Hi There!
Welcome to my site!
My Name is
Denise Johnson! Thanks for taking the time to visit my site
and learn a little more about me and my Business.
First of all
I want to share with you a little about myself. I have been a
professional Massage Therapist for the Past 10 years with a
goal to own and operate a Health and
Wellness
Center
. This has changed my life! For the Best! I have had the
opportunity to assist people in promoting their health, rid
their bodies of stored up toxic waste, increase blood flow,
stimulate the nervous system, relieve muscle tension, relieve
headaches, increase energy, relieve stress, promote healing, but
most of all, to just plain feel better!! And what a gift that
has been.
I
started out with a group of Therapists in the
Atlanta
area volunteering for sporting events such as, The Atlanta
Ballet, the 1996 Centennial Olympic Games, The Georgia Games,
The Run for Leukemia, The Run for the American Heart
Association, The Peachtree Road Race, Gold’s Gym’s Body
Building Competitions, as well as others. Also, I have donated
my time at expo’s and trade shows, such as The Sport Show,
The Whole Life Expo, The Women’s Expo, Keiser Permanente
Health Expo and the Delta Airlines Health Fair, just to name a
few. I have worked with Chiropractors and Orthopedic Surgeons
have done many radio Q&A segments and have been on the Mid
Day Show with a local TV news broadcasting company on many
occasions. I also owned and operated my own private Muscular
Therapy practice in 3 states. I now work in a spa in one of
the top 10 Resorts in the world as well as run my own private
practice.
I
have had the opportunity to meet and massage some of the most
identifiable people in the world! Movie stars, musicians,
sports figures, athletes, millionaires, billionaires, top
business executives, sheiks, princes, and government
officials. I must say that I am grateful for having such
wonderful opportunities that the universe and God has granted
me. Life has been good!!!
I have been
on a path for personal and spiritual growth since my
father’s death in 1997.
It sure has
been an adventurous journey! He died at a very young age of
59, with no previous health problems. One day, I called him,
and he was out of breath like he just ran up a flight of
stairs. He said he just got up to answer the phone.
Well, he didn’t go to the doctor, and the next day he
passed out with low oxygen intake. They rushed him to the
hospital and ran all kinds of tests. I got a bad feeling in my
gut, so my sisters and I flew down on the next plane to be
with him. The doctors assured us that he would be fine, and
all the tests came back negative. So what seems to be the
problem, I asked. They couldn’t find anything wrong with
him. He called me into the room to massage his back, since
this is where he was felling the pain and air restrictions. I
soon massaged him, and found a mass in his kidney area. The
doctors did an ultra sound, and sure enough, there was a mass.
I told the doctors to get ready to put him on a ventilator,
since he was getting ready to go into respiratory arrest and
they would only have 6 minutes to tube him. Well, about 15
minutes later, he went into respiratory arrest, and stopped
breathing all together. The respiratory team got there too
late, and he flat lined. He died right there in front of me.
No known cause. They never got around to doing a biopsy on the
mass in his kidney. So we will never know why he died.
I will never forget that day as long as I live! That
was the first day, of the rest of my life!
Since then I
have devoted my time and energy to find answers to so many
unanswered questions. I wanted to know why some people that
are healthy get sick. Why some people who have lived life
destroying their bodies, live to a nice ripe age?
Why some people die young and some grow old and gray. I
wanted to know why some people are rich and some are poor? Why
some people have all the breaks yet some never get any. I
thought the only real way to answer these questions, was to
start with ME! So I was now on a journey of self exploration.
What makes me tick? What makes me do the things I do? Why have
I achieved so much yet achieved so little?
Why can’t I be doing the things I want to on a daily
basis? Why do I have to work so hard, and make so little? I
want to travel the earth! Explore new horizons! Climb more
mountains!
Sail more
oceans and Swim in more seas! I know there is a divine plan
however; I will need my own plan!! What will that look like?
How long will it take? What must I do to define this path
called LIFE?? Tis’ the beginning of my journey!
I have since
been exploring my personal growth and the growth of those who
have achieved their goals. I HAVE climbed mountains,
literally, hung off the side of a cliff, fended for myself in
the wilderness, alone, climbed poles and flew through the air.
