If you’re following my stories, you see my post workout selfies daily like this one from today! I get messages all the time about how happy I always am after my workouts. Wanna know why? Because it’s one more workout I have completed even though I have every excuse in the book not to get it done: I’m tired. I’ve got 3 kids up playing all around me. There’s toys all around. Elyse is leaving banana peels on the floor for me to slip on. I haven’t fed her a full breakfast yet. My muscles are still sore from my workout and massage I did on Saturday. I started working too late. My food isn’t digested all the way. BUT...I still did my workout anyways. I’m one day closer to my goals. I’m stronger mentally because I didn’t give in to any of these excuses. I did it because I can and able bodied. Don’t let lack of time, kids or any other excuse stop you from taking care of you. In a world filled with chaos and craziness you exercising is the one thing you can control. Seize that time and make it a non-negotiable and create a daily habit to get it done no matter what.

I sure am thankful I met this guy! I knew in the short time we were together before we got married (7 months from meeting to married) that he was going to be an amazing father. It’s part of the reason why I fought so hard to have kids as we struggled with infertility for 8 years. Just seeing how he was with other kids made it so hard while we struggled. Now to see him with our 3 miracles and nearly 16 years of marriage later. Especially with Elyse and how he literally melts when she flashes her grin at him. Brings so much joy to my heart. It helps me realize that even though our infertility journey wasn’t easy it was worth it in the end! I’m so thank to be on this wild life together with him. He is the best husband and father, serving our country proudly and doing whatever he has to do to provide for us. Happy Father’s day to my best friend and partner in crime! #fathersday #pcosfighter #miracles #momof3 #fitfam #militaryfamily
Do you have a “happy place” that you think about to help you relax? I love the beach. I love the sounds of the ocean. I love the feeling of the powder soft sand between my toes and I love the feeling of the waves. If I didn’t burn and get as red as a lobster within a few minutes of being exposed to the sun I would be at the beach more than I do now. When I was pregnant with my first son I practiced hypnobirthing. And the one constant thing I was able to create, my safe place, was the beach and especially the sound of the waves. Since then I have fallen asleep to the sounds of waves every night because it literally helps me to relax. Any time I need to relax, like in a massage, bath, meditation session,l I turn on my waves and I’m instantly transported there and can turn off my brain. If you struggle with relaxing find a sound that just puts you at ease. Close your eyes right now and where would you love to be? In the mountains listening to the wind rushing through the trees? The sound of rain? A babbling brook? Even the busy sounds of NYC! Imagine your place. See it in your head and just let your mind drift there. And I bet you can find an ambient sound to play to help you relax. Take some time for you today and just relax. #relax #beachlover #meditation #healthylifestyle #sounds #relaxingsounds #nature #beachbabe
