Health & Fitness is probably the biggest challenge for me at the moment. I’m trying to balance my life so I can incorporate rest & relaxation, because as a mother & wife it is challenging to be balanced!!
I feel though that it’s important to eat a healthy diet, and exercise regularly 🙂 I’m learning that there is a thing where you can be getting too much exercise, & we don’t want that!! For a couple years now I’ve been struggling with hormonal imbalances, It’s been something that has shown up as acne on my jawline & problems with Pelvic congestion syndrome! Unfortunately I’m gettting to the point where I will be heading into menopause which doesn’t help these imbalances!! However, Despite this I’m loving how I feel in my own clothes because of my diet and going for walks, hikes & now bicycling, i love how I have lost about 10 pounds!! Yay!!
Pelvic Congestion Syndrome & Acne
Some helpful tools on this journey have been a womens multivitamin, flaxseed oil & herbal supplements, they have been so helpful!! Saw Palmetto has been helpful with my Pelvic congestion syndrome but i am still struggling with acne, it’s not horrendous but manageable!! I also take just one fish oil supplement. Another tool that has been tremendously helpful is the NuDerma Portable Handheld High Frequency Skin Therapy Wand Machine w/Neon – Anti-Aging – Skin Tightening – Wrinkle Reducing – Dark Circles – Blemish Control – Hair & Scalp StimulatorPure NuDerma, Natural Dermal cell Energy Amplification system!!! If I could I would sell this! But you can purchase on Amazon here, NuDerma Portable Handheld High Frequency Skin Therapy Wand Machine w/Neon – Anti-Aging – Skin Tightening – Wrinkle Reducing – Dark Circles – Blemish Control – Hair & Scalp Stimulator. It is the preventative care for Acne.. it’s like zapping them before more damage is done! I love it, I makes me feel like I have some control over my Acne! Chamomile Tea, and Spearmint Tea have been extremely helpful too!! _______________.
Strength Training
Strength training is so important!! Have you noticed that you can walk, even run but if you have weakness on your legs you’re more apt to injure yourself?? Well I love walking, and I love the feel of running 🙂 however it’s absolutely important to have a strong body too!! So including weight training and exercise to strengthen core and other muscles to be important!! Even in nutrition, weight training is highlighted! ive been loving the Insanity workout, my daughter and i did this with an instructor at her school, he used the one specificallu with Sean T! It is very intense but my legs are so weak that it made a believer out of me when afer a month i could go skiing without a problem, be sure to wear shoes!! INSANITY Base Kit – DVD Workout
