Last summer, I visited Maui<\/strong><\/a> with Joyce Cherrier<\/strong><\/a>. What I learned by observing her eating and workout habits really impressed me the importance of consistency. \u00a0I tend to focus on staying positive by meditating and getting out with nature. \u00a0The missing piece for me was keeping a consistent exercise routine: \u00a0it has been hard to juggle due to my travel schedule.<\/p>\n

“The healthier we are, the more available we are to those around us in mind, body and spirit,\u201d Cherrier explained. \u201cWe have to take care of ourselves first and foremost spiritually, mentally and physically before we can function at our fullest.\u201d Her advice: do a little more each day than you think you can. \u00a0She applies this in her daily routines, nudging herself to advance a little further. \u00a0It doesn’t always have to be a big push: baby steps work best sometimes.<\/p>\n

“How you feel is a reflection of how you fuel.” Someone close to me had been effectively been gone from my life for the last 15 years. \u00a0She was here physically, but she was on auto pilot, and it showed in her actions and her appearance. You need to be healthy on the inside in order to shine on the outside. I\u2019m happy to say that she\u2019s fully present now, and flourishing.<\/p>\n

You know how much I love the spread positivity.\u00a0 I really enjoyed Joyce’s #healthydose tip from her #VZWBuzz<\/strong><\/a> chat, and wanted to share her holistic approach to staying healthy in mind, body and spirit.<\/p>\n
