As we approach the halfway mark of the year, it is a good time to reflect on not only where we have been but where we are going. What goals did you set for the year, and how are they working out? This shouldn't be a shaming exercise where you beat yourself up for not doing everything you set out to do this year. Rather, a chance to notice the little things you have done right. Celebrate the little victories and the subtle shifts.
One question that comes up for me often is Why Home, Health, and Happiness as a business name? Well, for me, when I think about health and happiness, it starts really at home. And I am not talking about your physical home, though that can be important too. More than the home that lies inside you. Your foundation, your soul, your heart. When we find happiness inside ourselves, that comfort with who we are, that light that brings us joy and sparks creativity, we see our center, our foundation, a strength that can hold us while we journey through our health. I have spent the last eight, almost 9 years trying to figure out what was going on with my body. When we go through changes, whether it is pregnancy or any other health change, it isn't always a smooth road, as I found out.
I started this journey to fix myself and decided I could help someone else along the way. Dealing with the root cause and peeling back the layers of the onion takes time, kindness, and patience with ourselves and the people we love in our lives. I love that I get to help people rediscover what makes them tick. It is a gift, and one I am grateful for, to hold the hands of many while we walk through our tangled webs of life and feel centered, grounded, and happy with who we are now. Not when we have hit every fitness goal, but now as we discover who we are underneath it all.
So, as we charge into the second half of the year, pause, take a deep breath, let it out slowly, and take time to enjoy where you are in your health process. Know that at Home, Health, and Happiness, we celebrate being you and find love and beauty from within.
