Something DREADFUL happened... time to Treasure Hunt!

Something dreadful may
have happened in an area of your life.  Fitness bumps can leave you
feeling incredibly shaky as well, possibly preventing you from moving
forward.  You may have found something you love and works for you, then
suddenly the gym closes, your favorite teacher moves, or perhaps you
suffer an injury... so what can you do now? Here are two
easy steps to turn that negative situation around, and can be applied to
any situation or circumstance.1. The first step is to
pause to reflect on your new situation.  Write a list that views it from
all angles: location, people you are with, type of activity you were
enjoying, all items good and bad.  Sort your list in order of which
items were most important to you, and lower down the list, items you
feel would benefit from change. (Ex: I loved my fitness teacher who
moved, but the gym one block over has the same program, and that gym is
closer to my work, and I wasn't using the old facilities...)2.
From the thoughts within your list, the best new direction will slowly
reveal itself.  At one point I was exhausted from teaching fitness, and
chasing my two year old, and being newly pregnant.  I was choosing
fitness classes to attend at an upcoming conference and read about
Lawrence Biscontini and his wonderful Tai Chi/Qi Gong training.  He was
the perfect person with the perfect program at that moment in time.  It
was my new found "Treasure."  I loved the course and still love his
videos.  (And now I can share it with my readers!) Reflect
and write down anything that is weighing you down to turn it into a
Treasure Hunt of your own.... It could be a new healthy snack you tried
and love, to a discovery in a new neighborhood you've moved to.  Email
me when you discover and enjoy your new treasure, no matter how large or
small! You can find Lawrence Biscontini and learn more
