What's on your Journey?

As I sit and contemplate on the idea of being on a journey to better health and wellness, I always seem to veer back to the days that prompted me to begin in the first place. While in my college days I had little, if any, notion that I was living in complete disarray. My mind was the furthest thing away from living a life of wellness!

In my case I was knowledgeable of my family's history of high cholesterol, obesity, hypertension, and diabetes. All of these are some of the top dis-eases that plague the African American community. Even with the knowing I didn't do anything to be preventative. Taking for granted that I wouldn't become the next victim of these dis-eases walked me right into that trap. At the age of 27 I was diagnosed with high cholesterol and hypertension. Even with that being a reality I made moderate changes but nothing that would constitute a lifestyle overhaul.

Between being a student at Life University and landing in the lap of Team BeachBody , my eyes were opened to the world of health and fitness! While at Life University I began to learn what it was to walk in that lifestyle. Pretty much everyone on the campus lived by some kind of wellness regiment. Every aspect from veganism and vegetarianism to.professional natural bodybuilders existed. This influenced my thinking on holistic health a lot!

The hook for me getting into thr health and wellness industry came in the form of Team BeachBody. My first experience with BeachBody came through P90X. I lost a good bit of weight and even toned up some. After that I decided to become a Team BeachBody Coach because it provided me a lane to motivate people to get up and get to moving!

To make a long story short, this is the journey that allowed the vision of Life Flow Wellness to have life! If you are ready to begin a journey start with letting Life Flow Wellness become partner! You can begin by clicking on the Holistic Community link at the top of the page and creating a free account.

Salute to Health and Wellness!

Discipline: The Key to Real Change

Discipline is often described as training that corrects, molds, or perfects the mental faculties or moral character or control gained by enforcing obedience or order.  A number of people miss this concept when aiming to make changes in their lives. The concept of discipline is often mistaken as a word used to infuse punishment when on contrary it is the complete opposite! In fact the concept of discipline comes from a concept of wanting to have boundaries on areas that will keep you focused on your goals. Discipline is the direct result of focus and it prints the road map to get you to your goals!

So if you are gauged on setting some life changing habits, start with the concept of the theme of  DISCIPLINE!!! Making changes in workouts, nutrition, or lifestyle will point you to focus and discipline!!!

Salute to Health and Wellness!!!
