"It's okay if you fall down and lose your spark. Just make sure when you get back up you rise as the whole damn fire."🔥 I don't think I would have made it through the past year (or 6!) without one of the best friends (and trainer) anyone could ask for- @garagegirlfitness 💕I'm not sure there is anyone else I know who can make me feel quite as optimistic and positive💫 Yes I may be relatively weak at the moment and not anywhere near where I used to be at my baseline, but I'm stronger than I was yesterday💪🏼 . . . . #chronicillness #gritandgrace #strengthquotes #keepmovingforward #progressnotperfection #garagegirlfitness #spooniesupport #spoonielove #spooniestrong #fitnessmotivation #fitfam #mindbody #mindfulness #riseasthewholedamnfire #positivethinking #positivemindset #autoimmunepaleo #autoimmunedisease #autoimmunewarrior #autoimmuneprotocol #aipbalance #aip

Chasing Joy Photo Challenge Day 2: “Make Something.” 💫 @georgiemorley of @init4thelongrunblog and @chasingjoypodcast is hosting the #ChasingJoyPhotoChallenge this week; today’s theme— “Make Something”. - I took this one out of the box; instead of going with a photo of a recipe or craft or something of the like, I focused on the more “intangible” and abstract definitions. - All the clichés say we MAKE our own happiness; we MAKE the most of the situation; MAKE changes and so on. But it’s true! Don’t get me wrong, sometimes you just need to scream “WTF?!” or go to a good boxing class, but after that— all mindset! - That crazy lady up there 👆🏼 @garagegirlfitness has taught me more about making your own happiness than anyone— Make a face. Make friendships. Make a community. Make a happy place. Make family. Make traditions. Make memories. The list goes on. But MOST importantly MAKE DREAMS COME TRUE...both your own and others’. Because this boss lady makes dreams come true every day and I most definitely would not MAKE it through life without her! . . . . . . . #bostonblogger #healthblogger #healthylifestyle #wellness #wellnessblogger #wellnessjourney #autoimmunepaleo #autoimmunedisease #autoimmuneprotocol #fitnessjourney #fitnessblogger #fitnessmotivation #lifestyleblogger #spoonie #spoonielife #spooniestrong #chronicillness #boston #fitnessblog #healthblog #mindfulness #meditation #lifestyleblog #challengeyourself #photographychallenge #makesomething #outofyourcomfortzone

“The sun shines not on us but in us.” —John Muir 🌞 HOW DO YOU CREATE YOUR OWN SUNSHINE?! Music? Movement? Hobbies? We all have something! 🙏🏼 Woke up to clouds and gray and lots of “blah” energy all around. SOOO some Sun Salutation flow seemed like the perfect remedy to boost my energy and get my blood flowing. One of my FAVORITE things about yoga is that you can bring it anywhere! No equipment needed, just the 3 B’s— your Breath, your Brain, and your Body! 🧘🏻‍♀️ @garagegirlfitness always says to me, “I LOVE YOGA FOR YOU!!! I can see it in your energy, hear it in your voice, sense it in your attitude.” And she’s right, practicing consistently changes me. I’m more grounded and balanced, physically and emotionally stronger, and more comfortable and confident with and in my own body. Find the thing that changes you, yoga or not, and stick to it, make time for it, and keep it a staple in your life! . . . . . . . . . #meditationspace #yogaoffthemat #sunshine🌞 #createyourownsunshine #shinebright #sunsalutation #sunsalutations #yogastrong #yogaselfpractice #selfpractice #morningflow #iamwellandgood #mindbodygram #yogischoice #yogisofinstagram #yogiseeyogido #yogamagic #thejoysquad #longrunpresets #bostonfitness #bostonblogger #mindfulness #meditationtime #freeflow #yogafit #yogafitness (at Wilmington, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzLaeBThDLC/?igshid=y0kq32hogfrq

“Make food choices that honor your health and tastebuds while making you feel well.” —The Joy of Eating by Rachel Hartley Nutrition 🤦🏻‍♀️ If it doesn’t taste good, DON’T EAT IT! There’s no way torturing our tastebuds will make us feel “WELL”, am I right???🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m all for nutrient packed foods, especially when I was at the peak of my GI problems, but I’m not willing to give up eating yummy options as a trade in for “wellness”. 💪🏼 @imbuilt bars are my new favorite quick and easy, protein on the go! (Link in bio- code: INPROGRESS). Your tastebuds will be SHOCKED that a protein bar could be so good🙃 I’ve said this before and I’ll say it a million times over, tracking food and macros is not for everyone, and often times it’s not for me either— but every once in a while, in order to get back in tune with my body, I am more mindful about my macros in order to remember how my peak energy feels. We get so used to being “tired” (one of the most subjective words ever) that it becomes our new normal. Once I started working with @garagegirlfitness on #mindfulmacros I started to see and remember how strong I can be again! 👇🏼 Do you have any favorite protein on the go staples? Thank you @garagegirlfitness bc I almost always have a BUILT BAR on me lately!🥰 . . . . . . ____________________________________________ #proteinonthego #builtbar #wellnesswithoutobsession #mindfuleating #intuitiveeating #listentoyourbody #iamwellandgood #mindbodygram #wholebodywellness #strengthbuilding #healthjourney #macrocounting #nutritionmatters #foodasfuel #foodasmedicine #proteinbars #coffee_time #baristadaily #chocolatelover #chocolatelove #indoorplant #houseplantsofinstagram #houseplantopia (at Wilmington, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/By7zClChF2W/?igshid=1mte2fqg9t002

