Finding Your Legacy Within

I had someone ask me about legacy. You know I turned fifty and this is what comes up when you hit the big five O. Not so much the pressure of hurry up and do the thing but an inventory. We can do an inventory at any age and the key here is to tally up the wins. You have come so far! I'm talking about the comebacks, the pivots, and the opening of one's heart, especially when the go-to was to shut it down. Tally it all up, reminisce, celebrate, and sit in the beauty of all that you are AND be sure to include all things body.

We do an inventory of our bodies looking for what is wrong, how it used to be, how it should be...but don't forget the inventory of what is working. It's the little wins that mark the move towards healing, moving better, doing more, and resting with ease and grace.

You can be the high school track hero and someone who healed from having had breast cancer and made it through with a new way of looking at yourself, at the world.

Courage, persistence, strength, self-compassion, empathy, and the art of asking for help. Those are some mighty fine wins. The scars are still there AND so are the wins.

That pesky plantar fascitis that you worked through and haven't thought about in years...you did that! The shoulder pain that you decided it was time to take care of? Yep, showing up for yourself. Kudos, bravo, and high five my friend! Keep it coming!

It's one thing to identify the problem. Another thing to find the solution. And then it's all about the follow-through. Showing up for yourself, like the big wins, starts with the little moves. You stretch and take care of your body because you are important. You make the time for rest because you are worthy. You create a practice of self-care because you are your legacy.

 Enjoy the Stretch of the Week!
