Hola Amigos!



I don't know if it is a turning thirty thing (can anyone else relate?) but I just feel utterly compelled to be creative. I have decided to revive my writing skills as they have become a little bit lost over the past few years. Instead of becoming a sports reporter, my journalistic roots branched into English teaching and I found myself focusing on facilitating younger minds rather than freelancing with my own. It is as though I was a little sailboat bobbing along the river of contentment when all of a sudden this wave of realization almost overthrew me. I hope my artistic armbands would have saved me even if they were a little deflated.

As much as I love teaching, I don't want to bob along anymore, ebbing and flowing, I want to fork a little lightning, forge a path for myself and hopefully help others along the way. I have this absolute passion for fitness, healthy eating and mindfulness that I want to sprinkle everywhere like beneficial (b)rain-drops. Even if it is only one tiny tip that somebody inputs into their own lifestyle or a thought planted that helps someone to start their day in a positive way, I just want to feel like I am contributing.

I am a strong believer that if you exude gratitude it comes right back at you and envelopes you like an airport arrivals hug circa Christmas time. I feel hugely blessed to have my health so I can actually act on my desire to inspire. I firmly feel that if you really, really want something to happen, the world will work as your wingwoman and conspire to make it so. I plan to belt out a blog every week featuring a range of topics including my four fitness faves. From planks to pull-ups, prepping food to podcasts, I might even incorporate some alluring alliteration.😁

This little expression of enthusiasm is just a tiny textual trailer of what I hope to create. Ultimately, I want to structure and scaffold my own life to greater effect and provide a little lifestyle lift for others along the way.

Here's hoping I add a little yay to your average day! 😊

That February Flow: Becoming a Yoga Teacher: Module 2

Image
𝟯 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗜 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗠𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗹𝗲 𝗜𝗜                          There is nothing quite like a three day yoga course to get a gal out of a little rut! January, as a month, gets a reception as rigid as the season it resides in. However, this year, for me, it was the absolute best! My Mam and Dad were over to visit and I embraced tour guide life like *Francis Brennan himself. As with all things in life, they always draw to an end. Time has a par-tick-ularly pesky habit of running out. This left me a little homesick, luckily, getting back on my mat was just the trick. *Elderly, enthusiastic and endearing Irish Tour Guide. Google him for a mood boost.  𝔾𝕖𝕥 𝕥𝕙𝕒𝕥 𝕤𝕡𝕚𝕟𝕖 𝕚𝕟 𝕝𝕚𝕟𝕖 When it comes to warming up, one place should be at the forefront of your mind, the spine. The spinal spectrum moves in six directions and there are so many poses to add a little yay to your vert...

Embracing The Power of Touch

Image
Anyone who knows me, is well aware of the fact that I am a little bit needy. I have no shame in admitting that I still hop in between Mam and Dad whenever I am home from Abu Dhabi. Did I also mention that I am thirty one years old? Yep, I'm that child that never grew out of the cuddle phase. The one who gives linebacker love to friends and family she hasn't seen in a while. I have been known to clinch a little too tight at times. I like to call these: Jesus squeezes , the ones that have been months in the making. They have that unique feeling of the other-worldly, that transcendental touch. I'm not completely soft however, I do like to listen to rap music. I like to think of myself as a bit of a  hug thug . I have spent many years sharing and stealing hugs from various family members, some a little more reluctant than others. (I'll touch  more on that one later). You may be wondering what I am getting at here? Well, I recently watched an extremely enjoyable exch...

Mindfully Moving Through March: YTT Module 3

Image
Three months into 2020, three modules complete. One-third of this year is almost behind us and what a transformative trinity it is has been for me. I feel so lucky to have the opportunity to become a teacher and share this powerful practice with others. Something other-worldly occurs when I rigorously roll out my mat. My mind settles and tracks a way through the tangle of thoughts to merge with body and soul. I like to think of it as  Trifecta Time . While some thoughts come and go, there is nothing quote like the positive feeling that pervades. A magical movement in mindset and a boost in mood, it is something I like to call:  Mattitude.  Three things I learned from Module III Express   Yourself When you have the privilege of leading someone through their yoga practice, it is essential that you present to them the most authentic version of yourself. This time could be the highlight of their day so don't be afraid to transmit your true self. We ...
