work out at compo beach!

I was sitting under one of the only shady spots at compo beach this morning drinking my coffee and journaling when I saw a group of 12 or so people working out with a trainer. They were really being pushed hard, in the hot sun, and I must admit I felt a little guilty sitting there so peacefully! Then I had the thought that my time relaxing and journaling was just as important to my well-being as their time to exercise was. Keeping a balance in mind, body and spirit is important for our lives. I hope they took some time during their day to relax and keep it balanced too!

Tomorrow it will be fun in the sun while playing tennis!

Let the summer begin!

I'm ready to get going people! With the summer ahead of me I'm looking to begin a more disciplined (ugh?) yoga practice, but I must say I am overwhelmed with all the terminology! Now, I've done yoga before, but don't ask me what type of yoga it was...matsyasana, vinyasa,ashtanga just to name a few. Very confusing! So, I'll see if I can get some answers at this new yoga establishment in town...wish me luck!

Open The Door Integrative Health Coaching



Welcome to my first attempt at "blogging"!




My hope is that you will come away from this site with new ideas to explore as you Open the Door to living the life you are meant to live! Perhaps you can share what is working for you (or not) as you try to stay healthy or get healthy...
So, first things first....
What is your intention for your life right now? These are the ideals that are at the root of your motivation for your goals.
What are your goals? What are the specifics? How have you tracked your progress? Making them specific and measureable makes them clear and more likely to manifest. What actions have you taken that support your goals and intentions?
Fascinating isn't it? Begin with baby steps! Take the time to listen to YOU!
Now let's hear from you...how is it going?!
