CHANGE IS AN AMAZING THING!

“Whats the big hurry? You’re not ever going to get it done, so what are you racing toward? Every single activity that you’re involved in is for one purpose only, and that is to give you a moment of joy. Lighten up. Laugh more. Appreciate more. All is well! “ ~abraham-hicks~

For the next little while this blog is going to turn into a little section of the website for me. It is going to evolve with me, it is going to become EXACTLY what it needs to be. I truly hope some of you find a smile in the writings, a hug when you need one, a kick in the butt when you need some motivation and an opportunity to learn from my learning.

You are going to find this blog very unorganized, very random, very applicable to the site and sometimes not. Some of you may on occasion be offended by my posts or relate to the naked honesty! I am not going to sugar coat, I am not going to sit in pitty of what is or isn’t… I am going on a journey, and I truly hope you come along with me. I don’t know where I am going or what its purpose is… It is what it is.

I am so excited to change up Modish Monkeys… Shake things up. For it has all become so much more than helping other parents, it has become a complete lifestyle for me and my family. Modish Monkeys is my children but also a third child (easier than another c-section, plus I CAN just shut it off when I have had enough of it).

This path we as a family have been on the past three years, has been pretty crazy, amazing, and tumultuous at times. We have changed our lives upside down for the better, but it isn’t going to stop there. It has brought an awareness to me and our family that I can’t even explain…. Just a minute I need to go hug a tree…. Okay I am back. Lol. It has helped me understand the true me! So to all of you, THANK YOU FOR THAT!

Now I am going to pull, and twist and shift the company to become an example to what we can do to correct/ reverse (whatever you want to call it) to bring our children back to health… to bring our families and communities back to health. Because it truly is a LIFESTYLE…. Just a minute, I have to talk to the bird on the deck… lmao. Okay seriously, we need to create the change for our children and their children. WE need to be the change, and walk the walk! In order for our children’s health to be as it should, we need to make changes to ourselves as well… This is not an easy fix, for the machine that is broken is huge!!! But we as moms, dads, families, communities… we can make the changes that combined, make an impact!

We do not inherent the earth from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children!

I can’t even tell you the number of people I have heard of lately diagnosed or dealing with terminal cancer, children fighting it, so many dis-eases! Well what if we work together ~ not on the dis-eases~ but on improving our health, quality of life and happiness to PREVENT dis-ease. Together we can do that. It does start with baby steps, and trust me I/ we are a long way from the finish line, but it sure does feel good making the strides towards it.

I am up to my eyeballs in my studies for my Registered Holistic Nutritionist designation, and thoroughly enjoying being pushed to my last limit mentally! The information I am getting is amazing and life changing. I will share bits and pieces along the way.

It truly doesn’t matter if you are Christian, catholic, Muslim, or Budhist, the changes we can make and awareness we can bring to our lives, through the way we view life, the foods we eat, the life decisions we make, the way we raise our children, the way we treat our siblings, the way we love others, the way we respect the air we breath, the water we drink, the meat we eat, the supplements and minerals we take, the medications we take, the way we talk to another, and the way we love ourselves….

Modish Monkeys is about bringing the Modern Child back to the roots of pure health! It is about dealing with the whole picture, not just band-aid solutions. It is about learning to prevent dis-ease, not just fearing and treating dis-ease. It is about being a support for the parents of children dealing with the modern childhood epidemics. It is not about blaming, and trying to figure out what has caused it all. It is about the children, and making the changes necessary for them, it is about these children bringing an awareness to us that things need to change! Together we can be that change. Lets take strides together, side by side, to be the change for these children and bring them back to the roots of pure health.

Here is to an exciting 2011!!!
