I wrote a book about how I self-healed using a holistic approach to mind, body, and spirit with the development of self-love. My main goal for writing this book is to help people realize that we all have the gift of healing.
By taking the Evercoach Life Coaching course, my goal is the get this message out to as many people as possible.
This is the description on the back of my book entitled " How I Did It " with the subtitle "Gently, Simply, Realistically and for Good! My Weight Loss Journey From Type 2 Diabetes to Optimal Health."
For years I avoided the scale and my doctor as I continued to live“the good life.” However, the truth came out the day I finally faced both. I was on the edge of morbid obesity and diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and Forestier disease. I had a choice: I could dig a hole using self-pity as a shovel and stay there for the rest of my short existence, or jump back into life with hope and vitality. Guess which one I chose!
My first goal was to go into diabetic remission. I had to lose a lot of weight and cut back drastically on carbohydrates. Being an expert in yo-yo dieting, why would this time be different? This time, I looked at the whole picture. I dealt with my emotions and my thought processes while eating better and moving more. I faced the truth, cultivated self-love, surrounded myself with the right people and got informed. I built a personal program I could stick with for good.
I did that to save my quality of life. I wrote this book so others might benefit from my experience. This book is not a weight loss program; rather, it is the story of my journey toward optimal health in mind, body and spirit.
“It wasn’t just what I ate, how much food I put on my plate and how little I moved. What it really came down to was why this destructive behaviour had become a pattern in my life.”
