Sugar the Silent Killer
It’s all fun and games until you get sick, I know all too well how easy it is to get carried away when enjoy the sweet stuff. No, it’s not everyone’s weakness but it is a major problem in our diets these days, the worst part is many people have no idea that it’s the sugar in their diet that’s making them feel low, gain weight, have brain fog and be moody. Instead, people think it’s a variety of other things, run to the doctor only to get pills that don’t solve the simple issue; Simple sugars that are hiding in your diet may very well be a bigger problem than you may think.
I recently posted a live video on Instagram about finding a tumour in my bladder. If you are just falling upon this blog post during a search, I hope that I may be able to help you in some way as I learn and try things out. I want to first say that although I’m not 100 percent health wise, I’m feeling great for the most part and my joy is full, other then the regular life stuff, being human is tough. There really isn’t a major sign of illness and I am expecting to be free from anything that may arise soon ,with the focus on health and wellness and some research, I believe a full recovery is to be expected.
It was a perfect weekend to getaway and RESET. We are the RESET RETREAT team. With everything going on in the world today, aligning yourself with likeminded faith filled people is so important. We came together to refresh, to relax and to press into our faith with prayer for each other and our nations. After two years of the isolating rules and restrictions we are done and ready to bring people together again.
We are headed out for the first RESET Retreat of 2022 this weekend.
The next Mountain Health and Wellness Retreat is set for March so if you are interested or just want to know more about the theme or activities, feel free to join my newsletter or contact me directly and I’ll send you some details.
I started these retreats for an alternative to yoga retreats for Christian women. We will be doing our stretches and morning prayers and meditations with our Bibles and Jesus. We will be enjoying connection with each other over healthy meals and some fun outdoor activities. There will be time for some photos, and just rest and journalling time. My hope is to send everyone home feeling renewed and refreshed.
The ladies and I will be joining hands to pray for our country and the liberation of the people. I am beyond excited to share some of the beauty of the mountains and some pictures with you after the weekend.
Subscribe to my newsletter for more details on our next retreat.

Eat smart and highly nutritious food. The ideas in this article are here to give ideas to eat healthy and to what to have in your food storage for the just in case or long term storing.
Natural Detoxing
What’s the best way to detox, reduce bloating and get regular?
I get asked all the time, what’s the best way to detox after the holidays? Depending on how long you’ve been in holiday mode will determine how easy it is to detox. Some people live a lifestyle of holiday mode, for those folks, it’s going to take a little more of a lifestyle change to see real results but for those of you that just need to kickstart your fitness routine after the holidays you will find some great recipes and some of my favourite detox ingredients that I keep around to make tasty water and detox drinks.
It’s that time of year again where work at getting back on track after the holidays, set our intentions and make that resolve to evolve. It doesn’t matter if you are brand new to the fitness journey or you are a veteran, we all need these fundamentals implemented in our lives. Healthy living is a mind, body and spirit trinity. All three need to be in sync to have health and wellness.
