About Jeanette Logan

Jeanette Logan is the Vice-President of Living Ultimate Values™ LLC and is the founder of two of its divisions: Youthful Hearts (the Mind/Body/Spirit Fitness After 50 division) and JoyLuvs Company (the playfulness division).

Affectionately referred to as the Queen of Playfulness by her husband and friends, Jeanette feels blessed to be doing meaningful work that she thoroughly enjoys. She is very passionate about supporting others and herself in being healthy, energetic, capable, playful and aware in the world. She says, “No matter what our age or level of fitness there is always a way to exercise our minds, bodies, hearts and spirits to enhance and expand our joy for living.”

Many Hats

Jeanette wears many hats in her life, including: spiritual partner, fitness instructor, entrepreneur, youth leader, guided relaxation teacher, website designer/builder, bookkeeper, gardener, hiker, cat lover, life-long learner, practicer of yoga and meditation, event planner and expressive artist. One of her strengths and favorite things to do is blending existing elements together to create new, uplifting, nurturing experiences for herself and others. She also really loves to show people how to support and care for themselves when learning something new to ensure they have a joyfully positive and successful experience.

Background

Since 1993, through co-leadership and management, she has worked in partnership with her husband, Val Logan. Together they run Living Ultimate Values, LLC, their personal development business. In this creatively alive personal growth arena, Jeanette enjoys using movement, music, art, writing, storytelling, meditation, improvisation and play in supportive ways to facilitate empowerment and healing.

Val’s Contribution

Many of Living Ultimate Values™ workshops, classes and private sessions are designed around Val’s own innovative Transformational Coaching & Spiritual Counseling techniques. Using his skillful expertise in both disciplines, Val safely and gently guides people through their self-limiting beliefs and emotional blocks into greater joy and success. He coaches people on how to definitively build the strong energetic foundation that supports everything they want to bring into their lives.

Invaluable Experience

Having co-facilitated many support groups and workshops with Val, Jeanette has developed a keen sensitivity to the emotional issues that many people have regarding their body image and their own self-acceptance. In addition, she has worked through many of her own personal issues relating to food and body image. As a result, her strength and compassion inspire her students toward greater self-respect and balanced health. Jeanette’s experience and training with Val have been invaluable to her work as a fitness instructor and wellness educator.

Fitness Work

Jeanette has been involved in fitness and expressive arts for over 25 years and has worked with a variety of age groups. Her extensive experience in both arenas has helped her successfully motivate and inspire thousands of people to exercise. Since 1994 she has focused her fitness work on training age 50+ adults because she really loves to work with this special population! She teaches her Youthful Hearts (mind/body/spirit fitness after 50!) programs in Northern California’s beautiful Marin County.

Her Journey

Jeanette tapped into her genuine enthusiasm for participating in healthful practices when she began to honor and pursue her own true path in life, her soul’s calling. Throughout the years, Jeanette’s passionate curiosity about the many facets of natural wellness and the mind/body/spirit connection has led her to explore various types of fitness and healing. She believes we all have within us our own innate capacity for self-healing and increased vitality.

Acquired Wisdom

Jeanette says, “I encourage my class members to listen to their own body wisdom and to access their own inspired movement, not to just be mimicking me. When we move in ways that feel good to us then there is no stopping us! We truly begin to expand our sparkling aliveness and improve our health from the inside out. Instead of just dragging ourselves to the gym or to a class because we’re supposed to exercise, we look forward to it!” If you live in (or close by) Marin County of California and you’re age 50 or older, drop in for a group class. We would love to meet you! See Jeanette’s Youthful Hearts website for more info or call (707) 642-3626 to inquire.
