Keep It Tight Sisters is a multi-faceted self-care and wellness brand that helps women to love their bodies, foster a nourishing relationship with food, and achieve their health and wellness goals. 

It was created especially for you. Keep It Tight Sisters will help you if you want to lose a few pounds, eat better, sleep better, move more, manage stress, or just live your best life.

The Importance of Keep It Tight Sisters

There is a health crisis in our community.  It has been with us for so long that it seems almost normal. This health crisis is caused primarily by unhealthy eating, inadequate physical activity, and inadequate coping with stress and the journey of living.

The extra meat on our bones, long hours of work, caring for our families, and advocating for our communities have put us at risk for anxiety, depression, diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, and some cancers.

What Does It Mean to “Keep It Tight?”

“Keep It Tight” is a euphemism for  “take care of yourself” but with a little more oomph!

Keep It Tight Sisters will help you set SMART goals, show you how to achieve them, and offer you tools and tricks to help you achieve your health and wellness goals.  Additionally, we show you why food is the best medicine and how to use natural remedies to complement your health practices.

Our Mantra: Eat. Move. Breathe.

Our mantra is “Eat. Move. Breathe.”

Eat Right and Keep It Tight

Keep It Tight Sisters focuses on the importance of helping women to have a nourishing relationship with food. So, we encourage you to eat foods that are nourishing and healing.  And, that means that you need to intentionally choose foods that are wholesome, natural, minimally processed, and locally sourced. 

We also encourage you to achieve and maintain a healthy weight. However, we also emphasize that while food nourishes, heals, and comforts us, it cannot feed an empty heart and make the loneliness go away.

Move Often to Keep It Tight

Your body was made to move. So, we encourage you to move your body and your mind every day in some way.  And, that also means moving away from unhealthy relationships, and moving towards people who love you, like you, respect you, make you laugh, encourage you, and hold you accountable to living your life to the fullest. 

Likewise, embrace books, films, and other creative outlets that feed your mind, calm your spirit, and spur you to action.

Breathe In Calmness and Peace And Breathe Out Stress

Many of our posts focus on self-care and wellness. Do not take your breathing for granted. We encourage you to breathe deeply and slowly for a few minutes when you are stressed, afraid, and tempted to treat yourself in an unloving way. So, we often devalue and disrespect ourselves when we eat too much, drink too much, spend too much money, work too much, and watch too much TV.  Breath is important to live. So take moments during the day to pause, breathe, and save your life.
