Partnering with Stacey

If we want to be at our best, for ourselves and others we care about- then we need to take care of ourselves! This includes mind, body and spirit. When you are good to your body, your mind and spirit also benefit, and that is why I believe physical wellness is important.

I see the foundations of physical wellness as four categories: nutrition, sleep, exercise and stress management. There is so much out there that is confusing! (If you’ve found something you love, please share it with me too!) 

There are so many options, but just to start with one that has proven to be a simple start and sustainable is IDLife’s DNA Test + Online Health Assessment. I used that to guide my exercise, diet and supplement routine.

That program makes the complex simple. You start by taking a free online health assessment that asks questions about your individual needs, lifestyle, family history, health history, (and even adds genetics if you purchase the optional DNA test) and provides a health score with suggestions to improve it. It then gives you the option to fill in your nutritional gaps with personalized supplements (easy, and more convenient to carry 1 little strip pack than a ton of bottles!) 

I highly recommend investing in the HIPAA-privacy protected DNA assessment, which provides a customized, 46 page report with specific guidance on do’s and don’ts of exercise, diet, vitamins, etc., specific to your genetic makeup. (ie: I have a high sensitivity to fats, so the Keto diet would not be a good choice for me. Also, I carry the MTHFR gene, so artificial dyes, ingredients and sugars do not do well in my body and affect my energy, digestion, metabolism and more. And I have found all of this to be true when I put it in practice!)

The benefit of this is it is information that you carry with you for life and allows you to stop guessing and wasting time and money on fads, diets, workouts, etc., that are not sustainable. When you supplement your body with what it needs, it is more likely to work how it should! For me that meant immediately improved sleep, energy, metabolism and more! Because my foundational health is sound, I have the wellness, energy, and capacity to be a better me for myself and all those around me; and that is why I consider wellness the core foundation to any path to consistent personal or professional success.
