Soulful Healing

How do you react to pain, physically and emotionally? What is the worst pain you have ever experienced? As I ask these questions, I am laying on my couch in super warm pjs, shivering uncontrollably while my entire body is sweating like I just did a hot yoga class and i feel ao nauseous. I had such a great Saturday….i went to launch at my gym and I did both classes and it was amazing!!! I did not hurt myself, I left feeling tired but happy. Last nite my left hand began to hurt. Not unusual…. I have bone pain but there is pain and then what I call a flare up. It hurt today, all day but I still went to the gym. I can be stubborn like that. Probably not a good idea. Pain flared up felt like I am going to puke off to the bathroom I went. Got back in class, threw a few punches and nope, I quit. I actually quit. Got in my car and yelled then cried.
Now my pity party is over, going to bed and pray that I can fall asleep and wake up with no pain.

Oooops video cut off!
So I guess I will end with wishing everyone a year of rebirth! May you all connect with your inner selves and reintroduce yourself with dreams you have had for yourself that maybe you let fall by the wayside! Change is possible for all of us we just need to prioritize ourselves and put the work in to create a life that represents the spirit within each of us!
Xoxo,
Michele

With another new year about to roll in it’s got me thinking about traditions. The new year seems to be a time to maybe create changes in your life, your health etc. I use to many, many years ago and usually around my weight. If you are a member of a gym we all know that things ramp up between Jan-March and then people fall back into old habits.
A few years back after not making any “resolutions”, I decided to choose a word that would be my essence for the year. I’m still thinking about my 2026 word.
What do you all do? Nothing? A resolution? A word? Setting goals? I would love to hear ideas of what you all do!
A new year, a new chapter, letting go of the old and welcoming in the new!

While I love the holidays and all the family gatherings, they can be fairly lonely and difficult for many. My own holidays have changed with the loss of family members. The void of those lost is never filled.
So let’s try to remember as we push through the crowds at stores or wait for service at a restaurant that we are fortunate to still be here, that the holidays are more about being together than rushing around to make everything perfect.
The smile or compliment or tip you leave for someone might just be the nicest part of their day.

65 days post end of my treatment. I think it is finally sinking in. It is really done. Focusing on getting strong, enjoying life and getting back to my teaching.

How many times have you heard or read that you breath into your life what you think and speak?
Ask yourself why you are trapped in this viscous circle of negative beliefs,actions?
It just may really be speaking what you want out loud even if you don’t believe it! Who or what do you want to feed? God or the devil or if you are not a believer think of it this way good vs bad.
Practice speaking everyday how you envision the life you want, the person you want to be, the family you want.
You’re worth it!
