Oprah & Michelle ~ fitness & inspiration

Friday, March 20, 2009

Of all the things we do for our children -our next generation- is taking care of yourself on the list? Honestly, the example you set is far more powerful than anything you can say! that's why Michelle Obama's quote about wanting her daughters to see a mother who takes care of herself is shines so brightly!
Here's what Our First Lady says in her interview with Oprah: "I began to prioritize exercise because I realized that my happiness is tied to how I feel about myself. I want my girls to see a mother who takes care of herself, even if that means I have to get up at 4:30 so I can do a workout....if I had to get up to take care of my kids, I'd do that. But when it comes to yourself....exercise....feel good".
And I have infinite respect for Oprah who said a decade or so ago, "I don't love exercise, but I know that I can't have the life I want w/out it"! OK, so personally I do love exercise, and I do believe that I can help people find the right fit for them to love exercise! Really, you should do things you enjoy ~ but I do have huge appreciation for those who have not yet discovered their nitch but do realize that bodies thrive on movement, exercise, oxygenation and are willing to commit to their health.
Before specializing in dynamic functional range of motion for athletes and injured people (and everyone in between) with the Mattes Method, I enjoyed a career as fitness trainer (for groups and individuals). It was my job to make fitness fun & effective! It still is! (I do still do some of the more generic training for fun) Never under-estimate the power of fun and inspiration! Find activities you love whether it's Yoga or Hoola Hooping or hiking or lifting weights, and give yourself the gift of enjoying your physicality!

Great Alignment Allows for Great Energy Flow!
