Arbonne Essentials Nutrition Bar, Infra Red Body Wrap & a swim

Day 4 of my 21 day challenge and feeling all revved up. With a nutrition bar by Arbonne that has just been handed to me after my body wrap I am feeling ready to take on my day. Do recommend these body wraps by Trim N Tone - Balwyn....I have a pep in my step all day long...the bar is so tasty and I only started it because of the natural ingredients...Wow I know that I am on a good thing today. I am having the best time since I made some New Year's Resolutions at the start of the year. It is always good to remember that when you make a choice to become healthier or when you set new approaches to your health regime make it fun, tell your friends to join you as you challenge yourself to the best you can be- after all it is the experience that lingers on and gives you the energy to focus on respecting yourself. I always love visiting places where staff are trying out my Fresh Start pack and hearing their experiences...so many of us want to drop a few kilos and a pharmacist informed me yesterday that she had dropped 2 kilos while on the duo formulas I have combined in the Fresh Start Slim & Cleanse pack. Here I am on day 4 of my challenge having finished a very delicious bar, herbal tea and off to meet and be inspired the whole day through. The sun is shining and I feel so comfortable in my mind and body today and want to tell the whole world. Lisa you are a gem and hope to see you next Thursday for my next session...must get a few laps in today to ensure that I keep my challenge up to be the best I can be in January.... Keep smiling today and remember it's the only Thursday 10th of January you will experience in 2013....LIVE WHAT YOU LOVE

Chanel No 5, Protein Shake & Meditation

Good Morning, day 3 of my challenge to a healthier me in 21 days. If you haven't been following my last 2 blogs...Day 1 - Take hold of habits that no longer serve you and replace them with healthier habits for 21 days...Day 2 - Choice - how we treat ourself is a choice...choose respect...Day 3...started in an interesting way for me...as I knew I had to speed through my morning as my weekly mindfulness meditation was scheduled for 8.15 in Port Melb. It seemed like any other morning but I made a decision - today was going to be special and my affirmation for the day ....I will dance through my day in joy, harmony and laughter. As I said this out aloud I looked over and there in the corner of my bathroom a lovely gift I received from a dear friend...a large tub of Chanel No 5 body cream. Usually I dab on essential oils and because Chanel No 5 holds such memories for me and I have always loved the smell , I decided to start my day covering my body with this beautiful body cream. The smell took me back to when I was 28 and in the background I heard that it was the start of the Australian Tennis at Kooyong...there in the midst of my morning I was taken back to when I was 28, in love and watching the tennis at Kooyong in joy, harmony and making the most of the experience...feeling uplifted, affirmation repeating in my mind and the smell of Chanel No 5 following me wherever I went ...down the stairs and into the kitchen as I was determined to have my smoothie this morning...my almond milk, my vital protein sachet, flaxseed oil, berries, yoghurt and blender...yummy...ran out the door and in the car had Pink's latest CD playing and if you haven't heard her latest CD I highly recommend song 15, 16 & 17...in between the music I kept repeating my affirmation. The traffic was super and in I drove in time for my first morning meditation in 2013. We decided to complete the 30 minute Mindfulness meditation from an app I purchased a while ago and if you haven't got an app on your phone for meditation please add this to your phone and wherever you are, whatever time you have then this app will assist you to still the chatter in the mind that prevents us from focusing on all that is important in our day. So there I was, lost in my meditative state of stillness and calm, embracing every second knowing that the 30 minutes would soon come to an end. Awakening from my meditation I have entered my day so very calm and I have taken my Habit Relief drops and my Liver Elixir and away I go. I invite you to make time for meditation and experience a different way of being... Wishing you a day of dance, joy and laughter, Susan x

