summer of wellnesss

My oh my, where has the summer gone?  It’s officially fall here in Colorado.  The weather has been cooler, a slight breeze to the air, and sweater and boot season is upon us.  I am happy fall is here.  For me, seasons are a time of change and renewal.  Fall for me is a time when I start to calm down, slow down and streamline a lot of the business in my life.

yoga for athletes

Athletes are focused.  Athletes are dedicated.  Athletes are ambitious.  Athletes are intense.  We do what it takes to train, practice, condition, work hard, fine-tune and push our limits to be the fittest and perform 110% at our sport.  My chosen sport: CrossFit, the “sport of fitness” as it is known by the global CrossFit community.

paleo challenge

For 2016, I am honing in my diet.  For years I have struggled with body image and my relationship with food, but last year I managed to finally make peace with myself and food.  I can honestly say that I love myself and fully appreciate my body now.  Coming to terms and realizing self love did wonders to my relationship with food.  Instead of fearing food and restricting, I wanted to feed and nourish the body that I have grown to love.
