness

/in , , , , , /by

Too many of us wait until a crisis occurs before we take action. Take me for example. I didn’t know that I would wake up one morning and be in for the shock of my life. But it happened! That experience forced to become my own health detective and advocate due to the pressure constraints and lack of immediate knowledge. I don’t want that to happen to you!

“Many Americans live an unhealthy lifestyle, not by choice, but because of a lack of education as to what they need to do to maintain a healthy lifestyle. A lack of education about being healthy and well, as well as a lack of motivation to get employees to “engage” in healthy behavior is one of the largest problems the United States faces.”
(Source: According to the Corporate Health & Wellness Association)

The truth of the matter is, preventative care is the key to wellness. Not to sound like a broken record here, but again, I had no idea that the foods I was ingesting were breaking down my body instead of building it up. I learned so much on a fast tracked basis on how to heal my body and what I should and should not be doing. There were things I knew were far more healthier for me, but I didn’t know what or how it would personally affect me. That’s why I am passionately trying to share with you this information as best as I can. I don’t want you to suffer like I did!

Don’t wait until you are forced into wellness – be proactive – empower yourself and learn what you can do right now to change the course of your health and life.  Check out my latest video…then see for yourself. If you think my book can help you then go ahead and grab the book for only $1.00 for a limited time offer:

Grief, Deep Grief, Can Make Decluttering Painful.

/in , , , , , , , , , , , /by

Sometimes during the process of decluttering we can unearth unexpected memories, which can be very emotional.  Old photographs, music and art can trigger an old memory of trauma like a romantic break-up or divorce, a loss of a career, an empty nest or the loss of a loved one.

Grief, deep grief, can make the decluttering process especially painful.  Sometimes a grieving person will choose to declutter ruthlessly in an attempt to remove the pain caused by the loss. Better to have empty room than to face a constant reminder of what I lost.

Mentally, they decide that it would be preferable to have it done, in a sort of ’emotional amputation.’  For others, they are simply not ready.  When they try to get rid of something that belongs to the loved one, it is like that person is dying all over again.  If you are grieving, please be compassionate with yourself.

HOW ARE YOU SPENDING YOUR TIME?

HOW ARE YOU SPENDING YOUR TIME?

You spend your time wisely if you spend your time organizing!

The time you invest in getting yourself organized will give you a substantial return on your investment.  For example, you can locate your important items at a moment’s notice, because you now know where everything is.  You will save time and peace of mind by establishing a home  for your belongings, rather than frantically searching for your stuff and getting all stressed out.  It’s not a particularly warm and fuzzy feeling when you’re racing against the clock trying to find something that is lost in space.  So to quote dear Ben Franklin, “For every minute spent organizing, an hour is earned.” ~ Amen

WHY HAVING A PLAN IS HEALTHY!

Why Having A Plan Is Healthy!

Did you know one of the reasons why a person’s environment gets cluttered is because they never learned certain life skills?

For example:

  • How does someone make a bed in the morning?
    How is dirty laundry taken care of?
    What is the right way to clean up after a meal?
    How is a bathroom kept clean and fresh?

The good news is that these are all teachable skill sets. However, without these skills set in an organized system, the individual is left to “make it up as they go along,”usually making things more complicated than necessary and causing undue stress.

This is exactly the reason why having a plan is healthy. Can you see how following an organized system can help you have a fresh, clean environment? Not to mention how much time you will save and the peace of mind it will provide.

If you would like to learn my proven strategies to living an organized life, you should grab a copy of my new book, Organically Yours; Open Yourself To A Vibrant Healthy Life Through Clean Living.

Does Your Home Feel Inviting To Guests?

/in , , , , , , , /by

Does your home feel inviting to guests? A fresh, free environment says to me, ‘Welcome to our home…come on in and sit a spell.’

 

Having a home where we can easily find our things, that is aesthetically pleasing and we feel proud to live in, does wonders for our well-being.

It’s not about having a perfect home (there’s no such thing). It is however about bringing out the best in ourselves so we live freely and comfortably in our dwelling. Doing our best to create a neat and tidy environment is clean, healthy living at its best. Add green plants, organic natural products and air purifiers and- well, maybe ‘perfect’ isn’t that far out of reach.

It has been proven that a messy, disorganized home creates mental stress. This puts additional stress on our body. When our home is functional, it makes it much easier to keep our mind in a positive place. Staying in a healthy mindset helps us carve out the time to nourish our body and get proper rest.

Did this post intrigue you?  To learn more about how you can have a fresh, free environment grab a copy of my new book, Organically Yours: Open Yourself To A Vibrant Healthy Life Through Clean Living.  For only $1.00 plus S&H you can get it delivered straight to your home and begin decluttering right away.
