Healthy Chicks

This coming week, I’m going to focus very hard on finding harmony and balance in my life. Not over-analyzing everything. Not thinking too much about the future, nor too much about the past. On just going with the flow. I believe that if you let yourself think, do, and say as you please in the moment, you will ultimately find that place of harmony and happiness you’ve been looking for.

Once I got back to Boston last week, and the half marathon was over I got a a really weird feeling. You know, that feeling you get when the holidays end, when you went back to school after prom or on the flight home from an incredible vacation. I can’t believe it’s all over. Now what? It’s an odd thing going from running nearly every day, plus long runs on the weekends to nothing. And I have to admit, now that I’m not training for anything I haven’t been very good about keeping up with my exercise, let alone running.

The other day, I decided I’d end this mood I was experiencing. Even though I knew I wasn’t quite ready to run again, I laced up my sneakers and hit the gym.

I had to stop, and at first felt defeated in a way. Last week I ran 13.1 miles, and now I can barely do 1? I was angry.

Good morning everyone! Isn’t it such a lovely day in New England? It felt so nice to walk out of the house this morning in a spring-y dress, boots and light sweater. IT’S ABOUT TIME. I’m heading home now for my cousin’s baby shower. It should be a wonderful day, filled with family, food and fun.

Anywho, this week I’ve been thinking a lot about life, more particularly being in control of your own life. I think sometimes when things get a little crazy, we tend to forget that we have control over our own lives. No one else is in charge but YOU. If you hate your job, you don’t have to stay in it. If you’re not happy with your relationship, you can end it. If you want to pick up Italian again, travel Europe or start playing piano, you have the ability to. Sometimes you just need to remind yourself that YOU are in control, and can go anywhere you want to go. So now a lesson from the ever-so-smart Dr. Seuss:

Hope you all have a great Sunday & enjoy the sunshine!

XoXo,
