 Yup, those are hand weights. 

Yup, they are in my kitchen. 

Yup, on purpose. 

I have been wanting to get back into a weight program, and I have been NOT wanting to go into the basement to pick them up.  SO...I brought them up.  

Will I have to eventually go downstairs to get heavier weights? Yup. 

Does that matter right now, as I want to simply begin? Nope. 


So here they are - and as I wander throughout the day, I pick them up, do bicep curls, triceps kickbacks, lunges with overhead press, right here in the kitchen.  

I want to start, I wanted it to be easy, and this is the easiest way to start.  

What are you waiting to easily start?

Spring

Today it is the first day of spring. It is welcomed. Today is also the first day in a long while, perhaps a month, since I sat down with the healing, nuturing power of my journal.  I wrote intentions for moving forward, I wrote about desires I want to see come into full being.  I wrote. Is there something from your past, something from your wellness care that has worked and yet you have dropped it or it has slipped from your daily round? Is it time, now, to begin, again?

The Choice of Happiness

"Happiness is not an accident. Nor is it something you wish for. Happiness is something you design." -- Jim Rohn {Originally posted on my private blog: Monday February 27 2012} I love the quote above.  Why?  Well, because it suggests we are responsible for our own happiness. Something I discovered and have rediscovered again and again as I have moved through these last 48 years.  I am  responsible for my own happiness. I wanted to be happy when I grew up and I bet you did too.  I bet when you are speaking about your children, about your friends, or your parents – you say, ‘ I don’t care what they do; as long as they are happy.’ True?  True. Happy, happiness, big meaning.  What does it mean to you?  Of course it is subjective, relative and an in the moment answer.  You could be out in the freezing biting rain, and you would be happy to be dry and warm by the fire.  You could be in a horrible relationship and be happ...

The Glorification of Busy

Source Unknown  I love this article.  http://www.tylerwardis.com/busy-isnt-respectable-anymore/ Busy has been glorified in our world and it can create a life filled with overwhelm, sadness and guilt (I know this from years ago when MY life was 'busy'). I also hear it so often from clients and participants in my workshops; from people longing for something different for their lives.  Remember: You create the life you want.  I love this part from the article:  For one month, I’m going to stop using the word “busy.” I’m going to resist the comfort of it to try and dig deeper to explain how things really are. If I feel busy, my hope is to be aware enough to discover why and to learn how I can change it. I highly recommend you invest a few minutes to read this article  http://www.tylerwardis.com/busy-isnt-respectable-anymore/ Thoughts?
