Climb to the top.

Have you ever climbed a mountain?

Figuratively speaking as well as realistically speaking.

Have a think about this question...

If and when you have climbed a mountain of your own...has anything ever tried to stop you from doing so or anything ever taken you away from a path to get to this mountain?

Obstacles...perhaps?



Oh the amount of obstacles that you will be faced with during this journey in your life.
Obstacles will always be there...hiccups, bumps in the road, hurdles, scrapes, bruises and maybe some broken bones or even broken hearts will occur and likely will impact your life.

This is a part of life, and the beauty of the journey.

I am currently in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India participating and experiencing 'The Heart of Yoga' and everything about Yoga and the tradition of the guru Sri Krishnamacharya...a yoga legend...Five years ago I would never have imagined my life would be the way it is....not even two years ago.

Two years ago, 1 January 2010....I was faced with the most impacting hurdle in my life.

I hit rock bottom. The most potentially-devastating event I had ever been faced with.

I granted myself into a situation where I truly didn't know what was going to happen with me and my life.

I made choices in my life prior to this date that lead up to this event...within our lives...everything is a choice and we have to always be ready and willing to face the consequences for our actions.

Waking up in the middle of the night on a dark road in a muddy ditch, broken, bloody and busted up and completely disoriented...this was my wake-up call. To this day I still don't know what really happened that night but all of the events leading up to it...excessive alcohol, and truly just living carelessly and curiously...all I know is I am so grateful every single day for my life and I try to live each and every day the the fullest.

As frightening as this accident was...I am thankful it happened to me...I would never wish the pain I went through upon anybody, but I am glad it happened.

Life lessons. Obstacles.

Since my wake-up call...I knew something needed to occur...and needed to occur now. 

I started thinking of where I wanted my life to be and the mountain I needed to climb.

I was dreaming big and dreaming powerfully beautiful...in the state I was in this was very difficult to keep a positive attitude...but I had so much love and support around me, then I learned to be alone with my thoughts and trained my brain day in and day out to keep positive and to move forward.

I have definitely worked hard and have been determined to be successful and gracious throughout my life now. I have trained myself over and over to be positive...to be faithful...to have compassion and patience...and so many other important atributes to lead a healthy, joyful, full life.

I have promised myself to love and forgive myself...deeply and completely.

My true authentic self manifests vibrant health within my mind, body and spirit.



I manifested my dream and position to be a fitness professional on board an amazing luxury cruise ship.

I have been blessed to travel to over thirty countries meeting so many amazing, delightful people from all around the world.

My manifesting is not complete...it is never ending and there will be an infinite amount of obstacles to get to the top of the mountains.

I want my light to shine...and I want to shine my light upon you and give you strength, faith and the wisdom to BELIEVE in your dreams.

I guess the message I am trying to get across is if you are dealing with something in your life that you don't think you can go on....or perhaps you just feel stuck....whatever it may be you can get through this.
I know you may not be able to see the light from this hurdle in your life, but you can...and you will.
Think happy thoughts...keep focus on your goal...don't give up. You can be anybody and do anything in this life...the only thing that is stopping you from doing so is yourself.

Determination will get you far...and conviction, faith, and clarity will help you succeed and reach the top of that mountain you're climbing. Śrāddha श्राद्ध: faith and conviction...once you have these two particular traits...you will reach your goal and you shall be fearless.

This I promise you.    

Shine on, baby...dream big and choose to be wonderful.

Namaste.
