Impulsivity and Jumping in

"Hello, my name is Sharissa Bradley and I am impulsive"
"Hi Sharissa!!"

Almost every decision I have made I have made it impulsively: saying yes to my husbands proposal, having my first baby (and my second), taking jobs, buying a home, buying my car, starting projects etc. I am that person who can convince anyone of anything (maybe manipulative is a better word) and can convince myself of the next best thing like no ones business. But when it came to taking the plunge in my own health it took months of research and explaining and long periods of self doubt before I came to the conclusion that I had nothing else to lose.

Can anyone tell me why it is that when it comes to our health we can come up with one million excuses to not take the next step? Too expensive, cannot afford a coach, cannot afford to eat healthy, I am going to start on the first of the month, I need to start on a Monday but I keep messing up Monday morning so I have to wait a whole week to start again.

Why is this? Why isn't our health our number one priority. If you are sitting at home again spending another day too tired, too sick, or simply or not feeling well enough to be social or playing with your family then how come you cannot see it is time for change? Don't feel bad...I did the same thing. But why?

I want to tell you a little something about being an impulsive person that is so incredibly frustrating. I can be very easily convinced to try new things...next week I am jumping out of an airplane, this past Friday I walked a red carpet as a model (a 30 year old mom of 2 little kids...yes ME) because I am tired...truly sick and tired of letting my health control my life. I JUMPED and you should too.

For some reason we can be so easily convinced to buy the latest gadget, a new TV, remodel our house...but when it comes to spending money on changing your life it is so hard to make that leap. I know from experience. I spent most of my life satisfied with the fact that I was always going to be tired and weak and uncomfortable in my clothes because my doctor said that was a normal process of getting older. I was skeptical of the health trends and fads (or so I thought). When I finally hit my rock bottom I had no choice but to seek out alternative care. I went to acupuncture, chiropractic, integrative medicine doctors, and herbalists. I finally started to see some relief, that in combination with changing my diet I was able to reverse heal and become whole. It is hard to explain health to someone who has never felt well...I am selling you on a dream that you didn't know you could dream. When I was sick there was no one like me to help, I couldn't find someone who would hold my hand and teach me how to not only survive but thrive...so when I got well enough I became that person for everyone else. You do not have to suffer any more, you just have to determine what your health and life is worth to you. Do you want this to be your quality of life now? Or do you want the dream you didn't even know you could dream about?

Be well and thank you for reading,
