I have such a passion for passing on what I have learned to my mommy clients to help them make the entire family healthier. Last week, one of my clients totally made my day, now this may not be as exciting to you, but to me, it was one more step in the right direction as a family to become healthier. I simply shared with my client that I used a shaker cup for my shakes when I'm on the go and how easy it was. She picked one up, and the kids were amazed by it. There was nothing special about the cup, well maybe to a kid, it had a wisk ball in it. So my mommy client decided to take advantage of the awesomeness this shaker cup had. She told her 2 children that it was only for healthy drinks, meaning water and the meal replacement shakes. The kids totally ran with it, and are now drinking more water on a daily basis than ever before! Normally, they would not of drank water, it would of been juice or something along those lines. To see a mommy so happy she has her kids drinking more water and less sugary drinks was a blessing to me. By helping one mommy with her fitness and nutriton habits, I have been able to slowly help transform a family. She has gone from a mommy that would sit at the park while the kids played, to now she is out running around with them climbing through tunnels. When I hear things like this, I know I have made a difference in not only her life, but in our kids.
What a lesson I learned, we dont have to be the strict parent that says now we have to do this, find a creative way to make it a fun and interesting change, and it will be a lasting one. You will be surprised at how fast one little change will snowball into many more.
