I didn’t want to write this yet but it is a success story that I need to share. I’ve been doing intermittent fasting for over a year. I was doing a 16:8 fast. This is where you fast for 16 hours and eat during a window of 8 hours. For me that window of eating was 11-7. I was never a big breakfast eater so it worked well for me although I wasn’t really losing weight from it despite my…
The last free training video of the series Right out of college Gabby Bernstein started her own PR business. When she transitioned her career to become a spiritual teacher, her marketing chops really came in handy! She got the attention of magazine editors, TV producers and big-time bloggers. She built an email list and a social media following to create a movement of Spirit Junkies. Gabby shared her story far and wide, manifesting media like Oprah’s SuperSoul Sunday, a front-page…
It was just before 8am on my clock and I couldn’t understand why my daughter didn’t come in to say goodbye yet. Her friend was picking her up by 8 to go to the airport. She and her two friends are going to Israel with Birthright https://www.birthrightisrael.com/about_us. They are supposed to be at the airport at 9 for a 1pm flight. Needless to say when I went into her room, she was still sleeping. Poor thing forgot to set her…
Right down the road from where I live now is a Boston Market. This restaurant has significant markers to the history of my multiple sclerosis. It was this restaurant that I was promoted to general manager. It was here when I was on the phone with my mother when she asked me how my eyes were. The question was about my optic neuritis which wasn’t diagnosed at that time. That was later figured out after my diagnosis. I remember when…
Over the years I’ve witnessed so many people gain the confidence to get out there, be heard and help others. People from all walks of life hear the call to take action. Teachers, lawyers, writers and many more people who want to bring spiritual principles into their lives and work. But as soon as we hear that call, fear jumps in the mix. You might wonder things like, “That sounds awesome… but is it realistic to expect to earn a…
My little sister is in from California today. Yippee. She has both my niece and nephew with her and I’m really excited to see them. It is hard having a sibling that is literally across the country. I don’t get to see her as often as I’d like. This is the one who is the closet thing I could have to a twin. She’s Jamie west and I’m Alyssa east. We just always seem to like the same things or…
I haven’t blogged about it but I’ve had serious back door chute issues this week. It seems the door is open and people come through unexpected or it stays closed and I can’t get them out. I went weeks with it open and now I went the complete opposite. My stomach was so bloated causing physical pain. It was great for my diet because I couldn’t over eat if I wanted too. My stomach could only hold so much food….
I want to thank my neighbors in my condo. I had a flat on my back rear passenger side tire. Someone noticed it and called the security booth for them to contact me. Since it was already dark I didn’t go downstairs to look at it but I asked my daughter to check it out when she came home. She confirmed it was really flat. Great. Luckily I bought on Amazon a cordless air pump for my wheelchair tires months…
Yesterday was a long day but a needed day for my hair to get through the summer easily. I get a product called Magic Sleek which is a permanent treatment that doesn’t necessarily keep my hair stick straight but keeps the frizzy out. Plus it makes it super easy to dry and style. I got to my hairdresser at 10 yesterday morning and left at 4. A long day. The treatment pulls out my hair color and this year we…
If you follow my blog you know I follow a spiritual path. A path that started when I picked up a book from Gabby Bernstein. I’ve been so fortunate that not only have I read everything by Gabby, I’ve been able to be a part of her Spirit Junkie Masterclass both 1 and 2. I’ve got to meet Gabby in an intimate setting, this unbelievable woman who changed my life. When you’re on a journey of spiritual growth and transformation,…
