Sometimes I get reminded of things that I have learned before but stopped thinking about or stopped doing.  Then I like find it again and then it is like WOW! I never should have stopped.  Does that every happen to you?

Water - water is vitally important and we take it for granted or ignore it completely.  

Our body is made up of systems.  Our systems need basic requirements to function properly and then another amount to function OPTIMALLY. 

I can rationalize anything so that I feel good about my decisions.  But I am making the best decision for what my body requires to be optimal?  Sometimes not - I can drink this soft drink - there is water in there.  (If you are a coffee drinker you may think about coffee that way too)  And there seems to be enough water to keep us alive.

Is that what you want?  To be alive or do you want to be OPTIMAL?

So I just quit drinking Diet Coke - I know, I know, it is bad for me in so many ways.  But I love it!  Anyway, I have quit again and this time no caffeine headache.  What! You may be thinking, yes no headache.  I started increasing my water intake my goal was to get to 2 litres a day.  I was focused on increasing the good and not focused on the bad.  I found that I didn’t have time to drink the Diet Coke.  And then all of a sudden I was like, “I guess no Diet Coke today.”  And I haven’t even had an urge since then.

Amazing right?!

I feel FANTASTIC!    

Good clean water is preferred.  If you drink it out of the tap it has been treated.  What does that mean - I don’t want to know.  But I can almost guarantee you that there is fluoride in it.  Google that and then find ways to drink filtered water.  The cleaner the better.  One step at a time to improving your water intake.  

This is how I look at.  If my body systems are so busy trying to clean out the crap (toxins and fake nutrients) then it can not preform optimally.  My job is to help my body preform at it’s best.  

Increase my water intake and make sure it is a clean as I can get it.

I figured it out! And now I feel great!


All my life I thought I was normal.
  • burped all the time
  • always had Tums with me
  • bloating - pain
  • binge ate
I had my gull bladder out at age 20 which I thought was normal. I was just like most of the females in my family.

My symptoms got worse over time.
  • IBS or no poop at all - plan my outings to where the washrooms are
  • brain fog - can not complete sentences or my thoughts
  • extreme fatigue - like can't get off the couch and the TV is NOT even on tired
I felt like I was losing myself. Everything I ate or drank made me feel yucky!

THEN in my early 40’s I became gluten intolerant. 

Was I headed for a crash?? So scary!

And terrified about how the rest of my life was going to be like. I have always planned to live a long life but I want to be active and health while I do it.

I was feeling like an old person: always know where the bathroom was, wear stretchy clothes to accommodate the food baby and bloating, achy joints, brain fog, and wanting sleep all the time. I wasn’t living the life the way I wanted.

Hope comes from unexpected places; right? My step daughter was using essential oils and loved them AND she was using them on my grandkids. So if she trusted it so much  - I have it a try. There was a kit that I bought and in it was a blend called Digize. Oh My Gosh! All I did was put it where I was hurting and got immediate results! I was shocked and amazed. Life was going to be good after all, phew.

Because I had such great results with Digize I then had confidence to learn and try other products to help my gut. It was like night and day! I NEVER know what it actually felt like to FEEL GOOD. I didn’t know - now I do.

Do you know what it is like to feel good?

Life is meant to be lived. I crave new experiences all the time. Now that I have sorted out my digestive issues I can get on with learning new things and creating fantastic experiences.
