Who am I?
I am a holistic health coach, an artist and an aspiring writer, living her own journey of self-discovery. Everyday is one day closer to the day I take my Pleap (Pink Leap of Faith).
I am living outloud with Multiple Sclerosis. I think of MS as my uninvited guest. We live in harmony and I learn alot from MS. MS has taught me that we all have the power to heal ourselves and that food is medicine. MS has shown me my calling. Helping others heal themselves is a great honor. I look forward to a life spent doing just that - bringing love and light into the world.
You can learn more about my coaching practice at: Chronic Wellness Coaching. If you are interested in a free health consultation, please contact me at chronic.wellness@yahoo.com.
You can follow my self-care writings at:
www.owningpink.com
Or join me on facebook or twitter.
My spiritual connection is strongest when in connection with the earth. I make beautiful, whimsical functional pottery to keep me grounded and creative. Heck, pottery sustains me.

You will find the broth recipe in your cleanse manual. Also, you might want to join us in the private cleanse posse so you are getting full support.
See you there.

Best of luck in your move. And thanks for checking in."

Laurie Erdman posted a blog postMy 21-day challenge starts today. Will you join me?
Hi there, Today I decided to start a 21-day challenge where I would give one gift a day (large or small, no matter) and publicly record 3 things I am grateful for each day. You can read about my challenge here: http://wp.me/pULrq-m6 I would love it if you all join me in this little experiment. I am curious to see what happens. What will I feel? How will I change? If you would like to join me in this challenge, you can record your 21 gifts…See More
Laurie Erdman commented on the group 'Pink RECIPES!'"I absolutely agree about how wonderful the book I Am Grateful is. This morning I am making my version of their granola. Yummy."
Laurie Erdman commented on the group 'Green Juice Detox Cleanse Posse With Tricia Barrett'"Monica, that is great. That would be the power of alkalizing your system and reducing inflammation. Keep up the good work. And so you know, I'm answering your green juice/protein powder question on FemCentral next…"
Laurie Erdman commented on the group 'Networking Pinkies'"Ah, my first post here. I'm on the verge - 38 more days to go - until I have ditched my day job and am a full-time health and wellness coach. I love to help people transform their chronic illness into chronic wellness.

I have a favor to ask.
In one week, I will be attempting to ride 30 miles in the "Beyond the Beltway, Bike MS ride". My training has been hampered by schedules and the heat. But if the weather is pleasant, I will get on my bike and ride. My husband (rain, shine, sleet or hail) will be riding 100 miles. Together, we have raised over $14,000 for MS research. I am $60 from my goal.
Why do I ride? Because I know what it is like to live with this disease. I was diagnosed last December.…

Investigating retreat centers
I have a request. I've been feeling the need for a retreat. In years past, I used to head to the Northern CA coast, usually Mendocino. I just loved it there. I would create my own retreat and would do my own thing - hike, journal, read, sketch, eat great food.
I'm on the east coast now, and not interested in flying across country - somehow the thought of the flight back after all that relaxation and self-exploration doesn't feel right. So I'm looking for east coast locales.… Continue

- So right!
You see, when it comes to us we seem to forget how captivating and helpful and inspiring has been to read or listen to others. We criticize and judge ourselves even before we start thinking....... Too bad!
My blog, not out in the air yet, will be called http://knittingmylife.blogspot.com/ but will be in Greek. After a long inner debate on this, I decided I should write in my native language so I can express myself more easily and be more exact. Language has always been a very powerful tool for me, and it's important that I'm 100% sure of what I'm talking about.... However, this means I can't have non-Greek speaking readers, but hopefully it'll make a change (smaller or bigger) to our community.
After all, I'll still be here in Owning Pink...

- Hi there and Merry Christmas! Life is more fun when we search for things we're still learning to understand. I'm right there with you, sister. All the way. And what a wonderful path we're finding!
I wondered how I missed your joining here but I think that week after MM was such a bumble for me. I remember little about it and I got by here less often. So let me welcome you heartfeltly, if belatedly:)
BTW- I must ask. What are those yellow things you're making in your picture? I love these pics. So many sides of you and that lovely uplifting vase I adore:)
Join us- because there's more power in collaboration than in competition. Come network, make friends, and be UNAPOLOGETICALLY YOU!
