Body and Mind AVA-lution with Ava Ellensohn

And yet - at 74, one of my clients qualified as SUPER-PREFERRED.
I’ve never seen “better life insurance rates” listed as a benefit of a healthy lifestyle - but perhaps it should be.

A crisp Florida day and a little something brewing just across the street. New chapter. Same mission. Stay tuned😎

Do the Holidays leave you TIRED-BUT-WIRED, IRRITABLE, or oddly UNMOTIVATED?
The season can be beautiful… and quite overwhelming.

I created a short Holiday Makeover Guide to help you recognize what’s happening in your body and make SMALL, REALISTIC daily adjustments — so you can feel more like yourself and actually enjoy this season.

Inside, you’ll find THREE common holiday ENERGY PATTERNS and simple ways to feel more grounded and at ease — without changing who you are or doing more.

And I’d love to know — which one sounds like you this December?

I turned 50 this year. My mom passed away at 54.
That number once felt heavy. Now, it’s my compass—and the center of my wellness philosophy.

In this month’s newsletter, I share her story, how it shaped me, and became a reason I do what I do.
It’s not about grief. It’s about living well—fully, with intention and joy.
Losing her taught me to live.

Over 50 people got their questions answered at our Gut Health & Weight Loss Seminar last week — it was a fantastic experience to be part of the expert Q&A panel alongside Dr. Cederquist, Jenni Berman Health and Wellness, and Jennifer Alvarez Linguidi with Purely You Spa Services!

Here are just 3 simple takeaways:

• 🍎Diet Over Exercise: While exercise is vital for long-term health and weight management, DIET is key for initial weight loss. One simple step to clean up your diet is to follow EWG’s Clean/Dirty Dozen guide:

• 💪Preserve Muscle Mass: Weight loss shouldn’t come at the expense of muscle. Since the body may break down muscle tissue BEFORE FAT if nutritional needs aren’t met, getting enough quality protein with each meal is a must to preserve strength and LONGEVITY.

• 💡Micronutrients Matter: Deficiencies of some micronutrients can cause many symptoms that people attribute to aging. Low MAGNESIUM levels may be caused by stress — can lead to muscle aches, cramps, constipation, and migraines. Paying attention to your micronutrient intake**.

Making lifestyle changes can feel overwhelming, but the trick is to START SMALL.

As a Health Coach, I’m here to guide and help you to fit new habits into YOUR life, so you can ENJOY life while taking charge of your health.
