There couldn’t be a better time to take that ONE more chance on YOU!! Let’s talk. #coachLinda #livethelifeyoulove

Life was supposed to be different in this second half. I dreamt of these days, years ago, where time wouldn’t be spent chasing children and dreams and I would settle into a routine and write. But -here I am with time and space, yet the words seem stuck. We’re coming out of what was a pretty tough season and it seems that in the midst of the chaos, words found an easier escape from the heart to the journal than they have now. The second half of life is upon me and I’m learning I have to live in this pause and reflect. I’m not used to this quiet and some days it can be deafening. This challenge through HopeWriters is giving me a chance to re-imagine those dreams. There are new stories to write and a new heart to understand. Hopewriter Challenge #reimagine #hopewriterlife

As if living through this pandemic isn’t strange enough, the shift from snow and deep freeze one week ago and almost 90 degrees this week had me unnerved! As I lay here, with aching back and throbbing hands, there is a deep sense of satisfaction. After an early morning cup of coffee looking out over the fields, I was off to reconnect with my garden. Dirty fingernails and a sweaty brow was all I needed to feel that connection again with my soul. Gardening helps me reconnect to another place and time. It’s where I forgive, where I’m challenged, where I wrestle with worries and where I’m inspired to take chances. It’s where hope is planted, faith is restored, and love blooms.

Stillness and childhood aren’t words you usually hear together, but to capture those moments is like catching a firefly. I always looked forward to summertime when schedules slowed down and days took on a more relaxed feel. Despite the lazy days of summer, there were a few structured activities that were a given every day. One of them was rest. Now for some moms, this would be a given for their sanity, and I’m sure on some days it was for me as well. Truth be told though, it was my favorite part of being home with my kids. Story time was a staple in our day and if off on one of our outdoor adventures, cloud watching and daydreaming took its place. On rainy days we’d pitched furniture tents filled with coloring books and crayons. As they grew older, rest became something they sought for themselves. Kids learn a lot in those quiet moments of rest – about themselves, their world, and their creator. It’s magical to catch them in those moments where peace and contentment wash over them and they find rest for their souls. What grace to bring that gift with us to adulthood.

BEACH DAYS ARE COMING SOON !!! 🌞⛱ Being unhealthy stole years of self-confidence from me. It stole hours from me while I Googled: ☑️weight loss ☑️metabolic syndrome ☑️cabbage soup diet ☑️low-carb, low-fat, no sugar...

It stole my memories as I hid from the camera. It was only when I found a health coach to help me that I 💓 gave myself permission to succeed 💓 loved myself enough to reach out for help 💓 kept myself accountable 💓 learned how, when and why to eat 💓 became part of a community 💓 ditched the diet mindset I had 3 years and 70 pounds later I have given myself back ☑️Time ☑️Dollars ☑️Self-confidence ☑️Health ☑️Freedom I hope My Story knocks on a familiar door for you because I would like to help you unlock it, open it and get rid of those hidden skeletons that weigh you down physically and mentally. I will help you every step of the way, every week, every pound, every victory, every struggle ... It’s time to give YOU back to yourself- are you ready ? Let’s connect. #healthcoach #coachLinda #mybodymytemple

As we look to #restore our lives to BP (before pandemic), I can’t help but wonder if God has us just where we’re meant to be; bringing us back to simpler times. Like game pieces, we were all sent back to START! Forced to see the world through eyes not our own and walk in the shoes of another. Can we see the loneliness of the elderly or single? Feel the overwhelm of the working mom? Understand the stress of our spouse’s job? By its very definition, restore means to “bring back to its original state”. Are we missing what God wants us to experience? #hopewriterlife #restore
