Catching the wave

I took this picture of the forest up near Bellevue, Co (added the waves later) amazing up there.

So the earlier this morning I was eating a red plum & took a few bites just had to take a pic of the ♥ to share:) It's wonderful to take the time notice small details...and maybe it'll bring a smile to that lovely face yours.

BE BOLD

Let's hit today like this :)
"Whatever you can do or dream YOU CAN, Begin it, Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it."- Wolfgang/Goethe

Lets start the week right

 

Some days we need an extra push get ourselves on track

 Lets start the week right by

•  Give your body good fuel- Eat Colorful, avoid processed food, & refined Sugars

• Stay Hydrated-Make sure to being drinking plenty of H2O (1/2 your body weight in oz). "Water makes up nearly 85 percent of our brain, about 80 percent of our blood and about 70 percent of lean muscle..dehydration causes people to be less able to perform at their peak and its presence sets people up for weight gain, joint and muscle pain, fuzzy thinking, disease, and fatigue.  Dehydration can cause irritability, anxiety, depression, food cravings, and allergies. Emergency thirst signals include feeling sick upon rising in the morning, heartburn, migraines, angina, joint pain, back pain, colitis pain, fibromyalgic pain, constipation, late-onset diabetes, and hypertension."...read more Carry a H20 bottle everywhere you go-We love convenience -Have a glass before each meal-Go to bed with a glass on a table next you so its the first thing you have in the morning.  It will give you more energy, strengthen your immune system, & help you loose weight. 

• Exercise-Take time to exercise 3x this week for @ least 45minutes-->put it in your schedule like an a appointment. ITS YOU TIME :)

• Stretch that tension out-When you first wake up-little breaks @ work- before bed TAKE the TIME for some simple neck stretches this week. Also, if you're pretty active invest in a foam roller. Roll out some tension in low back &  adhesions along IT Band (side of leg). THESE DO MAKE A DIFFERENCE

• Get a massage- Don't let so much time go by this time- when you know for a fact there're areas that need help. Sometimes we can only do so much stretching...its okay task for help that's why I'm here!  Set up a Massage session.

Seems whenever we get busy most of these good habits can be written off.

Lets zero in & get back on track

Lets find your Trinity Balance

Sometimes blessings come after the storm

               I took this picture after the rain storm Tuesday. I had one of those gut feelings we were going to be blessed as soon I as I saw that double rainbow. Sure enough, later that day I found out my best friend had gone into labor & later that evening had her baby. Going into labor 3weeks early due to other complications is no easy task. But, the little bundle of joy is quite the blessing!  New life is a incredible gift to hold. I'm so thankful.

Cliffs of Moher: In the studio steps of the Painting

 Step 1:Sky

Step 2: Landscape & Shadows

 Step 3: Water....Not Quite finished need to work out some details

 In 2005, I was fortunate enough to see this beautiful place in person! The Cliffs of Moher in Galway  is breath taking and is truly one of my favorite places I've been...Someday I will return:)

The Links Matter

What's holding you back?
              ..Issues may bring you down? Remember it has no control over you. Emotions/sickness/people/work stress can really hang on us. TAKE CONTROL! First acknowledge it is an issue. Do what you can in the moment---develop a plan on how to handle it--->Keep it outside your invisible force field. If you carry it everywhere/talk about it/be angry/fearful/upset-->it cause extra unnecessary stress on your body. Stress causes our bodies to be more susceptible to diseases, allergies,  and illness.
      Sooo... take a breathe in.....and out.....Let it go..... I'm not saying to forget your problems, they'll still be there, but you will no longer carry them throughout the day. You'll notice overall more balance with more focus, be happier, increased energy, and certainly more pleasant to be around :)

    
So get ready to pump those legs & swing higher!
       
       Get ready to be inspired and create more links
