Welcome to my "Beauty on the Inside" flickr page. I hope you will visit my website www.BeautyontheInside.com. I created the site to provide a resource for health and wellness. I believe that beauty is a product of what happens in your internal world. Even if you are born with "perfect" features, lovely skin and healthy genes, it is difficult to sustain that beauty without proper nutrition (both on the inside and outside) as well as nourishment for your mind and spirit. Beauty is a combination of these things.

I began my passion with health and wellness as a way to manage my own personal health challenges. Formally prone to constant sickness and digestive problems, including acid reflux and gallbladder disease, I turned to nutrition and supplementation when conventional medicine did not seem to work. Since changing my diet and adding personalized nutritional supplements to my daily routine, I have not been sick in over three years. Additionally, I have been able to keep from having my galbladder surgically removed, when at one time it seemed to be the only option I was being given by health professionals. Now, I have no pain at all, and I still have my galbladder.*

At the same time I have always been fascinated by the resiliency and power of the mind and how much it impacts not only your body, but every aspect of your life. I believe that thoughts and words have the power to shape the way your life unfolds around you. As Ralph Waldo Emerson said, "You become what you think about all day long."

I hope the information and resources contained on my site will help you on your journey towards health and beauty from the inside out. Please visit my site and feel free to post your thoughts, suggestions or experiences on the forum page, or send me an email from the contact page. I would love to hear from you.

Best,

Candy
