Soon, I will offer a webinar on “Introduction to Kick-Start to Wellness.” Due to my own user error, the Thursday evening webinar did not record properly to offer you a replay that many have asked for.  My apology as my head and my heart were with my daughter knowing that her labor was going to be induced Friday morning.  If you are interested in participating, please send me an email to ljackson@carpediemwellness.org and I will send you the login information for the call when rescheduled.

But first, I want to share with you my own personal motivation, pictures of my new Grandson, proud Daughter and Son-in-Law!16-01-10 MilesBrackenJan01092016

Love heals and the gift of childbirth is the ultimate expression of love. The joy and hope felt is so nourishing and motivating for me to be the best I can be for him, as well as myself, so I can be a witness to his life as long as I am able to.  I am also reminded of my own personal challenge to practice my own self-love. 

The challenge for me is to create a daily ritual and practice loving myself as much as I love my children and now my first-born grandchild.  Many mothers can attest to the indescribable pride and love that is felt in our hearts when we first meet our newborn child.  A heart in love is physiologically different than a heart that is filled with fear, pain or anger.  Different chemicals are emitted to the body creating either ease or dis-ease. All things are possible with love, even miraculous healing as Bernie Siegel, MD writes about in the Art of Healing.

This is why a daily practice of self-love and self-care is so vital to health and healing. For many of us, this can be challenging. This could be because we are conditioned in our society to be self-sacrificing, or maybe we’ve never been taught, or maybe this is just a practice we want to cultivate. Part of my advanced teacher training for yoga therapy requires that I create my own Sadhana or self-care ritual so that I can walk the walk and I am personally looking for community support and accountability to share in this journey.

If any of this speaks to you then please join me when the webinar is rescheduled  to learn more about my goal to support myself and you while we tackle our own Kick-Start program and resolutions for the New Year. This will include personal assessment and 30 minute 1:1 call with me, self-health tools, recipes, online webinars and group support. This call will be my gift to you.

Carpe Diem & Namaste,
