I have signed the following pledge, per my participation in The Daily Dietribe Gluten Free Health Challenge.
“I will challenge myself to love and respect myself and my body. I will challenge myself to treat myself as I would a dear friend, with kindness and support. I will challenge myself to eat healthy because I love myself and because I want to take care of myself.”
All of these words rang true to me over the past few years, as I have faced various health struggles, increasing food intolerances, and new obstacles that seemed to block my path to wellness. However, the one thing I had NOT done, was to reach out to others, seek support, and share my experiences. Thanks to the inspiration of Iris Higgins (AKA Your Fairy Angel), http://www.yourfairyangel.com/meet-your-fairy-angel.html, and her blog The Daily Dietribe, http://www.thedailydietribe.com/, I was prompted to enter The Gluten Free Health Challenge.
This is going to be a very interesting adventure for me, as everything I have done thus far, has been between myself and my very patient, loving, and supportive significant other. There are a handful of folks who know the tip of the iceberg category information. But the whole story has been too much to share, bear, or even explain in most instances.
Starting today, for the next 6 months, myself & 6 other women will be working with health coaches assigned to each of us. Every Tuesday I will have something to share via the blog post on The Daily Dietribe. Each of us participating in the challenge with our coaches, along with all of those who have decided to join along with us, will be sharing, seeking support, learning new recipes, and hopefully learning as much as possible about ourselves, and in relation to how we can each nurture ourselves for the long term. (You can join here: http://www.thedailydietribe.com/p/why-join.html ).
Please join me for this challenge. I am so very excited to be a part of this, and hope we can all reap the benefits of this opportunity.
