Day 3: Pick a Pillar

Happy Day THREE:


One of my friends makes nature her "higher power" - when she wants to pray to something, she goes to a tree. Nature, as we know, has incredible healing powers; in BC there is a program called ParRX - doctors write prescriptions for nature, which has been proven to help lessen anxiety and stress, and improve cardiovascular health (walking is magic)


Nature isn't a pillar in the Healthy Six but it is a side-pillar: Our health benefits increase THREE times when we exercise in nature; walking meditation (and barefoot, even better)) are part of the program, and when was the last time you saw an epic sunset and didn't feel grateful?


Throughout the Healthy Six you will be prompted and inspired to exercise, to get outside more, to eat a Healthy Six diet, and to meditate and get rich sleep.

If it all feels too much, here is a suggestion: Pick a PIllar. Many past participants have found immense success picking a pillar and "nailing it."


For me, I want to nail walking in nature, more, eat vibrant fibre for my belly - get ready for LOTS of fresh veggie ideas - and sleep better.


When our souls come to centre , it is a process. There is always chaos before big, epic changes in your life.


It is the universe realigning to give you more of what you need.


What does that have to do with eating well and exercise?


Everything.


When we choose ourselves, we choose to take care of ourselves - body, mind and spirit.

Sorry for delay in email....you won't believe this but, my "fixed" washing machine just half-flooded my basement


I cried.

I freaked out.

I found a solution

I had greek yogurt with strawberry chia jam instead of a cookie

I am going for a walk after finishing a newsletter to get sunshine and positivity.


Life will continue to throw us all challenges.

Let's remind ourselves of our strength to face them.
