HAPPY MONDAY we choose to see each day as "good" or "bad" your choice determines your outcome! CHOOSE wisely!

One of my favorite "sayings" is "we make plans and God laughs" We have to remember it's not always about us.  Sometimes we just have to let go of the wheel!  
Image
  Life always seems to be flying by, slow down and take time to "smell the roses" There's no trophy for the "fastest"  Just keep going! Stay strong and keep moving! Have a great week!

It's never too late to start new!  There is a reason that our rearview mirror is much smaller than our front windshield!  Keep your eyes focused on what IS not what WAS! Happy Monday!

Thats the beauty of life-WE HAVE CHOICES We're in the drivers seat.  Life gives us certain circumstances, but we choose how we respond to them. HAPPY MONDAY

 We only fail when we fail to try!  So take that leap!   The unknown is sometimes scary, but you'll never know if you can do something if you don't try!                                                             YOU GOT THIS!

 Somebody reminded me that BIG changes come from a series of small things.  We need to celebrate all the "small wins" not just  the big ones!   Happy Friday!

Life is not perfect.  But we get to choose how we "play" the deck that we were dealt.  We are the author of our story we decide how it ends... Write a fairytale!

 Happy 2023! This year my goal is to simplify! when we get overwhelmed we get stuck! Be accountable to yourself-WRITE a "to do" list and check thing off! Keep it simple and you will succeed! WRITING works!  (journal, schedule, tasks)

                         "Stuff" gets old, broken, lost..., but memories last forever.  Collect those.                                                                    MERRY CHRISTMAS🎄

Today I want you to remember:  Almost everything that happens in your life,  happens because you made a choice!  You are the captain of your ship-you CHOOSE what direction that you go in! Happy Monday!

Happiness is something that we create!  Life is short so why do we choose unhappiness?  The first thing that it often linked to unhealthy habits and conditions is stress.  How do we decrease most stress?-                                                                         Choose HAPPY Easier said than done-We have to make it a habit, just like eating, exercising and taking our daily medications.                                                                          There is no HAPPY pill.                             ...

Social media is flooded with "inspirational quotes" Take each message with a grain of salt-be true to yourself. you don't answer to anyone in the social media world! we get a gift everyday-the sun rises! HAPPY MONDAY!

                                                                                                    TGIF                        Our mind is a powerful thing!  We have the power to determine our destiny! Our mind is another part of our body-we need to feed it.  The "better" foods we eat the better our body functions.  The same goes for our brains.  The more positive thoughts that we put in- the more positive outcomes we'll have! "I think I can, I think I can"-The Little Engine that Could Be nice to yourself💕    Have a good weekend

Halloween is fun-but remember to be safe.  Eat a snack before heading out, help resist temptation to nibble while trick or treating! Have fun!!

Sleep is a vital part of our health.  We spend so much time during the day trying to improve our health, we eat right, we exercise, but what about sleep?   The average adult needs 7-10 hours of sleep in order to "recharge" Many things get in the way of a "good" nights sleep-one of the is GERD (gastro endotracheal reflux disease).  This slant wedge available at www.your-medical-store.com, can help with that.

As a Nurse Practitioner I am good at "talking the talk", but that is hypocritical if I don't "walk the walk". SO- today I'm going for my mammogram! Breast Cancer is the #2 cause of cancer deaths! SO take an hour out of your "busy" schedule and get "the girls" squeezed, flattened, and pulled-it's better than the alternative. HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!

Sleep The idea of sleep is simple-yet so many of us don't "get it right" Sleep is a vital part of our health, not only physical, mental too!  A good night sleep can help us to combat and avoid serious illness, stay at a healthy weight, reduce stress, and make better decisions ( and many more things) Start by getting a good night sleep!

                                     We all have a superpower!  Share yours with the world!  Chronic illness are a part of us-they don't define us!  We all have something to share.  The illness just might change the way we share!                                               Our story can become someones play book! When we share with others we make ourselves happy and someone else-it's a win-win! Go out and share-your "stuff" might become someone elses treasure😂 When I was diagnosed with Spastic Paraplegia, I was so busy running around.  I was a nurse practitioner, and a single mom.  Now I have time to volunteer, be a state ambassador for the spastic paraplegia foundation, a brand ambassador,  and tutor young nursing students!    ...

Today is the first day of the rest of your life! We all have a story, the best part of that is we write it!  We may not be able to erase the begining, but we CAN write the ending! It's never too late to start! When I was diagnosed with this rare, chronic disease (HSP) I decided (after I had a pity party) to start a new chapter in my life.   It stinks that it often takes something "bad" to happen for us to to see all the "good". Have a great weekend, go on an adventure-start to re-write your ending!
