Guess what? The comeback is not always as strong as the setback. In fact I am jealous over the people I see that seem to make it look so effortless. They are high on life because they see differently, they accomplished their first marathon or got in the best shape of their life, climbed Everest or created an amazing product to help cancer patients. Now, don’t get me wrong I have had my moments but honestly, I have been aboard the struggle bus since 2015!

I was diagnosed with Colorectal Cancer in 2015, a few months after my 40th birthday. I was devastated. Why would this happen to me? I was the poster child of health & fitness in all the ways one can be “healthy". One thing I could come up with after months and months of agonizing and fighting this diagnosis, unwilling to accept the fate of living with a permanent colostomy bag after being inundated with poisonous chemicals and radiation….I had lived for 20 years with chronic inflammation and autoimmune disease.
My immune system was compromised from mono when I was a teen and the standard american college diet of processed foods & alcohol contributed to my gut permeability but this was misunderstood in the late 1990’s. So I adapted to chronic bloating, constipation, fatigue and pushed through changing my lifestyle and diet at 24 with very little change in symptoms and several GI doctors telling me to just eat more fiber (which I was).
Read MoreThe effects of grief and stress can create ripples through a person’s health and wellness that can endure for years.
During difficult times, it’s vital to set healthy goals to work toward that help you minimize these effects and keep
you on the path to healthy healing. Check out this list of four ways to do just that.
1. Make Time for Friends and Family
Extensive research over the years has found that the importance of healthy relationships on a person’s mental and
physical wellness cannot be overstated. According to Northwestern Medicine, those who nurture positive, reciprocal
relationships experience less stress, are able to heal better, exhibit healthier behaviors and enjoy a greater sense of
purpose. Research also shows that social ties help extend your years, with those who share healthy, loving
relationships of all kinds living longer.
Read MoreEvery moment even throughout a very mundane day, there is a struggle for equilibrium or balance. Like my first thought most mornings are "what can I cook today?" Then goes a series of mind monologs to arrive at a decision. Can I make 'this as breakfast '& 'that as lunch' while multi- tasking, yet get my husband & daughter to eat without nitpicking? Can I get it all done before my 7 am or 7.30 meeting? Can I do my meeting on phone if I don't meet my cooking and packing goals or am I on Video and can't multitask? Then there are more questions on nutrition, quantity, ingredients on which I'm mostly on autopilot with a decade or more in the kitchen. If meal planning for a day for my family is this big mind-monolog series, how much am I self conversing to keep it all together🤔?
Read MoreThough an overall fitness plan involves better eating and more physical activity, as well as setting aside some time for self-care, the most important thing you can do to get yourself moving in the right direction is to get your diet under control. Food is your body’s fuel, and how you feel and what you look like is a direct result of what you eat. If your goal is to lose weight and feel better, it has to start with nutrition.
Here are some tips to help keep you on the path to healthy eating, presented by Mosaic Fitness and Nutrition.

Feeling Lost in my life deepened my Faith at the age of 30. Fighting for the life I lost because of cancer disillusioned my Faith at the age of 40…

Many clients I work with experience chronic migraines, digestive issues such as IBS and SIBO, tendonitis, back pain, general anxiety,allergies and skin issues. For many an aspirin or various treatments have limits to relief and it leads to frustration, depression and an inability to reach overall general health.
