A note from Sandra
So much has happened since I last wrote a newsletter for you, including a fabulous vacation in Bonaire, a Dutch Antilles island just island just north of Venezuela. More fabulous even than the vacation (two weeks of snorkeling!) was my newfound recipe for tranquility after I got back home.
As you might know, in addition to being a diet and wellness coach I am also a life coach. What is a life coach? One who guides other to live the life of their dreams; to have balance while determining and achieving their life goals.
As I departed for vacation I was clearly seeing that my own life was out of balance. I was stressed. Yes, I was making progress toward my goals, but at what cost? I was even thinking about giving up coaching. I was at a crossroads. I didn’t want to be coaching and just talking the talk, but not walking the walk.
Well, I have not given up coaching… instead, I’ve rediscovered a way to be worry free WHILE living a busy life.
I’ve written about it at my blog. You can read about it here.
AND, if you are ready to get support and help losing weight, I hope you’ll take advantage of the Reasonable Diet Jump Start Program that begins Sept. 1.
Warmest regards,

Use a video service to get a great workout.
Of Videos and Netflix and Trampolines
If you work out (or stretch, do yoga) to the television, old videos or DVDs, you might be interested in using a Netflix account to try out new material without having to buy it. Netflix is a company that sends you videos in the mail. You keep them as long as you like and when you send them back you can get more. The $16.99 monthly cost of a Netflix 3-at-at-time plan is comparable to the cost of purchasing one new fitness DVD.
My friend, client and blog contributor, Lori, has good advice on the subject. Follow this link.
Now is the time.
You can lose 20 pounds before Xmas!
You can lose weight with peace of mind. I can help.
Are you interested in having peace of mind with regard to your diet, while you are losing weight? Are you interested in experiencing the wonderful feeling of integrity with regard to your diet?
Then take advantage of these four week Jump Start Groups now. (They start Sept. 1, 2009)
Lily on “worry”
The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, nor to worry about the future, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly. ~~ Buddha
Worry never robs tomorrow of its sorrow, it only saps today of its joy. ~~ Leo Buscaglia
If you look into your own heart, and you find nothing wrong there, what is there to worry about? What is there to fear? ~~ Confucius
I worry that the person who thought up Muzak may be thinking up something else.” ~~ Lily Tomlin

Getting Things Done (in my office)
Can you imagine working in an office that looks like this?! Neither could I …. and yet I was trying to do just that. Jeeze, no wonder I wanted to “quit my job”! Read about my office makeover and see the before and after pictures here.
