Did you know: You get more bang for your buck with strength training? You'll continue to burn calories for the entire day after completing a strength training workout!(after cardio, the calories stop burning quickly after the workout stops)! And the more muscle you build, the more daily calories you'll burn-just sitting on the couch! Strength training makes you stronger, fitter, body balanced, and it protects your bones!
Massage & Bodywork
Research continues to show the ENORMOUS benefits of massage:
To decrease anxiety, increase energy/reduce fatigue, alleviate pain & increase range of motion, enhance immunity, promote tissue regeneration, reduce spasms & cramping, stress management... just to name few! Whether you're looking to relax with Swedish massage, work out some knots with deep tissue/trigger point massage, or relieve migraine pain with myofascial release... I've got you covered!
The mounting evidence showing a strong connection between gut health and brain health, along with what we already knew about food fueling our bodies, makes a strong argument against anything being more important for our body's overall health than nutrition! I offer classes on nutrition tips and healthy habits, as well as one on one coaching sessions. You can also click here to check out my blog! Find posts on healthy stuff: family friendly menus & meal prep, how to get started with transitioning to a whole food lifestyle- and why it's so important, homemade supplements, a breakdown on different "diets", favorite recipes... and more!
There's no doubt that exercise is good for us! From making us happier to helping us live longer, regular exercise is key to living a healthy balanced life! Each morning, I start my day with "sunshine time" I schedule it in, like the important meeting (with nature & me) that it is! It's a quick 20-30 minutes of cardio outside. The fresh air, sunshine, and alone time is invigorating and sets the tone for the rest of my day. Give it a try! In addition to sunshine time, I like to commit 30 minutes of muscle work on most days. My workouts vary from strength & conditioning to yoga & focused stretching. Check out some of my favorite exercises, as well as some workouts that I've put together... or book a session with me in person!

ABOUT ME
Amanda Schmitz
Hi, thanks for stopping by! I' m glad you're here! Look around, you'll find links to some of my favorite workouts, menus, favorite recipes, and other fun health stuff! I love spending time out in nature and enjoy almost any activity that involves sunshine and moving my body! I live in central Minnesota with my husband and 2 young children. I spend most of my time exploring life with them! I completed my degree focused on community health from St. Cloud State University, and went on to graduate from Sister Rosalind Gefre's 800 hour massage program. I enjoyed working in the professional wellness clinic and later became an instructor for the school. I've been practicing professional massage for the past 12 years, while working in the fitness industry as well! I hold current specialty certifications in nutrition, personal training, group fitness and health/Lifestyle coaching! I'm on a mission to help others with resetting their defaults to crave self-care, nutritious foods and a healthy active lifestyle! Welcoming Wellness is all about promoting self-through learning and feeling good with education, nutrition and activity, to taking care of ourselves emotionally & physically using bodywork. I hope you'll enjoy the information and contact me with questions or scheduling!
