Spring Renewal

Spring Renewal As the trees, shrubs and flowers start to bloom here in Charlotte - dusting us with their lovely pollen and causing most of us to sneeze, cough and generally wish it was over, we can celebrate the new cycle of life starting all around us. Every year, nature provides us with the gift of starting over. Everything looks fresh and new (well, with the exception of the pollen coating). How does nature do this? I admit it - I am a bit of a science geek. I love reading and researching health, biology and general science topics. My favorite tv show to watch is The Big Bang Theory. (I actually get most of Sheldons jokes. LOL). This interest lead me to ....

Perseverance or Fear?

“It always seems impossible until it’s done.” -Nelson Mandala So many things in life fall into the category. It is why we make New’s Year’s Resolutions - and then make the same one again the following year. We never really believe we can do it. We have to believe in ourselves to make a change. Any change. And We have to get through the fear. Most of us have fear and don’t realize that fear is what is really holding us back from achieving our goals. One of my fears after my health issues was all about working out. Why? I was a law enforcement officer. I was suppose to be in great ....

The Comfort Zone

We are guaranteed to experience challenges in our life. Especially as we strive to live our lives to the fullest. This is the main reason most people stay the same. They don’t want to get out of their comfort zone and deal with the challenges of changing something. Everyday life is comfortable - at least right now. Most of us fail to realize the greatest rewards we receive and earn in life come from taking a risk. Getting out of our comfort zone and trying something different or new. Change only happens when we recognize this truth. Think about the last time you tried something new - outside of your comfort zone. Our hearts race - we get ....

The Season

This month is “The Season.” The month when everyone starts paying attention to gifts and checking o ff lists and making decisions about who should get what, etc. This whole gift-giving season seems to have become vastly distorted over the years. We use to use this time to do “extra” nice things for people. To the neighbors who keep an eye on our house when we are out of town, the mailman(woman) who brings the mail, the garbage collectors to clear the trash.....people we appreciate but don’t often take a moment and tell them we do. Now, we worry about did we get the right gift, whether it is of equal value to what they give us, and did ....

October Mid-Month Musings

“I alone can not change the world, but I can cast a pebble into the water and the ripples may change lives.” -Mother Theresa Many of us forget we really do have the ability to change the world. Just like Mother Theresa. One kind gesture - a smile, a wave, allowing someone to merge. All of these are free to us. They can have a huge impact on the person who receives them. Who may “play it forward” and impact someone else. And so on, and so on. Changing the atmosphere of the neighborhood, community, city, country, and world. One smile at a time. But we often miss one person in our efforts to be kinder. ....

Kindness Matters and it's FREE!

“ Kindness is free to give and priceless to receive.” -RAKtivist We are moving into the Fall and Winter seasons. This time of year brings us a lot of holidays and reasons to celebrate. It also brings with it the “need” to spend money on others to show we care or the sadness of the loss of someone important to our lives. Most of us fall into one of these “categories.” Our society and culture have continually reinforced the idea that if we aren’t buying lots of gifts for people we care about, we must not really care about them. We have mostly forgotten the real purpose behind most of these holidays. We are meant to ....

Letting Go to Move Forward

“ When one door closes another door opens, but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.” -Alexander Graham Bell September is the month when nature begins letting go of summer. The sun starts setting earlier, trees start dropping leaves, birds start moving south and our gardens give up the last of their bounty. It's a time of change. Many of us want to hold on to summer - cold weather and winter are not our “cup of tea.” We are attached to summer. An attachment is holding on to something that no longer is helpful. If the birds held onto their nests in winter, they could ....

Pat R.

I love Thrive and my instructors, Colleen and Debbie! I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and have found that the Thrive exercises have greatly improved my ability to walk and move. I feel stronger and healthier! I have been attending classes for a year now and cannot imagine my life without them. The classes are good at helping to strengthen and stretch your muscles and they always have suggestions for anyone who needs extra help with certain areas of their body. I love these ladies, they are very special!

Ed H

Colleen and her team are awesome. They are exceptionally gifted and are great motivators. No matter how I feel or how nervous I am to try something they are always able to get me to the next level. You are challenged to be your best and move forward out of your comfort zone but still feel safe and secure. I look forward to my classes each week and know that it’s not only fun but functional, I feel better afterwards and it’s helped improve my retirement.

Excellent Instructors

Just feel completely grateful for this class and the ability to attend so close to my home. Appreciate being in a group of like individuals and having an excellent, intuitive teacher who is skilled and knowledgeable about the limitations and needs of seasoned individuals, Blessed.
