We offer holistic health programs that will radically change your view on food, nutrition, and life. The programs are typically implemented across six months, because true change never happens quickly and involves a gradual transition from old habits to newer, healthier ways. Our programs will help balance all aspects of your life: career, relationships, physical activity, spirituality, and food. Come explore if an Inspired To Health program is right for you or someone in your life. The initial consultation will provide valuable information to help on your path to vibrant health and better eating. |

Greetings!
Happy New Year! I hope it is off to a great start! I realize in writing these newsletters that there are certain months and times of year in which we associate most with new beginnings and fresh starts. I think it is good for some people because it can push and motivate them. However, I believe the "time" is somewhat irrelevant and often an excuse to put things off rather than get started. My advice is no matter what the date or time of year, if you have things you want to accomplish that you are not - start now. Start where you are right now and do what you can now! If it's a slow go or you start procrastinating, do not get down on yourself, just keep starting again - wherever you are! Change will come and so will the habit of taking control of your life.
~ Wishing for you that this will be the best of years!
Carpe Diem, Lynn |

Goal Setting and Intentions
How many of you made a list of 2009 New Year's resolutions? How many of you do this every year? How many of you achieve your goals each year? If your answer is, I do - congratulations to you! Unfortunately, you are in a small minority. As we are all aware January is the typical month for resolutions and goal setting. Why is it so hard for many to follow through with the changes that we truly want to make in our lives? People who achieve their goals are typically ones that set extremely clear intentions. Not only are they clear but they visualize their goals, followed by taking small steps and action towards them. Some of the greatest factors in not achieving our goals are lack of follow through, feeling overwhelmed, and most importantly in my opinion a lack of true belief in your ability to succeed. Doubt and fear will sabotage most any good intention. It's easy to fall into the trap of doubt because our society is so full of judgement and fear. Mindset is everything and immensely powerful. Many goal oriented people focus on the big picture of what they want and go for it without getting hung up on the "whys" and "hows". They then start a step by step process. Adamant goal setters are typically very successful and gratified people. We all deserve this.
Here are my basic yet powerful tips for goal setting. You may have heard them all before but reinforcement is key. Goal setting is one of the most neglected and troubled areas for many, which in turn holds people back or keeps them stuck.
1) Get clear and specific about what you want.
2) Write down goals, read them and say them out loud regularly (daily, hourly..).
3) Start taking small achievable steps towards your goal. Do one thing towards your goal each day.
4) Visualize and focus on the end product and do not let your mind trick you that it's too hard or impossible.
5) Find support in a friend or someone who will help hold you accountable.
6) Believe in yourself completely no matter what anyone else says (especially your own voices of doubt), and do not compare yourself to others!
Do not make too many goals at one time or you cannot give them proper time and attention. Two or three at once is plenty.

Testimonials:
"I want to thank you Lynn for bringing your stress management training program to Miller Canfield Law Firm. We look for training programs that offer a double benefit: they must be helpful to the company's success and individually enjoyable and beneficial for the employees. It is rare for us to find programs that do both things well. Your combination of practical ideas and tools for personal insight is balanced and practical.
Attendees appreciate that the Firm offers training for them, personally- not just professional education. We were especially appreciative that you worked with us to design a presentation that addressed issues unique to our business culture. You have helped us send the message to our employees that we are serious about the importance of a balanced life."
Suzanne Schultz, General Manager - Miller, Canfield, Paddock and Stone LLC., Law Firm
"I recommend Lynn to all of my friends, collegues and others when health issues are discussed. She is an amazing listener and extremely insightful. Our counseling sessions and her recommendations have transformed my life. I was leery at first about having a health counselor since I have always thought I can do anything on my own. Afterwards, I couldn't be happier with the changes in my life due to Lynn."
Jack Clayton, CEO - Design Architecture Firm
"Lynn, at Inspired to Health, helped me to change my entire relationship with food and to take control of my life! I had been on every diet imaginable and my weight had yo-yoed my entire life. Lynn helped me learn to listen to my body and take small steps to change my dysfunctional habits. I lost weight without denying myself of many of the foods I love. Lynn helped educate me about how delicious food can be that is actually good for my body! My energy levels and whole life has changed for the better as has my respect for myself and my health. Lynn's approach and caring nature creates a safe space, motivation and inspiration for change and growth. Thank you! Thank you!"
