Words To Live By 

What a weekend!  The setting was Lincoln Center in New York City where I was lucky enough to be among 1500 other graduates of the Institute of Integrative Nutrition.  IIN hosts yearly conferences that helps inspire us in our goal to create a rippple effect to foster wellness and health for people all over the world.

  While I speak often about nourishment for your physical body, we also need nourishment for the soul. Emotions and stress play a huge part in our total well being. There is a reason why studies have shown people with cancer who have a more positive attitude and less stress respond much better to treatment than those who are unhappy, negative and stressed out.

Below I will share motivational quotes shared by the varous speakers at the IIN conference.  They apply to everyone and anything in life.  Whether you want to lose 10 pounds, advance your career, do better in school/career or just be a happier person, read these words every day.  I have already printed these myself and have posted them on my mirror to remind me every day...

"Focus on what you are giving, not what you are getting."

"A person is but the product of their thoughts, what they think they become."          Mahatma Gandhi

"Whether you think you can or think you can't, you're right."      Henry Ford

"Now that you know better, you can do better."

"When you're interested, you do what's convenient.

  When you're committed, you do whatever it takes."

"Courage is a love affair with the unknown.  Feel the fear and JUMP IN!"

"I am positively expecting great results, no matter what I see in front of me."

"Stop the stinking thinking and just do it."

"To teach is to learn."

conversely,...

"Just because something is taught doesn't mean something is learned."

"It always seems impossible...until it is done."     Nelson Mandela

After this poignant weekend, I am determined more than ever to educate others in what can help make them just feel good.  I invite you to join me in this effort.  If you enjoy my newsletters, forward them to your friends and family!  Invite them to opt-in for their own free subscription.  If you know anyone who is interested in a more customized approach, please contact me.

"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."     Nelson Mandela

Perhaps you, yourself or people you know share this passion.  I would also like to invite others you know to learn more about the Institute of Integrative Nutrition to help spread the message.  It is through my education and experience that it is more evident than ever that...

 "People are fed by a food industry which pays no attention to food and are treated by a health industry which pays no attention to health."

Wendell Berry
