It's a balmy 80° in Dallas and I couldn't resist

It's a balmy 80° in Dallas and I couldn't resist the urge to take a mid-day, poolside ⛱ yoga break.
⠀⠀⠀
It's so crazy that, exactly a week ago, our power was out and we were frantically searching for a hotel with vacancies. Oh, and our community's pool was frozen over 🥶. But today, it's almost hard to believe that it snowed at all!
⠀⠀⠀
It's left me thinking about how fast situations in our lives can change and how awesome it is that we often, just like Dallas, don't look like what we've been through.
⠀⠀⠀
In this season of my life—after storm ⛈ and sunshine ☀️ alike—I'm reminded that some of God's most beautiful characteristics are that He's merciful, He offers us grace, and He's a miracle worker. And while every prayer I pray may not be answered the way I want it to be, His goodness is evident through it all.
⠀⠀⠀
Today I'm praying that God reveals Himself in an area of your life where He's needed most and that your happiest days are ahead.

Okay—does anyone else struggle with vitamin-indu

Okay—does anyone else struggle with vitamin-induced nausea 🤢?! I know I can’t be the only one!
⠀⠀⠀
I started taking daily vitamins / supplements a few months ago and, honestly, it's one of the most dreaded parts of my day💆🏾‍♀️. 9/10 times, I gag / choke them down and then I have 20 minutes of nausea (and an attitude😒) to follow. And yes, I whine the entire time.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Well this month, I said goodbye to those HUGE Vitamin C pills I bought and started trying these Immunity Drops by @raeforwellness. I grabbed these badboys at @target and have been adding them to my coffee, tea, and water like a boss 💪🏾. Between these and gummy vitamins, adulting just got that much easier for me!

I’m not going to romanticize these past few days

I’m not going to romanticize these past few days and pretend that I haven’t been WILDLY frustrated and ready to pack our bags (for good)🧳...
...but our family is safe 🏡 and warm💡(and Hula is loving the snow)! And for that alone, I’m incredibly grateful.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
I appreciate each and every text, call, and DM received these past few days. Please keep those still struggling with the impacts of this weather in your prayers.

The hardest part of today's run? Not stopping when

The hardest part of today's run?
Not stopping when I ran through the smoked brisket-scented breeze coming from @lockhartsmokehouse...TWICE 😩🤤!
⠀⠀
The best part of today's run?
I'm becoming a better runner🏃🏾‍♀️🙌🏾!
- -
I reevaluated my mindset around running this week (thanks to the @nikerunning coach-guided runs), and I realized I may have approached running all wrong—apparently, “easy” runs are just as valuable as the tough ones 😅!
⠀⠀
Note to self📌: A run can be enjoyable even if I didn't beat my fastest pace or further distance.
I’m running to build a healthy habit.
I'm running FOR Whitney, not in competition with her.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
So my current goal? Keep getting BETTER at running. And for me, that means
💥being better prepared for my runs (💦hydration is a priority)
💥being better to my body post-run (don't skip the stretch🤸🏾‍♀️)
💥being clear headed during my run (moving meditation > mental to do list writing)
💥working on my form (no fights, no fists!🥊😂)
💥being quick to celebrate each and every run as a win🏆!

Are there any mindset checks you’re putting in place to rival your fitness goals this week?

"Behold, I will do a NEW THING…" #Isaiah43v19
- -
Today, I'm making a soft return from a month-long social media "hiatus," and honestly, I'm a little reluctant. This year has already been a mixed bag of emotions for me and opening IG doesn't always feel like a healing experience.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
But this month, I'm leaning into God's promise of NEWness and tailoring my feed to be just what I need it to be.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
Content I won't 🙅🏾‍♀️be engaging with:
❌Anything playing into the "if you didn't hustle during the pandemic, you suck" mindset😒.
❌Any of the "I'll sleep when I'm dead" content🥱.
❌All the "ZYX has 24 hours in the day, and so do you" foolishness🤫.
❌Any "Valentine’s Day self-care" content that's focused on chocolates and teddy bears🧸.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Content I'm committed to creating more of:
✨Evidence that resting is a critical pillar of my wellness practice.
✨My simple, less than extravagant approach to healthier living.
✨Honest, unashamed pics of my post-quarantine 15 body.
✨The small, often mundane highlights that have helped me keep going.
⠀⠀⠀
February, girl, I'm glad to see you!

There’s just something special about New Years Day…
⠀⠀⠀⠀
Today has been an incredible reminder of God’s mercy and faithfulness in our lives. Surviving last year—with my health, job, and spirit in tact—has been a true blessing. Through my uncertainty and anxiety, God’s favor has been evident.
⠀⠀⠀
This year, I’m praying for continued ease and confidence as I navigate the twists and turns to come. I have no idea what this year has in store, but I’m ready to face it all with courage and gratitude.
⠀⠀⠀⠀
2021, I’m ready for you!

"Dear children, let us not love with words or spee

"Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth." #1John3v18

This year showed me that I still have a lot to learn about love.
🔸How to love my friends and family from a distance.
🔸How to love strangers who don't seem deserving.
🔸How to love my husband (and let him love me) when we butt heads.
🔸How to love myself through disappointment, shortcomings, and frustration.
🔸How to love my life as it is today, instead of waiting until I "have it together."
⠀⠀⠀⠀
This week, I've been reminded that knowing God is knowing love. And that, when intentional and active, love can literally drawn me closer to Him and, through Him, closer to others.
⠀⠀⠀
As this year comes to a close, I'm asking God to open my heart and give me a posture for loving WELL in 2021.even in the toughest of times, we are never far from God's love.

Day 4 of the #AbidingFlowChallenge: Love
⠀⠀⠀⠀
Y'all, I've been telling my husband about my younger, flexible, bendy days all week in preparation for this flow. And while age has made backbends a challenge for me, I'm in love 😉 with the progress i've made these past few months. Here's to (falling) back in love with wheel pose and incorporating more heart openers into my practice next year!
