Today is a Great Day to Start an Adventure
What am I waiting for? I have wanted to do this for 10 years! Today is the day I am committing to myself, my growth, my dreams and punching self doubt in the f***ing teeth!
As I sat on my yoga, in so much gratitude for the practice, my journey with it, my personal growth that has come from learning, practicing and teaching yoga for years…
I felt this fiery, excited, burning energy inside me.
Over ten years ago I wrote in an old journal about how much I wanted to do a 90 day yoga challenge.
Until that moment in July of 2021 sitting on my mat, the idea of a 90 day yoga challenge terrified me!
“What if I fail? What will that mean about me? What will people think of me if I fail? What will I think about me if I fail?”.... The list goes on and on.
The point is that the fear of failure and the fear of judgment held me hostage for over a decade!
Without even having the balls to try!
Because I couldn’t see beyond my fears.
But on that day 2 years ago, as I sat on my mat, beaming in so much gratitude for all the transformations I had created in myself and my life, over the last decade and particularly in the last couple years…
I decided…
“Fuck it! Why not try? What do I have to lose? So what if I do fail, I can just try again. What will I learn on the way? How will I grow through this journey of at least trying something new?
Think about the transformations you have already created in the last year of your life! Imagine what I could do in 90 days of intentional connection time with myself!”
Set some loose parameters for what my personal challenge would look like.
Wanted to make it a challenge but also doable for where I was at in life.
Decide at least 20 mins a day of intentional mat time (or paddle board :) each day for 90 days!
That was it.
Decided it didn't have to look a certain way or be a certain style or be a full 90 min class.
Towgee and Kelsey practicing yoga in the mountains mid way through the 90 day yoga challenge.
Just set the intention to connect to myself through my yoga practice for 20 mins a day for 90 days.
And what an incredible journey it was!!!
Cultivated massive trust in myself, belief in myself, understanding and awareness in my mind and body.
Got way stronger! In my body, my breath and my mindset!
Connected deeply with my intuition through practicing at home w/o a class and just moving intuitively each day.
Day 90 came so quickly, in a flash summer was over and pumpkins were on my back porch next to me, as I continued to practice outside in the late fall sun.
Loving the journey.
On day 97 I received a text with an opportunity “out of the blue” to purchase a dream property!
Day 99 we put an offer on the property, contingent on us selling our fixer upper we had been in for almost 4 years.
Day 101 we were under contract on our dream property, where we had mountain views, fenced acres for our dogs to run wild, a bigger shop for our fabrication business and space for me to hold outdoor summer yoga classes and retreats!! Not only were we under contract for the dream property but we were also under contract to sell our old home to a family member wanting to be in the area!!
My mind was blown!!
In 101 days I completely transformed my self belief, trust, my self worth and manifested a dream property as we continued to expand both my coaching business and our fabrication business!
If you have ever wanted to create a transformation in yourself or your life, remember it is never too late!
Allow yourself to not be perfect, allow the transformation to take its own course, allow yourself to speak kindly to yourself even when you feel like you “should” be kicking your own ass!
Remember a little bit each day adds up to massive transformation!
So what are you waiting for? What thing, dream, transformation have you been longing for in yourself or your life that you are ready to start flowing towards?
Today is a great day for an adventure, take the leap and enjoy the journey!
In love, light and gratitude,
Kelsey
