I went to doctor because I was so tired, Like. So tired. I was getting 8 hours of sleep… and I was still so tired.
I Cried. I Cried to a stranger after she said “oh maybe you’re just overwhelmed, business AND babies that’s probably a lot.”.
.
I made her take my blood.
.
The results came back… and I’m in no way kidding you, I was nutrient deficient.
.
That woke me up.
.
I had been living in a hole.
.
I was giving my babies my everything, I was giving my clients my everything, and I was giving my husband my pitiful left overs.
.
My business was thriving, and I was living in abundance….Grateful for all these beautiful things I was responsible for…But I was leaving myself, my health, my relationship with Jesus… all of them behind…. And it was catching up with me.
.
I missed me….happy Lindsey who felt good.
.
So the next day I loaded the babies up and went to the health food store to buy all the vitamins. This was my first step to shifting a little focus on my health, so I could FEEL capable of all I was responsible for. So I could FEEL joy in conquering the to do list and still have left over energy to enjoy these tiny babies and my husband.
.
The vitamins have helped tremendously, I’ve also slowly started working out. ( oh hay Jazzercise friends!) Not to look better….that train left the station a long time ago….but to FEEL better.
.
I started thinking though, if these simple things I’m putting in my body are changing so much, am I limiting myself? Am I just at the brink of how much better I could feel if I actually start making a conscious effort to chase after wellness?
.
So. Of course. Perfect time of year. The new year. I’m going to put some actual effort into nourishing my body.
.
So. If you want to join my team. If you want to invest in yourself. If you want to take tiny steps to stop feeling like a lazy, sore, snotty, tired, slug. Message me. Because we are capable of all the things people.
.
We can check off the to do list and still have energy left over, we just aren’t letting ourselves.
.
I have always used essential oils here and there for this and that, but I wanted to make them part of this new routine of wellness I’ve begun. I bought a starter pack for $160.. it has 11 oils that individually have at minimum 10 different uses, a diffuser, and a handful of samples of other things, and you get added to a Facebook group thousands strong who have used these oils daily and are way more knowledgeable than myself. (Which is really nice to learn from people who have gone down the road before you have.) I’m persistently learning about how to add essential oils to my day and am going to start showing you what they do for me and my family.
.
Anyone amped up to treat themselves better so they can treat those around them better? Let’s jump off the crazy ledge together k?
