When did you realize you held a passion for wellness?

I think it would have been as a very young child starting with playing with my nursing set. I was taking everyone’s blood pressure then, starting with my dolls (LOL), but the true realization came when I was a teenager in High School, and I became very particular about my physical appearance and daily healthy routine, especially my nutrition I made a bet with my classmate and won I told them I was no longer interested in eating meat and I would stop They “dared me,” telling me I couldn’t I told them to watch me; I became a Lacto-Vegetarian and fasted weekly, and that began in earnest my healthy lifestyle. Also, Food Nutrition was one of my favorite classes. I made history on our island as the first and only student in my year to pass our Food and Nutrition (CXC) regional exams I later went on to a national college and became active in our weekly college radio program hosting the nutrition segment and also writing nutrition articles for our college magazine My wellness career started off well before I started in our workforce

Monday was chosen because research has shown on this day, people are most responsive to positive changes in their lifestyle. My company, in 2016, realizing the importance of how communities can help build and sustain great healthy practices, signed a Meatless Monday Pledge they were offering back then and never looked back I introduced it to the public schools I was connected to I encouraged the general public in a local radio program I co-hosted, Let’s Talk Health, and to my audience on social media I shared flyers, did cooking videos, shared meatless recipes, and I continued to host many healthy Meatless Monday Challenges.

I use the MeatlessMonday Campaigns as a fun, simple way of introducing people to take charge of their health while encouraging their family members, colleagues, and friends to engage in a healthier lifestyle It also served as an amazing way to try new tasty, healthy dishes Meatless Monday has helped our online and offline community to begin sustainable and healthy nutrition lifestyle, including our “A Taste of African Heritage,” continuing to teach people the healthy habits in their culture, reducing and helping heal chronic preventable diseases like diabetics, obesity, hypertension, kidney and heart diseases.

Outside of wellness and business, who is RevJoslyn Farray Pierre in eight words?

What is your favorite healthy meal?

My favorite healthy meal is Egg-Plant Au-gratin It was one of the very first cooking videos I shared with my Meatless Monday audience. A dish made with eggplant, tomatoes, peppers, onions, vegetarian cheese, and other herbs and flavorings.

I had the pleasure of participating in Intuitive Well-being

Meatless Monday Challenge with you this year. Please tell the readers about Meatless Monday and what inspired you to start the initiative?

I am so happy you brought this up This gets me all excited (LOL) It has been such a delight completing this challenge with your group. Meatless Monday is a Global Campaign started in 2003 by Sid Lerner in association with the John Hopkin Center for a livable future. Its history is linked to the conservation campaign in World War 1, and it is supported by millions worldwide, including Oprah Winfrey and other famous public figures

This initiative encourages people to skip meat once a week every Monday to reduce the incidence of chronic preventable diseases, prevent precious land and water resources, and fight climate change

Health and wellness is an essential aspect of life. What advice would you give to those who are trying to maintain a healthy lifestyle?

Start small and stay consistent with a simple routine Develop both a morning and nighttime routine It could be very simple, starting with a one-stretch routine, taking at least 3 deep breaths, drinking a glass of water, and repeating one sentence of gratitude both morning and evening. Then keep building on that. I also suggest being in nature as much as possible and learning to listen to your body’s natural rhythm and intuition. Drink water throughout your day; include raw fruits and veggies daily Learn about the different types of meditation and make it a part of your routine

Also, include journaling as a healthy practice, whether it is to brain dump to get rid of the clutter on your mind or to set intentions to help you reach your life goals or dreams
