March is all about spring and new beginnings…and it’s my birth month. It is a renewal of our spirits, our bodies, the clothes we wear and the food we eat. It’s a time for clearing, cleansing and preparing for greatness. Try putting some white clothing on, because it will give you a fresh new take on things. White is the color for wiping the slate clean and for new beginnings. Clear out the clutter in your mind, your closet and your belly. Spring is here and it’s time to let it all go.

Winter is notorious for gaining that extra 5, maybe even 10, pounds. Come March, we want to shed that extra weight. At this time of year we are also eager to shed the heavy BLACK coats, gloves and boots for lighter, more COLORFUL jackets and open toed shoes. Preparing for these clothes and our well-being, there are some wonderful foods to help us lose those unwanted pounds, getting our bodies ready for the spring and summer months. Click here to find out what colors will help you make a seamless transition from Winter to Spring!

Detoxifying your body is a great way to begin your Spring, because we need to rid ourselves of all the fattening and warming foods we’ve been consuming these last few months. Now is the time to start adding cooling foods. We want our bodies to acclimate to the coming warmer, summer months. One cooling food to eat is alfalfa sprouts. But there are so many more cooling foods to add to your diet...click here to find out what they are.

Enjoy the beginning of your renewal by shedding those extra pounds, eating alfalfa sprouts and other cooling foods. I offer wonderful cooking classes through Amazon Local, teaching you how to use colors purposefully while cooking and preparing meals. You can also go outside for a walk, soaking up the warmer weather. Did you know that just 30 minutes of exercise a day brings longevity to your life, lowering your cholesterol and blood pressure? It also changes your state of mind, making you feel great, and as we know, the mind is the key to it all. It’s time to get rid of that fear and worry and let go of that BLACK, heavy self-doubt.

You know what they say? “Luck is when preparation meets opportunity.” So let the air of spring flow into your body, mind and soul and bring in some COLOR. That's the preparation. Have fun and play around with yellow, green and orange. Feel the Renewal of your energy and spirit. You deserve it!

Happy Spring!!!

Have a Colorful Day,

I hope you are enjoying March and getting ready for Spring. GREEN is the color of Spring. And did you know that Friday is the Day of GREEN? Happy Friday. So put on some GREEN today and see what transpires.

GREEN is all about BALANCE, HARMONY and WELL-BEING. GREEN is one of the most restful colors there is. It symbolizes Life Force. It's also about money and expansion. By surrounding yourself with and wearing the color GREEN, you are opening up your Heart Chakra, creating energy that allows for more abundance, expansion and growth. You are literally creating a space to bring new opportunities into your life. How powerful is that?

Here's a fun little history fact for you. Did you know that Egyptians actually wore GREEN eyeliner and thought that it was healing to the eyes? Why do you think this is? Because wearing GREEN around your eyes helps to open up your vision and see new possibilities, because GREEN is about expansion and growth.

Eating lots of GREEN foods will also aid in opening up your Heart Chakra, giving you a sense of BALANCE and HARMONY. Start eating SPINACH. It helps alleviate Migraines. Spinach also helps with eye sight. So try wearing GREEN eyeliner or eyeshadow while eating spinach and get ready for some Superwoman vision.

So make it a make it a GREEN Friday, wearing and surrounding yourself with the color GREEN and see how balanced and free you will begin to feel.

Have a Colorful Day,
