Krista Help! I'm NOT a gym person
You don't need to be!
What we DO need, is to be STRONG. It can be as simple as walking for ~2 hours each day (yes WAY more than 10,000 steps) OR working in a TRADE!
If neither of those work for you, then try this 3-5 times a week
5 Squats
5 Push Ups - Use the kitchen bench
5 Sit Ups - Use a weight to help sit up by throwing it forward

So much beautiful! For my BRAIN... NOT so much for my BODY.
The take aways:
Step One - REMOVE the 'thing' that is causing the ruckus.
Step Two - Add in MORE of the beautiful, healing, supporting things.
Job done.
And, here's to the next time I decide I want to eat an entire tray of brownie. YUM.

Can we STOP causing people so much PAIN in the fitness industry. PLEASE.
Step One - Appreciating how ridiculous it is to build an industry off pain and 'doing better'.
Step Two - Now that we know, because 'we don't know what we don't know'... Taking Responsibility for the change.
5 Air Squat is MORE than enough for someone that hasn't moved in a few months, let alone years.
We've got this Fitness Industry Professionals. It's OUR job to make this change.

A tin of Sardines - I almost vomited hahaha
For the love of our brains?! This was HILARIOUS!
The brain game that my very own brain created around a simple tin of sardines.
HORRIFIC. It was HILARIOUS.
Anyway, I got through the tin, much to my brain disgust, and I will now get through 2-3 tins a week for the next 3 to ensure 1. My brain works through it's disgust and 2. Whether they improve my health, as science suggests.

Fascinating and yet another magical experience that I feel SO lucky to be having!
The other side of years of negativity, after spending YEARS to re-write it in the first place! WILD.

This year, it's going to be 10 years since Dad died.
Uncanny and fitting that we happen to be moving from the house he put his heart and soul into designing and building. His castle. The house of his dreams.
BIG feelings. BIG feelings everywhere.
So, here's to compassion.
And appreciating 'we don't know anyone's story'.
And here's to sharing our smile. It really can make someone's day.

Chaos to Calm QUICK
Legendary life advice 'we're only ever as good as our ability to recover'.
So how have I trained myself, and continue to do so?
Step ONE - What is my innate 'Fight or Flight' reaction?
It is to STAND aka FIGHT, so step ONE was learning to STOP there. STOP Leaning in to FIGHT Krista - Standing up is very different to Leaning in.
And it's working.
Then, how to calm the innate body and brain responses?
