Welcome to Life Lon Wellness
Welcome to LifeLonWellness. Thank you so much stopping in. I'm Alannah (Lon for short) Staver, and I'm a mystical girl living in a military world. By that, I mean I'm a crystal-carrying spiritual wandress by moonlight and a Public Affairs Officer in the U.S. Air Force by day.
Visiting Sedona, Arizona was one of the most moving spiritual experiences I've ever had. This is the Chapel of the Holly Cross, if ever in AZ. . . Sedona is a MUST!
Here I am standing in front of an F-16 engine in a facility that's designed to test the functionality of aircraft engines. Pretty average day on the job.
I was born and raised in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania and left home when I joined the Air Force in 2009. It's been a whirlwind adventure ever since and I'm currently soaking up the southern sunshine in beautiful South Carolina where I've lived for the last year and a half. I earned my Bachelor's degree in English in 2014 from the United State Air Force Academy and my Master's degree in Strategic Communications in 2017 from Liberty University.
I write and communicate for the Air Force for a living and live the life of a 9 to 5 working-woman who juggles the stressors of successfully starting a career, leading an office, maintaining a social life, squeezing in a workout (yoga in my living room counts), and keeping in touch with family and friends. For me, this balancing act is what it’s all about. Coming to terms with the reality that my life is its very own traveling circus (which is totally OK!) while making room to live a holistic, intentional lifestyle is my salt of the Earth. It takes focus and practice and sometimes saying "no," but this balance is what I know keeps me sane and in the long-run will help me live a long life of wellness.
I'm a self-care and holistic health junkie!
I jump at the chance to travel and sweat for my sanity. I judge the quality of my day by the people I meet and the foods I eat. I make time for face masks and bubble baths, grow a garden, love to dance and take every opportunity to put love and light into this world.
I hope, LifeLonWellness will be a source of inspiration that helps you set aside some me-time and follow your wildest dreams. I’m still in the midst of deciding which of my dreams I’ll chase first, so here you’ll find everything from fitness and nutrition to spiritual wellness and travel. I hope this blog inspires you to love yourself a little harder and this Universe around us too.
My deepest gratitude goes out to you for taking the time to join me on this journey.
Love, Light & the Highest Vibes,
Lon
