On the move...

dear friends, i finally regained most of my voice so that i could start my video blog dedications:)  i've had several people mention to me that they have unusually tight hips.  in deciding what to share for the first of a series of hip opening exercises, i thought that it would be useful to not only give you something that will help open the hips but will also strengthen the pelvic floor.  i've been specifically thinking of several friends and family members who are moms-to-be and who may not only need hip opening exercises but pelvic floor strengthening work as well! this week's dedication is inspired by my friend jax...love, jeni

Spring Cleansing...

"Travel light, live light, spread light, be the light."

I'm in the process of settling into a new space both personally and with my work....this can mean any number of things, but in the most physical sense it means that I've moved my home and business into a different neighborhood.  As anyone who has moved knows, it's quite a process and a time-consuming one at that! While a lot has shifted, I have also found this to be a wonderful opportunity for "spring cleansing"...going through my physical belongings and cleaning them out, cleaning and preparing a new space for my clients, and most importantly, finding ways in which I can let go of unnecessary baggage (not just physical!)--most of which I didn't know still had a hold on my life! 

I've been thinking about the above quote a lot as I've searched for apartments, gone through all the hassles of repairing, packing, cleaning, etc etc and finally moving, unpacking, cleaning, etc etc....I've also felt like I haven't been as connected to my journey with Lift (specifically through this blog) as I've been spending so much time and energy on the move.  The above quote is a gentle and life-giving reminder that no matter what is going on and no matter where I am (physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually), I desire for my life to be a shining light.  I have little opportunities at every moment where I can make the choice to let the darkness of whatever is weighing on me to close in or I can choose to "live light" and live life!

Thank you for reading...thank you for sharing in the moment with me....and Thank you for your presence in my life.

Blessings, Jeni