“Say ‘ALOE’ to summer!” 🌿☀️🌵 The end of the school year came so quickly, I don’t think I’ve fully processed that I’ve said “goodbye” to this school year and the amazing kids that made it what it was or that I’m about to slow down for the next 10 weeks. This is the most flexible I’ve left my summer since becoming a teacher and I won’t lie, I’m pretty excited!! 🌊 This weekend I’ve been brainstorming a summer “bucket list” if you will— simple joys and goals to incorporate into my days (and cheap because no more paychecks for 10 weeks 😂🤣😝🙌🏼)!!! 1) Go to the beach more 2) Try @garagegirlfitness Saturday boot camp 3) Start a @teacherspayteachers shop 4) Practice my Spanish 5) Organize my apartment 6) Practice and improve yoga arm balances/ yoga in general (@rootsyogaburlington ) 7) Visit the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum 8) Learn more about yoga in the classroom/in schools 9) Take more pictures/practice my photography 10) Write more - DO YOU HAVE ANY GOALS OR BUCKET LIST ITEMS THIS SUMMER?! Leave ‘em below, I wanna hear! 👂🏼👇🏼 . . . . . . . ____________________________________ #summer2019 #summervibe #summersun #summergoals #summerbucketlist #beautycounter #cleanbeauty #nontoxicbeauty #aloevera #aloeplant #houseplantsofinstagram #selfgrowth #selfdiscovery #raisethebar #raiseyourvibration #bostonblogger #bostonfitness #bostonbloggers #summerfeels #hellosummer #sweetsummertime (at Wilmington, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByxZl0ABAGO/?igshid=29plbwxoetgs

“It is through the alignment of the body that I discovered the alignment of my mind, self, and intelligence.” —BKS Iyengar⠀ 🧘🏻‍♀️⠀ A little extra stretching when I got home from my @garagegirlfitness training sesh this afternoon! Do you have any favorite stretches?! 👇🏼 Hip openers are my absolute favorite! Not only are they beneficial physically (alleviate back, knee, and hip pain), but mentally as well!⠀ 💫⠀ Did you know emotions can get trapped, and a lot of times in the hips? When we’re stressed, upset, anxious and so on we engage and clench our muscles without even realizing. Try some stretches before bed (suggestions in stories 🤗)- I promise you won’t regret it! . . . . #longrunpresets #thejoysquad #yogafit #yogafitness #stretchtherapy #obbbsessed #bostonfitness #bostonblogger #stretchitout #hipopener #wellnessblog #wellnessblogger #healthcoach #strengthening #yogaeverday #firelogpose #agnistambhasana (at Wilmington, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByjGc8hBU33/?igshid=1em7of4oql3nk

“Your day is pretty much formed by how you spend your first hour. Check your thoughts, attitude, and heart.”⠀ ✨⠀ My face after doing @garagegirlfitness muscle from home!👆🏼😝 now ready to take on Sunday. Ready to do laundry, clean, food prep (flexibly), and organize myself. Is it a sign I’m getting old if I’m excited I have time to step back and prep for the week today?🤷🏻‍♀️⠀ ☀️⠀ What’s your favorite way to prep and set yourself up for the week? . . . . . . #longrunpresets #thejoysquad #strengthandconditioning #strengthtraining #intuitivemovement #intuitiveliving #wellnesswithoutobsession #healthyish #wellness #wellnessblogger #wellnessblog #personalgrowth #mindfulmovement #iamwellandgood #mindbodygram #bostonbloggers #bostonblogger #wellnessjourney #raiseyourvibration #bostonfitness (at Wilmington, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByNVMLHBS-w/?igshid=kpsvagefpscz

“The willingness to show up changes us, it makes us a little braver each time.” — @brenebrown : Daring Greatly⠀ ☀️⠀ Not everything has to be picture perfect, in fact nothing actually is. We just have to SHOW UP. Showing up is ALWAYS the first step. After our willingness to show up comes the motivation, inspiration, purpose, and dedication. From little things like day to day routines or social outings, to life changing decisions— showing up is the most important (and hardest!!!) part. ⠀ 👏🏼⠀ What will you show up for this weekend?! Me? Training with @garagegirlfitness and yoga at @rootsyogaburlington with @gingerboermeester are at the top of my list. NOTHING gets me more motivated and inspired than that 🥰 (at Wilmington, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByJQy6AhyA1/?igshid=on5zwmu0qx92

“If we all threw our problems into a pile and saw everyone else’s, we’d grab ours back.” —Regina Brett⠀ ✨⠀ @garagegirlfitness and I have brought up this quote👆🏼more times than I can remember— not only to help one another put things back into perspective but to have compassion with others and even more importantly, have compassion with ourselves. When I pulled this card this morning I thought of our reminder quote immediately. When you start to be hard on yourself, remember “everyone is doing the best they can and know with the tools they have”.👆🏼🔮🙌🏼⠀ -⠀ Tag and thank “your person”, your go to confidant- the one you can always rely on to help you reframe and put things back into perspective (and live with compassion🥰). . . #longrunpresets (at Wilmington, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByBduJ3hkmr/?igshid=1irrx043mwo1a

“Our souls are always calling us towards what will light us up.”⠀ 🌟⠀ I’m sorry, but anyone else feel like we’ve been jipped of spring this year? Definitely done with the cold and gray weather and totally channeling this productive and focused coffeehouse vibe from @bluebottle Coffee in Boston! When it’s dreary for such a long period of time, we need to make our own sunshine, am I right? 🤷🏻‍♀️ Pay attention to the people and places that bring you joy— surround yourself with that joy! ⠀ 🥰⠀ Tag “your people”/ name your places below that inspire you, motivate you, and raise your vibration! @garagegirlfitness @stylebyliv @rootsyogaburlington @caffenero . . #longrunpresets (at Blue Bottle Coffee) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxa8gEAhsAu/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=2zva1tqq4l0k
