A Health Coach is a supportive mentor and wellness authority who works with clients to help them feel their best through food and lifestyle changes. Instead of prescribing one diet or way of exercising, Health Coaches tailor individualized wellness programs to meet their clients' needs.

Relationships, exercise, career, and spirituality are just as important to your health as the food you eat. Health Coaches understand this and take a holistic approach to supporting the whole person. Find out how health coaching stacks up against other health and wellness jobs.

It is now summer! Although this week had a rather rainy start. Since our spring was so dry, it was much needed. We have gone already through an eclipse, and now a full moon. Many have already taken or will be taking vacations soon. This is such a pivotal time to do this. After being basically homebound for a year and a half, many stir crazy families are very much looking forward to going somewhere and even visiting family they have not seen in a long time!

It is the time of year that the days have begun to get shorter already. You may have noticed that it is staying dark longer in the morning, and the sun is going down sooner in the evening. This could give you a good opportunity to reset your sleep schedule.

One important aspect of good health remains in getting adequate sleep. This is something that for many reasons a majority struggle with. You may have trouble shutting down your mind at night to go to sleep. You may wake frequently during the night, or even having trouble going back to sleep. Then in the morning you will wake feeling even more tired than when you went to bed. There are many other more subtle symptoms of poor sleep quality.

Importance of Self-Care for the Holidays

The Holidays can be so stressful and draining for so many reasons not least of which is preparing & planning, holiday parties, holiday related expenses, seasonal weather, lack of sunshine, increased exposure to the rush & fury of shopping, not to mention the friends and relatives that may test your patience. 

 

     So this month I am sharing with you some ways in which you can re-energize, restore, build resilience and hopefully have a better more enjoyable holiday season!

 

     Practicing Self-Care is important all year long. The busyness of the holidays can cause us to let self-care slide, and set us up for decreased ability to fight off seasonal colds and flu's as well as other immune conditions. This can exacerbate chronic diseases and conditions, making us much more miserable by the holiday season's end. 

 

     Some main key self-care items are adequate sleep, staying well hydrated, getting fresh air, adding in fresh fruits and vegetables, finding time to meditate, journal, or some other quiet activity to just tune out of what's around you and tune into yourself, and last but not least adding more laughter into your life.

Have you ever heard the saying "You have to take care of yourself before you can take care of others."?  I am not sure when that saying began, but it is much like the Airline instructions of placing your oxygen mask on yourself before your children. If you do not give yourself what you need, it becomes very difficult if not impossible to give care to others. This holds true for anyone in any kind of position or career. Myself being a mother and Nurse and Health Coach, if I do not make sure my basic needs are met, as well as replenished, my fire can burn out too quickly, and then it becomes difficult to maintain stamina to take care of everyone else in my life. I also find that in trying to help others when my own stores are depleted I tend to carry more resentment towards others and the situation I am in.
