Strength = (Kristal)

It's been far too long since I have blogged!  Today I am moved by the topic of Strength!

Yoga helps me to find that personal power... and I get messages from students and friends all the time about it too.  Today I want to talk about a very special student though....
My amazing student, friend, teacher trainee, teacher - Kristal.

When I interviewed Kristal for a spot in the hauteyoga QA teacher training - I KNEW right away she had this 'Personal Power' - This 'Internal Strength' - She almost glowed. Really.  She is one of those people who walks into a room and sparkles.

Kristal was diagnosed with breast cancer about two weeks into the program. Never have I seen her strength waiver. This is her third round of cancer. She continues to look at life as opportunity and growth. She finds strength in places other people would crumble.

I looked into Kristal's eyes last night - before she took my power vinyasa class - a class that WELL people struggle with - and all I saw was her shining light.  She inspires me to greatness. She inspires me to have strength and personal power. She inspires me to appreciate every day. Appreciate every thing.

Kristal will have a mastectomy tomorrow. Pray for her - send her YOUR strength. Think of her - and allow her to inspire you to find your personal power.

I love you Kristal. You are AMAZING.

How to move from Self Doubt - To Personal Power

While at the lululemon Summit - we began our Tuesday with a lecture and discussion about Creating a Vision for our Life.  On the road to that final product - we discussed our personal moments 'going below the line.' You know-  that little inside voice that talks negatively to you. Mine says 'You are not good enough' - 'You don't know enough' - 'Who are you to think you can inspire others?'.  What was most enlightening to me was - here I was - in a roomful of the most elite lululemon ambassadors - a roomful of the most inspiring, most beautiful, most amazing people and many of those people suffer from occasional 'self doubt' - just as I do.  This was comforting to me. The best of the best occasionally have moments where that inside voice doubts, criticizes, condemns. 

So how can we move from that space to Personal Power?  'Above the line' self - talk.  Mine says ' you are good enough' - 'you walk the walk'  - 'JL remember - perfect people are not inspiring.'

I write down my goals for my life, my vision - and I KNOW - everyone starts somewhere. The difference between the top, most successful people and those not at the top - is the personal power to make it happen. Make appointments, be inspired, connect with people on a deep level. Make a difference every day. Do things for others without EVER expecting something in return. Just be the best you - you can be....

... your success will follow.

Finding and Living Your Truth

One of the most amazing things about lululemon athletica is their culture. A culture that supports continual growth and support of all those connected to them.

As part of the Ambassador Summit in Whistler, BC - we took an entire day to create a 'vision' for our lives. We created 1, 5 and 10 year goals. We wrote them down. We share them with a stranger. Some stood up in front of 120 people to voice their 'Truth."

If you have never done goal setting - where you actually WRITE down your longterm goals - DO IT NOW! (lululemon manifesto)

sit down. Create a vision of your life - who do you want to be a part of that vision, what does your career,  your health - your personal like look like.
Then Create some hard, fast goals. BE SPECIFIC. MAKE THE GOALS MEASURABLE.


Once they are down, tell your friends. Tell LOTS of people. Then take out your calendar and start making a PLAN toward your goals. Start living your life - making these goals become your truth.

You have to believe they will happen - in your heart, in your mind, in your spirit.

Live your Dreams.  Make your life happen, don't let your life happen to you. (thank you Chip)
