Slow Down By Choice Or Lay Down By Force
Thank you for stopping by and supporting me on the launch of my book. It means so much to me to have the support of my family, friends, and supporters. This book has been a testimony of love and commitment to all that I represent and try to share with others on how to create wholistic balance in their lives.
It requires an unwavering commitment to convince yourself that it is in the best interest of everyone if you show up in the world your best, whole, balanced self!

Our society tells us that if we are not constantly moving, we are not being productive. Yet often the most productive choice we can make is the choice to slow down—before our hectic lifestyle catches up and forces us to focus on our own self-care as outlined in personal testimonies in the book.
In Slow Down by “Choice” or Lay Down by “Force”: 7 Keys to (Re)Store Wholistic Balance in Your Life, Trina Pitts-Khalfani outlines the seven steps that lead to a more balanced, healthy life.
While contemporary science only begins to recognize that the health of the mind can shape the health of the body, we can and should embrace this truth whole-heartedly. Speaking from over twenty years of experience in health promotion and disease prevention, Khalfani shows us how we can return to the tried-and-true natural health practices that other cultures have been using for thousands of years in order to heal the Mind, Body, and Spirit
(RE)awaking
Have you ever felt your heart race so fast where it woke you up abruptly out of a deep sleep to catch your breath? And the more you tried to breathe, the faster your heart continued to beat until you felt as if it was going to jump out of your chest and you were going to pass out? Which then starts a cycle of sleepless nights (insomnia), fatigue, foggy thinking, and irritability during the day due to sleepless anxiety-filled nights.
The subtle “Yellow” warning lights to Slow Down that I ignored turned to a glaring loud “Red” stoplight that caught my full attention during the busiest time of my life. There was nothing I could do but “Surrender” to the process of creating a more balanced life.

As I write this book, Slow Down by “Choice” or Lay Down by “Force” started as my personal journey and the journey of my clients back to wholeness and balance by being “Forced” to “Slow Down” in various periods of our individual lives. And then entered 2020 the year of COVID-19 (Coronavirus) and a universal slow down (Quarantine) on Earth. 2020 is also in Numerology (the science of numbers), a 4 year (2+0+2+0) which represents upheaval, hard work, restriction and building new foundations/ systems after dismantling outdated systems. How timely and prophetic.
This year’s changes and challenges which we have never experienced in our generation, still should not come as a total surprise if we think deeply on the theme of this writing; we have had signs for many years personally and universally to “Slow Down” by choice and have ultimately some say unexpectantly (I don’t believe in accidents just spirits way of getting our attention) been “Forced” to through a Universal Quarantine to combat the spread of the Coronavirus (Covid-19).
It has been a devasting and humbling experience in every country on the planet and has affected all our lives. So, what lessons have we learned from this pandemic and “Forced” quarantine? ~ Enjoy the book!
