After years of grappling with my disdain for this Hallmark holiday, I finally figured it out: It’s not about the love I have from someone else, but the love I have for myself!
For the past few years, on Valentine’s Day, I celebrate self love and make sure to do something extra kind for myself like buy myself flowers or take myself on a date.
So, I encourage you to approach today from that mindset. If you need some ideas, keep reading. Today's newsletter is longer than usual but stick with me, because there are lots of Valentine's Day goodies inside!
And FIRST, I want to share with you one of my own dearest loves … DRUMROLL …
I present to you, the new look of Marissa’s Well-being and Health (MWAH!)
For months, I’ve been focused on creating a web site that embodies so much of who I am as a Health Coach and reflects my own personality and style. THIS IS IT!
What I love most is that my web site and blog, Where I Need to Be, are now in one place so you can access all my juicy content in one stop. I’ll still be bringing you my recipes and health tips, but I’ll be peppering in a few special blog series to give you even more content than ever before. More about that in a bit.
For now, set your blog and RSS feeds accordingly, check-in regularly and post those comments!
And NOW, feast your eyes on THIS, because I’m feeling extra-generous today.
To celebrate my new web site and blog, I’m offering a LOVE special so you can get started showing yourself some love. Here’s how it works:
For the next 30 days, when you sign up for my LOVE package, you get:
- Two 50-minute sessions per month by phone or in person (your choice)
- Unlimited e-mail support between sessions
- A variety of handouts that will increase your nutrition knowledge
- Coaching and support to help you make the dietary and lifestyle changes you want
- Access to my monthly newsletter with the latest health tips and recipes
- A subscription to a healthy living magazine of your choice for even more support and guidance
My popular Green Your Diet Teleclass: Top Tips for a Plant-based Approach to Eating. Whether you are trying to cut back on the amount of animal products you eat, jump in and go vegan or dip your toe in to participate in Meatless Mondays, this tele-class will guide you through the essentials of making your own diet more plant-friendly.
And for a limited time, I’ll also throw in my Kiss Your Sugar Cravings Goodbye Teleclass. If you’re plagued by sugar cravings (and let’s face it, who isn’t?), you’ll want to get your hands on this class which comes complete with your own eBook.
Get more details about the LOVE special ...
And there’s MORE!?! Oh, yes.
When you take advantage of the LOVE special, you’ll get an exclusive discount card for the new Lower East Side raw foods hot spot Gingersnap's Organic, good for discounts every time you eat in or take-away from the café.
And finally, need new running shoes? A hot new yoga outfit? I’ll gift you with $10 to use towards your next purchase at Jackrabbit Sports.
All of this for the discounted price of $999!
Take advantage now because this offer only lasts until March 14. After that, it’s back to business as usual. Still awesome, but not nearly as exciting as:
- 6 months of life-changing health coaching
- 2 motivating tele-classes
- exclusive discounts to some of my favorite local retailers
Go here to purchase the LOVE special.
But I’m just getting started because now I want to tell you what will be going on at my blog for the next few months as I launch two new special blog series.
The Healthy Hot Spots series will feature a different restaurant each week. As a New Yorker, I like to dine at all the hippest restaurants but that doesn’t mean I sacrifice my healthy lifestyle. You’ve asked for it and now I’ll guide you to the healthiest dishes in Manhattan and offer tips for how to order to ensure you’re getting the most nutrition for your dollar. This will be your sneak peak into my personal dining secrets.
And last but certainly not least, the Women In Wellness series is a project that is near and dear to my heart. I’m so inspired by the strides that women are making in the field of wellness and without them to inspire me, I would not be where I am today. Every Friday, I’ll profile the women in wellness who have inspired me by asking them five questions that get to the heart and soul of who they are. I’ll be featuring yoga greats like Sharon Gannon of Jivamukti Yoga, spiritual sisters like Gabrielle Bernstein and wellness warriors like Denise Mari, founder of Organic Avenue.
Until then, check out today’s blog post for a healthy, last minute Valentine’s Day treat. These take no time to make and chocolate + mint make a freakin’ delicious pair anytime of year, it’s my favorite combo.
With lots of heartfelt love,
Marissa
