Hey Beautiful People,

Are you putting on your oxygen mask? What? You know. When you are on an airplane and the flight attendant says (while most are ignoring them), "Put the oxygen mask on yourself before helping a child or other person."

Why do they say that? Because if you aren't breathing well, you are no good at helping other people.

When we are not taking care of ourselves in our everyday lives, we will end up inadequately able to help others. Taking care of ourselves does not mean a narcissistic focus on self.

When we possess energy, stamina and good health, we can focus more on others. It's a fact. When I was in poor health, I didn't want to be selfish, but I was. I focused inward because I didn't have the strength to think about anyone else. I could barely help myself.

Putting that oxygen mask on daily means, of course, nourishing yourself with

nutrient dense food, but it means even more. It means adequate sleep,

moving your body daily, laughter, fun, prayer and family time. It also means little things like having your vitamin D levels checked especially in this time of Covid and not overscheduling your time.

These are all things I have to consciously decide to do daily and there are days that I don't hit the mark. I will continue to strive to breath in all those oxygen bursts. When I do, I am so much better at helping others. Are you with me?

Wishing you and family a blessed and meaningful holiday season.

Grace, Peace and Love,

Susan came to me on several different medications for high blood pressure and rheumatoid arthritis.

I was so proud of her for following through with all of my recommendations. I was also happier than a pig in slop when she came off so many medications. This is because Susan's body healed and she was able to greatly reduce inflammation.

When I first started my practice years ago, I used several clinically proven nutrients to lower blood sugar in my pre diabetes/diabetes patients. I did my homework and found this formulation that had most of these nutrients. I always use food first and put these people on a pancreas stabilization, anti inflammatory, blood sugar lowering diet. When this supplement is combined, I've seen amazing drops in A1C (a diabetic marker).

This is a supplement that I take daily being a "diabetic ready to happen."

It's important to work with a health care practitioner before starting any supplement. If you have Afib or certain heart conditions, you should not take this supplement.

I was honored to be nominated for Wilma Magazine's Yearly Women to Watch in the health category. This was a challenging year for this nomination. Instead of the big gala celebration, the awards ceremony was a small affair at a rooftop restaurant in the Wilmington Convention Center with just the finalists. It was lovely, but sad in many ways. Nevertheless, I was honored. 

For several years, my husband Bryan and I have supported an incredible woman, Sue Witt, in Haiti. "Miss Sue" is a retired school teacher from the US who now lives in Haiti. She traveled there 20 years ago to teach, but God had other plans. People saw her care and kindness and continued to bring her children. Now Sue cares for upwards of 50 children and primarily uses her retirement funds to do this.

We have tried for the past 2 years to get back to Haiti to help Miss Sue, but because of national unrest and Covid, we are unable. When we were working there in 2018, I was able to work with one of Sue's kids, Shelly, who presents with CP. You can't imagine how excited I was when Sue told me that Shelly is now walking! This was because of constant PT and being nurtured. Sue is the person I want to be "when I grow up."

I just received word from Miss Sue and wonderful things are always happening. They just saved a baby

found in an outside toilet and now Sue can care for her.

Unfortunately, she also wrote:

No pressure, but let me know if you can help Sue's Children's Home in any way. Your donation will be securely handled in the US and is tax deductible. To donate, please email me at lindy@lindyfordwellness.com
