Wellness Coaching by Erin Beggs

Does this count as an extreme plank?! 🥴

I had a little too much puppy love this morning so my workout morphed into a pup training session. She gets a little excited when I jump around and get on the floor. Lucky for me today’s workout was cardio and abs. 🙃

I get it, finding motivation is hard especially when the excuses start presenting themselves. Sometimes a 40 minute workout is 60 minutes long. Sometimes a great cardio workout turns into a dog training session. Whatever you do DON’T stop.

I spent the last 6 months stopped and in my own way. I filled my own head with negative thoughts and discouraging self talk. Once you jump on that train it’s difficult to find that spark again.

I spent months doing one workout here then excuses. Then two workouts. Then excuses.

What’s different today? I finally looked myself in the mirror and coached myself the same way I coach others. There is no way I would speak to anyone the same way I speak to myself and it has to stop. The mirror helps.

I reminded myself about how good I felt when I exercised regularly. How much energy I had and how much I actually missed feeling strong.

Well, now I’m back. It’s officially official.

My challenge you to join me! Do something physical each day. 10 squats here, 1 mile jog there. One foot in front of the other. It doesn’t have to be difficult. You don’t have to sweat. Eventually you will fall into a rhythm and form habits. Build on your success each day! Find a friend, challenge them to join you. Make it fun 🤩

It’s time for me to move past my excuses. It’s time to continue moving forward.

Having a freaking blast at work today 😂

Good morning ☀️

It has been a minute since I have been able to enjoy an early morning coffee shop office 🤩

Creating dreams and fueling my story ❤️

My giant dork 🥳

Hood To Coast is 1.25 sleeps (.25 because I have to get up at 2am to meet with my team for a 5am start) away and I am super stoked and so ready!

I was asked to join this team just over two weeks ago and I jumped at the opportunity! Thank you for offering me this opportunity to challenge myself to something new and exciting.

We are sponsored by , don’t get too excited as we are a “fun” team and not really competing for time. Although we will all strive for our personal best times.

I have all my gear ready and am pumped for this adventure!

For those that don’t know, H2C is a 199 mile relay race held in Oregon that starts at Timberline Lodge on Mt. Hood and ends in Seaside. Each team has 12 people who each run 3 legs of the race.

The relay attracts competitive athletes from all over the world and has been a tradition for many runners since 1982 😱

Anyone else feel me on this one 😂

Consider this…

When you think about the seeds that you plant in your own mind do you take into consideration how those seeds influence your actions?

Do you practice behaviors that will fulfill you and will benefit your future self?

What about your thoughts and actions that influence others?
