Straighten UP refers to much but you might remember your mom saying to you ‘sit up straight’ when sitting in a chair. You may have heard ‘straighten up your room, it is like a hurricane came through.’ It may be the case as a youngster (can be any age really), you heard ‘straighten UP’ as in straighten up your act (actions).
Whether it is straighten UP your belongings or your posture or your act, it is an opportunity to shake your head UP and down and to get into action. There are reasons why we do anything.
Your choice. Since our body and our surroundings affect our overall well-being and those around us, choices are to take the bull by the horn and step into feeling like you matter.
You Matter
You do matter. Is it time to ponder how you see your life to be? Be curious. Be brave. Be willing and open. Your choice…one of your powers.
First or last steps, the journey, your journey is unique to you. We begin our first steps at around the first birthday but there are many steps and choices to make along the way (some more or less than others). Some choices do include the experiences as part of the journey while part of the journey teaches us. Did you take a detour…it was meant to be. If it happened, it was meant to be so you can see where to step next or not. Your choice always.
Affirmation
Instead of waiting for someone to tell you to ‘Straighten UP,’ have some fun and play a game with yourself. Say out loud ‘time to straighten up’ and do so three times with each time being more passionate than the first like you have the hang of it. Experiences is part of the journey to grow…you are not alone where you are, where you have been and where you are going.
What would you like to ‘straighten UP’? Perhaps a list of three things that you want to do and to practice. If any other thoughts slip in just say to your mind ‘straighten UP’ and continue to do so as required. Afterall, this is the power you have. The choice is yours to make changes.
Straighten UP
Immediately, my posture bends into place. The ‘to do list’ grabs the pen while the ideas flow. What works for you is what works for you. Some tools are grand to get you going. Only appreciation for the little things and the teachings that came along the journey.
Have fun, laugh at the comedy acts – that’s me spilling something – and take the time to get familiar with what you do and think. Leave judgment to straighten up while you be gracious with your transition. Judgments may play a part of why we do or not do. Heaven forbid I do not act or dress the way that others think I should. For much of my life, gray hair was a no no so I made it a thing to put the dye away for good before I turned 50 years old and let my hair grow in. Sometimes the things we do gives others the motivation to do so, in their own good time. It matters only if you wish it to matter, and lots of things do not matter.
Keep me posted.

Champion for your better health…
Before the age of 20, it never dawned on me that what I chose to put in my mouth would have such a dramatic effect on my well being.
On my path of discovery, I learned that our eating choices directly affected how much energy we have first thing in the morning or that it would build our immune system strength during flu season. Part of it was coming to understand how gentle nutritional cleansing directly helped overcome my health challenges. People keep telling me how beautiful my skin is or how I look younger.
As my studies continued, it became obvious that there is an intrinsic connection between the mind, body, and spirit which directly affects our health and happiness. Omegas are another critical piece of the wellness puzzle. The Auum omegas alone turned on some switches in my brain in just one day.
I have developed a deep appreciation for the wonderful miracle workers our bodies are in the recovery process. Our bodies have natural intelligence. I am passionate to share the connection between nutrition and wellness in my practice and my presentations.
