Adventures of Health, Wellness and Balanced Lifestyle

This week I want to ask you all about INTENTIONS/PRIORITIES.  In short this means to make a plan to do something but how many of us really follow through?  How many of us really take the time needed to get things done on a daily basis?  I love this exercise that I do with clients it brings fourth so many things that really are daily items that we all should be doing in life.  Im not perfect at this but every day I write my daily intentions/ priorities on a list to make sure that Im getting them all done and also I hold myself accountable.  Like many of us out there we don’t have a ton of hours packed into the day for down time but Ive found writing these lists have been extremely helpful for me.  Interestingly enough I used to say I dont have time to get things done, but wait 24 hours is a very long time, the same time of everyones day.  After I write down my intentions/priorities.  Keep the lists to 3-6 items a day, you’ll start to notice a patt...

I started my health journey around the age of 13.  I was playing with friends in the snow and could barely breath! This was the first time I had an asthma attack, and up until this point I was relatively healthy growing up except for the routine cold, flu or ear infection.  Asthma? Hmmm interesting. Basically to narrow it down, you can't breathe. But the doctors were also saying things like "overweight, poor diet and allergy shots!" As a kid I was very scared, so naturally I was trying to figure out what was going to happen.  They ended up gaving me an inhaler to use daily which seemed to work well until there was physical activity involved. When I would run I would get winded easily, so then I wouldn't want to run because I would be embarrassed that I would have to take my medicine in front of people.  I ended up in the hospital a few dozen times for asthma and as it progressively got worse I got more and more upset that I was letting my as...
