Day 10 is our very special GRANNY!
And my Mumma. And all things wonderful.
I could write a novel, but I also want to keep her slides to speak for themselves.
But imagine the honour and gift that I feel knowing that my Mum found confidence in herself for the first time in my life, thanks to this space? That she still has a purpose, taking care of the gorgeous kiddos, loving on them, spoiling them, now that her own grandchildren have aged and many moved away.
Knowing that together, we have been able to heal old beliefs, and stories and behaviours, and through my own healing, it has helped her, significantly.
"I can't lose weight. I have X and Y and Z."
"I walk everyday."
Addiction. Lose self esteem. Playing the victim.
But sometimes, we just haven't learned. We just haven't realised. We haven't had someone to call us out on our bu****it and show us another way. We only know what we have witnessed. We don't see where we are going wrong, because it is all we have known.
I knew there was a way. Not yo-yo dieting. Not starving. Not overdoing it. And I showed her. And it worked. And for the first time in her entire life, she has maintained her weight for 10 years straight. And it hasn't even been hard. It just is.
She climbs mountains (climbed one and done, actually, but still :P) , she goes on swings, and slides. She does what she can in the gym, and yeah there are limitations. But when you feel good, when you finally learn a lifestyle that allows to you to be and feel healthy with ease? Without even trying? Farrrrrkkkk.... The rest takes care of itself. When you stop punishing yourself, when you stop hating yourself, when you give yourself the opportunity to learn something new, or listen to what others can share with you..... it can change absolutely everything.
Mumma offers free babysitting assistance at 9am sessions. And logs in virtually at 6am sometimes just so she can fulfil this role. SO LUCKY!
Every day in January we are sharing our beautiful community, celebrating their amazingness and humanness and just showing that they are just like you. We are all just learning to accept who we are and live our best life. One workout in an epic community at a time.
