Becoming: Gratitude

Tuesday, June 2, 2009

Gratitude

Today was a relaxing day of yoga. Stretching our muscles and opening our hearts will become even more important and appreciated as we continue with this program. As we lay quietly on our sides, Devorah asked us to bring to mind three things that we are grateful for. This is something I try to make a nightly habit before I go to sleep. Today, I am grateful that I have a job that I love and am able to do what I love everyday, I am grateful for sunshine and warm weather, and I am grateful for my health because my bad days are still pretty good!

What are you grateful for?

"Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace and gratitude."

I'm so grateful to have this group now! Excellent yoga class today and tomorrow will be our first real exertion. This is much more meaningful to me than it was before and I will keep my journal up!

Who are we?

Robin Maxfield
Robin is an artist, mother, business consultant, sales trainer and the catalyst for starting this group. She came to CrossFit after being a member of Healthworks for two years, where she spent the majority of her time in the steam room. Eventually, a very fit twenty-something in her office got tired of hearing her complain about her body and asked her if she was serious about getting into shape. This man introduced Robin to CrossFit in 2007. Since that time she has become fitter and stronger than she ever was in her youth. Many additional side effects followed, such as increased libido, greater confidence, better fitting clothes and an all around more active participation in life. The tables have turned and now it is Robin that is tired of hearing her friends complain. She is ready to support other women in acquiring what she knows is true wealth - health!
Devorah Steinberg, LICSW
Devorah is a psychotherapist who specializes in mind/body medicine, meditation and hypnotherapy and is a certified Kripalu Yoga Instructor.
