Philly Fit Workout-A-Thon
This past weekend I had the pleasure of attending the 4th Annual PhillyFit Workout-A-Thon and presenting my Cardio Dance Party workout for which I won "Most Fun" workout!
It was great to see 150 people of varying ages and fitness levels experience the 18 different workouts that were presented. It goes to show fitness IS fun and when you let go of insecurities and strive to do your best, regardless of the body builder or couch potato next to you, sharing a workout can be a very bonding experience!!
Shifting from working out for only the physical benefits to working out for the amazing way it FEELS as well as the plethora of health benefits makes all the difference it the world. It is what changes you from a want-to-be workout participant to a lifetime fitness fan!
So start tapping into how you FEEL from working out and look for opportunities to get to know those working out around you! Do this and you'll be saying " I can't 'weight' for my next workout!!

New Years Resolutions
With the New Year comes New Years Resolutions and around this time of the month peoples motivation tend to lose momentum.
Usually come January 1 people have declared an overt goal like wanting to lose weight, wanting to change jobs, or wanting a different kind of relationship. These are outer directed goals, but with each outer goal there is a deeper inner motivation for wanting to achieve the goal or change. That is sometimes referred to as a covert goal. For example a person may want to double their salary but the core motivation is they want increased freedom, security, and power.
Once a person taps into the covert driving force or reason for wanting the change then and only then will they get sustainable results. Once you tap into this true agenda you can create action steps, move forward, and most importantly have lasting results.
Asking yourself the following questions will help you tap into the core motivation for wanting any change you may desire.
1. What is missing from the current situation and why is it desired and important? Put another way, what has remaining unchanged costing you? For example, if you are over weight you may be missing the ability to run around with your children because you lack the energy or get easily winded. This has cost you valuable bonding time with your children.
2. How do you benefit from remaining the same? For example if your goal is to stop smoking you may benefit from continued smoking because you enjoy the social time that you and your peers have while sharing a cigarette.
3. What costs are to be paid in order to make the change? For example, you may want to change jobs but you may have to take a pay cut to do so.
4. What are the benefits for the desired change and why? For example, changing relationships may provide you with and increased sense of freedom and that freedom is important to you because your partner is very over protective.
After answering these 4 questions in as much detail as you can you will have a better idea of why you really want to change (or not) and what it will take to reach your desire goal.
GOOD LUCK!!

Beauty of Mathematics
Although I am not a particularly religious person.... I tend to be more spiritual in nature, I personally believe that God (or Universal consciousness as some call it) resides within. I think no matter what ones religious or spiritual affiliation this video is great food for thought.
ENJOY!
