Message from the Director
| "Wellness" is the buzzword of 2011 as there is a definite shift going on in the United States right now. More and more people are deciding to take control of their own health and well being. We all want to be WELL. Drugs and surgery can only do so much, and often times are just a way of alleviating symptoms or eradicating manifestations of an illness, rarely getting to the real root of the problem. The truth is: The only way to get better is to get healthy. It's time to start living green, eating organic, and taking care of our bodies- the holistic way. But many people need help in making this shift. The number one complaint I hear is, "I don't have the money to live healthier." When you're struggling to buy groceries, it's hard to buy organic milk for $3.99 when you can get Borden's for $2.99. It's hard to pay for acupuncture treatments when your insurance only covers traditional doctors within your coverage network, and that's if you even have health insurance! My goal is to give people access to top quality wellness products and services at an affordable price. I want to surround them with a community of healthy choices. Wellness is more than just buying organic milk or taking a yoga class, it's a lifestyle. I've created the Jersey Shore Wellness Network to help and support anyone wanting to make that shift to a healthy and environmentally friendly lifestyle. It's also very important to me to help the businesses, providers, and organizations which supply & provide these healthy products and services. I didn't start this network to make money, I started it to SAVE PEOPLE MONEY. Sincerely, Carrie Holmes & Michelle Leonard |
