Making changes in your life? Check out this book!
I don't know anyone who isn't considering changing their bodies or habits as we become more concious of our behaviors and actions.A great book, although geared towards women men would find interesting thoughts as well, is "Fit from Within; 101 Simple Secrets to Change Your Body and Your Life-Starting Today and Lasting Forever" by Victoria Moran. I know some of you have experienced this great book already, and I reccomend that everyone check it out. It is available at the library and there are numerous copies available on Half.com.
The book is formatted similar to a daily meditation book with several topics pertaining to health and wellness and addresses, self-image, spirituality, healthy eating and drinking (including soda and coffee!), and relationships. I particularily love the way she addresses self-acceptance as seeing ourselves as we truely are, and that we are worth living a healthy lifestyle, not ignoring harmful habits.Always room to grow.... check it out.

Tips for 2009
I recieved this from a very good friend today and wanted to share it:
40 Tips for Better Life - 2009
1. Take a 10-30 minute walk every day. And while you walk, smile. It is the ultimate anti-depressant.
2. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day.
3. Buy a DVR and tape your late night shows and get more sleep.
4. When you wake up in the morning complete the following statement, My purpose is to __________ today.
5. Live with the 3 E's -- Energy, Enthusiasm, and Empathy.
6. Play more games and read more books than you did in 2008.
7. Make time to practice meditation, and prayer. They provide us with daily fuel for our busy lives.
8. Spend time with people over the age of 70 and under the age of 6.9. Dream more while you are awake.10. Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less food that is manufactured in plants.
11. Drink green tea and plenty of water. Eat blueberries, wild Alaskan salmon, broccoli, almonds and walnuts.
12. Try to make at least three people smile each day.
13. Clear clutter from your house, your car, your desk and let new and flowing energy into your life.
14. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip, OR issues of the past, negative thoughts or things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment.
15. Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn. Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime.
16. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a college kid with a maxed out charge card.

21. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
22. Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present.
23. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
24. No one is in charge of your happiness except you.

26. Forgive everyone for everything.
27. What other people think of you is none of your business.
28. REMEMBER GOD (or the universe depending on your belief) heals everything.
29. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.
30. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch.3
1. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.
32. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
33. The best is yet to come.
34. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.

Welcome to the New Year!
Welcome to 2009 and all the hope and promise it holds! Lets resolve to ditch the idea of resolutions and make this year the one where we turn down the volume on the "shoulds" and the "goods" and "bads" and turn up the volume on our inner voices and guidance. As your trainer I hope to provide a community that supports your well-being and accepts you for who and where you are. There are lots of fun changes on the table so check back often for training and community building opportunities.
