Thought for the month

Growing up, like everyone else, I had thoughts/ideas on where I imagined I would be at this point in my life. Adulthood. I planned every little step and found that the steps I didn't plan where the ones I enjoyed the most or ended up being the most fitting. To this day, whether it is society, my teenage version of myself or things I hear from others-there is that small part of me that ponders "Is this where I should be right now?...Should I be in a different place? What would so-and-so think of where I was in my life at this moment"...

Well enough is enough. As I ponder this thought for myself, I share it with you too-to also ponder. I would like to take those thoughts and kick them into space...RELEASE of expectations, RELEASE of limitations, RELEASE of confinement, RELEASE of judgement, RELEASE of ego...release.

Because honestly...who cares? There's no tally at the end, or scorekeeper if you will, telling you what you missed or didn't get done. Everyone has their own journey.

This is so true. So whether you think you are where you need to be in your life at this exact moment in time, or not...Just BE.

Be your best version of yourself, because NO one else can be you.

Live for the experience and the growth you can achieve. Ego is one of the most dangerous things out there...It can start wars.

So let it go. Breathe...and release! Enjoy :)

Howdy all!

I hope all is prosperous. Here is some new info re: my blog.

My blog will now be a monthly blog with fitness, wellness and success tips. I hope to continue bringing you new ideas to incorporate into your daily routines. I am also working on a Utube site so that you can "see" some of the exercises I recommend trying to find the best version of yourself!

Listen to your gut.

The satisfaction that comes from knowing you pushed yourself to do something challenging, scary and invigorating is immeasurable. When your gut tells you that something is too difficult or beyond your realm of capability, this is when you must break through your comfort zone and make it your reality. -Lesa G. Williams

"With L-O-V-E".

Keep your words sweet, in case you need to swallow them.

Empathy keeps your heart open.

Treat everyone as though they were family...and see how your perspective changes.

"Fit-Ful Friday" for 1/22/10

Technique is EXTREMELY important!

HOW you workout is just as important as WHAT type of workout you do!

I know-It sounds like a riddle.

Think of it this way: You can do a workout and not see results because your body is not in the correct alignment, you are not pushing hard enough, shying away from the burn or working out too infrequently.

If you apply great technique, workout consistently and embrace the burn (cardio and muscle strength work) you will see results!

Also, as students, be aware of your instructor's experience and knowledge. There are many glorified teachers out there who teach ONLY because it is their workout for the day! WRONG!

Do your research! Make sure your teacher has vast experience, knowledge and passion for their craft of fitness, health, yoga or dance. It should be something they live---not just a hobby.

May the force be with you!

"Fit-Ful Friday" for 1/15/10

SUPPORT:

There is something to be said about the people around you and the support we give and receive from each other.

You are your number one fan (and if that doesn't apply today-make it apply).

Remember, it takes support to give support. Share this feeling with your family and friends.

People who feel supported perform better in all areas of life.

Many times, we find we are very busy, but you must make time for what you love.

Good luck!
