How is it already November?


With the holidays quickly approaching, our predictable routines are bound to be disrupted. I love this time of year for all the reasons that it's also challenging - parties with friends and family, excessive food and alcohol, lazy days where workouts just don't seem to fit in. While it's important to enjoy the holidays and cherish the extra time with our loved ones, it's just as important to remain committed to our healthy habits. If exercise is prioritized, the evening get-togethers are that much more enjoyable. And I plan on attending as many as I'm invited to!

I'm especially looking forward to this holiday season because we'll be able to celebrate in the comfort of our new home. The last couple of months have been hectic and, as a result, my blog has suffered neglect. But now that all the boxes are unpacked and the paintings hung, I'm finally in a position to dedicate more time to writing and to my business. And as a new valley resident, I'm eager to expand my client base. With Thanksgiving around the corner, it's a great occasion to begin an exercise routine. We all know the facts - exercise is no only good for the body and the mind, it also fights chronic disease, promotes better sleep, and just makes you feel good. I'll definitely need to be reminded of these benefits occasionally over the next two months during all the festive cheer, and I'd love the opportunity to remind some others as well. Feel free to contact me via email if you or anyone you know may be interested in working with a personal trainer. I offer specials on 5 and 8 session packages for the months of November and December. It also makes a great gift for loved ones who could use a little extra motivation. And, let's be honest, we could all use some around Christmas!
