Never apologize for being sensitive or emotional. Let this be a sign that you’ve got a big heart and aren’t afraid to let others see it. Showing your emotions is a sign of strength.

Hello my wonderful followers =]

Yikes, I haven’t been on here in over a year. In all this time I had a major life change that has disrupted my life, caused me to have a massive relapse and has really changed me. I’ve gone through so many emotions, it’s been intense that I feel like I’m a different person, not o sure whether it’s a good thing yet, I don’t feel strong enough within myself to say I feel any better. However I’m not going to go into anything here, I want to try and keep this space as positive as possible and don’t feel like sharing any sensitive information publicly, so if you have any questions please just private message me.

Otherwise I’m finally starting to feel like I can do things again, small things nonetheless but it’s something. I’ve picked up a few new hobbies to engage my mind which I’ll start sharing on here soon. I want to get back on here to share ways in which can help people recover, whatever their recovery may be. I’ve found creative therapy to help a considerable amount at calming the mind and keeping my hands busy. As well as exercise and generally getting out of the house whenever I can.

I will be doing some re-arranging on my blog to include the new things I have been taking part in and making it more personal. Hope to hear from some of you soon.

YOGA FOR HANDSTAND : Strenghten your arms, work your core, challenge your balance, do a handstand.

From top left, line by line :

plank pose - chaturanga - upward facing dog - side plank

forearm plank - side forearm plank - bridge pose variation - upward plank pose

crow pose prep ( one leg up, hold for a few breaths) - modified side plank - half moon pose - extended cat pose

Preparing for inversions, getting used to be upside down :

downward facing dog - dolphin pose ( preparing for forearm stand) - headstand prep ( lift one leg, hold, and eventually lift both legs to get into a headstand) - standing straddle pose ( preparing for tripod headstand)

handstand prep - your success at doing a handstand

> Practice inversions against a wall, be careful !

Once you are comfortable in a headstand ( against a wall or not), move to forearm stand, and then practice handstand against the wall.

Tuto for handstand , click buddy, click !

Directions:

In a large skillet or sauté pan, sauté garlic and onions in olive oil over medium low heat until softened.

Add ground turkey meat and cook, breaking meat up with a wooden spoon until browned.

Once turkey meat is cooked through, add pasta, chicken broth and enchilada sauce to pan.

Bring to a boil, then reduced heat to low and cover.

Cook on low, with pan covered for about 15 minutes.

Then remove lid and let simmer for additional 5 minutes until pasta is tender and sauce has reduced.

Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup of cheese.

Top pasta with additional cup of cheese and melt under broiler for a minute or tow, or place lid back on pan and let heat from the pasta melt the cheese.

Garnish with black olives and green onions.

how the fuck is this healthy

[goodhealthgoodvibes-deactivated]

It’s just oatmeal which is healthy, protein powder which is healthy, banana is healthy, peanut butter is healthy, half a quest bar is healthy. The only “bad” thing about this is the chocolate granola and I only used 2 tablespoons and like 3 pieces of vegan chocolate.

Carb and sugar city. No no!

[goodhealthgoodvibes-deactivated]

Carbs aren’t bad and god forbid I have ONE breakfast with a little extra sugar. If you don’t like it why would you reblog it

[smokeyhatesfire]

Should have said it better! Did not mean to offend! Your breakfast would have been perfect with a good cup of coffee. But with the obesity problem in the States we cannot enjoy this. I might be able too after losing 60 lbs! It looks so goood! Have a better day!

[health-gasm-deactivated20141125]

THIS IS WHATS WRONG WITH PEOPLE. YOU FOR REAL THINK EATING NOTHING IS GOOD FOR YOU? YOU FOR REAL THINK EATING THIS IS GOING TO MAKE YOU GAIN 30lbs OF FAT EVERYWHERE ON YOUR BODY?!

[ohkokay-deactivated20220606]

Goodness gracious. That looks amazing, by far ‘healthier’ than what most people call breakfast these days. Most important meal of the day, babes, you need something FULL of energy and diverse nutrients… Like this one.
