Women have held the misconception for years that when they, “lost the weight” something magical will happen and all their insecurities will go away and their self-esteem will magically soar. I’m sure for a select few women that is true, but for the majority, even when we lose weight our insecurities don’t lesson, and our […]
To Change Your Life You Just Need To Start SOMEWHERE
While I’m sure there are a few people who are entirely happy with their lives, few of us can say that there isn’t something we’d like to change. But how do you change your life? For most of us, all we ever do is think about wanting to make that change. Few of us ever speak […]
Nova Scotia’s Pan Am Princess Ellie Black!
In the words of one of the CBC broadcasters last week, “Every young girl in Canada wants to be the next Ellie Black.” source And in these games, I don’t think there has been a more true statement. Ellie is powerhouse, and was a force to be reckoned with last week coming home as the most […]

Tapping Solution for Weight Loss & Body Confidence {A Review}
I first heard of Jessica Ortner early this year when Bex interviewed her on BexLife about tapping. Prior to that I’d never even heard of EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) and since then have watched a few more interviews Jessica has done with Bex (I’ve linked to one later in this post) and became interested to […]
Becoming Flexible & Strong
I don’t know if I read it in one of her emails, or if it was in a video, but I remember Tara Stiles once talking about the parallel between your life on the may (as in the yoga mat) and your life in general. How when she first took up yoga she strived to master all […]
