Gluten Free Perhaps?

Have you ever felt fuzzy mentally and a just a little bit off after eating certain foods? Wonder what this whole gluten thing is all about? As many of you know, I've transformed my health and my life by making simple changes to my diet and my lifestyle. Each time I mastered one little thing I moved onto something else. I am not at the point where certain things like breads and wheat products may be contributing to foggy or fuzzy thinking. The best thing about this whole process is that I found a resource that I will be using for the next 30 days. It's a guide to gluten free eating which I learned will also help with emotional eating. Now...I don't have any issues with emotional eating at this point but I know that many of you out there do. If you'd like to join me now or in the future in learning about gluten free eating, contact me via website or blog post. You can always call too at 716 410 4504. I'd be happy to talk with you about gluten free. In the meantime, be well. Mary Jo

Yoga Studio Open

Last night I opened Hot Yoga Fredonia in lovely downtown Fredonia, NY. After our first one hour class we enjoyed hot tea from Wishberry, a little trendy yogi store located in the same building as the yoga studio. A huge thank you to everyone who came to the first class. While there was lots to learn for everyone, including me, I enjoyed meeting everyone and am so excited for our next class and for the remainder of this year's offerings. Stay tuned for new happenings and health and nutrition offerings from the studio. All the best! Mary Jo

Back From Holiday for the Holiday!

Hello my wonderful friends! I have just returned from a much needed rest in South Beach Miami and Mexico. I went on a beautiful cruise and enjoyed floating and enjoying the sunshine and the views. And of course with today being Thanksgiving, I am rested and rejuvinated for the holiday. My wish for you this Thanksgiving is for you to have gratitude for all the we have and to send love and peace to others so that they can find gratitude and love in everything they see. Enjoy your turkey and all the fixins :-) Be sure to go into those meals with a sense of balance and mindfulness so you can enjoy the evening to the fullest! Peace. MaryJo

Rest and Relaxation

When is the last time you took a vacation? If you're like me, you work very hard on a regular basis and could use a vacation every three or four months. But to be practical, one or two vacations per year is likely what happens. For me, it's been about a year since I last took a week long holiday. In just two days, I'm leaving for Mexico to get some sunshine, sleep and solitary time. Vacation to me has become a necessity, not a luxury. When I return I'll be sharing some of my island experiences with you. In the meantime, take a moment to share with me your last vacation experience! I'd love to hear from you.

BLUE PEARL YOGA

Last week while being away I found a cute little yoga studio. Actually, the facility was quite impressive as it was held in a very old Masonic Hall on Main Street in Batavia. Blue Pearl Yoga Studio owner Karen Reisdorf is the founder and instructor at the studio. Karen received her training at various places including Kripalu Institute in Massachusetts. I thoroughly enjoyed the class and felt very welcome by other students as well. And of course the hot tea was perfect! If you live in or near Batavia, her class is definately worth checking out! Thanks Karen!

CATCHING UP

Being away on business can take a toll on your home and office organization. Boy do I know this! I've been away on business for almost two weeks and the feeling of getting home and catching up can be daunting at times. One tip that I use to stay on track is doing just one thing at a time. Oh, I've had times when I've tried to do "multitasking" but from a practical and healthy standpoint, multitasking is not healthy. The brain cannot effectively handle more than one thing at a time. Think about it...years ago when our grandparents were alive there was no such thing as multitasking. Sure you can go ahead an multitask, and you will definately look like you multitask. Stress, confusion, forgetfulness and a feeling of heaviness can result from overload with multitasking. So the next time you are faced with having to mutitask, make a healthy choice. Try one thing at a time and see how productive and healthy you really can be! If you're feeling really overwhelmed from your daily tasks, give me a call and schedule your free health consultation.
