Hitting the Wall (when it’s a struggle)

My last post was about some of the hip exercises I did prior to having hip surgery.  Today marks 4 weeks post surgery so I want to follow up a little today.  First of all, let me say I am doing great.  I was strong going into the surgery and I think that was a huge factor and feel as if I am moving … Read more about Hitting the Wall (when it’s a struggle)

Start Small in the New Year

Here we are in 2021.  I am intentionally late to the New Year posting party.  I didn't want to bombard your inbox with another post about the New Year, making resolutions, and blasting our past year.  I broke up with making Resolutions a few years ago.  Resolutions get a bad rap, and rightly so.  To … Read more about Start Small in the New Year

Understanding AND Protecting Your JOY

  If you know anything about me you know I am a huge proponent of JOY.  I learned long ago that I just couldn't let things "steal my joy".  I said that so often that now my sons repeat it back to me.  I see and experience Joy as  a wonderful, intriguing and encompassing state of being.  I … Read more about Understanding AND Protecting Your JOY

Now What?

    Bear with me here.  This is not a health and wellness post which is what I normally post here.  So if you aren't up for a little sappy I don't want to take up your space and I'd love you to come back another day. A couple of days ago I closed the door behind me as I came … Read more about Now What?

No More Broken Talk, Please

I was working out the other morning and the Kelly Clarkson song "Broken and Beautiful" began playing.  Can I tell you how much that song got under my skin?  Obviously enough that I stewed on it, pulled out a legal pad and began putting my thoughts on paper.  Yep.  I'm still one of the dinosaurs that … Read more about No More Broken Talk, Please
