Yoga4Hockey and Emotional Intelligence

I was recently asked to write a guest article for Yoga4Hockey on Instagram. They connected with me when they came across this photo of the TC North Stars during one of my yoga classes at Center Ice. I was excited to write about my experience with yoga and hockey. But my heart connected me to instead focusing on why yoga is so great for hockey! I immediately reflected on so many benefits yoga has for an athlete... but there is one aspect that provides a player with a leading edge.

Functional Exercise

no movement = death

movement = life!!

We all know exercise is key for a healthy thriving body, but what type of exercise should we do?

Honestly, I recommend doing whatever exercise you love [walking, running, biking, swimming, weight lifting, yoga, etc.] BUT, I strongly believe one thing everyone needs to fit into their weekly routine is a couple days of functional exercise!

On being Plant Based/Vegan

I challenge others to not shut down vegans with comments like - "Oh my, I could never be vegan." - "I couldn't live without cheese." - "I need my protein." - "Oh that must be difficult." - "Wow, then what can you eat?" Instead just look at me as I am. A human who eats what she likes, a woman who knows the food she chooses to eat fuel her cells, and make her thrive.

Pain Killers vs. Actually Addressing the Pain

A few days ago, My dog Hunny, a 6-year-old, 80lb, Golden Doodle, with the happiest little personality you've ever seen, became drastically sad, short of breath, increased blood pressure & muscle spasms on her left side. I was concerned and rushed her to the veterinary hospital.

Add these foods to enjoy more of the benefits of Sunshine!

Sunshine is extremely important for an overall healthy body! Sunlight is thought to increase the brain’s release of serotonin, which is associated with boosting moods, creating a sense of calm & engaging a better ability to focus. Without enough sunlight, a person’s serotonin levels can dip low, and low serotonin can lead to feelings of stress and anxiety.

"Is there more to life?"

Many times, actually probably constantly, in the past 12 years my mind was concerned with the idea that there was more to life. I always thought I was missing something. I felt I did not fully understand life, and everyone else around me did. I let this idea constantly bug me, but I also let it drive me to discover what I was missing.

<3U: 2 of 3

Mission! Through Nutritional Therapy, Yoga & Essential Oils, I aim to give empowerment to others. I feel this empowerment derives from knowing the body & it's functions, being one’s best self, & loving who one is every step of the way. 

I will share the knowledge I have with others, individually and in large class groups. So far, there are three main areas I want to focus on.

<3U : 1 of 3

I want to share with females, and the world for that matter, to never let anyone tell you to be less than who you are. To always know you are supposed to love who you are as God loves who each one of us are.

“Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.” 1 John 4:8
