This is a test of embedding a video in my Blog

Today I did a live video on facebook about "Food Talk". I am going to try and make this a daily chat to chart my healthier eating and living through the Kangan Water. So I thought I would like to post them here too! This is today's Live Talk!

 

Today's first meal, Brunch, is a sliced Roma Tomato and Pea Pods with 2 Hard Boiled Eggs. I had a Honey BBQ to dip it in. Oh and of course Uno got the Yolks.

Working a Home Business!

I have been remiss. I let life get in front of my working for myself. I get onto our morning motivational calls, but it's hard to make myself take them to heart. And that is on me! Today I realized what I have been doing. I was self destructing instead of working and motivating myself.

It is easier to wallow in what is going wrong. But I shall wallow no more!! LOL Again, I can talk the talk, but time for me to walk the walk!

So this morning's call was what gave me the kick in the pants I needed. It was just one line that struck me the hardest. "You are only competing with yourself!" WOW! So true. And I was failing myself with letting things stop me. Needing to move and verifiable income and all are transitory. The big important thing is knuckling down and working my business.

For me, business is promoting healthier living through healthy water. So simple! I forget myself and allow outside forces to overwhelm my thoughts. I forget that what I have can help me and others to grow and live happier, healthier and even wealthier lives.

My goal for this year is to continue losing weight. Network my work at better health into getting more people to try the water and get their device that will give them the same ability to better health and wealth too!

I am putting this out there to give me a sense of accountability. You now know that I am committing to my business. So when you see me and my bottle of water, you are going to see a woman newly vitalized and enthused with life and promoting Healthy Live Water to all I meet! Ask me to share my secret with you! You will be amazed at how such a simple change can do so much for you too!

Cooking Healthier with Kangen Water

So I have started cooking healthier since I am now using the Kangen Water! It isn't just for drinking. The big change is washing all my produce with the 11.5 water to completely remove all pesticides from the food. This also improves the flavor and life of the produce.

 

For this meal I used Leeks, Yukon Gold Potatoes and Cauliflower in the soup base that I made. All washed with the water before using. I also used some of the 9.5 water in the cooking. This helps to bring out the best flavors in everything I cook. It takes less seasoning too.

Then I did the individual serving meal made from this base with added Kale, Lil' Smokies Sausages and Kiefer Goat's Milk. So yummy and very healthy.

The Lesson of Uptown Funk

I learned a lesson at an event recently, one that I didn't know I still needed to learn!

"I am not a spring chicken anymore !"

There, I said it!

What do I mean? Well, I have been feeling so energetic since changing my life, my water and losing weight, I forgot myself and gave in to the urge to push my limits over the weekend just before Thanksgiving ! I was just having so much fun! In my head I was in my 20's and able to do anything ! In reality I just turned 57 and have been recovering from torn muscles in my left leg since June.

So what did i do to bring on this revelation ? I succumbed to the undeniable siren song of "Uptown Funk"!

In reality I just wiggle danced. You know, stand in one place and just rock back & forth! But in my head I was jamming like the guy who treadmill dances to the song! LOL https://youtu.be/IWu9o5zrj3g

So lesson learned! I will be content for a while to let others do the dancing! I will just toe tap from my chair and sing along for now! 

But it was so fun!!!

Business Goals

One of the reasons I chose the company that I am now a distributor for is the charitable efforts of the founder as well as many of the top distributors. Mr. Oshiro believes that there are three health's, the health of the body, The health of wealth, and the health in relationships.

 This means that first we work to bring our bodies into balance and health. Then we work to bring our financial status into Health and balance. And finally while doing both of those we work to build relationships with our friends and family and to bring those into balance also. And part of that is giving back to the community. 

Building relationships and trust and a good standing in the community helps to relieve stress not only on ourselves but those around us. I especially like the idea of giving back by building churches or schools where they are needed or helping to bring clean water to areas that have none. 

And I recently found something that I think is going to be my goal to bring to areas that are in drought or need of fresh food and that is called farm in a box. It's an incredible concept where are you they take a 40 foot shipping containerand turn it into a self-sustaining farming system. It has the irrigation the the capability of storage and water solar panels for power and even Wi-Fi for running it all. 

You can view this concept on this YouTube video: https://youtu.be/tm8GqVxS2qA

So as my business builds and grows my future goal is to be able to buy and donate these farms in a box to places like Haiti, where they need fresh food and fresh water. Or countries like Ethiopia where they have none. 

Healthy Living Now!

Me, Nov 26, 2014

It's funny, I always thought I did pretty good at eating healthy. With all my food allergies I was so careful. I ate lots of veggies and if I had to eat out, I chose salads, grilled chicken and such. But I never fully thought about what I drank. I usually had water with Lemon. I thought that was healthy. And while it is tasty, turns out it wasn't all that great for me.

Now that I have been drinking truly healthy water, no lemon needed. I have lost weight for the first time in my life without trying. I haven't had an asthma attack in 4 months now. And I have been free of migraines for that long also. For me that is nothing short of a miracle. I have had migraines since my 20's and asthma since birth.

Add to that a really fabulous proprietary supplement of Turmeric that is made by the same company as the water device and you have a super One Two punch that is really giving me a new lease on life.

My friends know my background. They know the downs that I have gone through in life! Now I am celebrating being healthier and happier than I have been in years. I have a new family of friends thanks to this company. The support is fantastic and the people are so wonderful.

Next month I will go to one of their training seminars in North Carolina. It teaches how to build relationships before business. Learn what personality type each person is, how to identify that personality and how to best work with them. If you haven't ever thought about it, you should. It makes a huge difference in how people connect or disconnect with each other. To build relationships as well as business, you want to connect. Otherwise you lose out and end up with a disconnection that is hard to repair.

I have also learned the power of the word "Next". It's amazing how freeing it is to know you have done what you can to share with someone, but if they are not ready, don't push, say next to yourself and move on. You can return to them later, or better yet, frequently they will come back to you. But by freeing yourself with that one little word, you can move forward and build the next relationship, and the next, and the next!

I love where life is going. Am I out of the woods and perfect? No, but I don't think we ever truly are. We are just moving forward, learning, growing and striving to be better than the person we were. We are reaching for the person we want to celebrate. Ourselves!

So go out and strive, reach, do and celebrate! Say next when you have to. And always move towards your brighter tomorrow.

If you want to know more about what I am doing, I welcome sharing with you one on one! Just message me to find out more!

Humorous Lesson in Bubbles!

This picture was taken from Bing Images, it was part of a promo for Cove Haven Resorts in the Poconos!

 

Years ago, (1985) I went to a little motel that had heart shaped jacuzzi tubs in the rooms. Yeah, cheesy, but back then, romantic. I was in my 20's and my husband and I were going for the romance. Well, I have always been a bubble bath kind of gal, and did not think about jacuzzi jets and bubble bath becoming a bubble monster.

You got it. I was filling the tub, turned on the jets and added a small amount of something to make bubbles (I think it was calgon bubble bath.) Next thing I knew I was shutting off those jets, and draining the tub. Oh yeah, we had bubbles everywhere. Lesson learned!

Sometimes we just have to live and learn! Today, I know that not only do I not need those bubbles, but we need healthier water.

Do you know what is in your water?

How do you think it affects your health?

Change your water, change your life!
