Apparently, I’m still feeling the motivation from my training session yesterday—I ate extra well today, did two workouts, and went in the infrared sauna. I weighed-in too, and Joe was nice enough to take my “before” pics. He laughed at me for all of this, by the way, but he was supportive. I like how …

First thing’s first… I made donut holes that had no sugar added, and no grains. And they actually turned out amazingly well. I won’t mention the donut recipe Matthew and I tried a few weeks ago that was disgusting. We made a huge mess, and were completely disappointed. Hey, I mean, it happens sometimes. Shortly …

Remember the old days when TVs didn’t have remotes? I remember when we first got a cable box that sat on top of the TV–it had a dial, and you had to get up to change it. I’m not sure when remotes appeared, but I sure don’t know anyone without one now! How torturous would …

I really needed this today: And This: And This: Just kidding, I didn’t have that last one. But I could go for one right now. I went to the gym early this morning, after an hour or so of work. Then I met a friend at a hot yoga class and we went to Starbucks …
Today was fantastic! Well, the greatness actually started last night—Matthew got here a little after 8pm, and we had a slumber party in the living room. He was a good sport and watched Little House on the Prairie with me, and then we chatted and went to sleep (well, he did…I was wide awake—since I …

I had a couple days last week when I was feeling wishy washy about my career. I do that occasionally—I get really sure and motivated with an idea, and then I wake up one day laughing at myself. Why did I think that was a good idea? It will never work. I do, however, think …
I love it when I read a quote and it really clicks with me (or when it makes something really clear that I should have been aware of already). Similar to last week, I’ve been finding a theme in my work over the past few days. Being a wellness coach is an interesting job because …
Today was one of those eat-what’s-in-the-house days. I dug around a bit, and came up with these: I worked early, went to the gym…and then I really needed to eat lunch (at 10:45 this morning). Sweet Onion Sliders with Roasted Tomatoes and Blue Cheese For the burgers: I used a mixture of ground bison …

Today, I wellness coached all morning (it was a great morning of talking to people, by the way! Lots of awesome blood pressure readings, good health updates, and positive attitudes/conversations). Next, I came home and worked some more…and after all that, I needed a break before I go to meet another client tonight. So, naturally, …

Last night, I attended a benefit workshop called Pursuit of Happiness with Kurt Johnsen. He’s the founder of American Power Yoga, and has done a lot of work/learning in things like energy balance, tai chi, kung fu…and even astral travel (which sounds wonderful to me!). I enjoyed the two-hour talk very much, and identified with …
