Make Your Blood Your Business.

My desire is to inspire women in business to aspire to be the best that they can, in all aspects of their lives. Itiel

What significant role does preventive healthcare play in running a business? A major one. As I stated before, there is no use in building a business to its fullest potential, if one allows their health to fall by the wayside.

I received my first ECG last month. The Nurse Practitioner (my new physician) said to me, "You have an outstanding resting heart rate!" During that visit, blood was drawn for testing. Note-I haven't had blood drawn since my last pregnancy (8 years)! In 7 days I went to go pick up my test results. "Your blood test results are amazing! But I think you already knew that." Yes. She proceeded to tell me that I should frame the results, and to tell me that whatever I am doing to stay healthy, continue. I will.

My physician advised me to take a multi-vitamin, due to the fact that women loose a lot of iron during their cycle. Going through my network directory, I thought of Marguerite Wright aka Mom's Herbs. This sister and I have connected on so many networks, and she is sincere about helping women to enjoy a healthy life. Marguerite offered to send me information on my blood type (King T received his also). I was blown away by the amount of information that she sent my way. According to your blood type, you will receive the strengths and weaknesses (health risk), type of exercise that your blood type thrives on, nutritional profile, diet red flags, and the breakdown of your personality. That is not all! A complete chart of foods (every food group) that are advantageous, neutral, or just plain bad for your blood. I must say the information was exact. As I told Marguerite, I have always been able to be in tune with my body. I know when something isn't right, instantly. So a lot of the foods that were advantageous for my blood, I knew when it was lacking and I craved it.

I encourage you to visit your physician to get a complete examination. I highly encourage you to get in touch with Mom's Herbs, by clicking on any of these highlighted links. Request your blood type information! When you visit her site, be sure to RSS Feed the newsletter! Being able to function at your best, physically, mentally, spiritually, and emotionally should be your top goal. Enjoy the life that has been given to you. Be a good steward of your health. A business woman should be able to function highly, and show excellence in all that she does.

To your health!

Scenting My Home

Mmmmm, right now I am scenting my home with Pine Royale. Now it does smell absolutely perfect for this season, I am just not saying that because I created it. As I sit here and typed this post, the warm aroma from downstairs is dancing across my nose. I can smell all the notes that I need to, which means the oil ratio is just right. I am proud of myself. ;)

I am so glad that I decided to make available a home combo for this limited edition fragrance.
