Happy Fabulous New Year!

I hope 2018 brings you all the things your heart desires
Love, Health, Prosperity, Peace and Grace.

Most people are starting off the New Year with
a resolution and the majority of the resolutions are
to "Go on A Diet and lose weight".

I have nothing against New Years resolutions and think
they are excellent ways to begin new programs and set
new habits for yourself.

The only thing is programs and habits fade and the
novelty wears off and most people seem to be back in the same
place where they started after a few months.

I do understand though that some people actually keep on
the program and keep the new habit so not being Negative on the
subject

I am not a personal fan of the word Diet. If you have
read my book "Get To Your Natural State of Weight"
you will understand that by telling yourself you are
"On a Diet" your body seems to crave everything it
cannot have.

There is nothing worse that being focused on the things
you cannot have. Why not focus on What you Can Have?

So I no longer use the word Diet, and changed it to
Lifestyle.

Why not start your New Year off with a commitment to
having a Healthier Lifestyle?

Learn how to eat the proper balance of Alkaline vs. Acidic
foods and start feeling the difference in your energy,
aches and pains and recognize how your body reacts when you
eat processed and sugary foods.

Learn and understand how stress and your emotions
affect how you feel and how your body keeps on weight
when you are emotionally stressed.

It's not always about what you are eating that
makes you gain weight or feel terrible.
It can be the toxic people you are around
or the situation you are dealing with.

Do your best in 2018 to eliminate the negative
people in your life and stop trying to fix everyone
and everything.

Stop worrying so much about what other people think
and about what you think. How you feel, what your needs
are and how to be kind to yourself.

You deserve to feel vibrant and alive each day.
I call this process "Getting To Your Natural
State of Weight" - when everything inside is in sync
and performing at its optimal strength.

It's a process and it takes some time to learn.
Once you understand what foods work best for you
and how it all affects your pH level you will find
it much easier to create the Healthy Lifestyle
you deserve

There are many blogs on my website which you can begin
with to get yourself started. Or if you wish you can
purchase the book "Get To Your Natural State of Weight"
on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Get-Your-Natural-State-Weight/product-reviews/0992045207/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_show_all_btm?ie=UTF8&reviewerType=all_reviews

It's a quick read with a pH list of foods to get your started

Please feel free to email me if you have any questions as
well.

I am happy to help get you started.

Remember to Always Be Fabulous!

Excellent article by Healthy Holistic Living on why so many of us now
have food allergies and our grandparents didn't.

Nutrition affects EVERY cell in our body.
The health of our cells is dependent on diet and lifestyle.

Cells create tissues; tissues create organs,
and we are made up of a system of organs.

If your nutrition is inadequate, the integrity of each cell,
tissue, and organ in your body will suffer.
Thus you may be MORE sensitive to certain foods.

MEMORY FROM A COOK BOOK

As I was searching for a cookie recipe from my mom’s cook book
a small piece of paper dropped out of it.

It was odd as I have opened this cook book before and nothing fell out.
However today marking the 1 year of my mother’s passing I found it
comforting and it made me smile.

Here is what it says:

Mother’s never die- They just keep house up in the sky.
When we are children, we are happy and gay,
And our mother is young and she laughs as we play.
Then as we grow up she teaches us truth,
And lays life’s foundation in the days of our youth.
And then it is time for us to leave home,
But her teachings go with us wherever we roam.
For all that she taught us and all that we did,
When we were so often just a bad little kid.
We will often remember and then realize,
That mothers are special and wonderfully wise.
And as she grows older, we look bad with love,
Knowing that mothers are Gifts from above.
And when she goes home to receive her reward,
She will dwell in God’s Kingdom and Keep house for the Lord.
Where she’ll LightUp the stars that shine through the night,
And keep all the moon beams sparkling and bright.
And then with the dawn she’ll put the darkness away,
As she scours the sun to new brilliance each day.
So dry tears of sorrow, for mothers don’t die,
They just move in with God and Keep house in the sky.
And there in God’s Kingdom, mothers watch from above,
To welcome their children with their undying love

Thank you mom xo, Love you

Luv Wendy

I always love this time of year with
all the Hallmark Channel Christmas Movies.

It is so easy to get caught up in the
emotions with a hot chocolate in your
hand and your love by your side.

After watching Journey Back to Christmas
I found myself thinking of this line in
the movie

"Even the smallest stone makes a ripple in the water"

This poem is by an Unknown Author however it fits
the line from the movie

You just never know how powerful you can be with
just one small ripple.

Enjoy!

PEBBLE IN THE WATER

Drop a pebble in the water,
just a splash, and it's gone;
But there's half a hundred ripples
circling on and on and on,

Spreading, spreading from the center,
flowing on out to sea.
And there is no way of telling
where the end is going to be.

Drop a pebble in the water;
in a minute you will forget,
But there's little waves a-flowing
and there's ripples circling yet,

And those little waves a-flowing
to a great big wave have grown;
You've disturbed a mighty river
just by dropping in a stone.

Drop an unkind or careless word:
in a minute it is gone;
But there's half a hundred ripples
circling on and on and on,

They keep spreading, spreading,
spreading from the center as they go,
And there is no way to stop them,
once you've started the flow.

Drop an unkind or careless word:
in a minute you forget;
But there's little waves a-flowing,
and there's ripples circling yet.

And perhaps in some sad heart
a mighty wave of tears you've stirred,
And disturbed a life that was happy
where you dropped that unkind word.

Drop a word of cheer and kindness:
just a flash and it is gone;
But there is half a hundred ripples
circling on and on and on,

Bearing hope and joy and comfort
on each splashing, dashing wave,
Till you wouldn't believe the volume
of the one kind word you gave.

Drop a word of cheer and kindness:
in a minute you will forget;
But there's gladness still a-swelling,
and there's joy circling yet.

And you've rolled a wave of comfort
whose sweet music can be heard,
Over miles and miles of water
just by dropping one kind word.

Remember to Always Be Fabulous!

Luv Wendy

It's hard to believe it has been 5 years now
since There Comes A Time was launched.

This poem is so dear to my heart and I am so

lives.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me
Love you xo

If you get to choose your attitude today...

Why not make it FABULOUS!

Take time to listen to what your body is truly
asking of you.

Love yourself at no matter what weight you are.

Everything is happening for a reason :)

There are many effects of bereavement that can strike while you are coping with grief of
a loved one passing. For me it has been an ongoing challenge with my weight after my
best friend/mother passed recently.

Due to a high release of cortisol from the stress and crying it doesn't even matter how little
I eat or how much I watch what I eat... the weight still finds its way to by butt.

I guess it's a process as everyone keeps saying. Time is the only thing that will help
As you go through your life in a new normal it someone never feels the same.

All I can say is do your best with what you have and you will know when the right time
is for you to make a change. Don't be hard on yourself during the process. It is what
it is. Losing my mother has been the hardest thing I have ever had to endure

Many other grief symptoms are very unnatural and scary, and can even be bizarre. But almost all of them are perfectly normal! No, you're not losing your mind... just going through a normal and healthy grieving process.

Here is a great article sharing the following effects of bereavement.

I hope it helps.

"I'm exhausted!"-- the physical signs and symptoms of grief

"Are you sure I'm not going crazy?"-- emotional and mental symptoms

"Where are all my friends?" -- social changes

"So where was God during all of this?" -- spiritual challenges

"Is this bizarre, or what?" -- unusual experiences

"Do I need help?" -- warning signs that professional help is needed
