My Story
Hi Everyone! Welcome to my wellness website and store where I hope to inspire you to learn about how to enhance your own wellness and achieve your own personal wellness goals.
I am a retired high school teacher and guidance counsellor. I grew up in a wonderful family, but sadly lost my two parents, who both died far too young, from serious illnesses.
They had both passed away by the time I was 21 years of age, and I suffered from anxiety about my own health, and feared dying at an early age myself.
I had a satisfying and enjoyable career teaching English, Math, Sciences, Health and I even introduced a new course in Psychology at the high school where I was employed.
I took special training in counselling and loved helping my students with their personal, social, and emotional problems as their school counsellor.
During this time I was also busy with raising our two sons, so there was a lot of stress, juggling family and career for many years.
Finally, about forty years ago,I experienced an incident that set me free from my fear of dying young.
MY younger son and I were in a serious head-on highway collision, and when I saw the car suddenly swerving into my lane, right at my vehicle, I thought," I am going to die!"
After the impact, I was shocked to still be alive- and I knew instantly that I was saved!
My son (who was 4 years of age) was also protected! I knew this was a miracle and I spoke out loud," Thank you God for saving me! From now on I am going to live for for you!!"
I read Psalm 91 right after the accident and it confirmed to me that I and my son were supernaturally protected. My faith journey began - my fear of dying was gone!
The car accident was a huge turning point for my whole family. Even the police had said that it was a miracle that we had survived!
So, how was I going to live my life now? I had to share my story and encourage others to be set free and live by faith, too!
There happened to be a club called ISCF in my high school, (Inter School Christian Fellowship) and I was asked to sponsor and mentor the students in this club, so I gladly agreed. This was so rewarding for me - to see young people grow in their faith and pray for their family, friends, and teachers.
One aspect of my life that needed to improve was my physical health, but I didn't have much time and energy to deal with it. Twenty years ago my husband got a phone call from a friend who told him about a new wellness company. My husband did his research and decided to join this unique company called Trivita which promoted physical, emotional, and spiritual health and wellness.
I knew about the emotional and spiritual, but didn't really know much about nutrition , so at that time, I didn't believe in taking supplements and natural products! I refused to try anything new, until one day I realized that maybe I needed to open my mind!
I was always catching colds and the flu from my students and this ruined many of my holidays. So, I decided to take Trivita's Vital C tablets, to see if they could make a difference. To my surprise- there was a huge improvement from that point on! My immune system needed that vitamin and my resistance to the viruses drastically improved ! From that point on, I became much more open to learning about nutrients and physical wellness.
I became motivated to learn more and have been on a 20 year journey of improving my health and knowledge ever since.
My passion is to support and encourage anyone who wants to make improvements in his or her health - whether they be in the physical, emotional, or spiritual aspects of health and wellness! TriVita has played a very important role in my journey, and I am very grateful to be well and able to help others!
