Feel like a kid again

 

Saddled with responsibilities and poor lifestyle choices many adults have forgotten what consistent energy feels like.  During a 5 day cleanse toxic sludge is reduced and positive energy is freed and redirected to feed your life. Reboot your body and build on what you’ve been given. Read the testimonial section and experience it for yourself. Excess food intake, even the good stuff, will decrease energy.

Sadly I see a rising number of colleagues and family members  struggle with disease and forced to deplete precious resources to battle it.  While I believe all roads lead to greater awareness I think you’ll agree that it is heart wrenching to see loved ones in pain.

Our planet, food supply and genetics  weigh heavily toward illness but our habits are even more important. Stack the odds in your favor, be proactive. Cleanses aren’t the magic bullet but they are definitely a significant variable in accessing  stored energy and  disease-free living.

Nourishing Habits LLC is a wellness company delivering the finest cleanses our region has to offer. I was born into this lifestyle and at 50 years old continue to learn from it’s  pearls of insight. I consider it my duty to offer community members superior cleanses and I do just that. Pave the way to improved health and vitality-feel like a kid again :)

Spring Training in 3 Steps

Kick it up a notch and be at your best as mother nature unveils a glorious spring. Now is the time to move your body more than you have been. Don’t be fooled by this cold snap-spring is close-by.  As a tree hugging nature lover my favorite event, the Bimblers Bash on April 3rd 9a.m, raises money for West Woods Land conservation. It’s a fun, muddy and humbling run around the perimeter of the woods.  http://mrbimble.com You will get dirty! Cycle classes are a great way to have fun while increasing endurance, and shedding winter weight. I just bought a road bike and am committed to getting in cycling shape by spinning 3 days a week beginning March 1st. My  husband is a strong cyclist and goes on weekend rides with really fast cyclists. I’m learning to feel the fear and do it anyway when it comes to fast downhills. I am learning, (through consistent practice), to ride fast enough to at least see them ahead of me. Training centers http://ctcyclecenter.com and shorelinefitness.com.  Manifest your athletic dreams by doing the leg work involved in making them a reality. Step One-get out of your comfort zone. Step Two-stay there for increasingly longer periods of time. Step Three-repeat 3+ days a week. Notice your resistence, list of excuses and take consistent action to make your goals a reality. You deserve to achieve them.

Pedal Happy & Be Well,

Kai

Children and exercise

January carries the magic of hope for a healthy year of new beginnings. I’m all for magical thinking as long we do our part. Move it or lose it. There will be days of great excuses to skip workouts and eat less than ideal. Keep your actions aligned with your goals and help your children do the same. Many obese and unhealthy teens don’t have the transportation to get to fitness or healthy cooking classes. Let’s help our children move toward healthier goals through modeling and supporting their efforts. It won’t just happen on its own. Gone are the days of fetching water from the well, walking miles to school , carrying loads of harvested food on our backs and running from saber tooth tigers. Far from it. Most teenagers sit in class much of the day, share time with sedentary technologies and are rarely in nature. The lucky ones are carted off to exercise classes or join sports teams.  Cross training is vital for the development and maintenance of healthy bones, strong hearts and with the proper nutrition healthy cellular development.  Leaving our comfort zone and moving in unaccustomed ways also provides psychological space; useful in coping with  life’s demands and confusing teenage years. Shoreline Health and Fitness has a wide array of classes and special rates for students, Bodi-n-motion offers fun creative pilates based classes including  a Tuesday evening cardio Pilate’s class for teens, Shoreline crossfit offers guidance in strength training with ‘loud’ music teens love.

“There were once doubts that strength training held any benefits for children.  But a new research review confirms that children and teenagers can increase their muscle strength with regular workouts.

The findings support recent recommendations from the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) that kids strength-train two to three times a week under professional supervision.

Studies have shown that children’s risk of injury from strength training is no greater than that from other types of exercise or sports, and the potential benefits of such training, such as increased bone density and decreased body fat, generally outweigh any risks.”

Reuters reports:

“Overall … the training was effective at boosting kids’ strength, with gains being greater among older kids versus prepubertal children (typically about age 10 or younger) … The average strength gain varied widely among the studies, but in the majority the kids improved their strength by 20 percent to 40 percent of their starting levels.”

Running Barefoot


Middle aged and striving to preserve body parts I’m used to wearing my tempurpedic sneakers for pavement and trail runs. Vibram five toes are the closest I have gotten to running barefoot and the difference is startling. Acutely aware of fine musculature long forgotten I now use varying foot apparel to cross train. I am used to mixing it up, (fitness is not static), but barefoot running has humbled me. It’s official-the science backs it up. Get out of your comfy cushioned sneaks and use your feet or Vibrams. You may find it a humbling experience as you inhabit your body in a whole new way.