How you treat yourself is a CHOICE

I have known for a very long time that it really is up to me what I decide to do on a daily basis. My choices will affect everything about my day and will determine if my day runs smoothly or I am confronted with episodes that don't make my heart sing. I have a number of habits that enable me to take charge of my day and I call them my personal rhythm habits that have been with me for over 20 years. Every morning without fail I write 5 things I am grateful for, charge downstairs add lemon to my glass of warm water with a dash of honey and start thinking about my day. As I start dressing I chew on Tissue Salts, take my habit relief formula and then select an affirmation for my day. Today it was...I choose happiness.. As I got into my car...traffic was heavier than usual, my tummy reminded me that I didn't have time to have breakfast, my eyes felt sensitive because of the sun's rays penetrating through my sunglasses but I kept reminding myself....I choose happiness in all that I do today. I realize that if I want new experiences in 2013 I need to create new goals and new habits around my goals. I have known for a very long time that it is the choices we make that will shape the rest of our lives. Everything we do, say, eat, drink, think, feel is a habit that is taking places eventhough we are not always aware. Through a combination of awareness, self management and purposeful action I have learnt ways to motivate myself into becoming more able to participate in the life that makes my heart sing. I have always shared with women who have attended my seminars that it is all about taking charge and reclaiming all that we want to be part of our life jigsaw. Being a woman I find it is so important to develop my emotional intelligence and learn better ways to manage my emotions as my hormones speak very loudly to me if they aren't respected and given all they need. I have also embraced my changing hormones as my dear friends that have become my barometer reminding me what I need to say and do. In 2013 I invite every woman to start by creating a loving relationship with thy self and being kind to the goddess that lives within. I know if I want to lose a few kilos I need to create new habits around my day that will lead to this. I know that I cannot just want something without taking some action. If you have woken up today not loving the goddess within...sit quietly and find out why...it might even be as simple as picking up the phone and letting a friend know that you are tired of a few things and ready for change. Change can only happen when we are tired of a way of life that is no longer serving us... Always remember that it takes 21 dayys to change a habit. What good habits do you want to create for yourself in 2013...are you ready for the challenge...come on the journey with me and let's make today day 1 towards a happier and healthier self... TAKE CHARGE - YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE - YOU MAY FIND THE CHALLENGE ALLOWS A NEW WOMAN TO BE IGNITED...START FEEDING THE FLAME

It's all about HABITS....

Happy New Year and may 2013 be a great year filled with you achieving all your set health goals...I am sure many of you have already created a list called New Year's Resolutions for 2013...for a few days, weeks you will look at them and then your 2012 mind set creeps in and you say...maybe next month...I find that the more we say I need to take a bit more care in what I eat, I need to go to the gym, I need to start going for a walk each day, I need to go on a diet the more overwhelmed we become as our habits always interfere...it always amazes me that the same material is published in January each year...lose weight and feel great...7 top tips to feeling great in Summer...2 day Cleanse & Detox and lose a few kilos...all these are set up for failure unless we prepare the mind and body to be able to accept and move into change. The only way this can be done is by providing the mind and body with the nutrition it needs to not crave for the habits that have been part of your life for years..losing weight isn't simply about giving up foods you love but rather it is about creating an internal dance that supports your mind and body to become ready for the change you are believing will lead to better health. Over the years I have watched so many women try to lose weight, join a gym, give up smoking and every time there is this war that goes on...after a few days or weeks the women I meet say it just didn't work...I am lazy, I won't ever get this weight off even after they have spent hundreds and hundreds of dollars in the process. My belief is that we need to work in with our mind and body and create the internal cellular balance necessary for change to take place and select a health regime that is suitable for our body type and current lifestyle. Only when we change our habits around the foods we currently eat can we accept new foods in their place. What often happens when we choose very strick diets- initially seem right but we find ourselves cheating and not knowing why we are even heavier than when we started the diet. In all honesty how can someone who is dependant on alcohol and fatty food drop this over night without craving...are we crazy putting ourselves through this... let's make 2013 a year that we respect ourselves enough and realize that everything we do is a process and depends on a positive mind set that enjoys good sleep, balanced mood, calm thoughts and eating food that accelerates our internal health rather than further depleting us. Ask yourself these 3 questions... What do I want to do about my health in 2013? What is stopping me from achieving my goal weight? Do I need to stop or reduce my drinking and smoking? Answering these questions will motivate you to begin the 2013 change alot quicker than simply saying I must stop eating chocolate, bread...have you noticed that the more you say you won't do something the more you do it... Take a deep breath and begin to embrace change as a natural part of being you...only when we accept a change for 21 days does it become a habit...the aim is to create healthy habits and over time they will take over the unhealthy habits...one step at a time...

