Book Updates!

So, I've got a couple of books that I'm going through right now.

This week I've gotten a little behind with May Cause Miracles by Gabby Bernstein. But I'm on week two and it's all about loving your body! I so need this so I'm going to take my time on this one. Today's "Miracle Moment" is: My false perceptions of my body are an attack. Today I choose love instead of my ego's perceptions. So appropriate for me. I have struggled with body image since I was a young girl. As a mom of a young girl, I don't want her to struggle with it. However, the thing is that kids often follow in your footsteps even if you are verbally telling them another thing. They pick up on how you treat yourself and they tend to treat themselves the same way. Here's a little quick vid on Gabby explaining this week's focus:

I also, literally, just started reading Made to Crave by Lysa TerKeurst. One of my friends, April mentioned she was reading it and blogged about her feelings on it over here. I bought this book last year to read with an online bible study, but I guess I just wasn't ready for it. This year is different though. This year my spirituality is very important to me and so I guess it just now makes since. I read chapter one yesterday and can't wait to continue. It's all about how God created us to crave...BUT to crave Him not food, alcohol, drugs, sex, etc. Only to crave Him. Here's another vid for ya!

What books are you reading right now?!

W.O.T.D. ~ 01.03.13

Hey there! So below is my workout for yesterday. I'm going to be REALLY good the next 6 weeks because I'm partcipating in two challenges that end on Valentine's Day.

The first is Tone It Up's Love Your Body challenge which started January 1. Check it out here.

And then I'm hosting a 30-day Shakeology challenge - woop woop! Just replace one meal a day with Shakeology for 30 days and get moving. Your workouts can be whatever you like whether it is a Beachbody program (and we have some great packages that include the workout program along with a bag of Shakeology at a DISCOUNT!) OR you go to your gym, get moving outside...whatever you want! JUST MOVE! We are starting this challenge on Monday, January 14. My hubby will be doing the challenge with me so hopefully your sweetie will join you! Order your ShakeO here.

So after all that are you sitting there in anticipation for what my workout was?! Well here ya go...

After two days of running intervals with the Tone It Up chicas my groin and hip flexors were sooorrreee. So in the A.M. I did the Sunset workout from TIU.

Followed by some short Tara Stiles yoga.

For my P.M. workout I had planned on going to the gym to do another cardio circuit from TIU but my legs still hurt. So I went home and did this yoga video from Tara Stiles. It was wonderful...you should try it out!

Oh hot dang...I almost forgot to mention that I'm also doing Chalene Johnson's 30-Day Challenge. Yesterday's assignment was to come up with 10 goals that I'd like to accomplish in the next year. So here ya go...BA BAM!
