Beauty in Nature
Went for a run today –and saw the most beautiful flowers all over the place.

Stop and See!
I have been buying flowers the past few weeks –to brighten up the house and also to help brighten up the family. I think even if you aren’t depressed or feeling low, staying connected to beauty, nature and wonder is key in staying centered and at peace. It’s all a part of self care –continuing to…

Refocus and Refreshed
I am still recovering from the race but feel better — and I really am so proud of myself for stepping far far out of my comfort zone and doing it. I challenge myself all the time with CrossFit but this was not only physically challenging but mentally. My brother and I talked afterwards and…

Gearing up for the Big Race
This is the week of my American Odyssey Race— I just reviewed my legs of the race and seems do-able. I ran 6 miles total on Saturday with some rests in between but I know I can do it with less rest –I may not be the fastest runner but I can push on! 11 which is…

Keep Moving On
Just a slow uninspired day around here for me — super busy Friday work wise. Other than that – I took an extra rest day to see if it will make any difference in how I feel. My body has been really sore and I kind of feel like I have before when I have…
