Greetings!

Have you ever felt angry or discouraged looking at your vision board? I definitely have. I appreciate bestselling authors, Mel Robbins (The 5 Second Rule) and James Clear (Atomic Habits) addressing this. I have made many vision boards and sometimes they have felt motivating, while other times the same picture of an athlete with 6-pack abs reminds me of how far I am from that. Research shows there's a better way to create what you want!

"Manifesting is mind, body , and spirit. You need to get your nervous system involved. You need to THINK about and FEEL the entire process, not just the end goal."
Mel Robbins

Ask yourself, "Who do I want to become?" What would that person do?". For example, is your health important to you? If yes, ask, "What would a healthy person do? What would they do daily? ".

Instead of saying, I am quitting smoking, say I AM a non-smoker. Step into the identity of the person doing the things you want to do.

“Habits are the compound interest of self -improvement. So, the same way that compound interest accrues through finance, the effects of your habits multiply over time.”
James Clear

Nobody's perfect so compare yourself only to yesterday's YOU. What will 'tomorrow Chantelle' be super happy that 'today Chantelle' did? Emptied the dishwasher, made lunch, went to bed at 10 p.m.? What will 'tomorrow YOU' be grateful that YOU did today?

Acupuncture supports all your other good habits. So you can make your acupuncture appointments for the next 2 months, for example. You know I will cheer you on and support you in all your healthy habits!

So from my experience, these areas make the biggest difference in your health and your life:

  • SLEEP
  • MEAL PREP
  • MASTERING YOUR MORNING ROUTINE
  • EXERCISE, AT LEAST 5 MINS, ESPECIALLY STRENGTHENING
  • MEDITATION OR DEEP BREATHING
  • PLANNING YOUR SCHEDULE AHEAD TO AVOID STRESSFUL SITUATIONS

What are your favorite tools to help you?

Remember, progress not perfection!

We're here to help you have an amazing year so book your acupuncture appointment today! We'll help you take the next easy step in creating the health you want.

The Proven Way to Achieve Your Dreams
Ginger Lemon Honey shots
Ginger and lemon are amazing for the immune system. Make them spicy by adding a pinch of cayenne pepper or sweeter by using manuka honey or coconut water. You can add hot water to make it into a tea or down it in a shot. I made it super simple and did 1 cup fresh lemon juice with 1 TB squeeze ginger with 2 tsp manuka honey. 30 seconds in my magic bullet and viola! Great way to protect yourself this winter from colds and flus.
