​A big part of wellness for me is learning new things and getting out of your comfort zone. Have you ever tried EAL? What is EAL? I didn’t understand what it was until I actually did it. EAL stands for Equine Assisted Learning.

What I got out of it was understanding life lessons thru working with horses. This was both educational and fun at the same time.

We started off in a classroom-like setting, learning about how we are similar and different to horses. Then we got to groom and work with the ponies. It was fun to learn how to read what the pony was trying to tell you non-verbally.

My favorite part was going to the pasture to do the obstacle course. One of the activities we did was getting your pony to stand on a glove. My daughter got hers to do it right away, but it took me forever to get mine to listen to me! This was my biggest take away from the day for me. My pony wasn’t listening to me because I was looking back at him instead of looking forward. I learned that to lead a horse you need to look the direction you want to go, which also translates into life. Always look forward at things to come instead of looking back with regrets.

Other activities we did were getting the pony to go backwards, walking them around cones, getting them to stop moving. and learning how to change their harness. Although, I think the funniest thing of the night was when my pony just laid down and started rolling on the ground! Everyone was laughing but it turns out that ponies do that when they are really relaxed around you.

Doing EAL was a great experience for the whole family. We all learned a lot and had fun doing it. It was also amazing to me how you forget about everything else going on in your life while you are doing this. I was definitely a great stress-relieving activity!

We found out how important when our daughter got sick! We had struggled for years not knowing what was actually wrong with her. We tried all kinds of things to get her healthy with no luck. I had known about blood testing all along, but I knew having worked with vitamins for years that they take time. I just wanted her better NOW!
Well, turns out I wasted lots of time trying everything else. Once we got her blood tested and got her on the right diet and vitamins… we started seeing improvement. This is actually when we were introduced to the BEMER. By using the BEMER, the vitamins and nutrients got to the cells faster and we started getting the results we were hoping for by speeding up the recovery time!
Ellie Cullen, owner of YFH has been wonderful to work with. I owe my daughter’s well-being to her. Words cannot express how grateful I am to have worked with her!
I highly recommend if you are struggling with something or you want to be proactive about your health that you check out www.yourfuturehealth.com.

​Here are Ellie’s Reasons why you need to have your blood tested:

First, your blood reflects the current condition of virtually every aspect of your body. If you’ve got a cold, your blood analysis will reflect it. A consistent elevation of blood sugar is evidence of diabetes. There is very little about your biological condition that your blood does not reveal.

Second, your blood chemistry reflects pending diseases well in advance of symptoms. So regular, comprehensive blood testing allows emerging medical problems to be dealt with in the earliest, most treatable stages.

Third, when the results of your blood tests aren’t the best, you can almost always improve them through diet and vitamin supplements—that is, through nutrition. We cannot emphasize this point more strongly. We have seen, time and time again, that a nutritional program customized to each person’s unique biochemistry is the most effective way to help prevent or solve just about every health problem. In extreme cases, medical treatment and drugs may be necessary, but the vast majority of our clients have responded quite well to dietary changes alone. A nutrition plan customized to each person’s biochemistry (determined from blood analysis) very effectively balances the nutrients which are most essential to good health.

If you are looking for a spa-like experience for your dog, check out Chelle’s Paw Spa in Mentor, OH. We take both our dogs to Chelle’s Paw Spa and they love it. They aren’t scared to go in there. I used to have to carry them into the groomers to get a bath. Michelle has a great space and a big yard that they can roam around in while they are waiting to get picked up. She completely spoils the dogs and makes sure they go home all pampered and smelling great. Her prices are very reasonable too!
