Welcome To Spotlight My Health
Wellness Warriors for Healthy Mind, Healthy Body, Healthy Soul
Would you like to build a strong foundation for long-term
health and wellness? Do you want to feel happier and
more like the you that you want to be?
During my adult life there is one thing I’ve come to realize
that women tend to have in common. That is the occasional
(or possibly constant) feeling that we don’t quite cut it. We fall short
in some way. I think most women that I know feel this way
even if they don’t admit it and it makes me sad and angry at
the same time.
We look in the mirror and don’t see what we think society tells us we
should see. And then our self-talk gets in on it by telling us we
aren’t good enough on the superwoman scale. Or..
**We don’t look like we should.
**I don’t get everything done in a timely manner.
**We don’t do yoga or have time to relax. What is that, anyway?
**Our self-talk asks us ‘who wants to be with someone like me?
**I just don’t have my S&*t together’
Any of this sound familiar?
Spotlight My Health provides informative, common
sense information on health for women from their
home environment to self-understanding. Throw in top-notch
tutorials and how to’s on living holistically, alternative medicine, why meditation is good for stress relief and how I lost 50 lbs. last year and still going. We’ll also look at how to like ourselves, use essential oils for a safer home, unblock our chakras and a plethora of subjects on women’s health and your strong foundation for health is beginning to take shape.

Hiya!
Welcome, I’m Cher—a wife, mother, a good and loyal friend, an avid reader and now a blogger. I’m honest and up front, an out-of-the-box thinker that believes in looking at all aspects of our lives to get the best out of our time that we can. Living holistically for health and wellness fits with that thinking.
I want to help you become who you want to be, realize you are enough, be healthier and happier and help unleash your potential! Let’s get started and help each other on our journey to better health…
Change Your Mindset,
Change Your Life
Spotlight My Health is about becoming more self-aware and developing a better understanding of ourselves as a whole, while also learning to live holistically, healthfully and caring about ourselves.
What Can A Holistic Lifestyle Do For You?
Most of us want our life journey to be as happy as we can make it. Holistic living takes into account all aspects of our lives. Health and happiness from the inside out and everything that surrounds us. Becoming self-aware of the type of life we want is half the challenge.
**Holistic is about being mindful and finding or creating simplicity in our life so we can create the amazing life that we dream about.
**Our life journey is about being mindful and finding or creating simplicity in our life so we can create the amazing life that we dream about.
**A lifestyle that accepts and believes that who we are, is absolutely enough. Living holistically loves the uniqueness we bring to the table.
After all, it takes all types…..right?
One Day
One day you will tell your
story of how you
overcame
what you went through
and it will be someone else’s
survival guide….

**Our life journey is about being mindful and finding or creating simplicity in our life so we can create the amazing life that we dream about.
**We need to practice self-care so we can continue taking care of those we love.
**Through holistic living, self-reflection and knowledge you can unleash your potential!
**Confidence and realizing that you are enough are good things.
Home Health
If our home life isn’t going well, then that affects us and our families.
I’m someone who is greatly affected by my environment. What about you? We can discuss how with our Spotlight My Health Community.
I’ll write about subjects such as: using our time wisely, making time for ourselves or realizing it’s OK to relax and watch a movie with our family. The laundry will always be there. Time with family changes.
Life is accummulative–what we do each day counts–so make each day count!
Self-Understanding
We all think we know what this means, but do we? What does health and wellness have to do with self-understanding? Over the last several years, I’ve been on my own journey of self-awareness and growth. This is a constant, ever-changing journey.
Posts that you will find on this site will have to do with: boosting self-esteem and confidence, reinventing yourself, stress relief and how to relax, liking yourself and your body, self discipline and even self-care. All on a path to health and wellness.
Like the tagline says: healthy mind, healthy body, healthy soul. All are connected, all are needed.
Don’t hesitate to get in touch with me and let me know when you have a particular interest in mind. I’ll be glad to help!
Choose the courage to believe in myself
Surrender to what is
Focus only on what matters…

Women’s Health & Wellness
Why is women’s health and wellness so important?
Simply put, the health and wellbeing of our families and even our communities are in the hands of women. They are the “foundation or bedrock” of our societies.
Women take care of others, they make sure their family’s health and welfare are taken care of, often before their own.
And we do this, a lot of the time, by ignoring ourselves. Having a better understanding of ourselves gives us more freedom to live our lives to the fullest and be truer to our real self, therefore bringing about more happiness.
This is why women and their health is important. Spotlight My Health will present tips and ideas on healthy eating, weight loss, fitness and more.
