About Me
DR. MARIA CRISTINA EdD SHEEHAN HEALTH AND WELLNESS LLC “I help high performing executive achieve their fitness goals for a more energized life.� I grew up with two loving parents that had two very different approaches to their health. My dad was super fit. He stayed in great condition into his 90s. He participated in the senior Olympics in his 80s and taught me to play racquet ball in his 70s and played his last game of tennis on his 89th birthday. My mom was just the opposite, overweight most of her life, and I never saw her exercise. Her health took an early dive decades before her death. Besides exercise my parents had different approaches to nutrition. Watching those two-contrasting health styles showed me that we can experience aging quite differently. There were valuable lessons I should have learned. But as the decades passed it was easy for me to get caught up in the demands of a fast-paced life balancing family and my work as a CEO. As time passed the toll it had taken on my level of fitness seemed irreversible. Gone was the body of decades ago and all the things we believe to be true about aging began to take hold. Things such as fatigue, weight gain, loss of sleep, diminishing self-esteem and more. I had a decision to make of the path
I would choose, and I decided to make a commitment to my health as I retired at age 69. I began researching how I might live a fit life immediately as well as in the decades ahead. I started strength training and became a trainer and a certified health coach and fitness consultant. I created the AgeWell Ageless Life System to help women gain back their strength, energy, and bodies they never thought possible. Today at 74 I live in a fitness competitor’s body I never thought was possible. I love traveling the world and having new experiences like playing in the Bali waterfalls, unafraid to wear a bikini cover up free. I have great sleep, energy to spare and soaring self-esteem. I believe there is no ceiling on our level of fitness. It is possible to turn back the clock with the right plan in place. I am committed to helping women embrace the best path to live life at its healthiest best. Caring for our health is priority number. We have a choice, which will it be?
Fitness “A FIT BODY IS NOT THE SOLE PURVIEW OF THE YOUNG. IT IS AVAILABLE TO ANYONE WITH THE DESIRE TO MAKE CONSISTENT CHANGES. WE HAVE CONTROL TO AGE AS WE WISH.”
“GAINING STRENGTH AND MUSCLE AFTER 50 IS COMPLETELY DOABLE BY TAKING SMALL CONSISTENT STEPS AND PRACTICING THE CORRECT EXERCISES.”
Nutrition “THERE IS A SCIENCE TO EATING AND IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH DIETING OR DEPRIVATION. IT REVOLVES AROUND PREPARATION AND DETERMINATION. I HAVE LEARNED PREPARATION IS KEY TO GIVING OUR BODIES WHAT THEY REALLY NEED.”
“DEPRIVATION IS NOT PART OF GOOD NUTRTION. A SWEET TREAT CAN BE ENJOYED MADE WITH ALL NATURAL INGREDIENTS.”
Mindfulness
“THE BEST WAY TO ENJOY LIFE IS AT YOUR HEALTHIEST BEST AND THE JOURNEY TO THE BEST LIFE CAN BEGIN AT ANY AGE.”
Lifestyle “THE LIFESTYLE THAT WE WANT AND THE FITNESS WE HAVE ARE INSEPARABLE.”
