“Make time daily to nurture your physical, mental and emotional health.”
― Lailah Gifty Akita
Please read Part 1 before you read this.
A few weeks later I read an Underwood Elementary School newsletter, realized November 11th was Veteran's Day, and emailed all of the people I'd set up meetings with that day to reschedule so we could go on a family adventure.
Glenn Laffel, M.D., Ph.D., and founder of Wellcoin, the "dude" I said I'd meet with at 4 that day, never got the email.
Ahhhhh, cyberspace.
Ahhhhh, the magic of the Universe.
We had an amazing day with our family in Providence, RI at Brown and the kids wanted to stay out late but something, something told me we hadda scoot home. Very unlike me. I am very in the moment and Philippe is usually the one who has to remind me to leave the party.
We pulled into our driveway at 3:57 pm and unloaded kids and stuff and the doorbell rang.
And there was Glenn.
"Oh," I blurted out, "We just walked in the door from the day out (there was stuff strewn about). I rescheduled our meeting. Did you get my email?" As soon as the words left my lips I wished I hadn't said em as Glenn apologized that no, he hadn't, and offered to come back another time.
"Absolutely not," I soothed. "Now is as good a time as any."
Then Glenn told us about Wellcoin, a health currency that he and his partner JP were launching, and did Prana Power Yoga want to be involved?
Wellcoin is a unique online health and wellness platform that celebrates and rewards healthy behaviors and achievements of its users and creates ways for local merchants to join the fun, generate new business and strengthen ties with their customers.
Talk about a slam dunk.
It was such a great idea, such a no-brainer to me, such a fantastic tool for real social change in our country in health care, that I blurted out (again, but this time with no remorse), "Who WOULDN'T wanna be a part of it?" Glenn sensed my candor and excitement and did something he don't do in these meetings. He asked if I'd like to help spread the word.
The answer was clear, as it always is when you're aligned and grounded (get on your mat for that), and I've been spreading the word about Wellcoin ever since.
Now I can write and love to do so, but just like no one takes care of your kid like you do and similarly, no one writes about Prana Power Yoga like I do, Glenn himself best describes Wellcoin, so check it out now at Wellcoin.com.
And join. Become a part.
Like I said, slam dunk and no brainer.
Let's take our health in our own hands people.
And like Glenn says, "This is going to be fun!"
