Why the change to Gracious Health?

GIGACalisthenics is hard to spell! I wanted to make it easier for you and I wanted it to be more approachable for all people so Gracious Health was born!

Jessica's Journey

Picture
Jessica used to think that food is what sustained her. The biggest change in this mindset happened after she did her first fast. Jessica realized the power that God has and that he is the source of her joy, peace and love. During her Christian walk, she began to uncover her unhealthy mindsets regarding food and body image. She used to  compare and think that looking a certain way was important to obtain her goals. She used to turn to food for comfort, followed by feelings of guilt and shame. She began the long journey to break free from a destructive relationship with food and body image. Overcoming her destructive, unhealthy mindset with God has lead to an amazing new life full of joy. Now Jessica is passionate about partnering with women to allow others to break free from destructive mindsets and find security in their identity in Christ.