A pumpkin latte & wonderful memories

Today I decided it was time to experience a pumpkin latte. Staying in a beautiful hotel with a Starbucks as I walk past the main desk - I think maybe I will stick to my favorite - cinnamon latte but I decide no it's time to embrace the pumpkin latte - with thanksgiving in a few days and pumpkins everywhere I think it is a pumpkin latte for me. Delicious, warming, tasty and touches my soul as I recap all this trip has given me. I started with an idea of what might happen on my trip and never believed I would be sitting so close to snow covered mountain tops eating pasta in Courmayeur Italy to then landing in Canada seeing the products I have formulated in every health store I visit. I see the Schuessler Tissue Salts on top shelves smiling at me as they have found another home so far from Australia. I greet Canadian practitioners who eagerly want to learn more about Schuessler and the homeopathics I have formulated that they don't look up taking notes trying to capture all I am saying. I hear practitioners saying hw much they love the Kidz Mineral range I formulated many years ago and how much Healthy Appetite has helped little kids eat more of their food rather than being picky. I look at everyone and realize that I have never seen their faces but I feel I know them. I wonder around the room asking - did we meet last year? I wonder what it is that makes us feel we have met in the past - maybe we really are all energy connecting and feeling comfortable to inspire each other wherever we land. I started my journey on what would've been my grandmother's 100th birthday to das spent thanking the day my friend gave me Kali Phos over 20 years ago. I say thank you to my dear friend Dana for creating an amazing platform and allowing me to connect to people I would never have met before and a thank you to Martin & Pleasance for providing me with the opportunity to do all I dreamed of doing - sharing from my heart and creating medicines that would impact cells in the body and mind like no other. I also pay tribute to my clients I met 17 years ago who taught me that we all have habits and that freedom can only be ours when we give the cells the nutrition they need so we can break free in our own time. I am all that I am because of my experiences, friendships and platforms that have been provided for me along the way. My teaching degree has served me eventhough I left the classroom to study Homeopathy. What if everything we start has a way of weaving a web that supports us to land in a more comfortable place that we continue walking towards happiness... As I sip my pumpkin latte I wonder what my next adventure is ....I will make sure to rest before I take off again...here's to all the people who have made me fab hot lattes and to my new friendshipsx

My serene space

I have been part of a town called Burlington - Oakville and this is where I had my first Cinnamon latte, my first visit in the new Goodness Me training room and the first time I sat amongst some ducks who love Lake Ontario. I sat with them as they circled around me and I felt part of the ebb and flow of this peaceful space in Canada. Walked through Oakville yesterday after teaching my final seminar for 2012 in Toronto before flying out to Ottawa and was touched by the friendliness that surrounded me. I watched how everyone who came to my seminar gave me a hug and the welcome I received when I walked into stores - Canadians just love the Australian accent which surprises me. I think we need to lift our game and try to become a bit more welcoming and gentle as a nation like the Canadians I have met. I travel with an amazing woman called Dana who is so compassionate and caring that makes my stay here so comfortable. She books hotels that inspire my soul and seminars that allow people from all walks of life to meet me. I know without Dana my stay wouldn't be such a memorable one in Canada. It is the friends who touch our hearts that make a place special. A place no matter where in the world needs people who will take us by the hand showing us places that will become part of our life jigsaw that belong to us. Have you ever met someone and you know that you will have an amazing adventure with them eventhough you are from opposite parts of the world. My sincere gratitude goes to my friend Dana who has taken care of everything and still continues to surprise me with an infectios smile each day. I thanked the lake, the people I met and the ducks that allowed me to sit with them today. I am now ready to fly out to Ottawa to share all that lives in my heart on Schuessler and my experiences to date. Dancing, communicating and freedom are part of all I do in Canada

So far from home but home

I have been traveling for a few weeks but don't feel very far from home in Canada. As I sit watching the beautiful views Lake Ontario provides. Sun is shining and there is a peace that lives in every cell of my body. I have just finished my first cinnamon latte and have time to just be and be grateful for all that I experience in this beautiful space, city I find myself in for a few more days. I look around thinking I will see someone I know but I remind myself I am in Canada and not Australia. After years of creating a formula and many asking drop it to now be in Canada speaking to health professionals on my unique Habit Relief that was inspired from my years spent helping clients restore inner balance when their unhealthy habits took a hold of them. Without my clients and their response to Schuessler Tissue Salts I wouldn't have the confidence to take my formulas around the world as I do today. Years ago when I studied Homeopathy I never thought traveling and speaking on my experiences would have such an impact. I realize now that timing is everything and when we have a dream it is important to keep chipping away and only share with people who can support by listening and letting you find your way. It hasn't always been smooth sailing holding onto my dream and taking the turns necessary to keep my dream alive but I am so happy I stayed on my yacht when the seas became very choppy as I have landed in a space that I can share my unique formulations. It has made me think that we are so quick to give up on our dreams to please or even at times we believe others know best. We know what is best for us and only when we sit still and find a way to work from our heart can we make a difference. Passion cannot be bought but is rather an experience that touches us deep within our soul and we know we can only speak from this base. A woman at one of my seminars said - "Susan you speak from the inside out" - thinking about this I realize that only when we go within can we make a difference on the outerx Passion to me means Persistence Acceleration Support synchronicity Inspiration Openess Never Give Up ....what are you passionate about? Perhaps being at home really is about the mind & body balance that we carry around with us wherever we go. I am grateful for all who have touched my heart on my journeyx
