Yogalosophy

A group of Pink Ladies and myself are doing the 28 Day Mind-Body Makeover with Mandy Ingber, who created the book:  Yogalosophy.   It has been so refreshing!  Today I am on Day 3 - My challenge for today is to slow down, embrace mother nature and go on a walk.  My kind of challenge.  It's always nice to go back to the basics of simple living.  As I try to do everyday.  Life can get busy, crazy and FAST!  But this challenge has really taken me to a new place.  A place of calmness, not sweating the small stuff and appreciating what I have.  

I went to my local book store about a month ago and came across her book.  I thought Hmmm this looks fun and interesting but just wasn't in my budget at the time to purchase.  But as I was driving home I kept thinking I should have bought the book.  A few days went by and still wanted the book.  I keep thinking this would be perfect for me since my schedule has changed and I haven't been able to attend my yoga class.  I prayed about it and of course God gave me the wisdom I needed.  My challenge group with the Pink Ladies was coming to an end and I wanted to make sure that they would stay on track.  What better way then to invite them to do it with me!  Here we are today - Day 3 and group of us are working together to become stronger and more flexible.  I'm no yoga pro but just being able to share this journey with them is a blessing.  It's all about Paying It Forward.  I would not be where I am today if it wasn't for that visit to my local book sore.  Very Appreciative.  

Yesterday was National Running Day and I shared the day with my Pink Ladies!  I was able to log in 5.77 miles.  Thank You Ladies for making the day special.   We even practiced yoga in the park.  Now that was fun.  We were surrounded by a lake, trees, humming birds and our cute babies.  That's the beauty of mother nature.  Taking your passion and putting it out there.  

Surround yourself with people who really encourage you, lift you up when you are weak and simply have FUN together!   Fitness is meant to be FUN, rewarding and experienced.  What fun is it if you are always serious??  I know for me I like to have fun, get creative and sweat with the Pink Ladies.  We are all in this together - I'm no better than them.  When we run, we run as a team.  When we yoga, we yoga together.  Both body and mind.  That's being STRONG & FEARLESS!  

When I started my Yoga challenge I set an intention to continue to be an example to my family, community and Pink Ladies.  Be the example of a FIT MAMA - STRONG & FEARLESS.   I've named it and I will claim in.  All by the Grace of God.
