Last week Carmela attended a Z-Health course in Phoenix called "Sustenance and Spirit" and when she came back, realized just how important communication is not only in our day-to-day lives and personal relationships, but also with how we talk to ourselves (i.e. the thoughts in our head, our self-confidence or lack thereof, and most importantly, how we use food to dictate how "good" or "healthy" we really feel. The latter will be explained in another newsletter).
This particular course was geared towards 4 days of motivational interviewing/coaching techniques that is especially helpful when working with family, friends and clients such as you! It was also nutrition based (hence the "Sustenance" in the title), but was surprisingly not as loaded with nutrition as most other courses are. The nutritional info she received will be coming to you all very soon, and we're excited to continue to help you all, ourselves included, in becoming our own "food scientists". Because every body is so completely unique, it makes it extremely hard for us to prescribe any sort of meal plan, nor the same meal plan for 2 different people. The techniques we will be showing you in the next few weeks will help you figure out which foods are actually good for you and which ones aren't giving you any sort of benefit.
The biggest and most profound piece of info Carmela received last week was about the "power of words" and how we can make someone's day better just by choosing the right words. This very short video below literally brought her and a few other people to tears after watching it. We'd love for you to check it out and let us know what you think:

The video states "Change your words, change your world", and we believe that 100%. Communication is a skill that is obviously important and we all do it but what is often overlooked is the fact that we can all make such a huge impact on someone's life just by choosing different words.
