Are You Happy? Are You Healthy?
It's Difficult To Be Happy If You're Not Healthy.
Hello, I'm Ellen Skryness and I help people to be healthy and happy through nutrition and meditation.
About me...
I started out as an Elementary School teacher because I was painfully shy, but I wasn't shy with children. I had a Masters in Education, taught for 5 years and then subbed while my children were young. Life was planned and looked great. I'd go back to full time teaching when my youngest was in first grade.
Life is what happens...
Remember John Lennon? He said, "Life is what happens to you while you are making plans." In the late 70's teachers were being laid off in Beverly, Massachusetts and all the communities around here so I found the door closed. I had been teaching yoga and meditation at the Peabody Adult Education Center in Peabody, MA, so I started a business called CALM Consultants, later Ellen Skryness and Associates when I added another person, and it's now On Site Stress Reduction™ in a somewhat different form.
Focusing on stress management...
I enjoyed giving stress management workshops in Banks and small and large businesses such as appraisal companies, Powercube, Uniglobe, Citicorp and McDonalds to name a few. I was teaching in Continuing Education at Salem State, Northern Essex Community College and North Shore Community College and then Boston University. Many nurses were coming to my classes. Through them I started offering workshops in area hospitals. I attended the Boston University School of Public Health and received an M.P.H. degree.
And on teaching meditation...
Northern Essex Community College (NECC) in Haverhill, Massachusetts, offered me a job putting on their Continuing Education courses, hiring teachers, starting certificate programs and I accepted. I worked there for 2 years and then came to North Shore Community College (NSCC) in Danvers, Massachusetts, for the next 14 years. All this time I taught evening courses in meditation and stress reduction because I loved it.
But I felt drained...
I left NSCC administration a few years ago and went back to doing meditation sessions. I felt drained from my intensive schedule -- and I was in a lot of joint pain from arthritis. Every January I had bronchitis and frequent colds or the flu. I learned to cope with the daily pain with meditation. Then I met someone I worked with many years ago who had left her corporate job and had a nutritional supplements business. Since I had a lot of respect for her, I knew the product and company had to be good if she was involved in it. I tried the product. Within the first week I felt lots of energy. By the end of the first year my arthritis pain was gone and I was exercising 4 days a week at the Y, walking for long periods, climbing stairs easily, doing things that I had been unable to do for 15 years. I didn't get bronchitis that January, I rarely get a cold and I feel great.
Nutritional Shakes
I love that these nutritional shakes come in a powder that you mix with water because I can easily understand how taking a liquid is absorbed quickly by my body and gets into my cells. I never did like pills and never took pain pills for arthritis, as I didn't want the side affects, so Reliv is perfect for me.
An Independent Reliv Distributor
I am happier and healthier now than I have been in years. And proud to be an independent Reliv distributor. A successful business is one where you are doing work you enjoy, helping others, and making a profit.
Thank you for your time!
Sincerely,
Ellen Skryness
