101 days ago, I challenged myself to meditate and chant for 40 consecutive days.
Often times, we forget that what we need is already here and that the blue skies we are so desperately searching for, are here, too. They are simply just above the grey clouds we are focused on.
Today work day was thrown off a bit due to needing to rest through my first day of my Lady Time. I started to say screw it to the meditation, but as I sat for the 10 minutes, I found that my tension ease, my belly felt better and I became less focused on the grey of my day.
[ My thoughts about Headspace ]
Headspace is quite easy-to-use and interactive. The use of videos to present value alongside the meditations are great tools to help you understand the practice of meditation:
I love how I can track my progress and be a part of a larger community of simultaneous meditators. I also love that you can invite others to participate with you…
If you are reading this and want to join the challenge, add me to your Headspace App: “coachterag@gmail.com”.
[ The Takeaway ]
Every day will be different. Every challenge within the day will be different. But with meditation, I am able to recenter and get focused on what is, which allows me to release into the now. Just ten minutes a day can go a long way if we just give it a chance!
[ Question For You ]
Do you use meditation daily? If so, how has it helped you?

Music. Wellness. Inspiration.
By the way, this is one of my longest posts, but I wanted to make sure I covered as much as possible, though I only highlighted everything I experienced this weekend. 🙂
Ready? Let’s dive in…
[ The World’s Largest Nutrition School ]
International Participants join the stage at the November IIN Conference!
The Institute for Integrative Nutrition, or IIN, is celebrating it’s 20th year and is THE World’s Largest Nutrition School. At this weekend’s conference, there were students attending live and via online from places including: Moldova, London, Canada, Kuwait, Mexico, Poland, South and West Africa and Australia, in addition to the USA!
IIN is a GLOBAL community.
I am glad to be a part of the ripple as a current student. My graduation is February 2015, and in the time I have been a student, I have learned way more invaluable information and experienced transformation more priceless than my tuition can be “valued” at.
Part of the invaluable information and priceless transformation has happened “outside” of the classroom, via the LIVE Conferences.
[ The Conference Speakers ]
We had a lot of great Keynote speakers, as well as past and present graduates who shared their stories throughout the conference. Here were some of my favorite speakers of the weekend (Click on the images to see the comment threads on Facebook):
Daniel Vitalis inspired us to REWILD ourselves!
Catherine Collautt gently guided us to vibrate higher!
Manisha Thakor taught us the 7 Keys to Investing (made Simple!)
Jennifer Esposito share her compelling story of living with Celiac Disease
Venus Williams motivated us to listen to ourselves and dig deep to be our “11”!
I don’t know where to begin. But I will share with you 5 Highlights that I learned that you should know about to further your health, happiness and WHOLEness.
Remember: you can click the images to head to join/read the Facebook threads for the highlights!
You can invest in your future, right now. Here are the tools that Manisha Thakor Recommended (PS: Read more About Manisha to know whyyou may want to listen to what she says!)
Your blue screen is messing with your health and sleep! I’m all about raising my vibration and consciousness, and I’m also an Early Adaptor. If you are too, then this is for you!Daniel Vitalis introduced us to f.lux, which, “makes the color of your computer’s display adapt to the time of day, warm at night and like sunlight during the day.” Learn more and download it here: https://justgetflux.com/
Just Get F.lux!
Fermented vegetables can be easily homemade. Did you know all illness begins in the gut? Did you know that a good way to keep a healthy gut is through fermented vegetables (probiotics)?Well, whether or not you knew it, making fermented foods is really easy, and with the Perfect Pickler, it is made even easier (and cheaper)! There’s no more excuses for a healthy belly! http://www.perfectpickler.com
Health Coaches are a viable solution. “Bought” is a powerful film exploration into the big money field of Medicine. Watch this informative trailer here: http://youtu.be/ckOVDMDiZbk
Health Coaches are on the rise and making an IMPACT! There is now a newly formed community of global Health Coaches, called the International Association for Health Coaches, which was spearheaded by the Institute for Integrative Nutrition‘s Founder, Joshua Rosenthal.I am a PROUD member! 🙂

Oh, and here’s a link to learn more about who I work with. It also includes a replay of an audio class I held that covers the “Top 5 Reasons To Work With a Health Coach.”
[ Closing Remarks ]
So, the big question is “Are health coaches future of Health Care?”
Watch this short video and do let me know your thoughts:
Will Health Coaches be the future of healthcare? Doctors are trained to treat illnesses, but they do not help their patients change the behaviors that lead to them. Health Coach and IIN graduate Maria Marlowe explains why Health Coaches fill a unique role in the medical field that is becoming evermore crucial.

