From Dream Time to Real Time

An exercise I often do to help make my dreams a reality is to brain dump how I would like to be and what I would like to have and do.  A few years ago I did this exercise with a friend and we said we’d be the 'Dream Keepers' for each other.

Recently I had a look at what I’d written and at first I just looked at all the ‘stuff’ I hadn’t done.  Umm, not very inspiring!  I think it’s all too easy to focus on the negative at first.  To remedy this I went through and highlighted all the things I had achieved, quite a lot as it turned out and that made me feel very good indeed!  I now know that I make 'dream time' into 'real time', which makes a difference because instead of just wishing for things to change, I know I have the power, and take the necessary action, to change my life for the better.

Recipe for Energy
Write down how you would like your life to be.
Share your dreams with someone (optional but very powerful).
Date it.
Make a note to look at it in, for example, a year’s time.  You choose the time frame that feels right for you.

Happy energy making!

Bouncing To Energy!

I’m on a journey to experience the best energy yet!  I exercise regularly so I know what it feels like to have energy from moving my body.  However, I’ve always told myself that if I want to exercise I need to go outside the home.  And that has worked for me.  I’ve joined gyms and met friends at parks and swimming pools as well as joined team sports such as rowing and netball.  But the time has come to challenge this belief because I want exercise to be something I do wherever I want to be.  So this week sees the arrival of a new family member – a rebounder!  Yes I plan to bounce my way to more energy!

I have always held off in the past from buying any kind of exercise equipment that can be used in the home.  I have memories of a static bike my parents had and once the novelty wore off it got moved further and further out of sight until it eventually made it’s final journey to the back of the garage.  It looked so forlorn providing a home to many species of bugs.  One time I even bought a yoga DVD and a yoga mat but the DVD became an expert dust collector and the mat propped something up!

But why a rebounder.  Well I like the fact it gets my heart pumping in a short space of time and it supports my bodyweight.  I like the idea of having a quick recharge, get the energy flowing, if I’ve been sitting at my desk too long.  Anyway I’m more concerned with changing a belief right now as well as a pattern of not exercising in my home.  I’m interested to see what happens.
