aspartame---Avoid It!!!

one thing that we need to make sure we cut out of our diets altogether is ASPARTAME!!! aspartame is an artificial sweetener approved by the fda, that never should have been. it is known and proven to cause neurological disorders among other things. here are a few videos with a little more information on it

fitting in

have you ever visited a place that you just feel fits you so perfectly?? that the thought of leaving this place makes you depressed?? i have felt this exact way about california--specifically LA. 4 years ago was my first time there and ever since I feel like i just need to be there. my soul hurts not being there

photo magazine dreams

a few weeks back i decided to enter this photo contest with tag magazine, try and see if i could get enough votes to actually win and be put in their magazine. there's no money involved, just exposure and being able to see my photo printed in a photography magazine. to me that's worth more than money
anyway, if you like what you see, then check out tag's website and put a vote in for a friend :)

do yourself a favor

sometimes i think people forget how important massage therapy really is to both our physical body and our mental state alike. please do yourself a favor and go get one sometime soon. you just might remember how great they are and how much you really needed one. like i always say to my clients, " if you don't do it for yourself, most likely nobody else will." it's our body and we deserve to be free of pain :)

Some Benefits of Massage Therapy:

* Increases Flexibility
* Increases Circulation
* Increases Seratonin
* Reduces Depression
* Relaxes the muscles
* Tones weak muscles
* Promotes lymph circulation
* Stimulates digestion
* Increases dopamine levels

awaking life

Yeah, time has definitely not been on my side with this blog. I have been away and much has changed. The summer has come--the summer has gone, along with my former life. No longer am I a native of my home state of Illinois, but yet again, a resident of the sunshine state. Good ole' Florida. The husband and I felt like chasing the long forgotten "american dream" down to a place where the rent is cheap, you get much much more for your money, and where you can see the sun a lot more often.
Like most people these days, we wanna go into business for ourselves and lucky for us we have the trades to back it up. I've had a few minor setbacks with getting my license from the state, but once it gets here, i'm gonna be up and running for business. I've already got the blueprint drawn out, and am just waiting for that slip of paper which says I can legally work.
Life always feels so exciting when you go someplace new. It's like you can completely reinvent yourself if you want to and nobody would even know it. All the things that you have ever wanted to be, you can be in this new world you are creating for yourself.
Needless to say, so far in this new place, things are going pretty alright. I'm trying to relish the moments that are left of me not working. Taking advantage of the seconds that are still my own.
