Introduction Text Hi! I'm Helen. I have a wonderful husband and 5 children. Each one has a completely different personality and different strengths and weaknesses, so they keep me hopping, trying to parent them all in their own ways... We live in NJ and we homeschool. I was born in Brazil to missionary parents and went to high school and college in Wisconsin. I studied Music Therapy in college and then worked with Alzheimer's patients for 5 years before having children. I am attempting to implement various things in my weight-loss journey: the Gabriel Method (especially his visualizations on my ipod), nutritarian eating (Dr. Fuhrman's eating plan), EFT, bilateral stimulation, brainwave music, daily affirmations, a bullet journal, mood charting, Whole Woman Yoga, riding the exercise bike (while reading a book), doing the Leslie Sansone walk at home videos, an online bootcamp membership, implementing healthy routines and getting rid of bad habits, Vimala handwriting/character building and flylady routines. I now also am adding Intermittent Fasting to my healthy habits, eating between 9am and 2pm and fasting the rest of the time.

My goals... 1. To obey God in my eating. 2. To exercise every day 3. To keep my house tidy and clean 4. To train the children to love and honor God and love and honor people.

I live in New Jersey. I spent high school and college years in Wisconsin and was born and raised in Brazil, a daughter of missionaries from Minnesota.

I enjoy music... playing the piano, guitar, recorder, singing... I used to play the oboe but have TMJ, so have given it up. I have a degree in Music Therapy and worked with Alzheimer's patients for 5 years. I also enjoy making jewelry for myself and have an interest in personality types, style, make-up, color palettes, gardening and sewing. I make a lot of my own clothes and I cut my own hair with a flowbee. I like painting with watercolors. I enjoy reading self-improvement books and I bullet journal. I try to follow the FlyLady's advice on keeping the home clean and tidy.
