2011 has begun! I hope it's been grand for you so far!
I know many people start the year with at least one resolution and depending on how it's framed, approached, prepared for, a good percentage of those same people are already thinking of moving it to next year's resolution. Don't give up just yet...maybe it simply needs to be tweeked.
Remember, in my last post, I focused on "each moment". As you're making changes to your life and habits there will be times you make choices opposite from your goal...imagine that ;) For a first step, let's try to be prepared for that...then we won't be surprised, instead we will recognize it and choose to start the next MOMENT fresh (not the next meal or the next day or the next week).
Also choose to practice self-kindness in this new year. This is not the same as self-indulgence.
Self-kindness involves respect and forgiveness. It involves motivation and commitment, but not punishment. It involves challenging yourself to be the best you, you can be, while at the same time loving who you are in this moment.
All of this can be done with different exercise and nutrition plans. Let's just remember why we're doing it...To lead healthy, balanced lives that are full of all the energy we need.
Please let me know of any resolutions you've embraced, what's working for you and anything I can help with.
And for those of you in the area and interested, the new yoga sessions start next week.
Hope to see you there and hear from you soon.
