I missed working on my newsletters and communicating with my clients and subscribers over the past two months. I hope this email finds you in great health and inspired to lead a healthier, more active lifestyle.
I had to take a little step back as I lost my dear mum five weeks ago. And it hit me really hard. Perhaps because she did not suffer for months or years on end or shown signs of slowing down to prepare me for the loss of losing my last parent. She was just a few days short of the age of 79 when she passed away. She had a heart attack and, while we managed to get there in time and spent time with her thinking all will be well giving her hope that indeed she has survived, she was taken away by good by the stroke that followed few hours later. There was no suffering and she had an end that she would have wished for if presented with an option - not to be a burden to anyone nor tied to a bed unable to support herself.
I miss her deeply. I always will. Part of her lives in me and always will.
Heart disease is silent. I always remind my clients - it is what is going on inside our bodies is what counts, not the appearance. Your health is so much more than number on the scales. 79 is a nice age as my mum took great care of her health and weight and remained active & socialising to the very last day, but, the truth is, these days, as obesity and lack of nutrition are on the incline, many are not so lucky to even get close to that age or to have a quality life to their very end. ... Weight issues do suggest risk factors exist, without doubt. Lack of disease or impairment or ailment does not suggest person is healthy, as many think.
So, as I will invest more of my time in trying to understand heart disease, one thing is clear - health is our biggest wealth and more of us can do a lot better. So, do not to give up on your health efforts and goals.
If your goal is to get healthier & fitter, but you feel you are losing your way, feel free to reach out for advice, help and support. That is what I do. With passion.
