Can extract sunshine from a cloudy day!

Join the great company of those who make the barren places of life fruitful with kindness. Carry a vision of heaven in your hearts, and you shall make your name,your college, the world, correspond to that vision. Your success and happiness lie within you. External conditions are the accidents of life, its outer wrappings. The great, enduring realities are love and service. Joy is the holy fire that keeps our purpose warm and our intelligence aglow. Resolve to keep happy, and your joy and you shall form an invincible host against difficulty. ~ Helen Keller

LIFESTYLE, WELLNESS, BEAUTY

Hello and welcome to my LIFESTYLE, WELLNESS AND BEAUTY PAGE!! :D

I'm going to try ( try being the word, lols!) being organized by year when I can, but this page is a random compilation of articles that fall under my wellness and health days, my trial and error  'outfits of the day, haha(!), my beauty adventures (very simple mostly) and my quirky shopping finds.

2016 has been quite the challenge for me. That was the year I turned 48 and had strange bouts of prolonged allergies and anxiety attacks. It was a weird year of health challenges, but I'm very grateful to have pulled through it. Looking back, I can say it was brought on by this particular phase and age of mid-life I'm in - that of being months close to 50.

Today is October 2017 and I've launched into a personal wellness and beauty journey, the goal of which is strength, stamina, and clarity of mind. I desire to be stronger than ever before, and dare I say it, but to have my 50's and beyond be the breathing glowing years of life. The path is to be one with the best choices in terms of physical and mental flow and to be an encouragement to those who know the true me. I've never had the courage to don a two piece swimsuit in my younger years, I don't know why, so in response I'm doing a "Bikini Challenge," the goal of which is to see tone and muscle and strength. It may seem trivial to others, but I know this challenge will greatly affect my health positively.


Meanwhile, you are welcome to click on my past and present challenges and wins. I hope you find it inspiring in some way.

2017 HEALTH & WELLNESS

1. THE SWEET POTATO SOUL LADY 
*This October 2017 article is about that darling YouTube lady that inspires me! 

Right now, I'm sipping organic Echinacea Tea which I bought from my favorite organic store, Healthy Options but is available online as well. The brew is calming my senses and unclogging my sinuses. I'll lay off on the coffee and stick to caffeine free tea for the rest of the week. For good measure I'm mediating later. I don't have candles but calming music will ground me.

Regrettably, I slacked off from my workout which was gaining ground a week ago. At seven am today, before the husband left, he candidly reminded me of my routine and added I looked svelte the last time we went out last Friday. Flutter eyes me, haha!

2, SETTING THE TONE FOR THE NEXT THREE MONTHS
* A positive affirmation of what I want to accomplish in terms of health and wellness the coming months.

Perhaps I should start filling up that travel and eats page in the bar above, because here I am with a cup of sweet hot decaf coffee typing away, till later I presume. Those travel articles will have to wait for a moment. Right now I prefer inspiration to prod me towards action. I'm in my 
rubber shoes you see, geared up good and quite willing to start my exercise regime.

Quite willing. I say, because, let's face it, I'd rather be doing something else than huff and puff. No, it isn't easy and I am my own worst enemy at times, but I have a goal, and am internalizing how powerful I would feel once I hit that glorious day I can say I am the fittest I have ever been!







2018 The Year of ZEST!

It's going to be "art a day" no if's no buts!

2018 has a zesty come on for me with all the juiciness and overflowing feels of creativity.  I've stomped the dust off my boots from all eeks' of the past; forward and inspired is my aura.