Have done things, I never thought I was capable of doing. Fear
always stopped me. When
I thought I didn’t have anything left, I found the energy to
keep on going! So why have I not achieved my professional
goals? I realized that it was just my old programming. My
family was not very wealthy, and they had to work long hard
ours to provide for us. I was raised to believe that in order
to have the good things in life, you must work hard. And if
that means working 2-3 jobs, then so be it. That taught me how
to take care of myself, and work hard for what I have
achieved. I am
grateful for those words of wisdom however I know there is
more to life than working 60 hours a week just to pay my
bills.
One day, I
started to get back aches, and not being able to stand up
straight or get out of bed in the morning. The pain even used
to wake me up at night. My hands were falling asleep and it
took me a while to get going every day. I
have been working 65-70 hours a week, doing massage. That is
equivalent to shoveling snow all day, 13-14 hours a day for 5
days, every week. It was taking a toll on my body. I felt all
those old injuries from when I was a kid, just like my father
told me I would. I had headaches every day, and trying to work
was like climbing that mountain again, this time with an
injury! I went to
the doctors and had some X-rays taken, and he found out that
my spine is degenerating. I have 8-9 bone spurs, and my
vertebra is starting to fuse itself together. I will
eventually have to change careers. So NOW what am I supposed
to do? I began searching for my new path. I asked for guidance
from my inner soul, my life force, my higher power, my
universe, MY GOD!
I started
going to seminars, reading books, taking classes, whatever I
could learn about the body’s natural ability to heal itself.
I have come to the conclusion, that What You Think, You
Create! The laws of the universe are REAL!! What you put out,
you get back.
I realized
that if I believe I am going to feel good, I will. If I
believe my back is killing me, it will. I started with daily
affirmations, to heal my body, and clear my mind of all the
negativity. I started meditating, getting massages and
listening to my gut. It always seems to be right on target.
I
remember once, a few years ago, I was in a hurry and running
late to a clients house. I was stuck in traffic and getting
frustrated that I was going to be late. I said to myself,
“Oh Great! Now watch me get in an accident. They say most
accidents happen within 5 miles from home”. I was only about
4 miles away. Low and Behold, I crashed in the next
intersection!! Plowed right into someone that slammed on their
brakes in front of me. I hit him so hard I thought for sure he
was badly hurt. Thank God! Everyone was ok. And that we had
our seatbelts on. The vehicles had to be towed. They were not
drivable. I couldn’t get out of my car due to the door being
smashed in. I realized then, that I must have manifested this
thought, since not even a half a mile ago, I new this was
going to happen. That was an eye opener for me. I realized
then, that every time I think a negative thought, I must
replace it with a positive one! So
I began this process with my health!
I was still
trying to figure out what I was going to do to replace the
income I have with my massage practice. It was amazing that
with everything I read, or every seminar or class I took
despite of the content there was always the same message! Seek
multiple forms of income. Let your money work for you don’t
work for your money. I became aware of the serendipity that
was happening before me. I started listening to these clues. I
realized that there is a law of attraction going on. What I
thought or believed was happening. Good or bad!
I started using this technique in a conscious frame of
mind. Not brushing it off as mere coincidence. I started
noticing all kinds of things. And realizing that everything
happens for a reason! I had to be open and aware of the
possibilities and opportunities before me. Sometimes the
things we wish for come in undisclosed packages.
I have always
burned candles at home and in my practice. I was running low,
and needed to find some more candles. I always paid a little
extra for a better quality candle since my
Environment
was surrounded by quality clients. I went to a craft show, and
there was a woman selling Gourmet Soy / Veg candles. I stopped
by the booth, and thought to myself, Hey! I was just saying I
needed new quality candles. Poof! There they were.
I smelled them as I was approaching. I stood there for
about 20 minutes trying to decide which scents to buy. I never
heard of this brand before, so I decided to give them a try.
I finally
came to a decision and purchased 2-16 oz jars. At first I
thought they were a little pricey, until I got home and burned
them. OH MY GOSH!! They smelled up my whole house!
Every time
someone came over, they commented on how nice my home smelt. I
had to share with them my new find! I couldn’t believe how
they burned so evenly. And no BLACK MESS!! I started thinking
about the health aspect of these clean burning natural
alternative candles, and how wonderful it would be if all my
massage therapist friends and colleagues burned these too. We
work in such a small confined area, that we breathe these
things all day, every day. Imagine what it was doing to our
bodies! I started thinking about my health issues and wondered
if this had an impact on my body and it’s toxicity. Not too
mention, It sure would be nice if I didn’t have to wipe down
the walls from all the black soot. I burnt those candles down
to the end, and there was no wasted wax build up on the jar
and STILL no black mess on the jars. And they still smelt
great!! I took the wax out of the jar, and put it in one of
those small crock simmer pots. WOW! The Darn thing was still
giving off a strong powerful scent! I couldn’t believe it. I
had to have more!!! I was going to buy them in Bulk, so I can
have them on hand, in case I couldn’t find her again.
