The Journey Begins

Thanks for joining me!  My name is Karen Lockhart and we recently moved to Colorado from Upstate New York to be closer to family!  The above picture shows perfectly our drive across the plains and the first view of the Colorado Rockies!  It also captures the long, seemingly endless road I was on after having been diagnosed with invasive breast cancer and I couldn’t yet see where this journey would take me.

I’ve been thinking of starting a blog for quite a long time as a way to share the information I have learned, and am still learning, on how to restore health after a cancer diagnosis and how to continue on this journey of aging well. A day doesn’t go by when I don’t think of how great it would be to be sharing some nutrition tip or lifestyle tweak!  I get excited learning about how amazing our human body is and better ways to take care of it!

I’m also very passionate about giving hope to people who are feeling overwhelmed and don’t know where to turn when having received a cancer diagnosis.  Cancer can be overcome and you can do what it takes to give your body all that it needs to heal!  You need to know that and hear it a lot!  I want to be one of the people who keep telling you!

In this blog, I’ll be writing about my diagnosis of invasive breast cancer when in my late thirties and what I did to overcome it.  I’ll share lots of tips and information that I learned during this very stressful time and what I’ve been doing to keep from getting another cancer diagnosis.  Plus, all the things I’ve learned about eating well and staying fit since then.  I’ll make sure to include the links to the best resources I know!

Please join me on this incredible journey and feel free to leave comments and questions!

Since I am new to blogging, please bear with me as I navigate the technical aspects of having my own blog!