I was hesitant to click on this post when I saw it in my feed because sugar is just very much something to not be advocated for (inflammation, diabetes, etc). But, I’m glad I checked!
What I liked most was the use of sugar alternatives. Though, with all sugar, do your best to keep it to a minimum for optimum health. 🙂
Great presentation. Great post. Food as Art, once again!
Halloween is not widely celebrated in Australia but I really wish it was. I’m a sucker for a costume party and love the idea of transforming the house into a haunted mansion and baking the most creepy Halloween dishes I can find on Pinterest.
Today I wanted to share one of my favourite recipes, Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups.
Reese’s peanut butter cups are one of my all-time favourite treats. So when I came across Alicia’s Silverstone’s healthier, dairy-free version of the famous sweet I had to try it. After using this recipe countless times, I have to say they are one of the most delicious and easiest desserts to make and a hit at parties. You can easily substitute the ingredients to include dairy but I promise you won’t miss it.
All illnesses begin in the Gut and usually the first signs of a cold is in the sinuses… which then leads to sore throats, coughs and all around icky feelings!
Check out these two Wonder Foods. Better yet, plant the first so you have it all year round! 🙂

I didn’t until about a month ago.
I came down with a gnarly sore throat and got to flexing my fingers to search for foods to help with my ailment…
Up popped articles about Radishes. I thought, “Radishes? Really?”
And so began my road to a SUPER speedy recovery!
Your Body Is Trying To Tell You Something
I should mention that I had literally purchased some radishes a few days before I came down with my sore throat.
Two things to note:
I rarely get sick and I’d never bought radishes prior to this purchase.
Why am I saying this?
To remind you that your body is a SUPER computer, ready to heal itself when given half the chance. Your body is your best doctor, if you’ll just listen to what it is telling you.
What You Crave Is What You Need
We often hear the word “craving” and think BAD. But I’m here to tell you that cravings are not good, nor bad; they are merely signals to tell you that you are lacking something and your body needs it.
Example: You’ve just worked out. All of a sudden, you want chips. It’s not the chips (or potatoes, rather) that you crave… usually, it is the salt, because of the loss of salt through your sweat.
I am a highly intuitive Being and have learned to listen to my body with extreme clarity. My “random” craving to buy Radishes were merely a signal and preventative measure given to me by my body. I think to myself, if I’d not trusted myself, my sore throat would have taken me down far longer than just 24 hours.
Yup, only 24 hours, thanks to the 3 R’s: Radishes, Rest and Relaxation! 😉
How To Cure A Sore Throat
Now you know just one of the reasons to eat your Radishes. Sore Throats are handled with ease with Radishes (and they also help to clear out your sinuses).

OH, geez…
I went to my first Kundalini Yoga class a few days ago and let me tell you, I am STILL learning how to walk again. LOL
Have you ever experienced that type of exercise-induced soreness?
If you have, and want to learn how to treat it with fast, practical and simple suggestions, then by all means, check out this great article by Pain Management and Injury Relief Medical Center in California, USA.

Top 3 Crystals for Energy Healing, Stress Management
A natural, relatively inexpensive way to increase your energy and manage stress
Do you suffer from fatigue and lethargy? Are your stress and hormone levels out of wack?
I encourage you to tap into the healing power of crystals and minerals!
I work with these Helpers daily, recommend them to my clients in my Health Coaching practice, and the power of crystals is magnificent for Holistic Healing.
The Benefits of Crystals
Each crystal is different. Some crystals overlap in their benefits. Some crystals enhance the properties of others. Some are ancient (think 2 BILLION years old), some are still being discovered for the first time this very moment…
One crystal may be great for helping with digestive problems, another for depression, and yet another for confidence.
The through line? Crystals are beneficial, natural Goodness-inducers that you can own for as little as a dollar (or less, if you stumble upon one for free on a hike or camping trip.)
Create Your Collection of Helpers
Amethyst
I took my friend Crystal Shopping yesterday and she got her first Amethyst, and a lovely chain to go with it. I wear Amethyst almost every day, as it is awesome for helping to protect from absorbing unwanted energy, especially negative.
Top 3 Benefits: Helps Reduce Stress, Encourages Inner Strength, and is great for Travelers.
Black Tourmaline is another must-have in your Crystal starter kit. Just like Amethyst, it is a protection stone. However, what I love the most about this power gem is that it doesn’t just absorb negative energy, it transforms it into POSITIVE energy. Plus, if you’re like me, you spend a lot of time on the computer and you are surrounded by technology. Black Tourmaline can help you combat the effects of radiation and other harmful, technology-based life-suckers. 🙂
Top 3 Benefits: Turns Negative Energy to Positive, Helps relieve Stress/Anxiety, and Stimulates Grounding.
Remember how I said there are some crystals that will enhance those around it? Well, Seleniteis one of them.
I love Selenite because it is like taking a bath in the most purest water you can find… if you can find it! Selenite is so wonderful, you can literally place your other crystals upon it to help purify and cleanse them, which you should be sure to do often.
Crystals need cleansing and there are proper ways to care for your crystal. But if you’re just getting started, you can count on Selenite to help you with the care of your Crystals. Think of Selenite as your Crystal Collections’ best nanny/caregiver!
Top 3 Benefits: Used for Good Luck and Protection, Helps relieve Stress/Anxiety, and Removes Energy Blockages.
If you or someone you know suffers from PMT, Labradorite is a great crystal to look into! It’s not just great for PMT/PMS and balancing hormones, it is also lovely for stress management and relieving respiratory complaints. 🙂
The only way to unlock and unblock your potential is by trusting in the ancient wisdom of the Earth. I have presented 4 great crystals to help you on your journey. Remember what I said in the beginning of this post? Crystals are relatively inexpensive, so go out and explore and let me know how it goes!
Put it this way: Would you rather trust modern medicine, which has been around for less than 4000 years, or a gem thats been around for 2 BILLION years? 😉