I called the
number on the bottom of the jar, the girl I bought it from at
the craft show. Her number was disconnected, and her e-mails
were coming back. I tried to get on her web site, and it
bounced me directly to the company. I thought this was
strange, however, I believe that everything happens for a
reason right? So I decided to research the company! Spoke to
the CEO and decided I needed to see what kind of results I can
find on line about the products. Of course there were
testimonials, team spirit, and loads of information. I just
wanted to buy candles! What in the world is happening? I
decided to get in touch with one of the distributors whose web
site I looked at. She got back to me right away! Not only to
chat, but to answer all the questions I had. She told me how I
can become a candle of the month member, and that would
entitle me to buy wholesale and sell retail! I was not looking
to go into business, just buy candles. Then I started thinking
about all the people I can share this wonderful new product
with. Not only can I buy wholesale, but I can sell them to
other massage therapist, and get mine for FREE!! What a
deal!!! I started thinking about those signs I was asking for
from my higher power. Was this the answer I was looking for?
Can I actually make money selling candles and not work so hard
as a massage therapist for the rest of my life?
I was on my
way to one of those spiritual seminar retreats with a friend
of mine. I couldn’t stop thinking about the candle business.
I was talking to her about it, and while we were driving, I
was asking her opinion on what she thought, and as she was
talking, on the radio dial, which was in the off position, the
word “CANDLE” was displayed in bright light!! The darn
thing was OFF!! We both looked at it and said, “HOW
WEIRD!”
We blew it
off as a coincidence. A few seconds later, I looked down and
it was gone! I
couldn’t stop thinking about it for 3 days! One night, on
our way back to the hotel, we were talking about it again, and
LOW AND BEHOLD!’
There is was
AGAIN!!! “CANDLE” On the radio dial!! I thought. Is this
my sign? Am I supposed to be in the candle business? Is this
my opportunity I was seeking? Who would have thought? I sure
never thought about going into the candle business, however,
here it was, clear as day! IN BRIGHT LIGHTS NO LESS!!!
I got back
from my retreat and decided that this was what I am supposed
to do. I can’t defy fate!
I signed up
as a candle of the month member and bought the fast start
package which would give me all the needed materials to get
started. My friends and coworkers could see the excitement in
my demeanor. I got my kit in the mail, and started doing all
the things the company and team suggested I do. I figured, if
they can do it, SO CAN I!!
I brought my
scent sample pack to work, set it on the table with some order
forms I printed on my computer, and left to go do a massage.
When I got back, I had 2 dozen candles SOLD!!! I wasn’t even
there to tell them about the products. They smelled the
samples, and they were sold! As I was! I
couldn’t believe my eyes!! How easy was that? I thought to
myself. I even gave out brochures in the elevator at work and
one woman decided to order Christmas gifts for all her
employees! I have been on fire ever since!! I followed my
gut!! I asked and I received!
It was true!!
The laws of attraction were REAL!! What you think you
manifest!! I was so excited I couldn’t wait to buy all kinds
of inventory, banners, car magnets, brochures! Anything that
would help me on my quest to success!! I started reading all
the posts, and got on the team calls, went to the Fall Fling
conference. I wanted to learn all there was to learn about how
to be successful! Bought more books, got my own personal web
site up so I can start telling the world about what I have
found! The wonderment of it ALL!
I have had an
open house, and shared these wonderful products with the
people I know. I now have repeat orders and people are telling
their friends and they are telling their friends and orders
keep coming in! I set up a small display in my home so every
time someone comes over they want to smell all the new scents
I got! They always leave with one or two new candles. I am now
making gift baskets and placing BIG orders for people who are
giving these candles and body products as gifts to their
employees and clients for Christmas! OH MY GOSH!! It is
exploding!! I even have people calling me from out of state
who have heard about me and my wonderful new Soy/Veg candles
and body products! I may just be able to cut back on all this
physical work and find peace in my heart and ease in my body!
Work part time for full time pay! Have more time to enjoy my
life, and share it with my loved ones instead of working my
life away! I may
just be able to climb those mountains, sail those seas and
swim in the oceans of the world! Maybe
this IS the answer! I BELIEVE IT IS!!!
