Rehab

Yesterday I got some great news : )  I can start rehab for my foot, and hopefully I will be back in costume in 2 weeks!

I can't wait, it has been a trying time to once again be injured and out of commission.  However this time I don't feel as stressed as I did with my left ankle last year, when I was out of the show for 6 months!  I feel confident that I am healing properly and am excited to get back to work!  it's only been 5 weeks.  Take that partially torn FHL tendon! In yo' face!

I'm also super crazy excited to get back to Krav Maga!!!!!!  I haven't trained in just over a month.  And that is really hard for me because I miss the sweaty, draining physical and mental challenge Krav gives me.  I miss my Krav Maga community, I miss training with them and learning new techniques.  It's so great to get better and see others get better too... Wow it's so empowering!  I feel good just thinking about it! #totallyaddicted!

Ahhh, to be back in my training gear and punch something! LOL!

Soon enough I'll be back in the blink of an eye.

Have you ever been so bored you wanna cry? No? I'll blame it on the cleansing.

Cleanse

I was in Hawaii 2 weeks ago, on the beautiful island of Maui. I wanna go back. It was my first time there. And the week prior, I sprained my ankle to the point of partially tearing a tendon, but i didn't know that yet. It was our last day of work before our greatly anticipated 2 week dark, and I somehow, for a reason life hasn't revealed yet, injure myself before shows. I obviously did what I needed to do... Taped up my ankle and did 2 shows.
It was painful.

But anyways, enough playing victim and feeling sorry for myself, this blog post is not about my misfortune (and of course this misfortune will probably turn out to be the best thing i needed at this point in my life). This blog is about the opportunity that has risen from being unable to train and dance.

In Maui, i was with friends, on vacation, unable to go on hikes, too tired to be too active, so many a "Hula Girls" (my predered infinity-pool-ocean-view tequila cocktail) were ordered. Hehehe. :-) the drinks were excquisite, but very sweet. And i had a lot of them.

When i came back to Vegas, i found myself craving sugar, craving sweet dessert and treating myself to sugar over sugar. My body couldn't function anymore without the stimulation of some third party substance. I started deinking coffee as not to fall asleep in mid afternoon. ...whoa. For a self proclaimed healthy sexy mama, well, not so healthy after all.

I decided to get back on the wagon (is that the expression? Don't know. u get the point). And so i'm doing a juice cleanse. Target: detoxing my liver.
Foreseen goals: kick the sugar addiction, punch caffeine in the face, and give my body a mama-loves-you-tough-love makeover.

So far so good, i just completed Day 3 of my cleanse. I'm xcited for day 4, I feel my body purging toxicity and my mind needing quieting. I can litterally feel blood pumping in my body in places that need healing. I had to stop myself tonight and meditate; my brain was fighting with itself, ego presented its ugly face to me like a witch in the mirror. I was judging others and calling them stupid and bitches... Who was i?? It's like all the toxic waste my body's getting rid of is actually not just physical human matter, it's emotional and spiritual too. Wow. I let go of all the waste in my body mind and soul and welcome purity, clarity and unconditional love.

Cleansing for life, cleansing for love.

Why

Why am i in a boot again? Is life perhaps telling me to slow down? Arrh! But why? I had a good rythm going, why do i have to stop?!

I got an MRI read yesterday of my right ankle that i sprained right before going on vacation. I partially tore a tendon in my foot... Wha wha. :-/ And no it's not the same foot as last year that kept me off work for 6 months. But it's ok, this one will recover quickly; mind over matter and being smart is what i'm embracing.

Reminder to me: life's perfect and i'm in the perfect place to be in this very moment. It's time to check in and create a shift, stimulate a movement and create momentum for the future.

I welcome this foot injury w respect and am open to what it's offering to teach me.

Thanks Steph for reminding me to stay present.

Thanks family and friends for being there for me.

And thank you everyone on twitter and facebook for your encourgement and support! It fuels and makes me smile :-)
