Fall health and diffuser blends

Fall health and diffuser blends
Happy Fall!
     It is officially fall now! Those of us in South Florida know this as the temperature is only 85 degrees instead of 90!
There is a definite difference however!!
     Now that it isn't so hot, lets get outside more and if you haven't started walking yet, now is the time!
As a physical therapist I counsel many people on how to start getting in better shape. There are many ways, but the easiest is to start walking. My sweet Great Dane, Misha, is a great walking partner! This picture shows her standing at the door hoping I will open it and we'll go out for a walk! You can time yourself and progress your walking each day by adding minutes or measure by distance and add a block every few days. The key, as with anything, is to be consistent! Just start with 20 minutes and work your way up from there. 
     And when you get home put on that diffuser! Burning a candle is equivalent to smoking for one hour! Use Young Living's special diffuser with our pure essential oils that support all aspects of your health. My favorite fall diffuser blends are :
                                                                       5 drops Thieves                                      4 drops Christmas Spirit
                                                                       3 drops Orange                                       2 drops cinnamon bark
                                                                       2 drops nutmeg                                       2 drops orange
                                                                                                                                       1 drop nutmeg
These recipes are found in the booklet: "Just Diffuse It!"  You can order this from Growing Healthy Homes.
I wish you the best as you support your health with consistent exercise and lovely diffuser blends this season!
                                                                             


Time for your health

Time for your health
Hey there!
Anyone else feeling like time is not only flying by but we don't have enough??
Maybe this is a general human struggle... or is it just me?
But there is one thing that needs to be a priority, after time with Jesus. 

And that one thing is our health.

After all, how much can we get done if we are too exhausted? or too stressed? or sick in bed? or at the doctor?

I don't think taking care of ourselves should take too long. We all know we need some kind of exercise daily. I suggest that this is done first thing in the morning! A walk outside refreshes the soul. I have found Christian yoga online (during Covid) and I combine my devotions with my exercise! (Caroline Williams is wonderful!)
Eating right starts with the right mindset and what you put in your grocery cart! It's really hard to pig out on cookies if you didn't buy them in the first place, right?!
Avoiding toxins helps support our health and immune system as well. I have found one company I trust, Young Living, that has everything from make up to whole food supplements that help me be toxin free and healthier. Its super easy to order and I get back 25% in reward points every month too. Sweet...

Make the time to take care of you and your family. I promise you won't regret that time well spent!

Welcome to my new website!

Welcome to my new website!
Welcome to my new website!
     I am passionate about good health and wellness, and I have been for over 30 years!
As a physical therapist I am constantly encouraging those on my path to move, stay active and eat the food "that God made!"
Well, if you have known me for very long you know I am also passionate about Young Living and their essential oils and products. Frankly, they have changed my life!
     Next Saturday I will be hosting a class on Essential Oils and Hormones. Progessence Plus is one of Young Living's products that changed my life (along with Ningxia Red!). I call it my happy oil! A few years ago I began using this luxurious serum to give me support through perimenopause and now in menopause! No hot flashes or fatigue for me!
Ya'll, these oils are the real deal and they work to support a healthy lifestyle!
I'd love to have you join me for the Hormone class this Saturday Aug. 21, 21 at 11:00am.

Meet Carol Bercaw

 
     Hi! My name is Carol and I’m a married mom to three, now grown kids! I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart Jeff for 38 years and now I’m a new Nana! I’ve been a Physical Therapist for over 30 years and a Certified Health Coach. I have been in your shoes with neck and back pain myself and have overcome it! This makes me uniquely qualified to help you! My passion is to help working moms  naturally  feel their best, live pain free and find vibrant health so they can carry out their dreams!
     Life was going at top speed as I tried to do it all and do it well! I was homeschooling 3 children, doing all household chores, cooking healthy from scratch and working part time! I had “plates spinning” all over the place. But I was stressed and exhausted, living on caffeine and sugary Star Bucks lattes just to get through the day. I was even yawning in my patients faces in the afternoon!
     Then things went from bad to worse. Out of the blue I had neck and jaw pain (TMJ) that rocked my world. I really began to struggle.Have you every felt that way?  I felt like I was letting my family down. I felt as if I wasn’t being a good enough mother and wife or a good enough PT at work! I was already spread thin and now with pain I literally couldn’t exercise or sleep and I honestly felt awful!
     Then two important things happened.
 I got some additional help with my neck and jaw pain and it finally went away. (You know even physical therapists need therapists!) Next, my good friend Cathy told me about a natural source of energy and I was able to ditch the coffee and caffeine! I started sleeping better and, oh boy, I had more energy to do my work, as well as be with my kids and not be a grump every day!
     Today I am still just as busy working and being a fun-loving Nana to little Olivia, although I still have trials I face! I have found natural ways to bring down my stress and fatigue and I can live the life I feel called to live, serving you, as a Certified National Health Coach and Physical Therapist (in the state of Florida). There are many experts in this field, however, they typically do not have the personal experience I can bring to the table, both as a therapist, health coach and mom. I am here for you! If you are ready to be free of the pain, fatigue and stress, I look forward to helping you live the life you want so you can thrive!
