Got 7 minutes?

Years ago I discovered Lee Holden’s exercise DVD: “7 Minutes of Magic” when I had the challenge of coming back from a series of injuries. This DVD has been the one I return to again and again because it is perfect for fitting into a busy day. It includes three different types of routines and that…

I like to bike slow

I like to exercise outside and enjoy the sights along the way. When I ride with my husband he shouts out practical warnings – like glass in the road – while I shout out “squirrel!” He manages to bike with me for a short distance and then heads on down the road for his “real”…

Joy riding

I have always loved riding my bike. When I was a kid I even went to a summer camp that spent the second week on a bike trip. When I was a transportation planning intern at the SoCal Assoc. of Governments, I rode my bike to the Long Beach Bikestation and then hopped on the…

Regular exercise isn’t enough

Recently I’ve FINALLY made big progress with my ankle injury. I started walking with a local group and have been doing some private fitness training with an emphasis on core strength. I went from not being able to walk more than 30 minutes without my ankle swelling and becoming painful to being able to do…

Sacredness of Open Spaces

You may have noticed that I love trees. One of my favorite things is walking down a winding path through the woods. Add a lovely babbling brook and I’m in heaven. I naturally enjoyed being in the outdoors as a child, but as an adult I’ve become convinced about the importance of spending time in…

Wellness Makeover: Morning Exercise

Getting back on track with good wellness habits has been on my mind for a while. I kept shifting it down my mental to-do list as more pressing items seemed to take priority. Of course in the long run, I would only become less efficient and less able to deal with the high stress levels….

Finding a state of wellbeing

There have been a number of reasons why I haven’t blogged for almost two years – yes, TWO YEARS! In future posts, I’ll talk about some of what has been happening in my life. One of them is that I got way off the path in my quest for good self-care. I feel like the…

Fitness Faith & Practice

Lately I have been feeling grateful for how effortless my exercise habits have become. They are purposefully modest ones. My focus has been on making exercise pleasurable and doable. Now it is usually a matter of when, rather than if, I’m going to exercise. I’m especially happy that when I get stressed out my reaction…

Without Further Ado

What can ya say when you’ve been off the grid for a good four months! I just couldn’t let my birthday go by without a peep here. Yeah, after all that turning-40 hullabaloo last year, I nearly let 41 go by unmentioned. But really the silence speaks volumes. It’s been a significant year for me…

Chasing the Sun

The sun was shining today and I came so close to getting out for a nice walk in it. I caught glimpses of it and planned to sneak my walk in various ways between a hectic schedule. However, I managed to not get moving quick enough and missed my opportunity. Instead I had to take…

Does anyone else have a cat obsessed with spinach

Does anyone else have a cat obsessed with spinach leaves? He begs me to toss them to him every night! Runs off with one in his mouth like it's his prey 😹

The saying that hindsight is 20/20 keeps coming in

The saying that hindsight is 20/20 keeps coming into mind when I think of how my perspective has changed and how glad I am to say goodbye to last year. Although I'm not expecting 2021 to be great right out of the gate, I'm hopeful and ready for new beginnings! #topnine2020 #newyear

Fun memory from last year - my 1st Ugly Christmas

Fun memory from last year - my 1st Ugly Christmas Sweater Bar Crawl 🎅 Also 1st jello shots 😂 Looking forward to joyful times with friends returning while grateful for staying safe hanging out on Zoom.

May the light of the season warm your heart that is weary or grieving from
a year of pandemic & politics.
Wishing you all joy in the New Year! These are some of the decorations my mom and I have been enjoying. She's quicker to take them down. I'll be keeping mine up until January 6th 😂🎄✨ #christmasspirit
