Ever wonder why somedays you feel very stiff and achy yet can’t recall having done anything physically to cause it? Then experience those days that all seems to feel pretty good. You may have more control over managing this than you think.

Let’s talk about inflammation.

When something enters the body, and it is not recognized as something it needs like an essential nutrient- your immune system kicks in and attacks. Your body will work to protect itself from foreign matter and will push it out or encompass, destroy and or try to eliminate. For example; when you get a sliver in your finger your body will respond and create inflammation (redness and swelling) around the spot. Inflammation is a healthy immune response, however when repeated over and over it becomes Chronic Inflammation... which then is no longer a healthy response but a full attack on one's body.

An unfortunate common systemic form of inflammation can arise from what you eat and drink. Today many items we consume are loaded with ingredients (additives and preservatives) that are not recognized by the body as a nutrient. Chances are if you look at a label and can’t pronounce or recognize an ingredient – your body won’t either! As a result, the body will attack it as foreign matter. This may causes a systemic (full body) inflammatory response which can be experienced through stiff achy joints and overall swelling and bloat.

Each of our bodies are like chemistry beakers. Everything we consume has an impact on our unique chemistry balance. The effect of what we consume can be positive or negative. When negative, your body is smarter than you and will attack the unrecognized matter (like a silver in your finger), causing an inflammatory response. Everyone’s body is unique in how this takes place. Most common areas it can be observed in rashes and irritations on skin, bloating and digestion discomfort, acid reflux, stiff achy joints, and respiratory/sinus issues like runny nose and congestion.

Working with Rebecca you’ll discuss your current pain; together you can determine how to approach managing a portion of that through your lifestyle choices. Rebecca is here to create a supportive environment while together you explore what really works for you.

As a Health Coach, Mindfulness Yoga Teacher and Massage Therapist; I coach my clients to be aware and “Tune In” as our bodies “Talk’ to us our entire lives… through pain, stomach discomfort/digestive issues, skin irritations/rashes, muscle restriction, joint stiffness, chronic sinus issues, sleeplessness etc.

>This may require small or large changes in how you care for your personal health and wellness.

The body is designed through functional movement and chemistry to work synergistically. When there is an imbalance -anywhere is the system… your body will let you know. Sometimes its necessary to take a Pause … Tune in… Listen… Adjust.

Looking for something to believe in...?

Our greatest display of strength and character in life comes at the time you are able to help someone else as you weather your own storm. These simple acts will put your own storm in perspective.

There is always someone in need of :

Interested in retaining/regaining movement function typically lost through aging or chronic pain?

As a licensed massage therapist specializing in chronic pain for almost 20 years I felt there was a need to bring a form of yoga to many of my clients. Massage therapy is beneficial for many, especially those dealing with chronic pain. However, what I’m able to offer as a massage therapist in a session, is short term.

I’ve been suggesting yoga to my clients who are typically between the ages of 40 and 75, equally male and female. Most of them are dealing with some form of chronic pain including disc herniations, migraines and joint replacements to name a few.

The response from my clients when I’ve suggested trying yoga has been… “there’s no way I can do yoga, I’m not flexible, my body doesn’t move like that”.

Mindful Movement is a program that was inspired by some basic yoga poses. The intent is to assist my clients on improving the quality of their lives by sharing ways to move daily to manage some of their chronic pain when they’re not in a massage session with me.

Did you miss a step? If we move too quickly...

A series of small steps will take you where you want to go; each of them provide the balance and support to take the next step.

When we move too quickly or jump from one step to the next, we risk stumbling, falling and becoming stuck. We then have the natural tendency to become frustrated, overwhelmed and may stop moving forward all together.

In the same manner if we move too quickly through making healthy choices, there is little opportunity for those choices to become healthy habits.

Questions? http://www.bodybewellsolutions.com/questions

As you age - what will be most important to you physically? Moving around, free of chronic pain and movement restrictions?

Moving and gently stretching our joints with intention is something we all need… Although it’s so difficult to take the time and have the discipline to do it on our own.

Body Be Well Solutions focuses on supporting our clients to move mindfully and create mobility where stiff achiness generally resides. This can be addressed through any or all of these -Mindful Movement sessions, Massage Therapy and Health Coaching or Wellness Classes.

Let us help you bring some healthy mobility back into your life!

Mindful Movement is available in person or remotely 4 times a week -offering you an opportunity to be guided through a serious of movements which will enhance your mobility and minimized the impact of most arthritis associated with aging.

Massage Therapy is available by appointment.

Tailored to You personal Health Coaching is by appointment; schedule your introductory 20 Minute session today.

Consider why you stopped... Being healthy is about having a kind, supportive, caring and nurturing relationship with yourself.

You’ve had success in the past. Things were going well. You were feeling good had more energy and less brain fog. You were sleeping through the night and waking ready for the day. You lost a few inches and pounds. You were more active and simply healthier than today.

What happened? What healthy choices did you stop making?

*Did you start saying YES to everyone and everything - and NO to yourself?
*Did you stop planning your meals before going for groceries?
*Did you start skipping meals?
*Did you start snacking more on convenience foods?
*Did you change the amount of water you were drinking?
*Did you stop taking supplements that were filling the gaps in your nutrition?
*Did you get caught up in social media and begin spending less time moving?
*Did you let your self-care routine slip away?

You made your relationship with yourself a priority in the past. You can do it again. You may not need to be searching for something new… return to the routine and choices that worked before. http://www.bodybewellsolutions.com/tailored-to-you

Changing eating habits is hard enough -Don’t set yourself up for self sabotage and failure ...

Mediterranean? Keto? Vegan? Vegetarian? Intermittent Fasting? Low-Glycemic?

These are just a few and there are so many more “diet approaches” to choose from! How do you know which to try or is right for you? Before going down one path or another; consider these questions honestly. Changing eating habits is hard enough -Don’t set yourself up for self sabotage and failure by not planning and making a solid decision on which path to take.

>What is you goal or objective? Losing weight? Getting healthy?
>Does it fit into your current lifestyle? Meals made at home? Food ordered in? Dinning out?
>Is it flexible? Or is it ridged and based on extreme restrictions?
>Is it sustainable? Is it for a lifetime of habits? Or a quick fix?
>What is the financial cost involved? Is that sustainable?
>Do you have regular access to the food?
>How much time is necessary for preparation? Are there time saving options?
>What is your motivation for choosing one over another?
>Is it based on counting, measuring or recording consumption?

Your success will be based on the results of an honest assessment of these questions. No matter which approach you decided these items should definitely be part of your path:
>Sustainable
>Balanced food groups
>Flexible - because life happens!
>Based on non-processed food choices
>Mostly real food choices -not made in a Factory
>Proper hydration
>Cost Effective
>Well supplemented to cover the gaps in nutrients
>An approach that is coupled with physical activity and restorative sleep.

As the new year begins and many look to make changes...

Habits make up a portion of our day, while we are running on auto-pilot. Many many habits are healthy and normal. Some habits simply are not and cause more harm in the long term.

In reality, one does not quit a habit, without replacing it with another.

The challenge is to identify the triggers for the unhealthy habit and incorporate new ones with healthier choices.

Trying to quit smoking? Trying to cut back on or quit sugar? Trying to drink more water? Trying to exercise more?

For many it is a physical addiction to the unhealthy substance or its impact. For many it is a stress relieving or social habit. For many unfortunately it maybe both.

Imbalance is as important as Balance.

When you fall, fail or lose balance -Be curious, look for and see areas in need of adjusting. Take the opportunity to make new connections to yourself, those around you, to your environment and your daily routines.

Balance is only possible -after Imbalance.
