My eating disorder's been in a ~ m o o d ~ for the past few weeks. That cranky old jerk. I guess it makes sense. I've been feeling a lot of the stress from our upcoming move and there are so many moving pieces. It's hard to plan when you don't have answers or … Continue reading You Can’t Hate Yourself Happy

It’s Ok If You Don’t Know Where You’re Going
Oh, hey there! It's been a while and I keep thinking about how I really want to get back into the swing of blogging, but I keep getting hindered by this idea that I need a good topic, it needs to be perfect, blah blah blah. I decided I just need to get over it … Continue reading It’s Ok If You Don’t Know Where You’re Going
Recovery During Quarantine
It's okay if you're not okay right now. Having your routine overturned, not being able to work, having more time than you know what to do with it - this has been a time of trial and for many of us, it's new territory. We've been dropped down in an ocean of uncertainty, crazy things … Continue reading Recovery During Quarantine
Happy 2018!
Happy New Year! On my flight back to Colorado after my two weeks home for the holidays, I realized I didn't have a book to read, having finished my last one a few days before. All I had was my journal, which I also completed before the year ended. It was 6:30 in the evening, … Continue reading Happy 2018!
Vulnerability and Finding a Theme
Lately, I've been dwelling on the frustration that my writing/posts/social media appear to be too scattered. What started off as a fitness blog and my platform for acquiring new online clients turned into my own online sanctuary for my personal writing, with subjects anywhere from art to functional training and everything else in between. I … Continue reading Vulnerability and Finding a Theme
My Move to Boulder, Colorado
I don't even know where the idea of Colorado came from. A little more than a year ago, I started to make plans to move to out west. When people ask me why I chose Colorado, I usually throw them the "why not?!" with a little verse about how I needed to leave the place … Continue reading My Move to Boulder, Colorado
Self Care and Ahimsa
With everything going on in the world right now, I've been thinking a lot about how important it is to practice self care. That may seem like the opposite of what is generally thought; most people think about how they can help others in times of tragedy and distress. But while helping others is commendable … Continue reading Self Care and Ahimsa
September Update
Ah, September - the gateway month that transitions us into my favorite season. (I say every season is my favorite season once we're in it, but transitioning months feel extra special to me!) The past couple of months have been wonderful, and while I have a number of different topics I'd like to write about … Continue reading September Update
Reading, Mindfulness and Finding Focus in the Age of Distraction
The other day, someone commented on the book I was reading - a novel in the Game of Thrones series - and added that he would so much rather follow the show on HBO. When I asked him if he has ever given the books a chance, he said that he just cannot stay focused … Continue reading Reading, Mindfulness and Finding Focus in the Age of Distraction
I am Enough
Today, I walked my favorite trail. It looked like it was going to rain all day, so no one was there and I was a little hesitant about putting my earbuds in. I ended up walking without music, trying to be as present as possible. I realized the last time I was there was January … Continue reading I am Enough
