I’ve been rebounding, moving a cold out of my system. “The lymphatic system, commonly summarized as the “garbage disposal of the body,” relies completely on our conscious movement. Unlike the cardiovascular system with the heart automatically pumping fluid, the lymph system relies on our body movements as a pump. Movement turns on the garbage disposal – without movement that forces the lymphatic fluid to drain, toxins collect stagnantly in the lymph instead of leaving the body. Any type of exercise, such as walking, weight lifting or swimming, helps flush toxins in the lymph. But rebounding is by far the most effective movement therapy for increasing lymph flow and draining toxins from the body.”  Good info here –> Benefits of Rebounding and How To Do It Correctly.

I’m not making any resolutions but I am fixin’ to consider striving to be more mindful of health and fitness from this date forward, In 2016 I let myself burn out and do too much. I sustained a few injuries and in Aries style I ‘kept working thru them.’ Note to self: don’t do that again. I was going to joke “I’m too old for this sh*t!” but that’s not true. I’m not too old at all, I’ve just let myself sustain injuries due to inconsistent and under educated (self) training and then didn’t give them proper time to heal. They are all finally healing up now and I’m wiser for the lesson.

Even seasoned professionals forget what they know! Mariah Carey clearly waited for cues in her earpiece that she didn’t get.  Lesson #1: Guidance doesn’t always come to us in a form we expect. She could have continued syncing but now she couldn’t trust what she heard. She was clearly caught off guard and unprepared to go bareback. We have to let ourselves be present enough in each moment to look for other clues when we feel our primary source of guidance has dried up. The more you look for them, the more you find.
