~ HAPPY THANKSGIVING ~ THE POWER OF GRATITUDE “Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow.” ~Melody Beattie I cherish this time of year; Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. The warmth of the energy that fills the air of giving, gratitude and unselfishness is absolutely wonderful!   I relish time spent with my loving husband, children, extended family & friends, my heart overflows with love & gratitude ~ I am richly blessed beyond measure.

DON'T GIVE INTO THE DREADED HOLIDAY 10 LBS! ~ Carol Whitaker ~ EMBRACE YOUR FITNESS JOURNEY TO SUCCESS EVEN DURING THE HOLIDAYS I love the holidays, most e veryone is more giving, kind and forgiving as they focus on Christ, it's truly the most wonderful time of the year!  This holiday season rather than throwing in the eating clean and exercise towel, commit to staying on track with your workout and fitness game plan.  Try to exercise at least 5 times a week for at least 30 to 45 minutes.  You don't have to spend hours in a gym to achieve a hard body, just enough to work up a good sweat and fatigue your muscles.   Eating clean is 85% of the fitness recipe for success.  Embrace a fit lifestyle by prioritizing "you" first every day.  Plan your workouts and meals in advance and then follow through.  Think positive, loving thoughts about your amazing body throughout the day.  See and feel yourself thin as though you

SIX-PACK ABS ARE ATTAINABLE    Having a six pack is awesome!  There's nothing quite like it, it's highly empowering.  I'm often asked how I achieved my six pack. It may seem like a lofty goal but very achievable with hard work, endurance,  and determination in addition to eating a clean diet. You can have a tight, sexy midsection by following my Six-Pack AbS program. It's a lot of work and it definitely requires a lifestyle change, you can't workout like crazy, eat junk food and expect to see results.   Committing to living a fit lifestyle is a must, if you stay on track and truly stay focused on your goals you will have a killer washboard stomach within 90 days (if you don't have a lot of weights to lose and if you do it will just take you a bit longer). It's not easy, but it's well worth your time and energy to work towards such a lofty goal. You have to be patient, it takes time to burn all the fat that is

HOME GYM I attained my fitness goals & dreams by working out in my home gym using dumbbells, I haven't stepped foot in a gym since I got married 20 years ago. You don't need fancy equipment to transform your physique.  All you need are challenging  dumbbells, a mirror and an incline bench, a water bottle and an iPod to keep you pumped as your train.  H

"Love at first sight... this is a photo of Xander & I the fist day he arrived home.  It was divinely magical..." KEYS TO A HAPPY LIFE In today's world life is beyond busy, as a wife, mother & entrepreneur I know how crazy life can be.  It is truly a balancing act to care for my family, home, horses, work and me... If I'm not careful it's easy to fall into the feelings of being overwhelmed with all I have to do each day.  Woman come to me often asking for assistance, they tell me their struggles and issues, it always touches my heart to hear their heartfelt stories.  As I listen I take in every word and energy of emotion expressed and unexpressed.  When I ask them what they do for themselves each day, most of them say, "I dont' have time for me, I have too much to do..."   It's easy to put yourself aside and only care for your family, friends and loved ones but when you do that you're not honoring "yo
